A rebuke to Nazi organizations for interfering with Jews in commerce was administered yesterday by Reichs Minister of Economics Dr. Hjalmar Schacht addressing the Berlin Chamber of Economics.
Dr. Schacht complained that too many Nazi organizations were interfering in the nation’s commercial activities.
“I wish to appeal urgently to all local organizations,” he said, “to put their weakness for politics in the background and to consider the necessities of the country as well as the importance of strengthening our financial system with prestige.”
