and rehabilitation programs for
the American Jewish Joint Dis-
tribution Committee.

eral of JDC, supervised urgent

30 countries, involving more

heads of virtually every country
in Europe, and with leading

pany Earl G. Harrison on a sur-
vey tour of the then newly

than 500,000 Jews f r om dis-
tressed areas in Europe, North
Africa and the Middle East.
For his work on behalf of
refugees, he was awarded the
Legion of Honor of France
and was decorated by Poland
and Hungary.

institution that has since
awarded him an honorary de-

ters, he received his doctorate

mitics and Semitic literature,
