- Vichy—(U.P.)—A newly formed anti-Jewish brigade operating in Nazi-occupied France raided the Paris flea market Sunday and arrested 34 Jews, it was revealed yesterday.
The Jews arrested at the flea market, open-air, second hand bartering place, were charged with having improper papers or with practicing "forbidden professions."
A police inspector accompanied members of the brigade in the raid, which was hailed by the German controlled Paris press as marking the start of "a vast program of practical action to rid our national economic life of Jews." - History Unfolded Contributor
