The only clue came from the tall, blondish bachelor, who turned to a lone newsman at a hotel bar, wagged...
...help heal the wounds suffered during World War II," Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach, sole owner of the billion-dollar Krupp industrial combine, agreed last week to pay up to $2,380,000 to former Jewish slave laborers. Under the agreement, negotiated with the same Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany that won a $6,430,000 settlement for former Jewish slave laborers from the I. G. Farben chemical trust in 1957, Krupp will pay 5,000 marks ($1,190) to any Jew who can prove he worked under duress for a Krupp enterprise...
