Appeal for Items Depicting
Greek Jewish History Issued
By HEIDI PRESS
An urgent appeal on be-
half of the Jewish Museum
of Athens Greece was made
this week by Daniel
Hannan-Stavroulakis, di-
rector of the museum.
Hannan-Stavroulakis is
in the U.S. and Canada
seeking artifacts from the
Greek Jewish community
prior to its decimation by
the Holocaust.
Besides funds needed to
purchase the building in
which the museum is
housed, items such as Seder
plates, letters, photographs,
Torah crowns, newspapers
and costumes, all from
Jewish communities in
Greece, are being sought.
Hannan-Stavroulakii
said that the museum,
which was founded in
1977, exists to "bring a
complete picture of
Greek Jewish life" to not
only Greek Jews, but to
world Jewry and Chris-
tians as well.
"We are committed to
making an archive repre-
sentative of every aspect of
Greek Jewish life," he said.

the Holocaust.
Different Kind of Holocaust
Museum in Jerusalem Office
By WAYNE FRIEDMAN
The words leap at you
with shocking force. "Jews,
there is an oven in your fu-
ture!" "There is no room for
Jewish parasites in our
country." "Jews, out!" They
are posters, pamphlets,
flyers, newspapers, maga-
zines. One looks about the
room, filled with exhibit
after exhibit of anti-Jewish
hate and the first thought is
that here is an exhibition --
again — of Nazi literature
from the Hitler era.
But, a closer look reveals
that this exhibition is
different. In this museum,
every exhibit is a sample of
Nazi hate, not from yester-
day, but from American
Nazi and other United
States hate group litera-
ture.
This propaganda is cur-
rently on exhibit at the
Museum of the Potential
Holocaust. The museum is
located in a modest office at
31 Usishkin St., in
Jerusalem's picturesque
ShaareiChesed section, and
is a careful selection of hate
literature from many Nazi-
like groups.
As one walks in, he is
met with a bold headline:
"Hitler Lives!" It is on the
front page of a news-
paper called "White
Power." "The Nazi
Socialist White People's
Party of NSWPP," ex-
plains Chaim Ginsberg,
who founded the
museum with his wife
Barbara.
"It is the largest and best
organized of the Nazi
groups and works out of a
suburb of Washington, D.C.
They often march and
demonstrate in uniform and
swastika in front of the
White House and the
Capitol. Of course, they are
defended in this by the
ACLU."
An exhibit shows the
eighth congress held by the
Nazis in Washington with a
large contingent marching
in disciplined form on the
Washington Mall. Next to
the picture is an editorial
written by Nazi leader Matt
Koehl. The caption reads:
"The Honeymoon Is Over,"
and the theme is that the
life of peace and security
that Jews have had in the
United States is now 'end-
ing, thanks to the oil crisis.
Mrs. Ginsberg picks up an
exhibit, a small leaflet
handed out by the American
Christian Party. It is a
grizzly "humor," that gives
a vivid insight into the men-
tality of the Nazi. The cap-
tion reads: "Camp Buchen-
wald For Chubby Chil-
dren."
Mrs. Ginsberg thinks
that it is important for
people to understand
that "These people may
be sick but their leaders
are not stupid. Quite the
contrary, they know
exactly what troubles the
average lower and lower
middle class American
and they seize on the
theme, harping on it, em-
bittering the American
and, most important,
blaming everything on
the obsessive scapegoat
— the Jew?'
The museum gets no fi-
nancial aid from any Jewish
organization or the Israeli
government.
From conversation with
both Ginsbergs it is evident
that they believe that the
Israeli government will
never in any way back a
museum that was set up for
the purpose of warning
Jews about anti-Semitism
in America. "They are af-
raid to antagonize Jed
leaders," said IV
Ginsberg. "They remember
the angry reaction of
American Jewish leaders to
Prime Minister Ben-
Gurion's statement calling
upon Jews to come on aliya
because they have no place
in the exile."
Czech Exhibition
LONDON — Some 3,000
persons, mostly tourists
from abroad, visited a
three-week exhibition of
children's paintings from
Terezin concentration camp
this summer in Prague,
Czechoslovakia.
The exhibition was re-
ported in Vestnik, the
Prague Jewish monthly ac-
cording to the International
Council of Jews from
Czechoslovakia..
