Curfew Placed on Jewish Camp
After 2 DPs Die in Munich Riot
MUNICH, (JTA)—A dusk-to-dawn curfew was clamped
Town on the Landsberg camp for displaced Jews following a
battle between German civilians and Jewish DPs, during which
two of the latter were killed and many injured. Forty of the
wounded required hospitalization.
According to the best available information, the disturb-
ance began when a crowd of more than 1,000 DPs swept into
the town and attacked German civilians, who, according to
rumors, had attacked several Jews. It continued for six
hours, before American military police succeeded in forcing
the DPs back into their camp.
The rioting was more severe because hundreds of Germans
were in the streets en route to or from polling places.
The issue reached its climax when 20 displaced persons
went on a hunger strike and hundreds shouted epithets at
American troops which had interceded, charging them with
anti-Semitism "worse than the Nazis."
Temple Beth El Launches
Campaign on Behalf of
$2,000,000 Drive
A campaign in miniature is be-
ing conducted among the Jewish
school children of Detroit, in be-
half of the $2,000,000 Allied Jew-
ish Campaign. Organizing indi-
vidual rallies in each school, the
children have planned, in cooper-
ation with their teachers, to pre-
sent appropriate readings from
the Psalms of David, and talks by
pupils and members of the school
staffs. Each class will adopt its
own quota for the campaign.
Temple Beth El already has
launched its campaign, following
special assemblies on April 6 and
7. Speakers from the Allied
Jewish Campaign Speakers' Bu-
reau included Mrs. Leonard
Lewis and Mrs. David Cooper.
Slides prepared from the United
Jewish Appeal "Comic Book"
outlined graphically the needs
and purposes of the Joint Distri-
bution Committee, the National
Refugee Service and the United
Palestine Appeal.
A social service committee,
headed by Jerome Bronson, has
been entrusted with the duties of
checking statistics on the cam-
paign, making appeals and fol-
lowing up other phases of the
campaign. Other members of the
committee include Kenneth Ad-
ler, Joyce Edgar and Doris
Kirsch/harm. A secretary has
been selected for each class to
keep a record of pledges and
contributions.
This Saturday and Sunday, fol-
low-up assemblies will be held,
at which the class secretaries
will report the progress of the
campaign. The three highest
classes in each department—pri-
mary, intermediate and high
school—will have candles lighted
in their honor on a special
Menorah.
Staff members assisting in the
campaign include Rabbi Bene-
dict Glazer, Mrs. Blanche Men-
delsohn, supervisor, and Miss
