Shopkeepers and druggists of Hamburg, where automatic telephones are being installed, have been the recipients of questionnaires asking them to state whether they are Aryans. Public telephones will be withdrawn from all non-Aryans by the telephone company which is owned and operated by the Nazi government.

The Nazi government which has punished severely attempts to dismiss employees especially by Jewish employers has been compelled to grant concessions to the Jewish dentists who have been thrown out of all government jobs and have been discriminated against by the Nazis. These dentists have been permitted by the authorities to dismiss their assistants, nurses and clerks without notice and similarly they have been allowed to vacate business premises without notice and without paying any of the fines usually imposed in such cases.
