Jewish concerts, lectures and public meetings may henceforth be held only in Jewish buildings, the authorities have announced. Jewish organizations are therefore compelled to arrange theatrical and social functions in buildings belonging to the International Order B’nai B’rith or the Jewish Culture League.

Jews will be barred completely and “Aryans” will be admitted without charge to the nation’s cinema theatres on March 7, National Film Day, it was announced.

At the first annual convention of film workers, actors and directors opened here, Prof. Lehmich, president of the Reich Film Chamber, announced that not a single Jew was left in the picture industry in Germany.
