A search of the Zionist offices here as well as of the house of Kurt Blumenfeld, President of the German Zionist Federation, was carried out last night by uniformed Nazis.
An official communique issued by the Zionist Federation for the purpose of forestalling inaccurate reports, describes the incident in the following words: “On Sunday evening uniformed members of Nazi Storm Detachments searched the premises of the Zionist Federation of Germany, as well as the house of the President of the Federation. Steps which were immediately taken by the Federation revealed that the search was not authorized by the authorities. The authorities have given assurances that care will be taken to prevent recurrence of such an incident in the future.” The communique concludes by saying “our organization continues its work undisturbed.”
