Karl Lueger
Karl Lueger (1844-1910) was the mayor of Vienna from 1897 to 1910 and led the Christian Social Party[?] which took political power from the Austrian Liberals[?] in Vienna and combatted the Social Democrats. A faction in the Austrian parliament[?], the Christian Social Party won Vienna city council in 1895 and subsequently helped Lueger win mayoralty. After three refusals, Kaiser Franz Joseph[?] finally sanctioned his election in 1897.
Known for his anti-semitism, Lueger was credited by Adolf Hitler with the latter's more virulent form of anti-semitism.
