Nazis to Rid Berlin of 140,000 Jews
Americans and the Holocaust Exhibit
This 1938 Associate Press article reports a large expulsion of Jews from Berlin. The coverage describes the increasingly restrictive laws in Germany, the arrests of Jews, deportation to concentration camps, and Germany’s policy of immigration. This attempt to remove Jews from Germany predated the Nazi decision to murder European Jews. ;“Nazis to Rid Berlin of 140,000 Jews,” St. Louis Globe-Democrat (St. Louis, MO), June 21, 1938, page 3, column 1, digital image, Newspapers.com (https://www.newspapers.com/image/573357045/: accessed {Feb 4, 2026}.
