...Italy. Jewish President Edgardo Morpurgo of Assicurazioni Generali, the great Venetian insurance firm, likewise resigned last week and was replaced by famed Count Volpi, who in 1925 as Finance Minister negotiated the Italo-U. S. debt accord. Swank Countess Volpi is a Jewess and so is the old mother of Fascist Minister of Education Giuseppe Bottai.

...series of translations of Hungarian epics. As a politician he won the awed admiration of Balkans by conducting the most slickly corrupt elections ever seen as Minister of the Interior in 1926. But Goga exactly suited King Carol because, although violently antiSemitic, he is a good friend of Jewess Lupescu; although a Fascist, a bitter enemy of Iron Guardsman Codreanu.

...hollow-eyed Pola Negri, oldtime cinemactress whose professional peak was reached in 1920 in Passion, found herself in serious difficulties with peppery little German Minister for Propaganda Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels. In the belief that Cinemactress Negri (real name: Appollonia Chalupec) was a Polish Jewess, Minister Goebbels refused her permission to act in Germany. Suddenly this order was overruled by the Führer himself. "Investigation," read the official communiqué, "instituted by the Reichsführer has established that Pola Negri is Polish and therefore Aryan" (TIME, Feb. 11, 1935). Pink with pleasure, Actress Negri cried: "The whole world...
