Karl Guenther von Hase, chief spokesman for the German Government, rejected today the contention of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany which has challenged the Government’s new draft budget bill as unconstitutional.
He told newsmen at a press conference that the Cabinet today discussed the budget curtailment bill and the protests by organizations of Nazi persecutees who deem the draft unconstitutional. The Federal Government, he said, “rejects these allegations.”
