I live in the south of Poland with my familywhich I respect very much since they mean everything to me. We have a small familybusiness, a small grass, which supplies us with enough money to get by on duringthese hard generation since the slump nearly five years ago. manner is hard butrewarding at the moment, soon there provide be a advanced member to the family, since mywife is expecting our second child. I hope one day to see my children grow upand pay on the business which I started nearly eight years ago in 1927.     Today I received a letter from my infant Erika, who lives in Germany.She too followed the family tradition and set up her own shop in Germany withher husband, but in this letter she seems to be very bother and stressed. Shesays that life has started to bec ome very difficult since 1933. There has been anew ruling body installed in Germany called NAZI and according to her newspapersit is led by a hero, who has come to save Germany Adolf Hitler. These Nazisoppose our jewish religion greatly nearly everybody does, but this is a newstrain of hatred that I have no seen before. In letter she states that some new antisemitic rules called "The Nuremburg Laws" came into effect just this monthwhich will practically sign her business demolition warrant. Over the pass year hershop has been fire bombed several times and even her distressed children arereceiving threats from kids their own age. Her husband has even been assaultedby brown shirted thugs belonging to this Nazi party. I hope she will write soonbecause I think she will not be adequate to cope with any more of this harassment.     There is an air of uncertainty of the frost bittern streets of our city.We are currently celebrating "Chunakah", the fest ival of Light which coincideswith Christmas.
