Polish-Jewish Children Wander For Three Years. Go To Palestine
Somewhere on the Red Sea a ship that carxie* neither armed �ea nor weapons nor supplies of war, but 600 Polish-Jewish children, is making its way to Suez. A happier fate awaits these children than awaited the small refugees who were packed on board the S.S. Salvator, the unseaworthy ship that foundered two years ago and sank In the Black Sea after it had failed to fin-1 a country of refuge for its luckless passengers, says Dorothy Dunbar Bromley, In the New York Herakl Tribune.
Today the Youth AUyah (Immigration) Bureau in Palestine Is making plans to place the 600 Pollah children � a* well as a second contingent of 400 about to leave Persia, and thousands who are expected to follow them� in homes, farm settlements and achpols. N�ws of the children's Impending rescue recently reached Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Organization of America, in a letter from Its founder, Miss Henrietta SzoJd.
The elghty-two-year-old leader, a woman of Jane Addams' ftature, wrote from Jerusalem late in December: "About three months ago we of the Youth Aliy&h Bureau were thrown into a state of excitement by the report that at least 1,000 children of Jewish parents of Polish citizenship had landed at Pahlevl, the Persian port on the Caspian Sea> They constitute! a section of a large group, numbering upward of 14,000 adults and children, Christian *"d Jewish Poles . . .80 per cent of the children, ranging from one-and-a-half to eighteen years, are parentless. . . . The overwhelming majority, perhaps all but the forty babies under klndergarteji age, have been wandering from place to place for three years. . . . They have been sleeping in the woods, half-naked, exposed to disease, eaten up by vermin, starved, guiltless, .badly used, victims of war."
Since last September these children have been stranded In a camp at Teheran in Iran (Persia). The lent of Irak (which only
and four to study. Today 5,500 have completed the two-year course. Of these, 85 per cent have elected to stay on the lani, while as many as 650 are now serving with the United Nation* forces. Others are employed as mines, technicians and industrial workers In this land which 1* a bastion of etrength to the United Nations.
Following graduation* many of the young people nsve organized their own labor colonies and a group of 120 young people�forty-seven of them Youth Allyah trained � are wresting a living from the barren shore of the Dead See, By employing a scientific methol devised by a Palestinian agriculturist they found they could turn the salt-laden area Into sweet earth. The process meant. washing the soil carefully for four months with waters diverted from the River Jordan. Today this shore of the Dead Sea is an oasis of green vegetable*, newly planted date palms an*, banana groves.
.The new Jewish settlements have not taken food out of the mouths of the Arabs. They have made Palestine more habitable, *o that today it soports a popu!a-Upn of 414,000 more Moslem*, 416,000 more Jew* and 61,000 more Christian* than in 1919. The policy of Youth Allyah, as exemplified by Miss Szold, is one of nelghborlineas and friendliness with the Arabs. It was no accident that her Arab neighbors In Jerusalem brought her flower*
during the riots In 1921.
"It would take a very gifted writer," one of the young pioneers said In a letter, "to convey a notion of the happiness of our life, of our momenta of exaltation, of our hard atrugglea. ... In spite of all our obstacles, we have walked with heads held high, and though we have stumbled sometimes, we have not known defeat."
