The incorporation of Lithuania into East Prussia and the expulsion of all Jews from certain Lithuanian towns is predicted here today in the Swedish newspaper social Derokraten.

The paper reports that the Nazi authorities have started a “thorough Germanization” of Lithuania by settling Germans there, and that they are making preparations to abolish the shan autonomy which Lithuania enjoys on paper and to proclaim the country an integral part of Prussia.
