Hate Campaign Pushed Despite Schmitt’s Orders

–Alfred Witte, district leader of the Hago, Nazi organization for fighting Jews in trade and industry, today addressed a meeting of Nazi traders in Mehringonmosel, which is located near the Saar Basin, with the declaration: “I have laid low several Jews in Trier. Other Jews will follow them. We will not rest until the last Jew is kicked out of Germany.” Trier is a town with more than 50,000 population near the French border and the Saar Basin. The slogan for the meeting suggested by Witte, “Don’t Buy From Jews,” was adopted by the audience of Nazi traders.

Many such meetings are taking place in the provincial centers in Germany despite repeated orders from Reich Minister of Economics and Trade, Dr. Kurt Schmitt, not to interfere with Jews in trade. Even the orders issued personally by Chancellor Hitler to the Nazi governors of the various states not to allow local campaigns against the Jews are being disregarded by local Nazi organizations throughout Germany who are pushing the boycott against the Jews.

“EX-LAWYERS” BANNED

Deutsche Justitz, official organ of the Reich Ministry of Justice, today declared that the term “ex-lawyer” must no longer be used by Jewish lawyers ousted from practice under the terms of the “Aryan clause.” The object of the Reich government, the paper declared, is to prevent Jews from practicing as lawyers, pointing out that for a number of Jews to call themselves “ex-lawyers” is give the impression that they are still trying to do business. The term “ex-lawyer” must no longer be used, the official paper said.

Unknown vandals desecrated thirty graves in the Jewish cemetery at Kettwig von der Brucke, which is situated near Dusseldorf. The local Jewish community offered a reward for the apprehension of the vandals.
