ment," says Larry Hirsch.
After 25 years, the Mon-
treal is still a family business,
with Larry Hirsch and his
brother Joe helping their
father, now a widower, who
lives on the premises. The two
brothers live close by. "It's a
heimish place because the
members of the family are
always here," says Larry.
Many Jewish guests stay at
the Montreal, including some
very observant families.
"When they come, they bring
their own pots and pans and
we'll take everything out of
the kitchen for them," he
says. "In whatever way we
can, we accommodate our
Jewish guests."
This summer, his brother
Joe hosted a Jewish singles
group at the hotel. It was the
ideal job for him: "Joe is 32,
single — and he's looking. Be
sure to write that down!" in-
structs his brother.
Larry Hirsch is active in
the area's Jewish life, serving
as president of Beth Judah
congregation based in Wild-
wood, the nearby beach town
four miles from Cape May. He
heads a congregation of 80
families from South Cape
May County.

It's an active congregation,"
says Mr. Hirsch, who was
educated at a yeshiira and
keeps a kosher home.
Five years ago, the Hirsch
family bought a menorah and
donated it to the town. At
first, Mr. Hirsch had to lobby
to get permission to have it
publicly displayed. But he got
permission. So now there's a
Chanukah menorah on the
Victorian Mall each
December.
Besides adding Jewish
flavor to the Victorian town,
Cape May's Jewish residents
— a tiny minority of about
150 in a population of 4,000
— are quite active in the
business life of the town. They
are innkeepers, shop owners,
restaurateurs, developers.
The Hirsch family, for exam-
ple, besides running the Mon-
treal Inn, are real estate
developers who built City
Centre, the largest indoor
mall in Cape May.
"It's a great melting pot
here," says Mr. Hirsch. "The
Jews are part of the whole
community. Even though the
environment is not strongly
Jewish, we feel a strong sense
of Yiddishkeit."

Scotland Yard Searches
For Trial Evidence

London (JTA) — In-
vestigators from Scotland
Yard and groups of pros-
ecuting attorneys from
England and Scotland are on
an international search for
evidence to helpJpring alleg-
ed Nazi war criminals living
in Britain to justice.
Chief Superintendent
Eddie Bathgate, head of
Scotland Yard's War Crimes
Unit, was in the Soviet
Union this week, on what a
spokeswoman for the Yard
described as a
"reconnaissance mission" to
"lay the groundwork for
possible future Prosecu-
tions."
Other members of the
seven-member War Crimes
Unit were reported to be in
Israel on a similar mission
with officers of Israel's war
crimes investigating unit,
based in Petach Tikvah.
Mr. Bathgate, meanwhile,
has been to Moscow, the
Ukraine, Lithuania and
Byelorussia, "making con-
tacts and liaising" with
Soviet war crimes in-
vestigators, including the
KGB, the spokeswoman
said.
The KGB has extensive
documents and access to

witnesses of atrocities com-
mitted by war criminals who
found haven in Britain after
the war, she said.
Scotland Yard, which has
already interviewed British
Holocaust survivors, is send-
ing investigators to visit
South Africa shortly to
interview survivors there
who witnessed mass killings
of Jews by Nazi collab-
orators, particularly in
Lithuania.
Three legal experts from
the special casework section
of the Crown Prosecution
Service were in Moscow this
week for meetings with offi-
cials of the Soviet Justice
Ministry.
One member of the group
visited Minsk, in
Byelorussia, and the
Ukraine.
A second team of lawyers
representing the Scottish
Crown Office in Edinburgh
joined him in Minsk, where
Lithuanian police battalions
helped the Nazis massacre
nearly 100,000 Jews bet-
ween 1941 and 1944.
Scottish Crown Office in-
vestigators have also been to
Australia and Canada in
search of evidence against
four suspected war criminals.
