For publishing a report that Italian Air Minister Italo Balbo, who lead his air armada from his native land to Chicago, is a converted Jew, the Deutsche Zeitung was closed down for three months yesterday at the personal command of Aviation Minister Hermann Wilhelm Goering. The editor of the newspaper was immediately arrested and shipped to a concentration camp.
