She comes from
Przemysl, Poland. She
is among the 10% of
Polish Jews who
survived Nazi
Occupation. Now she
is in her 80's. Her
family's graves are
overgrown and
crumbling. Her
experiences have gone
untold. Remembrance
and Reconciliation,
Inc., an Ann Arbor
non-profit, is working
to restore Przemysl's
Jewish cemetery and
to publish the stories
of survivors like her—
in Poland, where they
most need to be heard.

Unfortunately, you included as part o
your editorial a misquoted, our-of-
context statement attributed to me.
If you will look at page 34 of this
edition of the Jewish News, you will
see the text of what I actually stated
in regard to Kosovo, "... we must
remember and speak out to ensure
that no further genocide will occur
against our people or any other peo-
ples. Today we see that horror is
occurring in Kosovo. What is hap-
pening there is not the same as the
Holocaust; however, it is a terrible
human tragedy. As children of sur-
vivors, we must speak out against
the torture and murdering of inno-
cent victims. We know what tragedy
and human suffering are. If only the,
world would have cared about the
Jewish people 55 years ago [as it
cares about those in Kosovo]."
You quote me as stating, "What
is occurring in Kosovo is not at all
like the Holocaust, but there is
human tragedy ... If only the world
cared about Jews 55 years ago as it
cares about those in Kosovo." I rec-
ognize this very different later quote (--\
as being taken from the Detroit Free
Press.
I think you will recognize the
world of difference between the actual
and mistaken quotations.

I read the most meaningful article ("A
Gift Of Learning," April 9) that high-
lighted the magnanimous gift of Dr.
Milton and Lois Shiffman for Jewish
education in Detroit.
Anyone who has been privileged to
work with the Shiffmans realizes their
total commitment to the Jewish peo-
ple, particularly through charitable
acts that impact on Jewish education
and on Israel.
Though the article didn't men-
tion it, the couple created the Mil-
ton and Lois Shiffman Global Col-
laboration Project at Bar-Ilan Uni-
versity, an extensive enterprise that
funds cooperative immunology-
based scientific projects between
Bar-Ilan and some. of the world's
most important research institutes,
most particularly with the National
Institutes of Health. This vital fund
is in addition to a number of other
science-based efforts that they have
made on the university's behalf.
