Under the slogan, “German People–German Work,” an exhibition opened here in the Hall of Honor, whose object is to show the undesirability of the Jews.
Photographs of prominent German Jews line the wall. In each case the features of the face are crossed out with red ink. Captions explain that these are undesirable because they are “un-German.”
Beneath these portraits are photographs of the Nazi leaders with approving captions stating that they are of “True German Blood.”
