Budapest dispatches said today that the Hungarian Government was permitting Jewish engineers who had lost their jobs under the numerous clausus law to take employment with German industrial firms. The action was said to be the result of a shortage of technicians in Germany. Several Jewish engineers were reported to have left for Germany to take up posts. One chemical engineer was said to have been engaged by an important chemical factory in Dusseldorf at a salary of $200 a month.
