Despite the “honest understanding towards Jews” own by the Bavarian provincial government–of which he is a member in charge of stitution–strong opposition to the claims of Jews exists in the state, Dr. Philip Auerbach, German Jewish leader who is now in the United States, reported at a meeting American residents who were formerly concentration camp inmates.

Criticizing a recent statement by Gen. Lucius D. Clay, U.S. commander in trope, that Nazism is dead in Germany, Dr. Auerbach asserted that the only thing which is dead is the denazification program, under which he said almost all the accused are protected from their just punishment. He pointed out that with the exception of Bavaria, all German provinces continue to pay pensions to former Nazis ## were on the payroll of the German Government.
