One morning about two years ago a group of thirty children, pallid and emaciated, clad in tattered apologies' for garments, arrived at Haifa in Palestine after a six weeks journey by boat and rail. Their faces were expressionless. They had remained silent for the most part of the journey down the Black Sea from the port of Sulina, on the northern coast of Rumania, through the Bosporus to Turkey and then after an interval, by rail across Asia Minor and through Syria and Lebanon to Palestine.
They were dressed exactly the same as on the day they were brought back across the Dniester to Rumania from the deportation areas. For the most part orphans, whose parents were killed or died in the wastes of Transdnistria since their expulsion from Buko-vina in 1941, some had seen their fathers and mothers and other close kin shot down or left to die by the wayside when they could not keep up with the marching column of miserable deportees.
Their rescue was engineered by a number of young Palestinian Jewish volunteers, men and women who had wormed their way into Rumania from Turkey, and gone about quietly collecting a boy here, a girl there, until they had assembled many small parties. Since that time many hundreds more have arrived in Palestine from eastern and southeastern Europe. They have come on legal immigrant ships or cramped in leaky converted tankers and cattle-boats. They have also come on the French luxury liner Champollion from Marseilles, or on the 200-ton motor schooner Kismet Adalia, renamed the Brigadier Orde Charles Win-gate, on which twenty passengers would ordinarily have been a crowd but which carried, twenty times that many.

Youth immigration, or "Aliyah," is' the organization which cheated Hitler out of eighteen thousand Jewish children from February, 1934, to date. The idea of "Aliyah", was conceived in Germany in 1933 for rescuing young victims of anti-Semitic measures. An organization was established to facilitate the transfer to Palestine of young people aged 15 to 17 years and to equip them for a productive life.
In Palestine itself a frail old lady from Baltimore, Henrietta Szold, then in her early seventies, agreed to take charge of the arrangements to tend, educate and rebuild the lives of the youngsters after their arrival. The scope of the scheme gradually extended until, in the war years, it became an imperative duty to save all the Jewish children. Miss Szold went on working indomitably at the great task of salvation until her death in Jerusalem in February last year.
Under Miss Szold's direction the organization was bnilt up to take charge of every boy and girl. The age limit of 15 to 17 years was soon dropped as the Nazis began to cover Europe. Some children were as young as 2 years. They were placed in Palestine Foundation Fund villages, in schools, in homes.
The organization grew. It became responsible for the maintenance and education of all young new arrivals up to 18 who were without parents, and for children whose immigrant parents were unable to support them. The number of coon-
LO
tries from which the children originated extended beyond Germany and Austria, the principal lands of child emigration before the war, and totaled thirty-eight. Palestinian-born youngsters aged 14 to 16 also clamored to be placed on the land; they came from the underprivileged class in the towns, and they wanted to leave the slum quarters. In most of these Palestinian social cases, the children themselves turned up at the offices and insisted on being taken.
Miss Szold insisted that the children themselves choose the type of institution in which they wished to live. They could go into Orthodox Jewish villages, such as Kfar Ha'noar Ha'dati (Religious Youth Village), or the Labor and secular ones. Where a child or infant was tco young to express a preference, its family background was investigated and the suitable type of place was chosen as carefully as if its parents were present to do th.> choosing.
Training centres were set up in the countryside, so that today there are immigrant children in training in a hundred and nine collective, communal and cooperative villages established by the Palestine Foundation Fund, and others in forty-eight separate educational institutions.
To provide for younger children, smaller homes were set up in different parts of the country. Most children to arrive in the war years had little or no schooling; a special syllabus was devised to meet their particular requirements. Children under 14 were given an ordinary elementary-school education, with emphasis on the agricultural side in preparation for the final two-year farming course. Those above 14 had their learning divided between general high school subjects and practical vocational work, either in the fields or in workshops as fitted them. Aa .group* �piaf|ififl their train-
new arrivals. Of the sand boys and girls who through Yonth Immigration schooling and care, three-quarters selected farming as their future careers. Others chose to go into the towns as artisans, factory hands and nurses, some preferred the sea as fishermen and sailors.
Those who took up farming after graduation�about eight thousand �were given a third year's training on the land. Upon completing the course, they formed themselves into "gar'inim" (labor nuclei groups) and began preparing for permanent settlement on the land. Almost a dozen communal workers' villages were founded by the Youth Aliyah graduates since the outbreak of war with Palestine Foundation-Fund assistance.
The cost of the scheme since 1934 has been $12,000,000 of which 18,000,000 has come from the United States (in the main from Hadasaah Zionist women) and the remainder from Britain, South Africa and other countries. It costs |36 a month (at current sterling exchange) to maintain a child under 15 in an agricultural settlement $16 per month in the first year and $12 monthly in the second year for those of 15 and over.
The Youth Immigration movement, directed by a group of ardent people in Palestine and America, now has the fervent ambition of bringing twenty thousand children from Europe within a short time. A plan has been worked out for capital investment in buildings in villages and new institutions, and for other preliminary expenditure, for an aggregate $10,000,000 which would take care of the accommodation of the twenty thousand new charges. The annual upkeep would be $11,000,000.

25 JEWS GRADUATE FROM WEST POINT
Twenty-five Jewish cadets, the largest number to be commissioned at one time in the history of the United States Military Academy, each received Jewish Publication Society Bibles from the National Jewish Welfare Board (JWB) at the graduation services of the Jewish Chapel Squad which preceded the annual commencement exercises. Each Bible had the name of the recipient inscribed on the cover in gold.
The services were conducted by Rabbi Marcus Kramer, of Poughkeepsie, N.Y., former Army chaplain, who, through the National Jewish Welfare Board regularly conducts services for the Jewish cadets at West Point Rabbi William F. Rosen-blum, of. New York, a member of the Committee on Army and Navy Religious Activities of the National Jewish Welfare Board, preached the baccalaureate sermon. West Point now has the largest enrollment of Jewish cadets in its history.
Urges Plan Against Bigotry
Describing the Ku Klux Klan as an organization that feeds on quackery, hatred, intolerance and bigotry, Gov. Ellis Arnall, of Georgia, warned the Chicago campaign of the Joint Defense Appeal that there are still too many Americans who continue to give an ear to the KKK and other organizations peddling race hatred. More than 600 Chicago communal leaders pledged their support on behalf of the drive that maintains the work of the American Jewish Committee and the Anti-Defamation League of Bnai Brith in fighting anti-Semitism and safeguarding democratic liberties.
To combat religious bigotry, Gov. Arnall cautioned against a complacent attitude. "It isn't wise," he said, "to sit back and do nothing under the impression that the ultimate good sense of the American people will be effectively brought into play."
The Southern liberal leader praised the work of agencies, like the American Jewish Committee and the Anti-Defamation League, which conduct a program designed to interpret the ideals of democto imtmrniae the people hatred. He called the
ance organisation at prteenV bat strewed that if its activities were allowed to proceed unhindered, it might become a thriving organization.
Arnall said that he is leading an attack on the Klan through the findings of secret agents of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation who have been placed in the, Klan's membership, and by revoking, through legal means, the Klan's Georgia charter on the grounds that it is not a non-profit, non-partisan, fraternal and benevolent group, as claimed.
Receives N.Y. Law Post At 25
David Marcus, who is just twenty-five, has. been appointed an assistant attorney general of New York State. Attorney General Nathaniel L. Goldstein, in making the announcement in Albany, noted that Mr. Marcus is the youngest appointee to the post since he took office in January, 1943. He added that it was in line with his policy to select top-notch law school graduates.
Mr. Marcus, who is unmarried and lives with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morris Marcus, at 20 Chestnut Hill Avenue, White Plains, N.T., has been assigned to the litigations and claims bureau, in Albany.
He was bom in Mount Kisco, where he attended the elementary and secondary schools. He studied for one year at Marietta (Ohio) College and then transferred to
Henrietta Saold from the very early days of the scheme. Talking of the plan to bring another large yovth group to the country, Mr. Berth said:
"We have given nearly twenty thousand young people a home, security and education, and have prepared them for useful citizenship in communities of their own or as individual*. There is no reason why
