The Nazis are attempting to break the international boycott front by creating Anglo-German chambers of commerce in Great Britain and Ireland and inviting all firms, including Jewish concerns, to participate in a big trade scheme with Germany, The London Daily Herald revealed today. The plan has the approval of the German Ambassador, Herr Leopold von Hoesch, it was stated.

At the same time The Daily Herald printed a warning by the Jewish Representative Council, Anglo-Jewish boycott body, urging Jewish firms not to break the boycott front.

The warning cited the fact that even the Board of Deputies of British Jews, long opposed to the boycott, is now on record as favoring it.
