The Red Flag was a communist Austrian daily newspaper that appeared between 1919 and 1939 in Paris , Vienna , Prague and Brno . It came out four to six times a week and had the secondary title Central Organ of the Communist Party of Austria (Section of the Communist International) . In 1921 Der Kommunistische Landbote went up in Die Rote Fahne , which had previously appeared independently for a few months. The Red Flag included the newspaper Der Rote Stern as a supplement . The newspaper's forerunners were Der Weckruf (November 1918 to January 1919) and The Social Revolution (January to July 1919) and, from 1945, the successor to the Austrian People's Voice .

The left-leaning newspaper was from March to July 1933, prior censorship , then finally for a few days under stricter obligation to submit until July 10, 1933 colportage ban was occupied. The issues from July 1933 onwards therefore appeared illegally and only at irregular intervals in Czechoslovakia , Belgium and France.
