Warning was served on the Jews of Germany today by Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels that they may expect new repressive measures “should they become fresh.”
Speaking at the Sportspalast in connection with the tenth anniversary celebration of the Berlin Nazi Party, of which he is the leader, Dr. Goebbels declared:
“I have been told that the Jews are beginning to become impudent again. Should they become fresh, there are new laws in store for them. I admit that I overestimated the Jews. The are not clever, but foolish. They had better disappear quietly from Germany.”
