The Austrian Government still has its reply to Jewish demands for compensation and restitution “under preparation,” a government spokesman announced today.
He revealed that the Cabinet, which was expected to discuss the Austrian reply at today’s session, had not touched upon the matter. The Austrian reply has been in the works for the past three weeks and there is no indication when it will be completed.
(The New York Times reported from Vienna that the Austrian Government is sabotaging efforts by the Jewish Ullstein family to recover a large printing plant in the Austrian capital which was confiscated by the Nazis. Despite the fact that the Allied authorities and an Austrian court have upheld the Ullsteins, the government, which handed the plant to the Socialist and Peoples Party trade unions, refuses to take any action to return the plant to its Jewish owners.)
