The inner enemies. according to him,
are communism, pacifism, Marxism,

Berlin-Jewish veterans of the
World War. especially those who are
members of the Jewish Front Soldiers
Associations have organized to defend
themselves and other Jews against
such attacks as marked the pogrom in
the German Capital commencing Mon
day.
Aware of the danger to Jewish life
tiOnalist agitation against Jews. jew
ish war veterans had long decided to
prepare to resist the threatened at
tack. On Monday they were caught
unawares and it was not before night
fall that groups of the ex-service men
were formed to strike back. A sec
tion of the veterans opposed separate
action in defence of the Jews on the
ground that it was the business of the
Reich Government to protect all citi-
zens. But it is understood that even
this section has been won over to the
view that the menace of pogrcms is
too real.
Violent food riots and plundering Of
clothing and other shops continued dur
ing the night despite apparent efforts
to check them. 1t is estimated that at
least thousand food and clothing
establishments, mostly those owned by
Jews. have been robbed in the last two
days.
The Jewish sections of the city
which were the scenes of pogrom ac-
tivities Monday afternoon and night
are mournfully quiet. Cordons of po-
lice have been drawn around it. For
fear that the shops, although closed,
may still prove temptation to the

Munich.-Never in the history Of
Germany has the peril of pogroms
hung over the heads of the Jewish pop
ulaticn as II does now. Jewish blood
shed may be expected any day in Ba-
varia. The country swarms with uni
formed and armed HakenkreuZler, who
are openly fraternizing with the army
and police. In the event of trouble,
the police and military powers would
probably side with the trouble-makers.

having been suppressed.
Serious disorders have occurred not
only in Nuremberg, where four Jews
were fatally wounded, but at Kis-
singer, Bamberg, Kronach, and right
here in Munich.
In their anti-Jewish campaign, Hit
lerists are making use of extremist
measures in tanning the anti-Jewish
flame with the aid of the notorious ri
tual murder libel. At the Hitler head
quarters a picture of Jews in the act
of committing ritual murder upon n
naked Christian girl is displayed. and
Fascist leaders declare they are pre-
pared to prove the Jewish practice of
! ritual murder.
Those who looked for Improvement
in the situation in consequence of the
reported estrangement between Dictn-
tor Won Kahr and Hitler are doomed
to disappointment. Won Kahr has de,
clared there are no differences between
him and the Fascist leader, as both
are pursuing the same aim through

No systematic attempt is to be made
to demolish any of the village build

estimation Of many people. 1t imme-

food does not become garbage until it

theory, all table refuse will be kept
