Dr. Nahum Goldmann, president of the Committee for Jewish Claims on Austria, received today an invitation from the Austrian Government to send a delegation to Vienna to resume talks on the Committee’s request for compensation for Jews who suffered damages under the Nazi regime in Austria.
Dr. Goldmann indicated that the joint board of the Committee will meet in New York to consider the invitation and the action to be taken on it. The Austrian Government would like the Committee to send a “small delegation” for the resumption of negotiations.
The talks, according to a decision yesterday by the Austrian Government, will start on May 5 and conclude on May 11. (Representatives of the Alliance of Christians of Jewish Origin have also been invited by the Vienna Government, the JTA correspondent cabled today from Vienna).
