“Notice. Jews in Germany regarding the boycott of goods originating from Nazi Germany. It should be known that the persecution of your brothers in Germany has not yet ceased and continues endlessly, that their lives are abandoned, their days have turned into constant hell. Know that by purchasing any German newspaper you are supporting the murderers of your brothers, the enemies of your people, is this your honor? So remember! When you buy various articles and products on the holiday. Pay close attention that they must not be German! Carefully check everything you buy! Be sure not to buy anything that has to do with Germany! Demand from the merchant, the shop owner, not to give you German goods, because every article that has to do with Hitler’s country reminds you of this – suffering from your brothers, covered in their blood! Therefore, – do not forget your brothers from Germany! The struggle we are leading for them is our common cause! It is a matter of life for all of you throughout the world.
