I will just refer to one or two more of them. Here is one on 23 November 1935, Page 2, the title, “The Camouflaged Benjamin—Jewish Cultural Bolshevism in German Music.” Here is one of 2 January 1937, Page 6—a hideous-looking picture—the title being “Romania to the Jews?” I give the final quotation, the last one, 3 February 1939, Page 14, the title being “Friends of World Jewry: Roosevelt and Ickes.”
The impressive thing about all these articles is the fact that it was not intended that the philosophies expressed in them should be confined to members of the SA; on the contrary, the plan was to educate the members of the SA with this iniquitous philosophy, and for the SA in turn to be employed for its dissemination into the minds of the German people. This fact is demonstrated in the introduction to a series of anti-Jewish articles in the paper of 5 December 1936, at Page 6. I will just read the title. It is found on Page 28 of the same document and the title is as follows: “Gravediggers of World Culture.” Also on that same Page, 28, I quote this statement:
“We suggest that the comrades especially take notice of this series of articles and see that they are further circulated.”
In addition, intensive campaigns were conducted to persuade the public to purchase and read Der SA-Mann and the various issues were posted in public places so that the general public might read them. Der SA-Mann itself contained several photographs which show particular issues posted upon street bulletin boards; and there are several photographs showing advertising displays, one of which, for example, reads as follows—this is in the issue of 31 October 1936: “Der SA-Mann belongs in every house, every hotel, every inn, every waiting room, and every store.” Also in the issue of 24 August 1935, at Page 3, there was a group picture of SA men on trucks and in front of the trucks were large signs, one of which read, “Read Der Stürmer and you will know the Jew.” On the same page of the publication I mentioned there is a photograph of what appears to be a public rally, at which there is displayed a large poster reading, “He who knows the Jew, knows the devil!”
THE PRESIDENT: Colonel Storey, the Tribunal expressed their view yesterday that they did not desire to hear cumulative evidence. Isn’t this rather cumulative?
COL. STOREY: I agree with Your Honor that possibly it is. I am trying to draw the line on it. I will omit the rest of them.
Now we will pass to the final phase of the function of the SA in the conspiracy.
THE PRESIDENT: Perhaps we had better adjourn now for 10 minutes.
[A recess was taken.]
COL. STOREY: If Your Honor pleases, I have just started into the function of the SA in the conspiracy, that of its participation in the program for preparation for warfare.
