Content: Abraham Kuenstler, residing in Ra'anana, Israel, sought compensation for damages to property (Vertreibungsschäden) and household items (Hausratentschädigung) lost when his father, Kelman Kuenstler, was forced to flee Kanczuga, Poland, at the start of the war. Kelman Kuenstler later perished in Zborow in 1941. The applicant, Abraham Kuenstler, had emigrated from Kanczuga to Palestine in 1935. The application was rejected on November 15, 1971, by the Ausgleichsamt Bremen on the grounds that Kelman Kuenstler could not be recognized as a German ethnic, a prerequisite for compensation under the law. The United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Frankfurt am Main were involved in the case.
