The German press welcomes the outcome of the Schwartzbard trial.
The “Berlinner Tageblatt” terms the verdict of the French jury an expression of the feelings that Schwartzbard’s act of revenge is not subject to human judgment, it being the result of the spirit of the age.
The “Vossische Zeitung” declared that the Schwartzbard trial was virtually converted into a judgment of Petlura. The “Frankfurter Zeitung” brands Wilm’s anti-Semitic speech. The anti-Semitic “Deutsche Zeitung” expresses the fear that the verdict might become a “dangerous precedent.”
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.
