The deportation of all Jews from Rumania, shortly, is predicted in Nazi newspapers which reached here today from Germany.
Devoting renewed “attention” to the Jews in Rumania, the Nazi press states that the Rumanian Government is planning intensified anti-Jewish measures. It also reports that bread rations for Jews in Rumania were reduced as of January 1. Jews now may buy only 1,000 grams, slightly more than two pounds, of broad per week as compared to 1,750 grams allowed to them previously. Rumanian breadcards contain seven coupons, each of which is worth 225 grams. In ration cards belonging to Jews, three of the coupons have been cancelled.
