Protestants and one
Jewish—gave their
life jackets to GIs

STARVED AND RAGGED, these prisoners
. were found by American troops in German
concentration camps. Without food, clothing
and shelter, they will perish. Support of the
UJA, through the Detroit $2,000,000 Allied
Jewish Campaign, can save them.
These are among the thousands
of Jewish refugees who look to
the UJA for support and who
hope for settlement in Palestine
with Detroit Jewry's help. •
