All Jewish engineers and technicians who were dismissed from the large industrial war plants in Rumania for racial reasons have been reinstated, the Gazette de Lausanne, a Swiss newspaper, reports today.
The report discloses that Jews have also been called back to work at the Malaxa factories which are the largest in the country, producing the major part of Rumania’s war material and railway stock. These factories were taken over by the Germans in 1940 and incorporated into the Hermann Goering Work, and the Greek owner Malaxa was jailed. Recently they were returned to the owner who was released to resume charge of the plants.
