Women's Emergency
Food Committee Still
Sending Out Packages

The Women's Emergency Food
Committee organized for the pur-
pose of sending parcels of food
itnd clothing to displaced and des-
titute Jews are busy packing par-
cels at their headquarters, 12219
Dexter Blvd., every Monday, Tues-
day and Wednesday afternoon,
from 2 to 5 and evenings from
7:30 to 10:00 p.m. They need help-
ers to come and help them pack.
These parcels are sent direct to
destitute families and chaplains
who distribute the contents to dis-
placed Jews in camps. A typical
package contains food, medical
supplies, notions and new and
used clothing.
Last week, over one hundred
parcels were mailed out — 25-lb.
parcels to chaplains and 11-1b.
parcels to families. The women
have been working hard to ac-
complish this task. An appeal is
made to the community for con-
tributions of food and clothing
which can be left at 12219 Dexter.
One parcel may mean the salva-
tion of a family. Money contribu-
tions should be sent to Mrs. J.
Sperka, treasurer, 1938 Tuxedo.
For information, call Mrs. Max
Wohlgelernter, president, Tyler
6-7464; Mrs. James Brindze, Town-
send 6-6800, in charge of packing,
or Mrs. A. Weisberg, Townsend

ing Palestine's returning Jewish

ing upon "brothers in arms in all

Few Germans Tried
To Aid Jews, Says
Berlin Chief Rabbi

WASHINGTON (WNS) -- Rabbi
Leo Baeck, former chief rabbi of
Berlin and first German Jew to
visit the United States since the
war, declared here at a press con-
ference that relatively few Ger-
mans had sought to protect Jews.
Rabbi Buck, who was im-
prisoned at Theresienstadt from
January, 1943, until May of 1945,
when he was freed by Russian
troops, disclosed that of the 200,-
000 German Jews in 1939 only
4,000 are alive today that of the
150,000 who lived in Austria before
the war there are only 3,000 sur-
vivors.
Declaring that he hoped that it
would be possible to arrange for
them to leave Germany imme-
diately, Dr. Baeck disclosed that
most of the 4,000 surviving Ger-
man Jews are between the ages of
55 and 60. Many of the German
Jewish children, he said, had
found refuge abroad. He em-
phasized that President Truman's
message promising to expedite
American visas for displaced per-
sons was a first step and a "big
comfort." At the same time he ex-
pressed the hope that the British
Government would follow suit.
Stressing that it was impossible
for Jews to remain in Germany
because of the fact that the minds
of Germans from four-year-olds
up have been poisoned against the
Jews, Rabbi Baeck said he felt
that it was even more essential to
make arangements for the depart-
ure of the displaced Jews most of
whom, he added, do not want to
return to their former homes. He
said Palestine was the only hope
of the surviving Jews.
Expressing hope that it would be
possible to find homes abroad,
preferably in Palestine, for the
150,000 Jews from Poland, Ru-
mania and other central European
countries who are among the dis-
placed persons now in the Allied
zones of occupation, Dr. Baeck re-
ported an improvement in the
treatment of Jews in the displaced
persons camps. He hoped that ef-
forts would be made to help the
Jews get rid of the "camp men-
tality" produced by years of mis-
treatment and segregation. He
suggested that the American hil-
thorities utilize hotels in Bavaria
to house Jews instead of keeping
them in camps.

Have Full Approval Of
The Vaad Horabonim

Detroit Jews are invited to the
grand opening of the new kosher
restaurant to be held this Sunday,
Jan. 20, and to be known as

taurant and catering circles, are
pleased to announce that theirs is
the only kosher restaurant in this
city which has the approval of
the Vaad Horabonim of Detroit
as being completely kosher. In
fact, the Finkels were brought
here from Chicago for this ex-
press purpose.

has long looked forward to a res-
taurant which combines strict
kashruth with the finest in good
food and refined atmosphere. The
present place, located at Linwood
and Taylor, formerly D( utch's,
promises to give complete satis-
faction in this regard.
