executive committee, announced.
The Joint Defense Arpeal, cur
rently seeking a national goal of
$6,104,540, is the fund-raising
arm of the American Jewish Com
mittee and the Anti-Defamation
League of B’nai B’rith. The na
tional meeting will seek to ham
mer out the 1949 national goal for
combatting intolerance through
the agencies of the JDA, Mr.
Oberdorfer said.
Noting the current decline in
I organized anti-Semitism in the U.
| S., Mr. Oberdorfer credited the
j Joint Defense Appeal agencies
j with contributing "in large meas-
| ure to the retreat of the hate
j mongers.’’
"Using funds provided exclu-
| sively by the JDA, our two great
defense agencies have helped re
duce the anti-Semitic under
ground to a gratifyingly weaken
ed state,” he declared. "The Third
Annual Meeting thus takes place
at a time when the opportunities
for Jewish defense work are ex
ceptionally bright. But by the
same token our responsibility are
correspondingly greater, for com
placency now may mean disaster
later on.”
Declaring the parley would seek
to blueprint the 1949 drive for
meeting the financial require-
Given Sentence
MUNICH, (JTA)—Erich Hohn,
who served as a Gestapo official
during the war, was sentenced
to three years imprisonment by
the Bamberg court after he was
exposed by members of a refugee
group of which he had succeeded
in becoming a vice-chairman.
One of the founders of the Ges
tapo organization in Reichenberg,
Hohn changed his name after the
war to "Julius Israel Holm” and
posed as a Jew and a former con
centration camp victim. Recently,
just prior to discovery of his
identity, he was elected vice-
chairman of Bamberg branch of
the Association of Former Perse-
cutees of the Nazi Regime.
merits of the Joint Defense Appeal
agencies, the JDA leader said:
"This is going to be an action
conference. From the moment the
conference chairman’s gravel
opens the meeting, the National
Council members will begin to
function as a collective group in
examining the budgets for pro
moting working democracy. The
JDA leaders will act as a Com
mittee of Auditors to chart the
cost of fighting bigotry in the U.
S.
"We know that when we help
to strengthen American democra
cy, we ure also strengthening
American Jewry. It is to this
basic end that the JDA Annual
Meeting is dedicated.”
The JDA National Council, or
ganized two years ago, has grown
to 673 representatives from Jew
ish communities located in every
state of the union.
