of which will he located in COnH"'tt-

''volkischen BeObachter," Hans q.
Muller Judge Berthold Timendorfer
Of Berlin. the President of the
R'nai Birth of Germany. the plaintiff
in the case. before the highest court Of
Munich, charged Herr Muller with

England and France. of having melted
the last war against Germany.
Among the witnesses appeared coun-
sellOr Jacob Goldschmidt, former pres

showed that the B'nai Birth was al

the royal holidays. He read the or

Since the defendant, Herr Hans q.
