An acceleration in the processing of indemnification claims was demanded here today at a conference of the Association of Social Democrat Victims of Nationalist Socialism.

Asserting that “indemnification is not a fiscal but a moral task, ” Herbert Wehner, vice-chairman of the Social Democratic party, told the conference that former Nazis have been able to satisfy their claims quicker than have the victims of the Third Reich.
