The Jewish Community demanded today a police investigation into the origin of leaflets distributed in many districts last night, bearing the six-pointed Jewish star and exhorting Jews to buy only from co-religionists. The community denied in a statement that the leaflets had come from any Jewish source.

Jewish traders expressed alarm over the circulars, seeing in their distribution an attempt to mislead Gentiles into boycotting Jews.
