the Reichsfunk, the German radio system, in a “cleansing” move, it was announced today. The Reich minister for radio, Krukenberg, in an announcement today promised “complete purification” of the radio system within ten days, but it is as yet impossible to predict the total expected to be affected. So far, all the expelled Jewish employees have been replaced “by men known as fighters for the national revival and proven as qualified to conduct the radio in the spirit outlined by Dr. Goebbels.”
The Government movement for racial purification is daily assuming larger proportions. The association of medical organizations publishing a magazine devoted to furthering the public health, today changed its name and purpose to enlightenment of the people on purification of the race. The association is also establishing a new propaganda department for political and race purification purposes.
