The Berlin radio today announced that real estate confiscated from Jews in the Reich will henceforth be reserved for front soldiers who display bravery in the war. Wounded soldiers will be given preference in acquiring the desired property.
The announcement was made in behalf of the German Ministry of Finance with a view of dispelling the despair felt by many of the families of German soldiers. Wives of front soldiers can apply for confiscated Jewish real estate while the husband is fighting at the front, the announcement explained.
