BERLIN, Dec. 81 d.N.s0.
German universities will be
stripped of some so educators,
and "non-aryan" households of
approximately 10000 female ser
wants as the Nuremberg laws
against Jews go into effect at
midnight tonight.
At the same time, about $4,000
Jewish statesmen will be deprived
O. their livelihood as the law
revoking the licenses Of all mon
Aryan" statesmen goes into effect.
The process of diSmissing
maids from "non-Aryan" house
holds, and of "pensioning off"
affected professors has been 60
ing on for weeks. but the exact
figures from the % universities
and technical colleges in Ger
many are at present unavailable.
Figures Are Compiled
The ministry of culture has
been compiling figures on the
number of professors "penSioned
off" and will release these stat
t1stics after the first week in
January.
Berlin University is now without
Prof. Julius Pokorny, famous
philosopher and jurist, who was
an instructor in the Celtic Ian
guage.
At Halle University, one Of the
largest in Germany, four profes-
SorS have been retired on pensions,
namely, Paul Friedlander, head Of
the classical philology depart
Ipent; Richard Laquer, head Of the
ancient history department: AL
fred Hauptmann, chief Of the
pSychiatricS department, and DR..
Martin Kochmann, head of the
pSychiatricS pharmalogical inSti-
tuteS.
1t was understood, although un-
confirmed, that some persons in
government ministries also will re-
tire as the new laws go into effect.
The government claims there
will be no hardships as a result of
dismissal Of the girls, since there
already is a servant shortage. Non
Aryan households, however, may
find themselves in a predicament
IN getting new help.
Numerous extensions on many
questions are being made in
horderline cases. On many spe-
cial applications for permission to
Keep a maid inspectors examined
the location of the maids bed
room in relation to the rest Of the
household before deciding.
The Judische Rundschau, Off
cial Jewish newspaper, reprints
without comment the Nuremberg
laws, and also carries a page Of
questions and answers on servant
problems for anxious non-AryanS.
The American consulate has
been beleaguered with queries on
whether foreign non-AryanS must
give up their Aryan maids. It
was understood the matter might
be taken up at the foreign office
If necessary on the grounds such
q ruling would be tantamomt to
discrimination against American
Glt1zenS.
:. Board Aids Girls
A government radio broadcast
was made announcing a municipal
welfare board would be kept open
today and tomorrow to advise
girls dismissed from service and
to arrange sleeping accommoda-
tions for them at public and other
RSylumS.
Jewish charity organizations, al
ready strained to the limit trying
to take care of tho1 thrown out
of employment by Nazi measures,
today expressed doubt that they
will be able to take care Of the
thousands more affected by the
revocation of the licenses Of all
'non-Aryan" salesmen.
While the law is in keeping with
the general Nazi policy of elimi- |
mating Jews from German eco
nomic life, it is said the reason
for this specific action was a be-
lief by authorities that Jewish !
travelling statesmen were circulaE-
ing anti-Nazi "rumors."
