Washington Reacts to U.S. Employment of Former Nazi General
WASHINGTON (JTA) —
United States Army authorities
informed the Jewish War Vet-
erans of the U.S.A. that an
investigation has been launched
in the issue of the employment
by the United States of an ex-
Nazi general, whose remarks
about Jewish victims at- Dachau
caused an international contro-
versy.
The Defense Department re-
vealed that the German was
identified as Martin Unrein. A
possessor of Nazi military dec-
orations, he now holds the
position of supervisor of Ger-
man labor at the Dachau con-
centration camp site. In re-
sponse to JWV intercession,
Washington authorities have
ordered the U.S. Commander-
in-Chief in West Germany to
probe the full circumstances of
the case and Unrein's employ-
ment by the American military
establishment.

of Cochin
The Jews of Cochin in India are
the most remote Jewish tribe. The
whole of Cochin Jewry with the
exception of a few families, are to
be found today in Israel. This Jew-
ish tribe which for centuries was
far removed from a Jewish centre
preserved its tradition and yearn-
ings for Zion. It is, too, the only
tribe which itself defrayed the costs
of its emigration to Israel, sold all
its property and handed the money
to the Jewish Agency for the pur-
pose of transporting them to Israel.
Today there are Cochin Jews in set-
tlements in the Negev and Jerusa-
lem corridor, and some of them
have settled, too, in the cities.
The Jews of Cochin have no exact
history of their past. A fire which
broke out there destroyed all the
documents of the ancient 'Jewish
community. According to the tradi-
tion they possess, their origin is to
be traced to Jews who were exiled
from the homeland after the de-
struction of the First Temple. An-
other tradition has it that they are
descendants of Jews from Yemen
who reached India as merchants.
During the long period of exile iso-
lated Jews who were religious schol-
ars visited them occasionally and
taught them the Bible and Talmud.
They were for the most part schol-
ars from Yemen and one was even
a Polish Jew who landed there in
his searches for the Ten Tribes.
Cochin Jewry emigrated to Israel
not on account of persecutions.
Among the dozens of various sects
in India the tiny Jewish community
in Cochin attracted no attention.
Most of them were merchants and
artisans, some of them even mem-
bers of the free professions. Their
emigration to Israel was prompted
by an intense desire for Zion. Emis-
- saries from Israel reached them in
recent years and helped them to
make contacts with the Jewish
world. Today it is possible to see
in the settlements and villages of
Israel many immigrants from Cochin
who are recognizable by their dark
brown skin, going about as citi-
-zens with equal rights in the state
of Israel. Not one of them has gone
back and "gone down" to Cochin
and they have accepted the hard-
ships of settling down with love.
Translation of Hebrew Column
(Published by Brit Ivrit Olamit)
Few people think of their life insurance as
anything more than an obligation which must
be met in order to protect their loved ones
and for their own old age.
What they do not realize is that most policies
offer the holder more rights than obligations!

RIGHTS"

For example, did you know that under cer-
tain circumstances you have the right to in-
crease the death value of your insurance as
