Austrian Chancellor Joset Klaus dissociated himself today from every form of anti-Semitism in replying to Communist charges that in 1932 he opposed a Jewish university professor.
Volkstimme, a Communist paper, printed a facsimile of a letter written by the Chancellor at that time opposing the professor. In commenting on the publication, the Chancellor said that after three decades, he now had opinions different from those he held when he was 22 years old. He repeated the statement he made when he was elected head of the Austrian Peoples party in which he repudiated every direct or indirect form of anti-Semitism.
