Briefs
In July 1939, 10 crates
containing 500 examples
of Judaica were deliv-
ered to The Jewish
Theological Seminary of
America, New York City.
The understanding was
that if, at the end of 15
years there remained a
Jewish community in
Danzig, these treasures
would be returned.
If not, the valuables
would stay in this country
"for the inspiration and
