There is a very apparent Semitic influence in the press. They are trying to do two thing; first, implement Communism and second, see that all businessmen of German ancestry and non-Jewish antecedents  are thrown out of their jobs.

They were evidently quite shocked when I told them I would kick nobody out without the successful proof of guilt before a court of law.
