Neutral travelers arriving here from Vienna are quoted in the press here as stating that the hatred against Jews which the Nazis have attempted to instill in the factory workers of Austria is now gradually turning into hatred of Germany.

“The only hope of Austria today is that the country will cease to be part of the Reich after the war is over,” an Argentinian coming from Vienna told the German-language newspaper Die Welt here today.

The Nazi newspaper Bukarester Tageblatt which reached here today from Rumania reports that in view of the fact that the “Rumanization Office” finds it difficult to induce non-Jews to rent the dwellings from which Jews are ejected, it has decided to permit Jews to remain in dwellings under its administration, providing they undertake to make necessary repairs. The contracts will then guarantee that they are not to be ejected from their homes for twelve months, the paper adds.
