The "Alt-Wandervögel" who chose to remain claimed to represent the tradition of Fischer, by refusing any compromise with the adult world. By 1914, they numbered 4,400 adherents, and 6,000 "Scholaren". While reminding the "German nature of the Wandervogel", they let each group decide on the question of Jewish membership, like the WVEV. By 1912 however, a Jewish girl was refused membership in Zittau because, it was argued, the Wandervogel was a "German movement" that had no use for Jew. One Wandervogel newspaper, "Führer Zeitung", asserted that "the Wandervogel is neither a depository for old boots formerly worn by flat-footed and stinking of garlic nor is it an object of speculation for Jewish enterprises." The readings of Paul de Lagarde, Julius Langbehn, and Houston Stewart Chamberlain were also standard among Wandervögel.
