The first French anti-Semitic propaganda film has been completed, Radio Paris announced today. Entitled “Les Corrupers,” it deals with the control allegedly wielded by Jews over the press, the stock exchange and other French institutions. It endeavors to show how Jews managed to secure leading appointments in these businesses, and how they controlled the professions. The French people’s determination “to rid themselves of the Jews” marks the film’s conclusion, the Paris broadcast stated.
