The Neue Zuercher Zeitung reported from Berlin today that the 900 Stettin Jews deported this week to the Lublin “reservation” in Nazi Poland have sent a message to President Roosevelt pleading for American visas to save them from “certain death.” The message reportedly was sent through an intermediary.
Nazi party leaders and the police, the dispatch said, are preparing for similar deportation of Jews from northern Germany and Koenigsberg, East Prussia.
