GIPSIES TURN NAZI
Large Number in Rumania Bucharest, August 3. Rumania’s 12,000 gipsies, who hitherto have led a happy-go-lucky life, have become politically-minded and are joining the Nazi organisation in a body and adopting the swastika as the Romany emblem. The Nazis regard as splendid the opportunities for propaganda which the nomadic life of the gipsies offers, and have readily overlooked their racialist principles and accepted them, despite their Asiatic origin and swarthy colour. The gipsies are now publishing a newspaper in the Romany language. It is violently anti-Semitic and is equivalent to the notorious “Der Stumer.” The “Sturmer,” the Nuremberg aptiSemitic weekly paper, is pjjJjlished by Julius Streicher, a personal friend of Herr Hitler. Its violent charges against the Jews have included the publication of alleged evidence of “ritual murder."
