There was just not enough food for more than one third of the population. Now in this declaration. which I have here. and on August 7. 1933. Mr. Samuel Untermyer boldly stated that “this economic boycott is our means of self-defense. President Roosevelt has advocated its use in the. National Recovery Administration.” Which some of you may remember. Where everybody was to be boycotted unless he followed the rules laid down by the New Deal.
Which was declared unconstitutional
By the Supreme Court of that time. Nevertheless. The Jews of the world declared a boycott against Germany. and it was so effective that phone number list you couldn’t find one thing in any store anywhere in the world with the words “made in Germany” on it. In fact. An executive of the Woolworth Company told me that they had to dump millions of dollars worth of crockery and dishes into the river; that their stores were boycotted if anyone came in and found a dish marked “made in Germany.” they were picketed with signs saying “Hitler.” “murderer.”
Something like these sit-ins that are taking
Place in the South. At a store belonging to the R. H. Macy chain. which was controlled by a family called Strauss who also happen to i am hoping and have better be Jews. a woman found stockings there which came from Chemnitz. marked “made in Germany.” Well. they were cotton stockings and they may have been there 20 years. since I’ve been observing women’s legs for many years and it’s been a long time since I’ve seen any cotton stockings on them. I saw Macy’s boycotted. with hundreds of people walking around with signs saying “murderers.” “Hitlerites.” and so forth. Now up to that time. not one hair on the head of any Jew had been hurt in Germany. There was no suffering. there was no starvation. there was no murder. there was nothing.
Naturally the Germans said. “Who are these
People to declare a boycott against us aero leads and throw all our people out of work. and make our industries come to a standstill? Who are they to do that to us?” They naturally resented it. Certainly they painted swastikas on stores owned by Jews. Why should a German go in and give his money to a storekeeper who was part of a boycott that was going to starve Germany into surrendering to the Jews of the world. who were going to dictate who their premier or chancellor was to be? Well. it was ridiculous.
