The second trial of Austrian ex-policemen charged with the mass murder of Jews in the Polish town of Kolomea during the Nazi occupation will open here soon, it was reported today. Six ex-policemen are defendants.

The Vienna Jewish community has furnished the prosecution with a list of 18 now living in Israel who could testify against the accused. The community coupled the list with a demand that evidence be taken from these people.
