Dr. Goldmann said that the ac-
tivity of the present generation dur-
ing the European holocaust did not
add any heroic chapters to Jewish
history. 'We did not foresee the
danger and we did not react ac-
cording to the danger," he said,
adding that he was "ashamed" of
the reaction of the Jewish people
now "in tending to forget the Jew-
ish centers that perished."
He said Beth Hatwutzot would
perpetuate the memories of the
Jewish communities crushed and
annihilated by the Nazis. The com-
munities will be commemorated in
a 25 hall museum. Another goal of
the center will be to link the new
generation of Israeli Jews with
Jewish communities outside of
Israel and to handle research about
those communities.
0. Valinsky, chairman of the
American Committee of Friends of
the House, said Jews outside of
Israel would raise $3.000,000 to
build the structure.
