The Central office established by the Reich Government to handle Jewish emigration will begin operation on Monday, it was announced. From that date forward all German Jews seeking to leave the country will have to address their petitions to the central office. The announcement was published by the Judisches Nachrichtenblatt, the paper which has replaced all former Jewish newspapers.
(The Associated Press reported from London that the police had given orders to the Jewish community, effective Monday, to produce daily the names of 100 Jews who will then receive two weeks’ notice to leave the country. The system may be applied throughout the country if successful, the dispatch said. The A.P. was the only agency to report this order. Havas said that informed circles in London had no knowledge of it.)
