Italian Jews can become full-fledged “Aryans” if they are able to get together 300,000 lira, approximately $15,000, it was reported here today.

Fascist leaders in Rome, Milan and other cities have set themselves up in the business of selling “aryan” certificates with the cooperation of the Ministry of the Interior, which issues the documents. Some of the money is reported as going into the depleted Italian treasury.
