Ludendorff Angry Because
President Said Rights Will
Not Be Infringed.

VIENNA.—(J. T. A.) — General
Emil Sommer, famous war time
Jewish general, has taken over the
leadeiship of the Jewish Self De-
fense in Austria in connection with
his election as chief of the Union
of Jewish Soldiers.
The Union held its first organ-
izing meeting today with the par-
ticipation of more than a thou-
sand delegates, representing Jew-
ish Veterans Unions.
General Sommers considers that
one of the major undertakings of
the organization will be to protect
the life and property of the Jews
against the anti-Semites.
Two sons of General Sommers
are enrolled as members of the
Jewish Self Defense.

• BERLIN.—(J. T A.) — Presi-

scored by General Eric von Lu-

commander, who since the conclu-
sion of the war has achieved noto-
riety as an anti-Semite, in a
signed article in his organ, Volk-
swede, for expressing opposition
to any limitation of the political
and religious rights of the Jews
in Germany.
General von Ludendorff criti-
cizes the President for offering
such assurances to the Jews while
complaints addressed to him by
patriotic German organibations,
he alleges, have been ignored.

The Nationalist leader stated:
"I actually originate from Jews,

The statement by Deusterberg
comes after an attack upon him

he Is denounced as being descend-

It is learned that the father of
Duesterberg was named Abraham
