“Hang the Jews”, or “shoot the Jews”, is the slogan heard most frequently now at Hitlerist meetings, the Central Union of German Citizens of the Jewish Faith states in a warning which it has issued here, declaring that it has learnt from good sources that in order to consider what to do to quell the growing disaffection among the Hitlerist followers, especially the storm troops, because of the withdrawal of the Hitlerist party from the Reichstag, the Hitlerist leaders have held a Conference at Munich, with Hitler in the chair, at which it was decided to divert attention from the general political situation by whipping up a big antisemitic campaign.
After the Reichstag elections of last September, Hitler appeared before the foreign world as a diplomat and an apostle of law and order, but now that the hopes of the Hitlerists to govern the country have vanished, the Central Union says, the masses are to be fed on antisemitic propaganda.
