Demographic and social composition of the
Jewish population in the Soviet Union up to 1941
Translated by Irene Newhouse and Dr. Leonid Smilovitsky
From the beginning of the Soviet-German War in the European parts of the country to 1941, about five million Jews were annihilated, and in the Asian part of the nation, about 500,000 Jews were killed. Jews murdered numbered 2,994,684 in Ukraine, 446,484 in Belarusia excluding Bialystok, and in Bialystok 400,000. In the territories occupied by the German military from October-November 1941, there were 88 million Soviet citizens. In the new regions which were annexed by the Soviet Union in 1939-40 (Western Ukraine, Western Belarusia, Bessarabia, Bukovina, the Baltic countries) there were 23 million people. In these, the Jewish population was:
| Name of Republic |
Jewish population |
| Lithuania |
155,000 |
| Latvia |
95,000 |
| Estonia |
5,000 |
| Northern Bukovina and Bessarabia |
278,000 |
| Western Belarusia and Ukraine |
1,030,000 |
| Regions of The Russian Federation, occupied by German forces |
25,000 |
The distribution of occupations among Jews in European countries was as follows:
| Rural managers |
9.1% |
| Urban workers |
14.8% |
| Mercantile employees |
20% |
| Government employees (civil service) |
23.4% |
| Self-employed and professionals (doctors, reporters, theater, etc.) |
32.7% |

From an order of Field Marshal General Walter von Reichenau,
Commander of the 6th Army;
“On the behavior of troops in the East.”
The full German text of this order can be found at http://www.hnet.org/~german/gtext/nazi/reichanu-germ.html
Translation of the parts from the German original by Irene Newhouse
The main goal of the campaign against the Jewish-Bolshevist system is absolute destruction of its tools of power and eradication of Asiatic influence in European culture. From this derives tasks for the troops which go beyond traditional soldiery's understanding. The soldier in the East is not only a warrior according to military rules, but a carrier of the unrelenting Folk Idea, and avenger of the atrocities committed on the German and related peoples.
Therefore the soldier must have an understanding for the necessity of hard but justifiable atonement on the part of Jewish sub-humans. There is a second goal, the suppression of uprisings behind the German front, which, experience has shown, are invariably instigated by Jews. The battle against the enemy behind the front is not yet taken sufficiently seriously. To this date, treacherous, horrible partisans and degenerate women are still being made prisoners of war, half-uniformed or civilian-dressed hedge snipers and loiters are still treated like decent soldiers and taken to prisoner of war camps. Yes, captured Russian officers state, laughing scornfully, that Soviet agents move about without restriction and often eat in German field kitchens. Such conduct can only be explained as total thoughtlessness. It is the duty of the officers to reawaken the sense for the present war.
Completely independently of any political considerations of the future, the soldier has two tasks to fulfill:
- Total eradication of the erroneous Bolshevist doctrine, the Soviet state, and its army.
- Relentless eradication of alien treachery and atrocity, and thereby securing the life of the German army in Russia.
This is the only way in which we can execute our manifest destiny of ridding the German people of the Asiatic-Jewish menace for all time.

Letter of Panteleimon Ponomarenko,
the first Secretary of the Central Committee
of the Communist Party of Belorussia, to Josef Stalin
Translated by Irene Newhouse and Dr. Leonid Smilovitsky
Secretary Central Committee of the Communist Party of Belorussia
Member of the Military Soviet of the Western Front Panteleimon Ponomarenko
(not later than 12 July 12, 1941)
Top secret
On the Situation in Belarus
Of 100 districts in Belarus, as per old boundaries, 51 districts are in our hands and in areas of the interior 20 districts are under Nazi control, such that the enemy passes through cities and the front at will - infantry movements are not secure.
The mood among Belorussians is exceptionally patriotic and militant. Livestock from collective farms is driven behind the front as soon as orders to do so are proclaimed. Incidents of opposite motion don't occur. As of now, over 350 thousand head of cattle (have been driven) across the Dniepr and Dvina (Rivers)... Until defensive forces for the Dniepr line can be brought up, there are only women, the elderly, and children. All in all, there are around 150,000 people involved. Employees on collective farms, implore us to give them arms; please appropriate everything (needed) for the army... The supply of arms is very insufficient, the military authorities do not like to offer anything (weaponry); the little that does come is for reserve regiments. The collective farmers obtain arms, killing Germans and collecting weaponry that remains on the field s of the battles. I think that it might be possible to collect 10-15 thousand rifles from those captured, abandoned, etc.
Experience has shown that the presence of a resistance organization of 200-300 men in a district is sufficient to initiate partisan activity in that district... In each region captured by Germans, partisan units have been organized. In all, there are over three thousand men. Furthermore, underground cells are growing tenfold in other respects. 100 units sprang up overnight. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of Belarus organizes 200-300 men in the occupied districts every day, including resistance organization, orientation and leadership. Information concerning outstanding, effective partisan activity is being received all the time...
In occupied districts, the Germans endeavor to humor the peasants. Newcomers to villages, soldiers and officers, greet the peasants most respectfully, distribute chocolate to the children, women everywhere yield to two to three meters of chintz, that primary symbol of pre-revolutionary affluence. Verbal declarations and extracts of pamphlets follow:
- The property of those who hide and evade work will be confiscated.
- The hard-earned wages of working men and staff will not be subject to significant deductions
- The number of volunteers is not sufficient (bear in mind the results of compulsory “loans”) (note: the Communist regime, when faced with a shortage of funds for a high-priority project, was in the habit of levying special, immensely unpopular, taxes which they called “loans”)
- Stahkanovist* press will be prohibited.
- Christians and Moslems will be given religious freedom.
All their agitation, verbal and written, states that the battle is against Jews and Communists, which are made synonymous. In Cherven, the Germans gathered Belorussians for indoctrination; sometimes, if they sense hostility, they execute the crowd with machine guns. The population is deserting the cities. The Germans also single out the village elders and ask, “What authority do you wish?” One elder replied, “In that case, we'd like to be left alone”.
In conclusion, one is obliged to emphasize the totally fearless steadfastness and unyielding attitudes toward the enemy of the collective farmers, but some people, some departments, some urban councilors, think of nothing but saving their own hides. It is explained by the great power in the Jewish stratum in the cities. Their proclamations have resulted in animal terror of Hitler and instead of struggle - flight. In conclusion, I reiterate the petition for relief arms for collective farmers, Communists and Comsomol (Young Communist League) members, so that the front in not cut off, also shells.

Who Were Your Oppressors?
Translated by Judith Springer
Who flooded your land with streams of tears and blood?
Kikes and their communist henchmen!
Who took the last shirts off your backs? Who squeezed the last juices out of you?
Kikes and their communist henchmen!
Who took away all the grain from your granaries and made you starve?
Kikes and their communist henchmen!
Who informed on you, who exiled you from your homes of many years, thus condemning you to death from starvation?
Kikes and their communist henchmen!
Who left you to rot alive in concentration camps and prisons?
Kikes and their communist henchmen!
Who tormented to death millions of your fathers, mothers, your husbands, wives, and children, in NKVD torture chambers?
Kikes and their communist henchmen!
NEVER FORGET!
That Kikes are the worst enemies of your people!
That Kikes advocate communism only in order to achieve world domination for themselves.
The International represents the power of Kikes.
In the Soviet Union, as well as in capitalist states, all power is in the hands of Kikes.
Capitalist Kikes have united with communist Kikes and are fighting against the state of true freedom and real socialism -- Germany.
The Soviet Union is the kingdom of Kikes. Stalin is only a signboard. All these Kaganoviches, Sobelsons, Finkelshteyns, and other Jewish groupings are hiding behind his back. They are disguising themselves under Russian names in order to deceive you.
NEVER FORGET!
That Jewish propaganda, saying that the Soviet Union was a workers' paradise, lied to you. In reality, the most flagrant social injustice reigned there.
State capitalism -- the most horrible form of capitalism -- reigned in the Soviet Union.
Under the yoke of this state capitalism, workers and peasants in the Soviet Union were collapsing from backbreaking work.
Kikes and their communist henchmen were brutally exploiting workers in the Soviet Union, while they were leading a dissolute and dissipated life.
Now an end has come to this Jewish exploitation and deception.
ADOLF HITLER, HIMSELF THE SON OF A WORKER,
Liberated German workers and peasants from bloody Jewish exploitation.
He saved them, preventing an attack on Germany by the Jewish stooge and murderer Stalin.
Adolf Hitler drove away Kikes and their communist henchmen.
Help with all your might to more quickly eliminate the consequences of this unfortunate war. A happy life awaits you.
LET US ALL FOLLOW ADOLF HITLER TO A BETTER FUTURE AND A NEW HAPPY LIFE
