MOSCOW, (JTA)—"Half-Jews" and "quarter-Jews"
have been serving in the Nazi army since last April, it
was revealed this week on the basis of documents seized
by the Red Army when it captured the staff headquart-
ers of the 298th infantry division.
According to the order, countersigned by Hitler and
Von Keitel, then German commander-in-chief, it was
decided to draft persons who had 50 percent "Jewish
blood' or whose wives were half-Jewish and those who,
themselves, had twenty-five percent "Jewish blood," or
whose wives were quarter-Jewish.
The first category—those who were half-Jewish-
were to be kept isolated from the Nazi soldiers, and in
no event could become officers. The second category—
those with only twenty-five percent Jewish blood—were
to be treated no differently than any of the other soldiers
and might become officers.
