Mercedes-Benz Admits
Nazi-Era Slave Labor Use

Bonn (JTA) — The Daim-
ler-Benz Corp., manufacturer
of the prestigious Mercedes
car, formally acknowledged
that it employed thousands of
slave laborers during the Nazi
era in a report prepared for it
by an historian, Prof. Hans
Pohl, released here last week.
The report, however, makes
no reference to possible
reparations for surviving
slave laborers or their
families. According to the
report, some 5,000 slave
laborers were employed by
Daimler-Benz in 1941 and the
number rose to 18,000 in
1943, most of them recruited
from among concentration

camp inmates, including large
numbers of Jews.
The slave laborers received
no compensation whatever
and, near the end of the war,
were so badly treated that
they could not work.
The company ordered the
report last year after it was
criticized for the way it
handled claim by former slave
laborers. Daimler-Benz re-
jected them initially on
grounds that they had
neither legal nor moral stand-
ing. But later it signaled
readiness to discuss the mat-
ter with Jewish and other
organizations representing
former slave laborers.
