Page Four DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and The Legal Chronic,* ay ternbir 7S1945 THE JEWISH SCENE OVERSd Fri iA Recently, the first meeting of the Allied Control Council for Germany was held in Berlin, with the United States, Britain, Rus- sia and France proclaiming as- sumption of the government of the Reich. Gone was the Nazi geopoliticos' dream of a great German empire in the heartland of Europe. For the present shorn to its December 31, 1937, borders, Germany was divided into four occupation zones, greater Berlin remaining under inter-Allied gov- ernment authority. With the complete Allied ad- ministrative occupation of former Nazi territory, came a stiffening of attitude toward the German Robert Shosteck Is Appointed Director due to an irate public opinion general staff. Whether this was due to an irate public opinion which had become alarmed over the alleged gentlemanly camarad- erie between Allied and junker officers, or to the fact that as Allied administrators took over, Nazi intermediaries were no long- er needed, is still a question. At any rate, all people sincerely in- terested in the preservation of the peace welcomed the firm stand taken by General Eisen- hower and British Ficll Marshal Montgomery's declaration of June 21 that the German g , neral staff must be broken up and its officers isolated in camps ou'side the Reich. turn from German concentration camps. Stateless persons, and Jews from Germany and Austria, most of whom do not wish to be repatriated to the locales of their martyrdom, are by-passed. They sit in the barracks where they were decimated at the hands of the Nazis, and watch with grow- ing bitterness the exodus of others, non-Jews, from the hate- ful German soil. In many cases, U. S. military authorities, assuming that Jews from Belgium, Holland and other countries, will be cared for by representatives of these nations, leave them strictly alone. It is only later discovered that these countries do not recognize these Jews as their nationals, since they are non-citizens, even though they had maintained years-long residence in these lands. (People unfamiliar with Belgian citizen- ship laws, for instance, may won- der why Jews living for many years in that country never be- came citizens.
