Content: Selma Epstein, later Shulamit Eytan, residing in Tel Aviv, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to profession. Before the Nazi era and in its early years, she worked for various Jewish organizations in Germany. Her last position was as an office manager at the Reichsvertretung der Juden in Deutschland, from which she resigned on September 30, 1938, to prepare for her emigration to Palestine on April 20, 1939. Her right to a pension was initially granted with monthly payments of 304 DM from November 27, 1954, but a subsequent decision on March 28, 1960, denied increases and allowances, classifying her last position as a substitute employment. A later application for these allowances was rejected on January 11, 1962, on the grounds that the Reichsvertretung did not grant a legal right to a pension. The case involved representation by URO Tel Aviv, URO Cologne, the Advisory Committee for Pension Claims of Jewish Community Employees of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany, and The Jewish Agency for Palestine. She was dismissed from a previous position on September 30, 1933, based on the provisions of the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service of April 7, 1933.
