Schacht Warns Against Damage to Jewish Places of Business
(June 5, 1935)
Berlin, June 5, 1935
Immediate
The Reich and Prussian
Minister of Economics
To: The Minister-President
of Bavaria
I have seen from the daily papers that the leaders
of the "Terror Gangs" who have caused an impermissible boycott of Jewish stores in the past weeks have been arrested. In view of the
anxiety caused by these incidents and by the approaching Whitsun holiday
business I will take this opportunity to request you to ensure that
any further breaches of the law will be dealt with most severely, and
that Whitsun sales can proceed without friction in the non-Aryan stores
as well [as in others]....
Hjalmar
Schacht
President of the Reichsbank
