By EDWIN ROSENBERG

President, United Service for
New Americans

Through t h e "golden door"
where the Statue of Liberty pre-
sides over New York Harbor, a
new pilgrimage of the oppressed
to the United States began during
the year 5706. It was one of the
happiest events of the year for
American Jews.
For the Jewish survivors of 13
years of terror and war in Eu-
rope and for Jewish exiles scat-
tered throughout the world, it
held one of the brightest hopes
for the year 5707.
Once more America reaffirmed
the great tradition of asylum for
the persecuted, which has been a

Those who have relatives await-
ing them are helped to find one
another in the crowd by the pub-
lic address system.
Each ship is met by a large
group of professionally trained
and supervised volunteers from
the New York, Brooklyn, Newark
and other sections of NCJW in
Metropolitan New York.
These women cheerfully spend
long hours steering new arrivals
through customs, answering ques-
tions for newcomers and waiting

relocation.
The day following their arrival
they attend a meeting at which
speakers inform them in Yiddish
and German of the advantages of
living in a community where they
will have the friendly assistance
of an organized Jewish group in
re-establishing themselves a n d
quickly adjusting to American
life.
Interested newcomers are then
advised individually by resettle-
ment consultants, who give them
expert assistance in selecting a
community according to the in-
terests and needs of each family
or individual.
Without recourse to high-pres-
sure methods, this program has
enabled 60 per cent of new arri-
vals without American relatives,
and whose visas are based on the
USNA corporate affidavit, to go
promptly to communities outside
of the port of entry.
As the United Service for New
Americans embarks on its first
year of service, the thousands of
devoted men and women aiding
newcomers in American Jewish
communities will derive added
combined resources, experience,
and prestige represented in this
foremost national agency serving
the foreign born in the United
States.

had been played by the privately
supported program of organized
aid in facilitating, with the co-
operation of local community
groups throughout the country,
the adjustment of these new
Atnericans.
In previous years by far the
largest part of the responsibili-
ties set forth by President Tru-
man had been carried by two
agencies: The National Refugee
Service and the National Service
to Foreign Born of the National
Council of Jewish Women.
Together, they offered the new-
comers a complete program of
aid which provided all the ser-
vices essential to their integra-
tion into American life. Issuance
of the Truman directive put
squarely up to these two agencies
a new task of far-reaching impor-
tance.
FORCES ARE POOLED

Almost immediately NRS and
NCJW pooled forces to assist the
Government in liquidating the
Oswego Shelter by providing mi-
gration, assistance, transportation,
and resettlement services for its
refugee residents. Their immigra-
tion under quota visas was the
first practical application of the
Truman directive.
The complete program of wel-
fari services provided for new-
comers goes into operation as
soon as they descend from their
ship to the pier. Immigrants come
