War Brings Greater Hardship To 200,000 Jews Still In Germany

By Joseph W. Grigg, Jr.

(United Press Staff Correspondent)

BERLIN, April 19 (UP).—A year and a half of war and the sacrifices it has im- posed on all Germans has brought new hardships and distress to 200,000 Jews who still remain in Germany despite the government's severe anti-Semitic programme.

But, by a paradox, the war has broken down to some extent the rigid ostracism, bordering on actual ghetto conditions, under which these Jews lived since the violent anti-Jewish outbreak of November 1938.

Lach Shoes

The Jews were not given clothing cords for 1941. Without much a card it is impossible to buy clothes. Since the beginning of the war they have been unable to obtain permits to buy shoes, and only in some instances have they been allowed to have their old shoes repated.

The Jewish community faced this problem partially by donation of shoes and clothing by better-off Jews to the poorer ones. Doublless inany Aryan Gennons "on the quiet" occa- stonully give cast-off clothes to former Jewish friends.
