The Reichsvertretung der Deutschen Juden, the All-German Jewish representative body, in a proclamation yesterday urged Jews to vote in the affirmative on the question of the approval of the Hitler foreign policy in the election to be held on November 12. no other course—spells danger for them since refraining from voting would label them as enemies of the present government.
