| Description | Anti-Jewish movement continues though physical attacks have almost stopped; higher leaders of Party have not changed their views, but are aware of adverse criticism outside Germany and its possible effects upon German economy; mass of Nazis still violently antisemitic and unhappy over restraints imposed by leaders; in Berlin about half the Jewish lawyers have been readmitted to practice, but under such restrictions they are hampered in their practice, and no new Jewish lawyers admitted; no Jewish physicians left in official positions; physicians may continue private practice, but German people intimidated from using them. No new Jewish physicians licensed; Jewish professors excluded from universities; status of Jewish students not yet clear, but atmosphere is such Jewish student would find it intolerable; in the arts, Jewish performers are excluded, though the censored press announces they have been "invited" to other countries; the quality of the theater has deteriorated since the exclusions of the Jews; no publisher will publish anything written by a Jew; Jews excluded from competition in all sports; next Olympic Games to be held in Berlin; might suggest to Olympic Committee in U.S. that U.S. should not participate; the Jew in business and industry insecure; likely that government will take over banks, most of which are Jewish owned; and property will be confiscated; restrictions on departure from country make it impossible for well-to-do Jews to leave with any part of their capital; because of censorship, outside world knows little of the difficulties faced by the Jews in Germany. | en_US |
