The remains of 87 Hungarian Jewish martyrs murdered by the Nazis during a death march at the close of World War II were brought to Jewish burial today at Lina. With solemn rites, the remains, uncovered there recently, were exhumed by the Jewish community in the upper Austrian town, and reinterred. The victims had been shot by the SS.
