An order issued yesterday by the Hungarian authorities in Budapest prohibits Jews from selling newspapers and orders all Jewish news-dealers to return their licenses, the Berlin correspondent of the, Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet reported today. The order deprives 300 Jewish families of their livelihood.
Reports reaching here from Hungary reveal that anti-German sentiments are growing among the Hungarian people. Illegal leaflets stating that the Hungarians do not trust the Germans are being spread in Bucharest. The leaflets charge the Germans with enslaving Hungary economically by scheming to take over Jewish firms and by exploiting the “Jewish Law” in Hungary for the benefit of Germans. At the same time it was reported here today from Slovakia that the Hungarians there have organized a secret anti-Nazi youth organization and that three of the organizers, including two Hungarian girls, were arrested.
