faith in American govern-
ment and institutions that
their fellow citizens, accord-
ing to polls since Watergate,
have suffered.
In more than 1,000 hours
of in-depth interviews on
tape, almost all the survi-
vors viewed America as "a
land of endless opportunity,
a vigorous country with
wonderful people."
Sentiments like these
were expressed often and
fervently by those inter-
viewed, although most have
lived here for at least 25
years. They shed a special
light on the meaning of the
survivors' immigration to
the U.S. and their assimila-

It is expected that the ma-
terial contained in the full
transcripts available at the
William E. Wiener Oral
History Library will provide
documentation for scholars,
writers and laymen inter-
ested in probing a wide vari-
ety of problems and issues
which cut across the disci-
plines of history, sociology,
psychology and literature.
There are discussions of
pre-immigration impres-
sions of the U.S., as well as
comparisons between the
politics, life style, traditions
and social institutions of
America and the "old coun-
try."

Typical of the reactions of
those interviewed was that
of a woman who said:
"Exactly five years after our
arrival in the U.S., we were
naturalized. This was the
closest thing to democracy
we had experienced since
Czechoslovakia."

The study was directed by
Louis G. Cowan, director of
special programs at the
Graduate School of Journal-
ism of Columbia University
and national , chairman -of
the Wiener Oral History
Library.

FASHIONS BY

ON ENTIRE S TOCK

The two-year study,
comprised of interviews
with 250 European Jews
who survived the Holo-
caust, and their families,
was conducted by the
American Jewish Commit-
tee's William E. Wiener
Oral History Library, un-
der a grant by the Na-
tional Endowment for the
Humanities.

Among those interviewed
were former ghetto dwellers
from Eastern Europe; peo-
ple who lived for years in
the forests; people sheltered
by non-Jewish families and
partisans in rural villages
from France to Russia; Jews
who lived out the war pass-
ing as non-Jews in their na-
tive countries; people who
travelled the continent look-
ing for safety; and finally,
Jews who survived the Nazi
concentration camps.

The idea was initiated by
Martin Libowsky of Bir-
mingham, Ala. After visit-
ing more than 30 factories
in Israel, Libowsky feels
that the workmanship and
quality of the Israeli prod-
uct is comparable to furni-
ture imported to the U.S.
from Scandanavia or Brazil
and that Israel can compete
in both price and style in the
American market.
