GERMAN POGROM
UNCONVINCING OFFICIAL DENIAL POINTS OF INCONSISTENCY. ELDERLY JEW TRAMPLED TO DEATH. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. (Received This Day, 12.35 p.m.) LONDON, November 11. The “Daily Telegraph’s” Berlin correspondent, referring to Dr Goebbels’s denial that the anti-Jewish riots were instigated officially, points out that it is admitted that at least 200,000 police would have been required to protect the shoos. It is also claimed that the demonstrations would have been more radical if they had been organised. The apparent admission of inability to maintain law and order conflicted with the statement that the demonstrations ceased immediately a cessation was ordered. It is also significant that the demonstrations started simultaneously throughout Germany. Police headquarters declared that the Propaganda Ministry was bearing the whole responsibility. After the issue of the cessation order, an elderly Jew was trampled to death last night and a children’s home in Isenburg was set on fire. It is believed that 8000 Jews were arrested in Berlin and 35,000 throughout the Reich.
