Rumors that the Heimwehr is planning a Nazi coup has aroused considerable nervousness here.

The Nazi triumph in Germany is expected to lead to a further intensification of anti-Jewish propaganda which was already evident even before the announcement of the election results.

In the meantime, the expected large scale flight of German Jews to Austria has not materialized. Altogether less than 50 well-to-do families from Germany have received permits to stay in Austria, although a large number of Austrian Jews who had been domiciled in Germany are streaming back.
