In an exclusive article, covering the whole of the front page of yesterday’s “Sunday Express,” Goebbels denies the Jewish atrocities and offers a reward for the name of a single Jew whose death can be laid to the Nazi revolution.
Of the anti-Semitic movement in Germany, he says it is caused by the fact that German laws, though a small percentage of the general population, hold an enormously large number of influential public posts. Moreover, he charges a large number of Jews being involved in corruption scandals which he alleges have exasperated the German population. Nevertheless, he declares that Jews are allowed to conduct their private business and practise their religion freely, and that no hair of anyone’s head would be touched.
The German authorities, says Goebbels, have the power to guarantee complete and absolute security to all observing the laws of the German people. The German people, he added, had other business than that of Jew-baiting.
