ARRESTS CONTINUE
AUSTRIA’S “UNEMPLOYED” FORCED INTO LABOUR GANGS LONDON, June 3. (Received June 3, at 10 p.m.) Arrests continue daily, says the Vienna correspondent of The Times, Two hundred street musicians and other professional beggars and 50 unemployed men were sent to Bremen to work on the canals and on sewer construction. Seven hundred of those arrested have been sent to Dachau concentration camp, and hundreds of others to the flooded areas in the Mur River Valley as a labour battalion. These include Jews, nonJews, doctors, lawyers and manufacturers, who have been recruited as “ unemployed," which is technically correct since the Nazis came into power. ?
