“Humane annihilation of the Jews” is the anomaly quoted as the object of Adolf Hitler in his Jewish persecutions, according to the Rev. Dr. David Bryn-Jones, pastor of the Trinity Baptist Church, who addressed a meeting of the Talmud Torah Society here last week.
Assailing the Nazi program in a scathing attack and declaring that reports from Germany “are hardly exaggerated”, Dr. Bryn-Jones said with emotion, “Just how Hitler proposes to accomplish this is not known, but he is determined to do it, in a terrible contradiction to the precepts of twentieth century civilization.”
The speaker who has just returned from a visit to Germany made the remark that “the Hitler regime is bent upon the absolute elimination of the Jewish population.”
“It was a shock to me,” he said, “to learn first-hand of the cold-blooded, callous policy of the present German government toward its citizens of Jewish descent. A leader in the Hitler administration told me that its purpose was the humane annihilation of the Jewish people in Germany.”
All of the ills of Europe are the direct result of Jewish machinations, Dr. Bryn-Jones quoted the Nazi chief as saying. The Nazi program was drafted in 1921 and emphasized its plank which condemns Jewry to damnation, said Dr. Bryn-Jones who voiced his bitter disapproval of the Nazi program, but said he had no remedy to suggest.
