- NEW YORK, March 29—(U.P.)— The first personal story of anti-Semitic activity in Germany was brought back to New York today by Edward Dahlberg, American novelist of Jewish birth, who returned aboard the Bremen.
Dahlberg was himself the victim of an attack.
"Of course, Jews are murdered every day," Dahlberg was quoted as saying in a copyrighted interview with the New York World-Telegram.
"I saw definite letters to American newspaper correspondents describing the disappearance of friends, personal indignities and the finding of murdered people. The censorship would not allow these reports to be sent out of the country."
He said that Egon Irwin Kish, young German Jewish novelist, was in a hospital as the result of a Nazi beating, although official statements said Klsh was traveling abroad. He told of seeing boycotts of Jewish-owned department stores where Nazis prevented by physical violence, if necessary, the entrance of any customers. - History Unfolded Contributor
