Following the order prohibiting the sale of tobacco to Jews, the Official Gazette of the Czech Protectorate today published an order forbidding “Aryans” to give cigarettes and other tobacco products to any person wearing the yellow Mogen David.
Another order declares that Jews still living in Prague may use only one post office, and only during certain hours. Similar regulations are announced for all Protectorate cities having more than one post office. In towns where there is only one post office, Jews may enter only during specified hours.
