Intensification of anti-Jewish measures is reported here today from Germany and Nazi-occupied territories. In Germany, Jews were informed that their ration cards for canned vegetables are no longer valid. In Prague, the Ministry of Commerce announced that the employment of Jewish apprentices in commercial establishments and in artisan shops is no longer permitted. In Holland an order was issued prohibiting Jews to continue their profession as photographers. Meanwhile, in Bulgaria the Government announced the confiscation of 500,000 levas from five Jews in Sofia under the pretext that they did not declare the full value of their property to the authorities under the law requiring Jews to do so.
At the same time it was reported that in Poland a ghetto for Jews was established this week in the town of Krasnik near Lublin. In Norway the Ministry of Justice barred Jewish lawyers from pleading in the courts. Similar action is expected to take place in regard to Jewish doctors.
