Nazi newspapers reaching here today from Poland report that there are still more than 100,000 Jews in the city of Lwow, the Nazi-held capital of Eastern Galicia. They also report that 40,000 retail Jewish shops “have disappeared” in Lodz since the city was occupied by Germany.
Reporting that the Jewish population of Lwow today numbers 104,126 persons, the Krakiwski Visti, a Nazi paper in the Ukrainian language published in Cracow, says that the Jews constitute a third of the entire population of the city. The number of Jewish stores liquidated in Lodz “demonstrates the great extent to which trade in Lodz was controlled by Jews,” the Nazi newspaper Donau Zeitung states.
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.
