Farewell To UNRRA
By LEO BERNSTEIN
Rome.
Despite the fact that critics in many lands have at
tacked the activities of UNRRA, the Jewish refugees and
DP’s in Italy found it to be a sympathetic and helpful
friend in their hour of greatest need. It is with much mis
giving that they watch it pass the horizon of the present
into history and turn to its successor, the International
Refugee Organization, with mingled feelings of hope and
fear.
The attitude of the Jews who have found a temporary
haven in this country is best illustrated by the recent re
quest of the Organization of Jewish Refugees in Italy,
which urged the Preparatory Commission for the I.R.O.
to take over not only the staff and assets of UNRRA, but also
the “human and democratic principles” under which it
operated.
There have been scattered instances of protests and
strikes against local UNRRA administrators in various
camps. But these have always been isolated cases involving
individuals who were out of line with the general policy,
rather than quarrels with the overall administration. In
almost all cases relief followed upon the heels of a specific-
demand for improved food rations, clothing allotments, bet
ter housing or medical attention.
Not only the Jews are aware of the excellent job accom
plished by the UNRRA staff. In the London headquarters
of the agency Qne British official is reported to have re
marked sourly: “The UNRRA mission in Italy will bo in
scribed in the Jewish National Fund’s (.olden Book for its
services to the Jews in Italy who subsequently run the
blockade to Palestine.”
One of the chief reasons for the success of UNRRA's
activities is its top administrative staff. Mission chief Sam
uel M. Keeqy and deputies Antonio Sorieri and I.ouis Var-
richine, all three Americans, do not hesitate to spend funds
wherever needed and have developed a fine technique for
negotiating and horse trading with the Italian Government
lor supplies and housing badly needed by the refugees.
Their concern for the DP’s was best illustrated by their
frantic activity to pile up surpluses of all sorts of supplies
to be available to the refugees following the death of
UNRRA. At the same time they cut down on funds nor
mally used for administration and purposes other than the
purchase of necessities. From April of this year all admin
istrative budgets were cut 30 per cent and the savings were
diverted to food purchases.
Somewhat later supplementary aid to DP’s living out
side the camps was cut off. DP’s engaged in work within
the camps suffered either a cut in wages or were not paid
at aH during the last two months of UNRRA's existence.
But again, the funds were used for necessities.
Recently UNRRA obtained at a low price a large quan
tity of woolen cloth from the Italian Government. Orig
inally it had been furnished by the agency as raw wool to
be used in rehabilitating the Italian spinning industry.
However, since the organization was pinching pennies it
decided to organize a miniature sewing industry among the
refugees. Although the DP tailors and seamstresses did not
receive wages for this work, all their products will be used
only for refugees.
Another project which the staff undertook before it
was too late was the repair and alteration of many of the
camp buildings. The roofs were repaired and large barracks
were cut up into small individual rooms to house family
units and small groups, many of whom had been living in
barraeks from long before the liberation.
Thanks to the efforts of UNRRA’s administrators there
probably will be very little lost motion during the transfer
of function to the I.R.O. Particularly so, since it is unoffi
cially known that Sorieri arid Varrichine are slated for high
posts with the new agency.
The major problem is expected to develop in the last
quarter of the year when the I.R.O. will have exhausted
the extra funds willed it by the Intergovernmental Refugee
Committee and UNRRA and will have to continue on its
own meager budget.

WHEREFORE. the petitioner* pray t*
the source of the four major fast
days of the year (besides Yom
Kip pur i on the prophetic state
ment of Zeehariah (VIII; 19)
consider the fast of the seven
teenth day of the month of Ta

month” (ibid). Counting the
Jewish months from Nisan, as is
the Biblical calendar arrange
ment. Tamuz is the fourth
month of the Jewish calendar.
QUESTION: Why was this
day proclaimed as a fast day?
ANSWER: The Talmudists
who were the original proclaim
ants of the fast generally claim
ed that five tragic events befell
the Jewish nation on this day
(during different years). Moses,
disturbed by the disrespectful
conduct of the Israelites during
his stay on Mt. Sinai, shattered
the two tablets bearing the Ten
Commandments.
