Plans for reconstituting the prewar German National Peoples Party, considered a reservoir of right-wing and other conservative elements in West Germany, were revealed here today.
The party’s “preparatory commission” today confirmed it had sent out notices to its leading cadres, calling for a national convention to be held next Sunday to revive the organization. An influential political grouping during the Weimar Republic, the old German National Peoples Party was instrumental in bringing Hitler to power in 1933.
The police chief of Weinheinz who stated that not enough Jews had been killed by Hitler was today declared not guilty of making anti-Semitic remarks, by a court at Weinheim, in the State of Baden.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
