NEW YORK — Gerhard

Nazism, died May 25 at , age 58.

York Business and Industry
Division of the National Com-
mittee for Labor Israel since

group in Austria called the World
Organization Against Race Hatred
and Human Misery. •
In 1937, realizing the occupa-

surname of Schnap and taking
that of Schroeder in order to
protect members of his family
still in Europe. He never re-
sumed the former name.
In New York, he became an
active speaker against Nazism,
cautioning audiences against
"shrugging off and laughing at"
the threat of Nazism.
Schroeder, who later became an

private in the United States Army
in World War II, had visited Is-
rael many times and was a mem-
ber of the Farband Labor Zionist
Order.
