The Daily Telegraph reports from Rome today that staff members of the Italian state departments are being obliged to sign statements indicating their racial origin. Those admitting it is Jewish are told their services are no longer required.

The News Chronicle reports from Rome an unusually marked decline in Tuesday’s stock market, in which drops of 15 to 17 points were recorded in some cases, was the result of liquidation by Jewish interests.
