Pursuing its campaign against Jewish tenants in “Aryan” houses, the Reich House Owners’ Association proposes that an “Aryan clause” be inserted in the standard Leasing contracts. The paragraph would make clear that both parties to the contract were of German blood and would provide for immediate dissolution of the lease in case either party proved to have contracted falsely in this regard.
