The Zagreb radio said Jewish property would be confiscated without compensation. Jewish employees of the Government will be ousted by June 1. Jewish physicians employed by the Government will be dismissed and private practice of Jewish doctors will be severely restricted.

Jewish lawyers will be barred from practice. Elimination of Jews from banking will be completed soon, the announcement said.
