Local Jewish merchants and manufacturers have rejected the proposal recently made them by the Sao Paulo branch of a German firm, which offered to sell them its goods at a reduction of twenty-five percent. The difference, according to the proposition, was to be paid by the German government as indemnity for losses incurred as a result of the boycott on Germany goods abroad. Actually, no boycott has been declared here, but German goods and building materials are not being bought.
Hitler’s decree forbidding the importation into Germany of goods from tropical countries will seriously affect the fruit trade recently developed between Brazil and Germany. On this ground a number of newspapers are urging that the government negotiate with Germany in an effort to keep that country a market for Brazilian oranges. Such a procedure, the newspapers assert, would be justified because Germans have lived in Brazil for a number of years.
