...Elijah's more fanciful doctrines: the white man, especially the Jew, keeps the black man weakened by selling him the flesh of swine...
...well knows, the marriage was performed by a fake J.P., the bogus rite having been staged by Carlson himself, a racketeer with a clipped, cultured accent and a Byronic lip twist, who quoted Nietzsche, drank sherry and drove caddish foreign cars. About the only nice thing about this suave swine was that he would occasionally, in a contemptuous Freudian way, massage the nape of his socialite mother's neck with slender, manicured hands.

Vandals scrawled "Death to the Jews" in red paint on park benches in Braunschweig, and in Rheydt the word "Swine" was scratched on a Jew's shopwindow. In the Ruhr, and to the north near Hamburg, swastikas and "Heil Hitlers" appeared on walls...
