Nazi uneasiness over Premier Churchill’s conference with the President of Turkey is reflected today by the Voelkischer Beobachter, Hitler’s own newspaper, in an article which asks Bulgaria why Jews who were ordered sometime ago to evacuate territory on the Bulgar-Turkish frontier. Some have not yet done so.

At the same time the Nazi paper reports that Jacob Kohn, a Jewish leader in Bulgaria, and other noted Bulgarian Jews were arrested following the discovery by the Bulgarian police of an organization smuggling Jews out of Bulgaria into neighboring countries.
