Fresh attacks on Jews were made by students during this evening in a large number of cafes, in which a good deal of furniture was smashed. Several of the antisemitic students, too, suffered injuries at the hands of Jews, who used broken chairs and tables to defend themselves.
Several antisemitic students have been arrested by the police. Big police reinforcements are being brought up to be in readiness for fresh outbursts which are feared.
The Vienna Jewish Community has sent a sharply-worded protest to the Government, in which it blames the University authorities for encouraging the antisemitic students in their violence. The Jewish Community expresses its indignation that the Jewish students have been handed over defenceless to brutal attack, and demands that the forces of the State should provide the Jewish students with protection to enable them to frequent the University and engage in the legitimate studies for which the Universities are maintained by the funds of the entire population, Jewish and non-Jewish.
The shopkeepers are also drawing up a protest to the Government against the antisemitic disorders, which are damaging their trade.
