20 Years Ago
Jewish refugee youngsters like these were among the 6,000 adults and children who fled
from France to Switzerland and Spain to escape the threat of deportation by the Nazis to
the East. The camera caught them at play in one of the homes of the Swiss Jewish
relief committee, which is supported by the Joint Distribution Committee. To meet the
sudden requirements of these thousands of destitute and homeless people, and at the same
time continue the normal relief programs on behalf of the thousands of other refugees,
the J. D. C. increased its allocation to Switzerland and Spain. The Swiss Committee alone
receives $60,000 monthly from the J. D. C. The Allied Jewish Campaign is the benefic-
iary of the J. D. C. in Detroit.
