Germany to Auction
Hidden Works of Heine

MARBURG (JTA)—A special
auction will be held this month
in this old German university
town of recently discovered
manuscripts left by Heinrich
Heine.
The manuscripts, including
some historical notes, were
found in Paris where the great
German-Jewish poet died in
1956.
Heine had been anathema to
Germans even before the Hitler
regime when his works were
banned by the Nazis. The auc-
tioning of Heine works here is
considered a manifestation of
the new Germany's attitude
toward the Jewish people.

Mr.. Greenblatt Dies;
Brought 42 Orphans
to Canada in 1927

Nathan Greenblatt, a Detroit
building contractor, who was
in the forefront of a move-
ment to bring a group of
refugee orphans from Europe
in the 1920's, died on March
31. He had resided at 2981
Clements.
Mr. Greenblatt, a native of
Russia who at one time served
in the Czar's Army, came to
the United States early in the
century. After entering the
contracting business in New
York, he moved to Detroit in
1914 when the Ford Motor
Co. made changes in its hourly
Work day and he saw a boom
developing here.
Here, he was a founder of
the Mezeritcher Aid Society,
which raised funds to aid
residents of his old home town,
just east of Warsaw.
In 1927, he sought to bring
a group of orphans to this
country, but because of the
quota restrictions placed on
Polish emigration by the Im-
migration Act of 1924, Mr.
Greenblatt learned it was im-
possible to gain U.S. entry for
them.
He went to Ottawa, the Cana-
dian capitol, and there learned
that he could bring the or-
phans to Canada. After a trip
to Warsaw to clear away the
red tape, a group of 42 or-
phans was brought to George-
town, a community just west
of Toronto.
Here, the Mezeritcher Society
built a dormitory, hired a
manager and established the
youngsters in productive efforts.
Many of the group later con-
tributed much toward making
Toronto the leading garment
center of Canada.
Services for Mr. Greenblatt
were held at Ira Kaufman
Chapel on Thursday. He leaves
his wife, Anna; two sons,
Michael Greene and Albert
Greenblatt; seven grandsons
and a great granddaughter.
