The Luxembourger Wort, the largest paper in Luxembourg, has again taken to publishing anti-Semitic articles, this time calling for a boycott against Jewish shops.

Luxembourg money should primarily go to the old-established business people in the Duchy and not to those immigrant aliens who have built up their big shops on the best street corners of Luxembourg, the paper writes.

Anti-Semitic leaflets, completely in the spirit of the Third Reich, inciting against the Jewish section of the population, are being distributed in the elections at Forbach. The Jewish electors have protested strongly against this activity. Jews have been completely eliminated from the lists of candidates of all the parties from this town, where until recently the Mayor, the late Felix Barth, was a Jew.
