The Berlin radio today quoted an article written by a Japanese general indicating that Japan is preparing severe measures against the Jews in Japanese-occupied territories.

“Although there are not more than 100,000 Jews in the Far East, we must take measures against them in order to avoid their destructive influence,” the Nazi radio quoted the Japanese general. “To us, the Jews of the Far East are no different than the Jews in America or in Europe who wish to see our enemies victorious.”
