From thirty-nine to seventy-three percent of “non-Aryan” lawyers and notaries in Prussia have been deprived of the right to practice during the past year, figures now available show.
Last year there were in Prussia 3,378 “non-Aryan” lawyers. This year there are only 2,066. Of last year’s quota of 2,046 notaries, there are today 884. In Berlin there are today only 1,227 of both categories.
While the average decrease in the number of “non-Aryan” notaries was fifty-nine percent, it amounted to seventy-three percent in the city of Kassel. The general decrease in the number of “non-Aryan” lawyers in Prussia was thirty-nine percent.
