The regulations prohibiting certain unfair trade practicesin business competition between “Aryan” and “non-Aryan” firms in Germany may now be abolished as a result of a verdict issued today by the Supreme Court of the Reich.
The verdict states that in view of the anti-Nazi boycott abroad and also because of the fact that many countries have excluded German goods from their imports, it will no longer be considered unfair if “Aryan” firms advertise that their competitors are “foreigners.”
The decision of the court will hit not only Jewish firms but also firms controlled in Germany by foreign owners, no matter whether these owners are Jews or non-Jews.

The local Nazi press in Neu-Stettin warns local members of the Nazi party that “Nazis should under no circumstances ever say that there are decent Jews.” One of the papers protests because the Jews are still permitted to maintain a synagogue in the heart of the Jewdeck, near Ratzebuhr.
