The file contains newspaper clippings of several newspapers in Switzerland and Germany dated on the beginning of May 1935. The collection of articles regarding the expertise of Baumgarten and Fleischhauer are for example published by these newspapers: Die Nationale Zeitung, Die Front, Neue Zuricher Zeitung, Baseler Nachrichten, Westfalische Landeszeitung, Ostjudische Zeitung, Zuricher Post, Die Stimme, Judische Rundschau, Der Angriff and others. The way in which the expertise and the trial are reported, of course, very much depends on the newspaper's own political affiliation. The right-wing extremist newspapers naturally declare Fleischhauer's expertise to be absolutely credible and understandable, whereas they do not label Baumgarten expertise as truthful. Other newspapers report on the propaganda that was carried out in the court, the disappearance of facts and evidence and the intimidation of witnesses by Fleischhauer. The experts Arthur Baumgarten declared the Protocols of the Elders of Zion as a plagiarism and a forgery produced by helpers of the tsarist Russian Okhrana and now used by the Nazis for their antisemitic propaganda.
