A mass meeting of a thousand Jewish veterans of the world war, headed by the Jewish General Heller, was held here last night to protest against the persecution of the Jews in Austria by the Nazis.
Speakers emphasized that Jewish soldiers laid down their lives for Austria during the war.
Resolutions adopted demand the government offer effective protection to the Jews. The soldiers threatened to use the same methods employed by the Nazis for self-defense if the government does not take the necessary protective measures.
