Dispatch Describes
Jewish Religious
Service in Germany
A United Press dispatch de-
scribes the first Jewish religious
services held on German • soil.
-The correspondent tells of the
miracle wrought by a young
Jewish Chaplain, Lt. W. Gunther
Plaut, formerly of Chicago, in
transforming a desolate shell
holed ruin into some semblance
of a synagogue.
Utilizing a deserted Gestapo
hideout near Aachen in the town
of Brand as his assembly hall,
he formed an altar from a dis-
carded packing box. The Scroll
which was used had been sal-
vaged from a synagogue burned
by the Nazis in 1938: It had been
taken to London by a Jewish
family.
A symbol of the restoration of
religious liberties, the scroll had
been returned to Germany by
Rabbinical chaplain, Manuel
Poliakof and was unrolled for
the first time behind the ArrA ri-
can lines inside occupied (Per-
many.
Twenty-five GIs of Jewish
faith sat on packing cases, wear-
ing helmets and listened with
-tear-laden eyes to the reading
of the Torah.
