This file contains newspaper clips, reports and bulletins published by the Welt-Dienst in Erfurt, Germany. The documents are published in German, and French between 1938 and 1940. The Welt-Dienst was an anti-Semitic Newspaper, published twice a month in Germany and in several other countries as well as in 8 different languages. The news bureau was founded in 1933 by Ulrich Fleischhauer in Erfurt and a the magazine of the same name was published first in December 1933 by Fleischhauers U. Bodung-Verlag . The editors of the magazine also organized international anti-Semitic congresses and Fleischhauer also appeared as an expert in the Bern trail. From 1937 the magazine came under the influence of Alfred Rosenberg , the leading ideologist of the NSDAP. Under the direction of Rosenberg, the distribution increased to 21 languages. In 1939, the editors moved to Frankfurt am Main in the same building as the newly founded institute for the study of the 'Jewish question' and received within the office Rosenberg the designation"Office for Jewish and Masonic question". On July 15th, 1939, the Welt-Dinest, under the control of Alfred Schirmer, published the announcement that the World Service Center will be relocated to Frankfurt am Main on 1st of August 1939. The city has been selected because it has a good infrastructure and it is easy to reach for visitors and friends. Frankfurt also offers good research, expansion and employment opportunities. Another reason, as written in the flyer, is that Frankfurt am Main had a big Jewish community and as a sign that Jewish world power in Germany is completely banned, the Welt-Dienst is suppose to be there as a lucky symbol. Also informations about Jews in Poland and England are given. Under the headline of 'why does Judaism protect Poland?'; 'How Judaism prepares war in England'; 'In France, Judas rules' and 'How the Jewish war was staged', anti-Semitic propaganda is published and distributed.
