VATICAN CONSIDERS APPEAL ABOUT POLISH JEWS
The Vatican will give "proper consideration" to a request by the American Federation for Polish Jews, caffing^ on Pope Plus XII to intervene with Cardinal Bond, tike Polish primate, for a the Pottah dst> m
The flrst group of 62 children from OSE hones in France to the U.S. arrive this month. The children will join relatives in the United States and Latin America which the OSE located for them since the end of the war. They were at first scheduled to arrive by plane, but the OSE decided to send them by boat sailing from Marseilles. The J.D.C. and the HIAS helped in financing their passage.
Although none of the children are over 18 years old, most of them have at one time or another escaped deportation and certain death at the hands of the Nazis. The life history of 14-year-old Gun-ther Kirschheimer is a typical example. Born in Berwengen, Germany, he was sent with his parents to the notorious concentration camp of Ours, France, in 1940, whence both his parents were subsequently deported to Poland. An operative of the OlSE managed to save the boy and hide him until the liberation of France. Since 1946 he had been in one of the OSE homes, and now he will join his uncle, Bob Sol, of Philadelphia, Pa.
Another one of the children, Renee Fischbach, a vivacious, black-haired girl, born on December 28, 1941, in Clermont-Ferrand, France, will join the Fischbach family in New York, together with her little brother and sister, Raoul and Irene. Their parents were deported in 1943.
The life history of 8-year-old Judith Koeppel also is a tragic one. Born in Berlin in February, 1938, at a time when Berlin was still a place where Jewish children were born, the child went through calamity after calamity. In 1938, when only a few months old, Judith left Germany with her parents on the ill-starred liner St. Louis, which was turned back at the gate of the New World by the Cuban government. The unfortunate refugees aboard were finally permitted to go ashore in France, Belgium and Holland, each of which took a proportionate share. Judith went with her parents to France, where her father worked as a forest guard until the beginning of the war, at which time he was arrested bythe French as a German dtisen. Then :fi>Howeil t�*

Research Fund To Help Conserve
Wild Life
The Royal Ontario Museum received a research fund from the Carling Conservation Society to permit the projects being undertaken for the promotion of moose and maskinonge, as well as the development of similar programs for other species. The importance of immediate conservation of these resources is highlighted by the example of the trumpeter swan, once found in abundance in North America but depleted until, in the early nineteen hundreds, only two of these birds were known to exist.
The Moose project will be carried out over a three to five year period, taking the form of an expedition, consisting of ranger guides and wild-life specialists, taking along cameras and making detailed notes. When this has been completed, it will form the basis for a moose conservation program. Project, director is R. L. Peterson, a specialist engaged by the Museum, who has been studying moose in Algonquin Park since May, of this year.
The maskinonge is one of Canada's most popular game fish, and the project will be directed by G. S. Cameron, in conjunction with Shelley Logier.
The fund, consisting of three annual cash grants, is administered by a Museum Committe of R. Fennel 1, K.C.; Prof. J. R. Dymond, E. C. Cross and J. Watt
The committee anticipates also studies along similar lines, dealing with the habitat, food, enemies, and habits of other forms of wildlife. The collection and interpretation of this information will be of material help in the preservation of one of Canada's greatest natural resources.

Appeals For Infants' Supplies
An urgent appeal for layettes, canned baby foods, and other infants' supplies for immediate shipment to destitute Jewish mothers in Europe was issued by Chaplain Judah Nadich, now on a survey of displaced persons camps in Germany, in a cable to the SOS (Supplies for Overseas Survivors) Collection of the Joint Distribution Committee.
fchaplain Nadich, former special adviser on Jewish affairs to General Dwight D. Eisenhower, asked that the Jews of America contribute substantial numbers of infants' layettes and other children's clothing, as well as canned foodstuffs of all types, particularly baby foods, to the SOS (Supplies for Overseas Survivors) Collection. In Europe on a mission for the J.D.C, the Chaplain reported that half of the Jewish wives arriving in the camps in flight from Eastern Europe are pregnant and that large numbers of others are bringing with them infants days or weeks old.
Organized by the Joint Distribution Committee in cooperation with 16 Jewish national women's organizations and other groups to supplement its regular relief and rehabilitation activities among the 1,400,000 surviving Jews of Europe, the SOS Collection has set out to raise 20,000,000 pounds of contributed foodstuffs, clothing, medicines, household and comfort items, layettes and toys.
"No infants' materials are available other than through contributed supplies," Chaplain Nadich reported. "There is a critical shortage of baby foods, as well as of all types of canned foodstuffs." He pointed out that clothing for adults also is needed badly, but that it must be wear old and worn-out clothing, clean and in good condition. "The Also try to send more items such psychology of the Jews in flight as toilet articles, which are import-irom terror is such that their mor- ant in restoring a sense of normal-ale suffers if they are forced to cy and human dignity."
