To the Editor of the "Nogrü-CHiwA DaiLy News"
Sm—I wonder if your readers have really grasped the significance of the news published in the papers today to the effect that there are over 100 Jewish millionaires in Austri of whom 27 are further that there are over 1,300 Jews in Austria with capitals of from Marks 200,000 to 1,000,000 and that the average capital of the total Jewish population of Austria, ie. some 48,000 families, amounts to 49,000 Marks per family.
If anybody can teli me of any racial community anywhere else in the world which has an average capital of M.49,000 (or Shanghai $126,000) per family, I should be glad to hear of it.
It seems to me that the paying of the fne imposed on the Jews in Germany should not prove very difficult after all, especially as those Jews who possess less than M.5,000 (or Shanghai $12,500) are not obliged to pay any part of this fine. But apparently there are very few who only possess as little as $12,500 considering that the average in Austria is $125,000 per family. It does give one to think. doesn't it?
