A hope that the Austrian Government may soon find a solution to the problem of adequate compensation to victims of Nazism in that country was expressed here today by Dr. Bruno Kreisky, Foreign Minister of Austria.
Dr. Kreisky voiced that hope after a conference with a delegation representing the Board of Deputies of British Jews, headed by the Board’s president, Barnett Janner.
The delegation presented the Foreign Minister from Vienna with a memorandum, drawing attention to the need for speedy Austrian Government action on compensation for victims of Nazism, restitution for Jewish property in Austria for which no heirs can now be located, and compensation for Jewish communal property destroyed in Austria during the Nazi regime.
