The offices of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in Paris have been completely wrecked by the Nazis, according to information reaching Vichy today.
Important files of the office had been destroyed by the staff when it evacuated Paris two days before the occupation. Soon after the German entry, Nazi agents raided the J.T.A. headquarters, demolished furniture, typewriters and other office equipment and destroyed what remained of the archives. The Nazi agents demanded to know the whereabouts of every member of the staff. The J.T.A. office in Paris had functioned about 20 years.
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.
