The German radio today warned the population of the Reich not to spend the Easter holiday playing bridge “because bridge is an Anglo-Jewish game.”

The radio announcement advised Germans to avoid Easter travel because of the shortage of trains and to spend their time listening to the radio and playing cards–but under no circumstances to play bridge.
