Nazi newspapers in the Bohemia-Moravia Protectorate are urging the Nazi administration there to “take a leaf from the book of the Nazi administration in Poland” in their handling of the Jews in the Protectorate.
The papers announce that “radical steps” will be taken with regard to Jewish enterprises turned over to “Aryan” employes or servants instead of to “real Aryan hands.” The steps apparently will be aimed at those enterprises turned over to Czechs and will result in their transfer to Germans.
Meanwhile, Slovakian advices said the German party in Bratislava is insisting that the Slovakian Government “solve the Jewish problem as quickly as possible.” As a result of this pressure, it was learned, the Government has decided to speed up its original two-year plan for the “aryanization” of all Jewish enterprises in Slovakia.
