Content: Dr. Israel Auerbach, residing in Jerusalem, Israel, sought compensation for harm to his profession as General Secretary for the 'Verein zur Gründung und Erhaltung der Akademie für die Wissenschaft des Judentums' in Berlin, a position he held from October 1, 1921, to October 1, 1933. Based on the guidelines of the Federal Minister of the Interior from April 9, 1953, he was granted a monthly compensation of DM 572.26, effective October 1, 1952. His pension was later re-assessed based on the BEG (§ 31d) and recalculated to DM 982.66 monthly from January 1, 1956, until his death on May 9, 1956. Following his death, his widow, Bertha Auerbach, continued the application, seeking her widow's pension, which was granted at DM 409.44 monthly, effective June 1, 1956, and later recalculated to DM 589.59 monthly. Their daughter Lea Rosenberg, an employee of the URO in Haifa, also pursued the claims on behalf of her parents. The applicant's brother, Heinrich Auerbach, passed away in late 1953. The case was handled by the URO offices in Tel Aviv and Haifa, with involvement from the Advisory Committee of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany in Bonn.
