With the economic structure of Nazi-dominated Bulgaria badly weakened by the anti-Jewish laws, the Bulgarian Government has been compelled to revise the restrictions forbidding export firms to employ Jews, it is reported today in the Svenska Dagbladet, a Swedish newspaper.
These firms, the paper reports, have now been notified by the Bulgarian authorities that they are permitted to retain Jewish employees until January 1, 1945. A third of Bulgaria’s production normally is exported. However, the amount of exports has dropped greatly due to the fact that Bulgarian firms dealing with foreign countries had been ordered to dismiss Jewish members of their staff.
