Germany today celebrated Fuehrer Hitler’s forty-seventh birthday by renewing the anti-Jewish boycott campaign under the slogan, “German money for German traders.”
The new drive is being particularly directed against thousands of Jewish retailers in the provinces. Berlin is being avoided by the boycott leaders, due to the presence of tourists from foreign lands.
Central Jewish organizations are planning an appeal to the Ministry of Commerce, to be based on the fact that the Nuremberg laws do not stipulate discriminations against Jews in commerce.
