Taught At
1943, her class consisted of 27 boys and girls from three to fifteen years of age. By 1946, nineteen had been killed in the gas chambers. Among the eight survivors was Mrs. Barska's daughter, now fifteen years old.
Mrs. Barska, who had been a high school teacher and child care supervisor before the war, conducted her class in Bergen-Belsen in almost total darkness. Her pupils had one book of poems snd one pencil among them. While one of the students stood wstch, the others would remove the slats in their beds snd use them as writing boards. When . a Nasi guard appeared, the lookout would whistle s warning snd the pupils would return their writing boards to their beds.
"If those children � starving, terrified and in darkness�could learn their lessons," said Mrs. Bar-ska, "it proved to me that children can learn anything anywhere," She said that her surviving pupils �three of whom are in Palestine, two in Belgium, and two in Booth America�still write tod tell her that their class in Bergen-Belsen was the bast one they ever at~ tended. They say tkas they hare
forgotten the horrors of the camp -and remember only the pleasures' of their school.
Mrs. Barska said that when she left Warsaw to start on her National Council of Jewish Women welfare work scholarship, "Polish children were becoming children once more. When the war ended,) they had forgotten how to laugh and play."
In addition to specialising in child care at Western Reserve University, Mrs. Barska will observe techniques snd institutions in the United States. On her return to Europe she will resume her duties with the Central Committee of Polish Jews.

"The Jewish Agency, as well as counterparts of an Arab nationalism, must be liquidated."
While the Council called for immediate admission to Palestine of 150,000 displaced persons of Jewish faith, it emphasised that the humanitarian question involved was being considered apart from political implications.
worker fas Poland, Mrs. skAjbegan the study of social work at Western Reserve University, in Cleveland, Ohio, on the Adels Rosenwald Levy Scholarship granted by the National Council of Jewish Women.
The scholarship, one of thirteen granted to date by the Council, was named in honor of Mrs, Levy, daughter of Julius Rosenwald, and Chairman of the National Women's Division of the United Jewish Appeal, when the National Council of Jewish Women designated her "Jewish Woman of the Year."
Mrs. Levy personally selected Mrs. Barska for the scholarship while on a survey trip in Europe last year. She stated that she was "deeply impressed with Mrs. Barska, her background and her desire to better conditions in her own country with the help of up-to-date American methods."
As head of the Child Welfare Department of the Central Committee of Polish Jews since 1945, Mrs. Barska has been responsible for 18,000 of the 20,000 Jewish' children in Poland. She has been in charge of 52 schools, 37 children's homes and 14 summer camps for boys and girls who survived the recent war or who have been born since its end.
During the war, Mrs. Barska was imprisoned for two years in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Unknown to her Nazi guards, she conducted a school for the children in her barracks. In
