العنوانL'Illustre De Petit Journal (6th Aug 1933)
الوصفThis is the August 6th edition of the L’Illustre Du Petit Journal. The front page illustration depicts the Schups, ‘Brown Shirts’ in operation in Germany, 1933, accosting pedestrians and motorists and demanding to see their identification papers. The report refers to the actions as ‘general, relentless and rigorous’.
The SA ‘Brown Shirts’, officially termed Sturmabteilung (stormtroopers), were instrumental in Hitler’s rise to power. Following his appointment to Chancellor of Germany in January 1933, SA membership and activity surged. The latent frustrations and tensions built up during the Nazi party’s struggle for power overflowed into terror on the streets. SA activity was bolstered again by the burning of the Reichstag building in February and the subsequent parliamentary adoption of Hitler’s Enabling Act in March of 1933. They were an indispensible tool in creating an atmosphere of crisis, the essential conditions for Hitler’s victory over democracy in Germany.
Printed in France, the paper reveals the apprehension of observing European powers in light of German assaults on its Jewish citizens. The implementation of anti-Jewish legislation incited unrest from Jewry across the world. Anti-Nazi rallies were held in London and Paris and the League of Nations received a petition from the Comite des Delegations Juives in protest of anti-Jewish legislation effected by Nazi powers. By the time this paper went to print, there were already 30, 000 people incarcerated in German concentration camps.
