Jewish stores remained closed today, the second day after plebiscite results were announced. Not a single Jewish businessman resumed his business, despite the fact that all other stores in Saarbruecken were open as usual.
With the schools celebrating the return of the Saar to Germany, Jewish parents refrained from sending children to their classes today.
No cases of physical violence against Jews in Saarbruecken have been registered so far, but pressure is being exercised upon the Jewish population to leave the Saar as early as possible.
SEEK CASH TO LEAVE
Jewish businessmen were busy winding up their affairs and offering their property to non-Jews for insignificant sums. The Jewish population is in great haste to liquidate its belongings and to realize as much ready cash as possible, since later, when the Saar will officially have been turned over to the Nazis, the inhabitants will be forbidden to take any money abroad with them.
