U. J. A. Helps Them . _. out of This

With funds raised through the unprecedented
$100,000,000 campaign of the United Jewish
Appeal for Refugees, Overseas Needs and Pal-
estine, American Jews are assuring the survi-
val of the Jews of Europe.
OUT OF THIS (top, right) that was their lot
in Belsen and the other horror camps, the Joint
Distribution Committee, works ceaselessly to
help them forget, forget that once they lived
like this, two and three in each crude bed.
Throughout Europe the J DC has brought these
suffering souls sdlace and comfort, food and
medicine to strengthen their wracked bodies,
and the hope of a new life.
FREEDOM waves its banner high ( lower left)
as their ship comes in. These joyous arrivals to
the Jewish homeland in Palestine will find the
agencies of the United Palestine Appeal wait-
ing to give them their start in a life of dignity
and security.
A NEW LIFE (lower right) through the work
of the National Refugee Service. Mrs. Rudolph
Selan and her son Branko, 6, wait happily at
the U. S. Consulate at Niagara Falls, Canada,
for their passports to happiness in the United
States. Little Branko will soon forget his years
of terror in the Nazi internment center where
he spent most of his young life, and live a nor-
mal childhood that was never his.
