The Bulgarian newspaper “Dnevnik” reaching here today reports that Jewish shareholders have been automatically deprived of claims to any mining rights they hitherto possessed.

A report from Sofia, capital of Bulgaria, states that several thousand Bulgarian Jews who were sent as forced labor to construct roads, have been ordered to wear yellow armlets twelve centimeters wide in order to be easily distinguished by the Nazi supervisors who are in charge of the road building work.
