Harkavi, Israel's former Ambas-
sador to Uruguay, and Dr. Ra-
naan Weitz. director general of
the agriculture department of
the Jewish Agency, were elect-

Camp at Maidanek

Jewish medical personnel who
survived Maidanek concentration
camp are being sought by the
World Jewish Congress in New
York in connection with an in-
vestigation of Nazi crimes now
being carried out by the West
German authorities.
During the massacre of 42,000
Jews in the city and district of
Lublin in November, 1943, known
as Aktion Erntefest, the inmates
of two Jewish labor camps were
taken out and shot to death near
Maidanek. The camps were the
Deutsche Ausruestungswerke
(munition plant) on Lipowa
Street, and the barracks at the
airport. Simultaneously, smaller
Jewish labor groups were also
wiped out in the same way. They
had been employed by a number
of Nazi units at Lublin—by the
local S.S. Administration (Stan-
dort Administration) and by the
S.S. Hospital, etc.
According to available evi-
dence, four Jews among those
taken to Maidanek were re-
turned to the S.S. Hospital from
which they managed to escape.
One of them was a male nurse
called Vogelgarn. There is also
evidence to the fact that several
Jewish medical specialists were
spared at the same time in order
to perform an operation. They
too may have been able to flee
Maidanek.
Anyone who has any informa-
tion concerning the fate or
whereabouts of Vogelgarn, or of
any of the Jewish doctors at
Maidanek, or has any other per-
tinent information is requested
to contact Dr. Nehemiah Robin-
son, Director of the Institute of
Jewish Affairs, World Jewish
Congress, 15 E. 84th St., New
York 28.
