The Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany today announced here that the Compensation Treuhand GmbH, Staufenstrasse 29s, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, has been designated to carry out the agreement concluded between the Conference and the Friedrich Krupp Company last December.
Former Jewish concentration camp inmates who can establish that they did forced labor during the war at Krupp factories–such as Essen, Berlin/Neukoelin, Fuenfteichen–and have not submitted applications to the Compensation Treuhand GmbH, whether directly or through their representatives, must do so no later than December 31, 1960.
Informal applications should contain at least the following data: first and last names, maiden names, place and date of birth, exact present address, name of the Krupp factory where forced labor was performed and the length of service. Applicants will then receive a questionnaire from the Compensation Treuhand to aid it in checking the information contained in the application.
