Dutch Nazis are using the fact that a Mogen Dovid, the five-pointed Jewish star, symbolizing peace, appears on a Dutch stamp, as the excuse for a new flood of anti-Semitic propaganda. The presence of the symbol on a Dutch stamp is interpreted by them as an example of the influence of international Jewry.

The Minister of the Interior, in a surprising move, today ordered limitation of the acceptance of foreign students in the Dutch universities under the pretext that there was a stream of non-Jewish and Jewish Socialist students to the institutions.

In this connection it is pointed out however, that thus far, in all, only twelve German Jewish students have applied for permission to study in the universities of Holland.
