The newspaper Berlingske Tidende today described the “intense suffering” of the Jews in Nazi Poland. It reports that synagogues have been burned and that the Jews have been compelled to pay compensation on the charge that they destroyed their temples themselves. Food stores, the newspaper says, have been ordered to serve Germans first, Poles next and then Jews.
