A Dutch Jewish negotiating committee has been set up to press claims against the West German Government on behalf of Dutch Jewish victims of the Nazis, it was disclosed here today.
The committee is demanding 38,400,000 deutschemarks for those Jews deprived of their liberty through incarceration in concentration camps; indemnification for 1,674 widows and 1,900 orphans of Jews done to death, and compensation for several hundred Jews whose health suffered in slave labor camps.
