The following two blurbs were included in the Jewish Daily News on 15 November 1923. The Beer Hall Putsch happened on November 8th and 9th. Also called the Munich Putsch, this failed coup by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis put Hitler on the front page of newspapers for the first time. Hitler would be convicted of treason and served 9 months of his 5-year sentence. He would be released 20 December 1924 - a bit more than one year after these two blurbs were published in The Tageblatt's English Department of the Jewish Daily News.

People in the US saw Hitler as a problem, but they did could not fully grasp where this was going in 1923.

Munich - The downfall of the Ludendorff-Hitler putsch has not affected favorably the situation of the Jews of Bavaria who are in greater panic than ever because of the expulsion decree ruthlessly applied in the case of so-called "aliens."

Vienna - That an anti-Semitic putsch in Vienna was planned to synchronize with the Hitler-Ludendorff putsch in Munich has been disclosed following the arrest here of several ringleaders involved in a general Fascisti plot aimed at the Governments of Austria and of Hungary as well as that of Berlin.
