3 Refugee Teachers
From Europe Find
Positions in U.S.
. Clubs, Firehose Drive Helpless Exodus Jews Off Boats
NEW YORK (JP*)—Three of
18 refugee teachers, who just
completed a course in the Teach-
ers Institute of Yeshiva Univer-
sity, have already found employ-
ment in religious schools in New
York, New Jersey and Connecti-
cut and the remainder of the
group is expected to find posi-
tions in the near future, the
United Service for New Amer-
icans announced.
The teachers, all of whom
studied in yeshivoth in Europe
before the war, were brought to
this country under the auspices
of U.S.N.A. which also aided their
studies at Yeshiva. The courses,
under the direction of Dr. Pincas
Churgin, were designed especial-
ly to -prepare them for teaching
posts in American Jewish religious
centers.
Two hundred orthodox youths
who survived Nazi camps and are
now students in DP camps in
Germany and Austria, will be
brought to the United States
under the auspices of the United
Lubavitcher Yeshivoth which will
train them as rabbis to return to
Europe to rebuild destroyed Jew-
ish communities.

to be unloaded. Helpless Jewish men, women and children were

Many Nazi Fugitives
At Liberty in Spain
NEW YORK (JPS)—A grow-
ing colony of Nazi fugitives from
Germany is flourishing in Spain;
they're at liberty to come and go
as they please, Sam Pope Brewer,
New York Times correspondent,
reports from Barcelona.
`'Once arrived in Spain the Ger-
mans are left at liberty if they
can find a financial guarantor to
assure that they will not become
public charges," Brewer writes.
"One small group of German resi-
dents has been guaranteeing all
Germans who come to its at-
tention and apparently it has
large funds at its disposal for
posting bonds when required.
Many do not require bonds be-
cause they arrive with Spanish
passports."
vied them to the detention camp Poppendorf. The memory of
the infamous Belsen camp, which is not far from Poppendorf,
hangs heavily over the place where 4,400 displaced Jews will
have time to meditate on the promises of a so-called democratic
world which, during the war and on the day of liberation, talked
of human dignity and an end to indecency and brutality.

Bnai Brith Plans
To Resume Its
Overseas Activity
C. (JPS)—
WASHINGTON, D.
Plans for an integrated program
to revitalize Bnai Brith activities
overseas and to create a foreign
office in Europe are now being
drafted under the direction of the
organization's executive commit-
tee, Frank Goldman, president,
announced here. The plan will
encompass all Bnai Brith depart-
ments such as the Anti-Defama-
tion League, the Hillel Founda-
tions, the Bnai Brith Youth Or-
ganization and the Vocational
Service Bureau.
The program will be centered
in a foreign office with headquar-
ters in Europe. Overseas activity
is not a new enterprise for Bnai
Brith. It goes back to 1851, when
Bnai Brith's appeal to Secretary
of State Daniel Webster and
Henry Clay, then chairman of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee, against a new treaty with
Switzerland, which recognized
limitations on the rights of Jews
in certain Swiss areas, led to the
modifications of that pact in
1857.
The first foreign Bnai Brith
lodge was founded in Berlin in
1882. In 1933, units existed in
more than 30 countries
There are now active Bnai
Brith men's lodges, women's
chapters and institutions in 26
countries: Great Britain, Pales-
tine, Romania, Egypt, Bulgaria,
Australia, China, Denmark, The
Netherlands, France, North Africa,
Hungary, Sweden, Union of South
Africa, Switzerland, Czechoslo-
vakia, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile,
Uruguay, Ecuador, Cuba, Mexico
and Panama.
