Franz Olah

Franz Olah (13 March 1910 – 4 September 2009) was an Austrian politician who served as the country's Interior Minister from 1963 until 1964 as a member of the Social Democratic Party (SPÖ).

He also began developing ties with Austrian trade unions and the Social Democratic Party of Austria during this period of his life.

Olah was arrested by the Nazis following the Anschluss and deported on the very first train of Austrian prisoners to the Dachau concentration camp in 1938.

The party garnered more than 3% of the vote in the 1966 Austrian legislative election, but failed to win any seats in Parliament.

In 1969, the Democratic Progressive Party won three seats on the Vienna city council.
