Folks wrote about what nonsense it was to claim Germany discriminated against Jews, Mr Brundage of the Olympic committee declared there was no discrimination and that the 'rumors' were an attempt to discredit Hitler, launched by the press and the Jews.
Have a good Olympic Games, enjoy your ski show!
