From a letter in "DER STURMER"
No. 5. February 1940.
The Jews were for Poland, in the literal sense of the word, a Pest; swarms of locusts, as described in the Old Testament, couldn't have ravaged the country more terribly than these parasites from the banks of the Jordan. Yet, just as there exists only one effective way of dealing with swarms of locusts—namely, by exterminating them . completely—there only exists one way of combatting the Jewish pest, too: ruthless destruction. Heil Hitler.
[Signed] Uffz. Recknagel.
