The provisional banning of the American film, “Every Woman’s Man,” starring Max Baer, Jewish playwright prize fighter, which was shown in the United States under the title “The Prize Fighter and the Lady,” was made permanent today by the Nazi authorities.
The Nazis prohibited the showing of the picture anywhere in Germany on the ground that Baer is Jewish.
The ban is in line with the policy, announced some time ago by Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels, forbidding the showing in Germany of films starring Jewish actors and also films made by Jewish companies.
Nazi storm troopers have been forbidden to attend cinema houses owned by Jews or which show films with Jewish actors, even when wearing civilian clothes.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
