ORCHARD LK. RD., S. OF MAPLE

ically, the stages in the vain Jew-
ish dream of assimilation into
German society.
Early stones were inscribed in
Hebrew and dated according to
the Hebrew calendar; later
names and calendar dates were
i nscribed
nscr i bed both in Hebrew and
German; in the final years before
World War II, names were in
scribed only in German, and the
dates of the Hebrew calendar
were eliminated.
The ancient cemetery is still in
use. Kogan added that new in-
scriptions will be in Russian, or
Ukrainian; in German, which the
new Potsdam settlers are "furi-
ously" studying; and, "we hope,"
in Hebrew as well.
Russian/Ukrainian and Ger-
man are the languages of dis-
course and worship, plus the
prayerbook Hebrew which few
congregants actually understand,
They hold services in an impro-
vised sanctuary at the housing
complex in which most of the
Jewish families live.
The pre-war synagogue was
destroyed by Allied bombing, A
new one is in the planning stage.
According to the burgomeister, it
will be built on land donated by
the city.
Dessau, an hour southwest of
Potsdam, is yet another East
German city only now recovering
from the "uglification" imposed
on it by the strictures of Stalin-
ist architecture. Here, as in Pots-
dam, the East German regime
demolished the ruins of many of
the neo-classical and Baroque
buildings damaged by Allied
bombers. Instead of restoring
them, officials replaced them with
modern concrete buildings which
were to reflect "the ideals of So-
cialism."
Much of Dessau, similarly, is
what might be described as a con-
crete wasteland; and visitors are
hard put to find the historic struc-
tures of the Old City amidst the
concrete blocks which have re-
placebd mdainng
ysof the elegant pre-
war uil
Yet, during the years of the
Weimar Republic, until the ad-
vent of Hitlerism, Dessau was
the center of Bauhaus, probably
the most significant movement
in architecture and design of the
20th century. Founded in the

early 1920s by Walter Gropius,
Bauhaus was a concept of design
in which form followed function
in houses, factories, furniture,
household objects and virtually
every other aspect of modern life.
Taking power in 1933, the
Nazis closed down the Bauhaus
School of Design as a breeding-
ground of "Jewish Bolshevism, "
although Gropius himself was
not Jewish and had been, ear-
lier in his career, an anti-Semi-
te.
Many _of his followers were
Jewish, however, and many, like
Erich Mendelsohn, fled to Pales-
tin
