The Brazilian Foreign Office has sent a protest to Germany against the segregation in special concentration camps of Jews among Brazilian prisoners of war captured by the Germans, the Brazil radio announced last night.

Revealing, for the first time, that the Nazi were discriminating against Brazilian Jewish captives, the broadcast said: “The Foreign Office today sent a protest to Germany through the Inter national Red Cross against this inhuman treatment of prisoners of war.”
