Goering Authorized to Execute Jews Raiders Threat
Vienna report says Joseph Buerckel, Nazi commissioner for Austria, announced Field Marshal Hermann Goering authorized him to say that anyone causing further anti Jewish attacks or rioting would face execution. The warning came as Jews in Germany feared new outbursts amid Germany's colonial demands and allied condemnations. Roosevelt denounced Nazi anti-Semitism and outlined a two continent defense plan, while Paris pledged no colonial concessions and the U.S. prepared to monitor Germany's actions. Ambassador Wilson planned to report back from Berlin as tensions rose over antisemitic policy and property destruction.
