A preliminary statistical report released today disclosed that of the 31,000 Jews who lived in Baden-Wurtemberg in 1933, when Hitler came to power, more than 8,500 were murdered by the Nazis.
The report, prepared by the Relief Committee for Racial Persecutees, also indicated that about 21,500 were able to emigrate in time and that 701 returned after the war.
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.
