On many of the shop windows there were large, untidy, and insulting drawings of Jewish faces. I dare say that no Jew was mishandled who submitted quietly to the unpleasantness of the day. That was w)iat*we actually saw in Berlin. Here in Hamburg the boycott was not so personal, and the dismissal of Jews, at least from medical and nursing positions, has been of quite rare occurrence.
