Julius Streicher, Germany’s chief anti-Semite, has issued a special warning to delegates to the sixth national conclave of the National Socialist Labor Party, which opened here tonight, not to buy from Jewish storekeepers.

His agents are selling special badges to “Aryan” shopkeepers to prevent purchases from Jews by mistake.

In connection with the congress, Streicher has issued a special edition of his anti-Jewish newspaper, Der Stuermer, rivalling the recent ritual murder number in vulgarity and the extent of the charges contained in it.

The congress, which opened tonight in the Town Hall with Reichsfuehrer Hitler and his staff receiving the city’s official welcome, is expected to pass measures disenfranchising German Jews

and fix their status in some form of second-class citizenship.

The sessions will end Monday with a review of 16,000 members of the new German army, navy and air forces. At the conclusion, Hitler will deliver the key speech of the congress.

The conclave has been proclaimed as “the Congress of Freedom.”

More than 800,000 persons are in Nuremberg in connection with the congress, including storm troops, visitors, journalists and foreign diplomatic officials.

Proceedings are being broadcast by twenty radio stations. Reichsfuehrer Hitler himself is scheduled to make four or five addresses.
