Organization of an anti-Jewish boycott in the Saar region along the same lines as it is conducted in Nazi Germany will be entrusted to the Saar Legion, which the Reich government has formed for invading this territory, it is stated here.

The Saar Legion is said to be twice as large as the Nazi force which was prepared to invade Austria from Bavaria.

The other functions of the Legion, which has been charged with the task of carrying out a Nazi revolution in the Saar if the January plebiscite fails to result in victory for the German cause, are declared to be the arrest and chastisement of prominent men and an immediate reorganization of the police.
