The perversion which has always been a major German failing was now exploited and stimulated by Jewish caterers who, while seldom sharing such tastes, did not hesitate to turn them to their profit . The book-stalls โ for Berlin in those days was the pornographic Mecca of Europe โ made no disguise of the matter. Mr. Mowrer gives a list of titles noted in the window of a Berlin book-store :
The Witches' Love Kettle. Eroticism in Photography. Sexual Errors. Flagellanism and Jesuit Confessions. The Labyrinth of Eroticism. Sadism and Masochism. The Whip in Sexuality. Sappho and Lesbos. The Cruel Female. Massage Institutes (for adults only). A magazine, The Third Sex. The Venal Female. Venal Love among Civilised Peoples . Places of Prostitution in Berlin.
โSomehowโ, he writes, โthe unhampered exhibits and sale of these works was a symbol of German democracy and the freest Republic in the world.โ
It was a symbol which decent Germans did not regard with much pride. Simpicissimus [a German magazine] put the matter in another way with a cartoon of a well-dressed pig in front of a book-stall, behind which dangled the body of a dead Cupid, lustfully eyeing the current journals : The Lust Murder , Lesbos
and The Friend.
Prominent British historian writes a fairly objective prehistory of WWII. The following year, as the war escalates, he attempts to buy up all copies of his book and destroy them. Called "anti-Semitic" because it talks about the extent of Jewish power and wealth in Weimar Germany.
