A new attempt to rally all Germans in the defense of Hitlerism, was made here yesterday by Der Deutsche, official organ of the Nazi Labor Front, which published an utterly unbelievable story of an alleged plot against the Hitler regime by representatives of “international Jewry”, “Soviet Jews” and “international Masons.”
According to Der Deutsche, the plotters are Maxim Litvinoff, Russian Foreign Minister; Leon Trotzky, exiled Soviet leader; Andre Tardieu, former French Premier and Bernard M. Baruch, American financier.
The basis for this alleged plot was the presence of all the men named above in France at one time. The fact that they were in widely separated parts of the country does not seem to bother that Nazi paper, which talks of a secret meeting between them in which the anti-German plot was hatched.
No details of the alleged plot were revealed by Der Deutsche, the mere presence of the men being regarded as conclusive proof that a combination has been formed by the Jews and the Soviets to take advantage of the increased world chaos and to do Germany harm.
