Five thousand Jews lost their jobs in the first six months after enactment of the first anti-Jewish law in Hungary, it was disclosed today by Alexander Reppler, general secretary of the Jewish Community, in a lecture at the Free Jewish University. The law, which is to be replaced by one imposing more drastic limitations upon Jews in the nation’s economic and cultural life, had provided for dismissal of only 1,500 during that period, Mr. Reppler said.
