Yes, the translation is fairly accurate. The paper was a extreme-right wing weekly publication with only a few thousand readers.
What seems strange to me is the document claims to be a translation from a German paper "Deutsche National Zeitung" when in fact the German paper provides a translation of the English article. What the source of the English article was is anybody's guess.

I doubt that the story had ever been published in an English language publication, But I don't doubt that you know what you're talking about.....Sooo..... I'm forced to speculate that Walker sent Hasso Thorsen the story all typed up and Thorsen translated it for the article in the
Deutsche National Zeitung I would love to know WHY Walker told Hasso that Bobby Kennedy knew that Lee Oswald had tried to kill him and Bobby Kennedy ordered the investigation to be stopped. There isn't one tiny iota of evidence to support Walker's charge.... But I now wonder if Lee Oswald wasn't a patsy in the Walker hoax also.... There was serious bad blood between Walker and the Kennedy's ( a deep and bitter hatred) and of course Walker would have chortled with glee if he could have gotten RFK charged with interfering in an attempted murder case.
But putting the speculation aside..... The story in the German paper was effectual..... In the fact that the article opened the FBI's eyes to the possibility that Lee Oswald was the unknown sniper who had fired a bullet through Walker's window. And that article caused the FBI to go to Marina Oswald and ask her what she knew about the story that Lee had tried to shoot Walker. Prior to the publication of that story the investigators never suspected that Lee Oswald might have been involved in the Walker incident.
The investigators had the Back Yard photo and the recon photos of Walker's house that they had found among Lee Possessions, but they hadn't linked the photos to the Walker incident until the story appeared in that German paper.
P.S. Recall that the photo of the light colored 57 Chevy parked in Walkers back yard can be seen in a photo in Jesse Curry's book and the rear license plate is intact. But AFTER the FBI became aware of the significance of the photo the license plate was scratched off the photo. Obviously they didn't want us to know who owned that Chevy.... I believe that Lee Knew who owned that 57 Chevy and he realized that that person's affiliation with Walker was dynamite. That's the reason he snapped the photo.
