BERLIN (Jan. 15)
A textbook for teachers on how to teach the Jewish question in German schools has been published here, it was learned today. The author is Ernest Dobers, a professor at the Teachers’ College.
In a preface, Prof. Dobers points out that it is inadvisable to treat the Jewish question apart from other subjects, but shows how by skilful handling it can be introduced into virtually any lesson.
Prof. Dobers recommends free use of both the Volkischer Beobachter, chief Nazi organ, and the Stuormor, anti-Semitic pornographic weekly published by Julius Streichor, Germany’s high priest of anti-Semitism. He regretfully admits, however, that it is unwise to put the Streichor publication in the hands of children under fourteen.
The book quotas liberally from Nazi newspaper stories and editorials on the Jews.
A somewhat similar book has been published by Dietrich Klagges, premier of Brunswick province. Concerned with the teaching of history, the book contains anti-Semitic maxims as an outline for courses in that subject.
