Canada Accepts 2,000
Dutch Jews Held as Collaborators
NEW YORK, (JTA)—A delega-
tion of- trade union and employer
representatives who were sent
to Europe by the Canadian gov-
ernment to choose 2,000 DP
needle trades workers as immi-
grants to the Dominion, reported
the successful conclusion of the
mission.
Max Enkin, chairman of the
five-man delegation, said Canada
was proud it had been able to
take the lead in promoting the
immigration of DPs to meet its
own need for skilled craftsmen.
Jewish and non-Jewish skilled
garment workers were considered
on an equal footing in the selec-
tion of the Canadian immigrants.
AMSTERDAM (JTA) — Pub-
lic Prosecutor N. J. G. Sikkel has
disclosed that Jewish leaders Dr.
Abraham Asscher and Prof.
David E. Cohen are being held on
charges of having facilitated the
deportation of Dutch Jews by the
Nazis.
Sikkel told the official Dutch
news agency Aneta that Asscher,
who is 88 years old and was
known in pre-war days as the
"grand old man" of Dutch Jew-
ry, and Cohen, who is a profes-
sor at Amsterdam University,
obeyed Nazi directives to regis-
ter all Jews in the Netherlands,
although they knew that the Ger-
mans planned to deport Jews to
death camps. The two headed
the National Jewish Council,

pounds of supplies as part of the
national drive for the collection
of 6,000,000 pounds of foodstuff
and clothing. This drive is not
a supplementary effort but an
actual necessity to prevent a cur-
tailment of help being offered to
European Jewry throughout the
coming winter, he added. The
dissolution of UNRRA has
thrown the complete burden of
aid on the JDC, the UJA funds
bave not been forthcoming as
was anticipated, and the need is
great and immediate, he said.
The committee has stressed
that clothing be in good wearing
condition, that it be as clean and
well packed as possible and that
shbes be tied in pairs. Layettes
are especially needed to clothe
the young children beginning
their lives in the DP camps. Can-
ned goods will be collected in the
paper bags which will be mailed
to the Jewish families through-
out the city prior to the cam-
paign, and it is urged that if peo-
ple will not be at home on Sun-
day, Dec. 7, that the contribution
of food be placed in some con-
venient place where the volun-
teer collectors can pick it up for
transporting to the SOS ware-
house.

Butzel Named Honorary
Chairman of SOS Drive
Fred M. Butzel, chairman of
the Executive Committee of the
Jewish Welfare Federation and
1947 Allied Jewish Campaign
chairman, has accepted the hon-
orary chairmanship of the SOS
hive to be held in Detroit, Sun-
day, Dec. 7, according to Mandel
-Berman, director of the 1947 SOS
ca rnpaign.
Berman stress-
ed that this
year's SOS cam-
paign in Detroit
will consist of a
one-day, all-
community col-
lection when the
SOS Committee
rn u s t collect,
pack and ship a
minimum of
300,000 pounds F. M. Butzel
of food and
clothing.
Plans now being made to ac-
complish this huge task involve
the participation of hundreds of
workers and volunteers, and per-
sonnel are urgently needed, But-
zel said. Persons with cars who
wish to volunteer in the collec-
tion of supplies, young people to
act as "pick-up assistants", pack-
ers, loaders, dispatchers, clerical
helpers are requested to con-
tact Morris Miller at the Jewish
Welfare Federation, TE. 1-1600.
If the JDC is to continue its
operations in Europe, Butzel
pointed out, it is imperative that
Detroit meet its goal of 300,000
Germans to transimit their orders
to the Jewish community.
