The entire Jewish population
was said to be in dread of COM

has been issued by Heinrich
Himmler, head of the German po-

Berlin via Switzerland. It was
not known whether the Gestapo
wished the information for pos

connection with the Munich bomb
ing or for the transfer of Jews to
the projected Jewish reservation"
in the Lublin district of Poland.
However, French press and ra-
dio predicted grave events ahead
for the Reich Jews as a result of
the attempt on Hitler's life. The
Paris radio emphasized that the
Gestapo might use the Munich
explosion as a pretext for strik-
ing the strongest blow against
the Jews they have yet expert
enced in the Reich.
Paris newspapers asked: What
did November 10, 1888 bring and
what will November 10, 1899
bring?" Newspapers quoted the
German press to show that an at

the Jews, was being work.

Nazi papers were going out of
their way to remind readers of
last years events in order to pre-

German newspapers which
reached Paris through neutral
countries carried denials Of re-
ports that Germany was inviting
Jews back to the Reich as ele-
ments needed for her economy.

representations to the War Office.
The wisdom of clearly identifying

out that Jewish soldier, if TAX

than members Of the Christian
faith.

D. MILTON BROWN. J.T.A.
BOMB IN MUNICH

November 8, 1888, a German
Embassy official in Paris was
EhOt and fatally wounded. The
|shOt served as the signal for the
|unIeashing of a campaign Of muir
der. torture and impOverishment
AGAINST the Jews in Germany.
November 8, 1888 year later,
almost to the day-a bomb ex-
|ploded in the Buergerbraeu Hall
N Munich, II minutes after Chan
|celIor Hitler had finished speech
|commemorating the 1928 "beer
hall putsch" and had left. Eight
Nazis were killed and more than
leo were injured.
It was not Immediately discOv-
|ered who was responsible for
planting the bomb, but this did
mot prevent the Nazi regime from
calling into use its traditional
'scapegOat-the Jews. The semi
official news agency, Deutscher
|Dienst,.. announcing. that severe
steps were being taken against
enemies of the regime, declared:
who are the enemies? They
|are agents of the British secret
service. Behind them are the
British meters to war and their
Jewish spokesman"
Fears were expressed that moro
direct action would be taken
against the Reich Jews than mere
Remuneration. As an editorial In
the New York Sun put it, mo
matter who planted the bomb, or
for what reason, it would not do to-
attribute it to anybody but these
official. scapegOats.. which. have
been duly nominated to bear the
blame for anything Nazi Germany
considers blamewOrthy. Accusing
the foreigner, especially the Brit
ish foreigner, and the Jew serves
the double purpose of keeping
the Hitler legend intact and stir
ring to fierce heat hatred for Der
FUehrer'S foes"
