Are Honored
Buenos Aires (JTA) — An
85-year-old woman who
helped save 1,200 Jews from
their deaths in Poland dur-
ing World War II has been
honored here by Israel's am-
bassador to Argentina.
At a recognition ceremony
last week attended by hun-
dreds of people at the Marc
Chagall Cultural Center, It-
zhak Aviron, the recently
appointed Israeli ambas-
sador, presented a medal in
the name of Israel's Yad
Vashem Institute to Emilie
Schindler for her courageous
actions during the war.
"Thank you for remember-
ing me. I did what I could,"
said the fragile Ms.
Schindler, tears welling in
her eyes when she received
the medal.
Ms. Schindler, a German
Catholic who has been living
in Argentina since 1949, was
honored here for her courage
during World War II when,
together with her late hus-
band, Oskar, she managed to
save 1,200 Jews from almost
certain death in Nazi- oc-
cupied Poland.
The Schindlers' heroism is
the subject of a soon-to-be-
c released movie, Schindler's
List, directed by Steven
Spielberg.
During the war, the couple
had operated a metal factory
in Krakow, Poland, at which
Jews recruited from concen-
tration camps served as a
cheap source of labor.
After witnessing Nazi ex-
ecutions of Jewish children,
the Schindlers devoted
themselves to rescuing Jews
from deportation and death
in Auschwitz.
Toward the end of the war,
when the German au-
thorities ordered the
Schindlers out of Krakow
because it was about to fall
to the Russians, the couple
made a list of 1,200 Jews
whom they described as in-
dispensable workers and
took them along when the
plant was relocated out of
harm's way.
Following the war, the
couple settled in Argentina
in 1949, with the help of the
American Jewish Joint
Distribution Committee.
Emilie Schindler still lives
40 miles from Buenos Aires
in the house purchased for
her by the B'nai B'rith in
1965, eight years after her
husband's death.
Moshe Beisky, a former
Israeli Supreme Court judge,
sent a moving statement
that was read during the
recognition ceremony. El
