THE CHINA MAIL FRIDAY SUPPLEMENT; NOVEMBER 15, 1940.

Nazi

The persecution of the Jews by the Nazis in the Low Coun- tries appears to be increasing fre proportion to the resistance offer- ed by the local populations to the regime introduced there by the invaders. All acts of sabotage of Nazi orders are attributed by the authorities to the secret influence of Jews. Accordingly, the Nazi rulers are pouring their wrath on Jews and are constantly inventing measures to segregate non-Jews from Jews and to sow discord be- tween them."

In Luxembourg, ten yellow seats labelled "for Jew's only have been placed in # remote corner of the city park and even those ghetto seats

can only be used by the Jews for one hour daily, from 6 to 7 a.m. The local Jewish soup kitchen has also been ordered to distribute its meals to the needy at 6 am. The excuse is that the rush of Jews to obtain free food during the day is ob- structing city traffle.

In Holland, the Nazis have au- nounced that no ration cards will be issued to Jews to obtain new

clothes, underwear and footwear.

The Nazi authorities in Amster dam have also ordered the in- portant restaurants and cafes to display notices that Jewish ens- tomers are not desired by them

Most characteristic. however, has been the Nazi effort to dis- credit Queen Wilhelmina in the eyes of the Dutch people in con- nection with her Majesty's sixtieth birthday. Fearing loyal demon- strations in honour of the beloved Queen the Nazis have distributed pamphlets alleging that the Dutch. Dynasty originates from a Jewish family from Spain, which settled in Holland after the Spanish In- quisition. The Dutch people, however, treated the Nazi "revela- tions" concerning their Queen with the contempt they deserved.

In Belgium, Jews have beer banned from the re-opened Stock Exchanges.

Norway Confiscations

The impression produced in Norway by the presentation to the country of the German bill of £10,000,000 for the expenses of the Nazi army of occupation has been of a nature which even the invaders and the Norwegian Quis- lings could not ignore,

Accordingly, they set to work to try and soften the blow by en- deavouring to persuade the popu- lation, that in reality, a large part

This process, they declared, is to be accomplish- ed by the seizure of the property. of the Norwegian refugees and by the confiscation of 80 per cent, of view of the great use made the property of the Jews by the them of unrationed fruit end of the current year:

The Norwegian people, how ever, have not been deceived, fully renlising that whatever construc- tion was put upon the inethods for raising the sum demanded by the Nazis their bill involved a loss f* the country of £10,000,000.

The leaders of the new move- ment have already issued secret leaflets warning the French people that the pillars of the Vichy Gov- ernment, and not the Ministers who are on trial at Riom, are res- ponsible for the humiliation suf- fered by France, The leaflets characterised the Riom trial as a second Dreyfus case and appealed to the French people to reject Nazi and anti-Semitic principles.
