New anti-Semitic activities are reported in Norway, where Nazi officials from Berlin are pressing the local administration to “adjust” the regulations in Norway to those prevailing in the Reich.

All commercial establishments in Norway have been ordered to submit detailed lists of their employees, stating whether they are Jews or “Aryans.”

The Nazi-controlled radio in Norway is now broadcasting anti-Semitic lectures in German and in Russian, apparently with a view to attracting listeners in Soviet Russia. In these “lectures” it declared that the Jews can never be assimilated; that they are not even people of one race, but belong to a mixture of races. “The brown race gave them mysticism, the yellow race gave them cunning and the Negro race gave them a certain artistic sense,” the Nazi broadcasters assert.
