Comments

The Deutschösterreichischer Schutzverein Antisemitenbund was founded in 1919 by Christian Social Party politician Anton Jerzabek. Speakers for the group such as Walter Riehl, Josef Ursin, Anton Orel, and Leopold Kunschak demanded expulsion of Jews who arrived in Austria after 1914, registering land ownership for Jews in Vienna, and in Tyrol, extreme anti-Semitic measures such as professional bans and bans on trade and land ownership. Printed organ was Der Eiserne Besen ("The Iron Broom"), printed from 1921-1932 and seen as a forerunner of the Nazi publication Der Stürmer. The Antisemitenbund continued until the Anschluss in 1938 at which time it was dissolved and merged into the NSDAP.
