The Union of Austrian Jews has filed a vigorous protest with the Minister of Education against the recent statement issued by the Agricultural College here pledging itself to give no place, on the faculty to any Jewish teachers.
The statement went out the way to add insult to injury by decaring that the Jews were obstructing the progress of culture and ideals in Austria.
The Union of Austrian Jews brands the statement as unconstitutional and demands that an official statement be published condemning it.
