Also new government decrees were announced so that Jewish children in schools had to be seated apart and in June 1933 the expulsion of Jewish professionals begun. With the 'Anschluss' in March 1938, a new period of intensified anti-Jewish persecutions and measures commenced, steadily increasing and leading up to the great Progrom of November 1938. After the outbreak of the war speacial restrictions on Jews, with regard on food, clothing and heating, the introduction of compulsary labour for man, women and children, were some of the more conspicuous measures during the first 18 month of the war.
