There were to be no press photographs showing cabinet ministers attending banquets, nor any reports on them. Other censored items included outbreaks of cattle-poisoning resulting from the effect of German potassium on cattle fodder, a car accident involving von Ribbentrop in which his eldest daughter had been badly hurt, and the participation of Fräulein Hess in the Berlin dog show. The question of whether Jesus had been Jewish was not to be broached, for the reason that it could no longer be decided after two thousand years.
