the Jewish religion and the Jewish people.
All representations of Jewish leaders, who request that steps be taken to suppress the agitation against the Jews, have proved ineffective.
The Nazi press continues to threaten the extermination of the Jews as revenge for their alleged responsibility for political murders and the rise in the prices of food.
A sinister connection is seen in some circles between the silence of the Nazi government leaders and the open and ferocious anti-Jewish incitement of the Nazi press organs. Should the threats of the Nazi press become effective and a terrible outburst against the Jews ensue, the Nazi government leaders will be able to disclaim responsibility for the occurrences.
The position is particularly tragic for the Jewish population in the provinces where they are exposed to constant threats and dangers, surrounded as they are by hostile non-Jewish groups, who far outnumber them.
Even non-Nazi German leaders maintain silence with regard to the Jewish question, which is regarded as meaning complete resignation to the fate which threatens the Jews, the observer stated.
Ostensibly, he declared, the terrorization of the Jews is today no greater than in the period before Adolph Hitler became Chancellor of Germany. Actually, however, there has been a wholesale expulsion of Jews from offices, and similar boycott acts, on the pretext that the affected persons are Marxists, and their ouster therefor has had constitutional sanction.
