The “Daily Telegraph’s” Prague correspondent says French Danube tug with Hungarian permission, rescued the Jews marooned by Austrian Nazis on a breakwater in mid-Danube. The Jewish community at Bratislava immediately sent blankets, food and other comforts to the refugees who are to remain on the tug, pending international agreement regarding their future. Meanwhile Nazi Storm Troops again arrested twenty-five other Jews, originally members of the party and lodged them in an improvised prison at Kittsee, where the villagers protested against their ill-treatment. The Nazis then removed them to an unknown destination. It was reported from Prague yesterday that 51 Austrian Jews, of all ages, and both sexes, were placed on a breakwater in the middle of the Danube by Nazi Storm Troopers. The unfortunates were denied entry to Czechoslovakia and to Hungary.
