_ Friday, March 22, 1946 THE JEWISH NEWS JDC Assists Jews in Berlin With Supplementary Aid Appointed on National Famine Emergency Council NEW YORK, (JTA)—Within the ruins of Berlin today, 7,000 German Jews are coming to life out of hiding and concentration camps for the first time in more than 13 years, Philip Skorneck, Joint Distribution Committee re- presentative in t h e German capital, reported at a press con- ference held here under the auspices of the United Jewish Appeal of Greater New York. Mr. Skorneck, who returned to the U. S. after carrying out re- lief and rehabilitation activities in Berlin for six months, said that "Berlin's Jews are engaged iii a grim struggle for existence in a cold, roofless, inflation- ridden city. Most of the German Jews now living in Berlin are 'Refugee Doctor' Magazine Prints Picture Story of A 'New Citizen In an illustrated article -en- titled "Refugee Doctor," the cur- rent issue of Look magazine sym- pathetically a n d dramatically , tells the story of Dr. Frederick Bohensky, a native of Czecho- slovakia now living in Copen- hagen, New York, as typical of the "new citizens of the U. S.— which boasts of Plymouth Rock but was populated by Ellis Is- land". A series of nine photographs shows Dr. Bohensky practicing his profession and mingling with neighbors in the upstate New York town where he and Mrs. Bohensky settled with the aid of the National Refugee Service, whose work is supported by the $100,000,000 campaign of the United Jewish Appeal. Among the pictures are sever- al showing him working at his desk, on which are photographs "of his brother, mother, father— killed by Germans"; examining school children; checking up on a baby he delivered; and going out on skiis to visit a patient at night in a secluded farmhouse. The Look article points out that this "refugee', fulfills his duties, earns his way as a citizen of America." -. " Veterans, Chaplains Opposed to Special Jewish Vet Groups NEW YORK, (JTA) — Organ- ization of Jewish veterans into specifically Jewish groups, was opposed at a conference here of former enlisted men and Jewish chaplains, sponsored by the Jew- ish Reconstructionist Foundation. Most of the speakers asserted that their problems and interests as veterans were no different from those of veterans of other faiths and did not warrant the establishment of special associa- tions. Mrs. Rose Jacobs, only woman member of the Jewish Agency executive, who presided at the meeting, praised "the spirit of defiance with which our broth- ers in Palestine are withstanding the threat to their existence." All speakers stressed the need for immediate opening of the gates of Palestine to the displac- ed and refugee Jews of Europe. Most of them reported that they had been attracted to Zionism as a result of their war experiences. In a message to the confer- ence, General Omar N. Bradley, head of the Veterans Administra- tion, paid tribute to the war rec- ord of men and women of the Jewish faith.

"Many of them—beaten and starved and broken by the Nazis —are unable to work. They live on a government dole of 35 marks per person each week or 60 marks ($6) a couple. Because it is almost impossible to live on this, the JDC provides 100 marks per person each month to several thousand German Jews." Czech Government Doing Most for Repatriates NEW YORK—The Czechoslo- vakian government has done more to repatriate Jews from Nazi concentration camps in Ger- many and Austria and to curb anti-Semitism than any of the other governments of Europe, Dr. Imrich Rosenberg, Czech govern- ment official and leader of the 42,000 surviving Jews of Czecho- slovakia, declared at a press con- ference at the national head- ,quarters of the United Jewish Appeal. Dr.. Rosenberg, .who arrived in this country from Prague at the .invitation of American Jewish leaders to participate in the $100,000,000 UJA campaign, km- pilasized, that the seeds of anti- Semitism planted by the Nazis in Czechoslovakia were too deep to be uprooted overnight. Declaring that the Jewish sur- vivors returning to Czechoslo- vakia after years in Nazi con- centration camps "found it psychologically difficult" to start life anew in a country where anti-Semitism continued to exist, he said that until such time as the Czech government is able to restore confiscated Jewish pro- perties to their rightful owners many would continue to be de- pendent on the support of Am- erican Jews Jhrough the UJA. This help to Czechoslovakia's Jews is extended by the Joint Distribution Committee, one of the three constituent agencies of the UJA. .
