JEWS OF ALL THE WORLD UNITE
BOYCOTT OF GERMAN GOODS
MASS DEMONSTRATIONS
"Daily Express" Special Political Correspondent.
A strange and unforeseen sequel has emerged from the stories of
German Jew-baiting.
The whole of Israel throughout the world is uniting to declare
an economic and financial war on Germany.
Hitherto the cry has gone up: "Germany is persecuting the Jews."
If the present plans are carried out, the Hitlerite cry will be:
"The Jews are persecuting Germany."
All Israel is rising in wrath against the Nazi onslaught on
the Jews. Adolf Hitler, swept into power by an appeal of
elemental patriotism, is making history of a kind he least
expected. Thinking to unite only the German nation to race
consciousness, he has roused the whole Jewish people to
national renascence.
The appearance of the Swastika symbol of a new Germany has
called forth the Lion of Judah, the old battle symbol of
Jewish defiance.
Fourteen million Jews, dispersed throughout the world, have
banded together as one man to declare war on the German
persecutors of their co-religionists. Sectional differences
and antagonisms
[strip-shaped drawing with alternating swastikas and lions]
have been submerged in one common aim - to stand by the
600,000 Jews of Germany who are terrorised by Hitlerite
anti-Semitism and to compel Fascist Germany to end its
campaign of violence and suppression directed against its
Jewish minority.

World Jewry has made up its mind not to rest quiescent in
face of this revival of medieval Jew-baiting.
Germany may be called on to pay a heavy price for Hitler's
antagonism to the Jews. She is faced with an international
boycott in commerce, finance, and industry.
The Jewish merchant prince is leaving his counting-house,
the banker his board-room, the shopkeeper his store, and
the pedlar his humble barrow, to join together in what has
become a holy war to combat the Hitlerite enemies of the Jew.
Plans for concerted Jewish action are being matured in Europe
and America to strike back in reprisal at Hitlerite Germany.
In London, New York, Paris, and Warsaw Jewish merchants are
waiting for a commercial crusade.
Resolutions are being taken throughout the Jewish business

world to sever trade relations with Germany.
Large numbers of merchants in London have resolved to stop
buying German goods, even at the cost of suffering heavy loss.
A meeting of the Jewish textile trade in London has been called
for Monday to consider the situation and to determine what steps
should be taken.
Germany is a heavy borrower in foreign money markets, where
Jewish influence is considerable. Continued anti-Semitism in
Germany is likely to react seriously against her. A move is on
foot on the part of Jewish financiers to exert pressure to force
anti-Jewish action to stop.
The Organisation of Jewish Youth in Britain are organizing
demonstrations in London and the provinces during the weekend.
The Board of Deputies of British Jews, representing the entire
Jewish community of Great Britain, are meeting in special
session on Sunday to discuss the German situation, and to decide
on what action should be taken to counteract the attacks on
their German fellow-Jews.
World-wide preparations are being made to organise demonstrations
of protest.
EMBARGO IN POLAND
A concerted boycott by Jewish buyers is likely to involve grave
damage to the German export trade. Jewish merchants all over the
world are large buyers of German manufactured goods, chiefly
cotton goods, silks, toys, electrical fittings, and furniture.
In Poland, the trade embargo on Germany is already in operation.
In France, a proposed ban on German imports is being widely
canvassed in Jewish circles.
German Transatlantic shipping traffic is likewise threatened.
The Bremen and the Europa, the German crack liners, may suffer
heavily from a Jewish anti-German boycott. Jewish trans-ocean
travellers form an important part of the patrons of these liners
because of their extensive part in international trade. The loss
of their patronage would be a heavy blow to Germany's Atlantic
trade.
In New York yesterday 10,000 Jewish ex-soldiers marched to the
City Hall to hold a protest demonstration.
Large crowds watched the men, some of whom wore old British
uniforms, petition the mayor to support them in a boycott of
German goods.
Another petition was handed in at the British Consulate-General
requesting that Palestine should receive refugees from Germany
without restriction.
Members of the American House of Representatives are introducing
resolutions protesting against the anti-Jewish excesses in
Germany. The American trade unions, representing 3,000,000
workers, have also decided to join in the protest.
A rabbinical decree in New York has made the next Monday a day
of fasting and prayer over the Hitler campaign.
Fasting will begin on Sunday at sunset and finish at sunset on
Monday.
All Jewish shops in New York will be closed on Monday during a
parade.
Apart from a monster meeting in Madison-square Garden, meetings
are to be held in 300 American cities.
Madison-square Garden will see the remarkable sight of Bishop
Manning speaking from a Jewish platform appealing for an end of
the Hitler "terror."
DAY OF SERMONS
It had been arranged to charge a shilling admission and 5 s.
for box seats, but a public-spirited Jew, Frank Cohen, an
insurance broker, gove [sic] a personal cheque for L 1,000 to
cover all expenses, so admission will be free.
Every rabbi in the city of New York has been placed under a
sacred obligation by rabbinical decree to devote Saturday's
sermon to the plight of Jews in Germany.
Representative Jewish organisations in the European capitals
are understood to be making representations to their various
Governments to use influence with the Hitler Cabinet to induce
it to call a halt in the oppression of the German Jews.
The old and reunited people of Israel are rising with new
and modern weapons to fight their age-old battle with their
persecutors.[2]
