The Swiss government today forbade importation of the new anti-Nazi book by Hermann Rauschning, one-time President of the Danzig Senate, published in Europe as “Hitler Told Me” and in America as “The Voice of Destruction.”

A few days ago the authorities banned a Swiss edition of the book. French language newspapers in Switzerland protested against the new ruling, particularly since it followed intervention by the German Legation.
