Belgian Christians To Retutn Children To Jewish Custody LONDON (J P S) —Many Christian families in Belgium, who sheltered Jewish war orph- ans during the German occupa- tion, are willing to return them to Jewish homes if the children are assured of proper care, • M. Goldmuntz, treasurer of the Bel- gian Jewish Committee in Lon- don, just returned from Bel- gium, reported at a meeting of the executive of the United Jew- ish relief in London. While some of the non-Jewish foster parents are reluctant to give up the children, some Christ- ians say that if Jewish child _ren are left in Catholic homes it is only natural -that they will be brought up as Catholics. There are 3,200 Jewish children in Bel- gium who must be placed in Jew- ish homes, Mr. Goldmuntz re- ports. There are 20,000 Jews now in Belgium, mostly in Brussels and Antwerp, and a consistoire has been formed representing all the B e 1 Eibi a n Jewish communities. Kosher food is provided as far as possible but there is a lack of Shochetim (kosher slaughterers), Mr. Goldmuntz reports. 200 Jews in Colognes Emerge, from Ruins, Ask AMC for Food COLOGNE, (JTA)—Two-hun- dred Jews have emerged from the ruins of Cologne and ap- •pealed to the Allied Military Government for food cards, the correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency was told by AMG officials. Most of these are married to non-Jews, or are the children of "mixed marriages". Because they were in hiding for several months to avoid being shipped into the interior of Ger- many, they had been compelled to forego food cards. All synagogues had been burned by the Nazis and the Al- lied bon-Things finished the job. There are a few other Jews in Cologne besides the 200 who have applied for food cards. Two were found among the 80 pris- oners released - from Gestapo headquarters and 12 foreign Jews have passed through the wooden . barracks on the outside of Cologne which are being used as a sorting • pla,ce far displaced persons. In an old pile of clothes' in this camp were found ghostly remnants of the Jewish popula- tion of Cologne.
