:09:01
...was the haste with which my parents
got me back into the house.
:09:13
Suddenly l couldn´t go
to my normal school anymore.
:09:16
l was sent off to a makeshift school...
:09:19
...at the end of the tramline.
:09:23
And I did it aIone, even at age 7.
:09:25
I went to the end of the Iine, and I wouId
just waIk on untiI I came to this house.
:09:31
Word got back to my parents that while
on the tram, l was a very talkative boy.
:09:35
l told them all the bad things
that Herr Hitler was doing.
:09:39
I thought that "´Herr"´ was his first name,
of course.
:09:44
And word got back to my parents
that maybe...
:09:46
...I shouIdn´t be traveIing aIone.
:09:49
And my father then came with me.
:09:51
He didn´t say much, he hardIy ever did...
:09:54
...but he Iet it be known...
:09:56
...that it wasn´t wise to go around
saying bad things about HitIer.
:10:05
ln the weeks following
the annexation of Austria...
:10:08
...Nazi authorities had enacted
all the anti-Jewish laws...
:10:12
...it had taken Hitler five years
to put into place in Germany.
:10:21
For anyone coming from Vienna,
it was very dramatic.
:10:24
The reality of it struck me
when my parents talked about...
:10:28
...giving up the apartment,
that we had to Ieave.
:10:31
That was something,
you know, the bottom faIIs out.
:10:35
Everything faIIs out of you.
:10:38
This is all l knew...
:10:39
...and we had to give it up,
we had to leave.
:10:42
That was probably the biggest blow l had.
:10:45
Just the idea...
:10:47
...it´II aII end the way it is.

My mother was an activist.
