The pro-Nazi volume, “Reply of a German,” by Hans Grimm, will be withdrawn from circulation and its further sale, publication or export will be banned, it was revealed here by the Allied Council’s executive committee. The volume was issued this year in Gratz. Chancellor Leopold Figl has been asked to issue the necessary orders to carry out the Council’s decision.

The police also turned down their request for permission to march with bared chests.
