Scope and Content

The file contains newspaper cuttings, transcripts and letters regarding the Bern trial. Several newspaper cuttings from different countries and cities reporting about the Bern trial and the authenticity of the 'Protocols' are attached. Translations from Polish, Czech, English, French and Russian newspapers into German informing about the trial itself, the anti-Semitic propaganda of the Nazis and the opinions of several countries regarding the 'Jewish question and the 'Protocols' can be read. Also translations of Polish letters into German concerning articles about the 'Protocols' are contained. These letters are relating to the reports of the Bern trial and adding further informations. For example a letter from Jan Marcinczyk, which says that the given information by the Delaorix about Nilus were inaccurate and needed to be corrected. Also a transcript entiteled "the louche Protocols" by John Stuard Conning published in the 'Pressbyterian Tribune' in January 1934 can be seen. In this transcript it is explained that 'the Jewish nation is in search and how many times the adversity was follwing them to so many European countries were they never could feel save'. He also explains the modern anti-Semitism and the use of the 'Protocols' for that. It was translated and used for his own purposes by Berkeley Kositzin, who explains that John Stuard Conning must have been out of his mind to write something like that, as the Jews were the reason why so many bad things happend in the world, like the 'Russian revolution which was planned and financed by the Jews'. Further material, commens, letters and transcription based on the information and happenings presented in the Bern trial are attached.
