German DP
End Predicted

PARIS.— (WNS)—Liquidation
of the Jewish DP camps in Ger-
many before the end of this year
was predicted here by Harry
Greenstein, advisor on Jewish af-
fairs to the American Military
Government.

Speaking at the world congress
of ORT, Greenstein set the end
of September, 1949, as the liqui-
dation date. He said the main
problem now facing Jewish lead-
ership is "to help to adjust the
Jews who must or will remain
in Europe in the years to come"
and to help "the speedy and ef-
fective adjustment of the over-
wehning majority of Jews who,
when they leave Displaced Per-
sons camps, settle in Israel."

The four-day congress was
opened by Judge Leon Meiss, of
France. Among the speakers at
the opening session were Dr. Jo-
seph Schwarts, European director
of the JDC, and A. Gilboa, Is-
raeli Consul General. The ses-
sion was attended by 112 dele-
gates from 23 countries.
