Historical Note

The Displaced Persons Camps and Centers in Germany came into existence in 1945 as a result of the liberation of masses of inmates from the Nazi concentration camps and forced labor units. The term “displaced person” (DP) was used by the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA) and by the Allied military commands to describe the persecuted persons driven by the Nazis from their native countries into Germany and Austria. Of the nearly 6,000,000 DPs, who at the end of the war were found in Central Europe, there were only about 50,000 Jewish survivors. But while most of the DPs were repatriated at a rapid pace, the Jewish survivors from Eastern Europe did not want to return to their country of origin and demanded that they be allowed to emigrate to Palestine. A report to President Truman by his special envoy Earl G. Harrison on August 1, 1945 supported the assertion that the Jewish DPs could not be repatriated and that they should be considered as Jews rather than nationals of their native countries, and that 100,000 immigration certificates to Palestine should be provided for them through the Jewish Agency. These recommendations were accepted by the military government in the U.S. zone where there was the highest concentration of Jewish DPs. As a result, separate camps and centers were set up by the UNRRA for the Jews, although the first Jewish DP camp in Feldafing was organized prior to the Harrison report. At the same time, the Jewish DP population began to grow quickly as a result of the flight of Jewish survivors from Poland, which continued through 1946 and became especially intensive after the pogrom in Kielce on July 4, 1946. Also, in the spring of 1947 about 20,000 Rumanian

Jews took refuge in Austria and Germany. This infiltration of refugees from Eastern Europe brought the total number of Jewish DP’s in February of 1947 to 184,000. The American authorities recognized the need to receive the refugees and establish for them a “temporary haven” in the U.S. Zone. This policy was in force until April 12, 1947, when any further infiltration by the refugees into the U.S. Zone was barred by the military. The British Zone was closed off to the refugees much earlier, on December 5, 1945. The establishment of the State of Israel in May, 1948, aided by the introduction in the U.S. of the Displaced Persons Act of 1948, brought about a solution to the DP problem. By 1951 a great majority had emigrated to Israel and to the U.S. The last of the DP camps was closed in 1953. Faced with postwar chaos and uncertain of their future, the Jewish DPs began organizing themselves after liberation. The very first meetings of the representatives of Jewish survivors in the American Zone were held as early as June 24, 1945 at the Flak-Kaserne in Munich and on June 1, 1945 in the Feldafing camp. Instrumental at organizing these meetings was Abraham Klausner, a chaplain of the U.S. Army, and the members of the Jewish Brigade who arrived from Italy for the express purpose of contacting the survivors. These initial contacts led to the conference in St. Ottilien which opened on July 25 with the participation of ninety-four delegates from all over Germany. The conference elected the Central Committee of the Liberated Jews in Bavaria, but it did not succeed in establishing one representation for all survivors in Germany. Separate committees of survivors were organized in the British and French zones. On January 27, 1946 the first Congress of Shearit-Ha-Pleita was opened in Munich. The Congress elected a new Central Committee of Liberated Jews in the American Zone of Germany. In the following years two more congresses of survivors were held. The second congress took place in Bad Reichenhall on February 25, 1947. The third congress, again in Bad Reichenhall, convened on March 30, 1948. Each congress elected a new Central Committee and a Council. The Central Committee assumed the tasks of the Council of determining policy directions. The Central Committee was headed by a chairman, a vice-chairman, and a general secretary. These functionaries, along with four other Central Committee members, comprised the Presidium. This group was in charge of all daily operations of the Central Committee. The first chairman of the Central Committee was Avi Grinberg. Upon his departure for Israel in 1946, David Treger took over the post and remained at it until 1949. Pesakh Piekatch was the last chairman, presiding over the period of dissolution of the DP camps and liquidation of the Central Committee. Among other members of the Central Committee were J. Olejski, A. Blumovitch, B. Pliskin, J. Ratner, H. Eife, A. Melamed, M. Chwoinik, C. Fefer, S. Schlamovitch, S. Snief, Sultanek. The first chairman of the Council was S. Gringauz but was replaced in 1947 by R. Rubenstein. The Central Committee was officially recognized by the U.S. military authorities in the summer of 1946. In the letter of recognition dated September 7, 1946 the U.S. Army Commanding General Joseph T. MacNarney specified the committee’s functions as:

“a. Operational: On a zone level, the Central Committee may function within its available resources, in those welfare activities which are supplementary to the operations of the army, UNRRA and its associated voluntary agencies, which are in

Page 4

accord with the general policy of the Military and UNRRA in regard to the care of displaced persons, and which are approved by the official Liaison Officer. b. Consultative: The Central Committee may furnish the army and establish welfare agencies, advise on the specific needs of the Jewish Displaced Persons, and shall in turn insure that the official interpretation of the policies of the military authorities are transmitted to the group it represents. c. Representative: The Central Committee may act on behalf of those Jewish Displaced Persons whom it represents as an advisory capacity to the military authorities in the U.S. Zone, as the ultimate solutions of their problems of rehabilitation and resettlement. This advice will normally be presented through the Liaison Officer.”

In addition, a multitude of political, cultural, educational, and professional organizations were active among the DPs, which contributed to a sense of an organized community, if only in transition. The Central Committee was dissolved in 1950, at the time when all of the camps and centers in the American Zone had been liquidated. The Jewish self-government in the British Zone was the first to be established by the Jewish DPs in Central Europe. The first Jewish DP committee was organized by the inmates of Bergen-Belsen on April 17, just two days after the liberation of the camp. Joseph Rosenzaft was named the chairman of this committee. Several weeks later an expanded Central Jewish Committee was established, which represented not just the Bergen-Belsen camp but also other Jewish DP centers in the British Zone. The survivors of this zone held their first Congress of Liberated Jews on September 25-27, 1945 in Bergen-Belsen. The second Congress of the Survivors was held on July 20-23, 1947 in Bad Harzburg. The Bergen-Belsen camp was closed in September 1950. The last DP’s to emigrate from the British Zone departed on August 15, 1951. The Jewish DPs in the French Zone were represented by the Comite Central des Juifs Liberes in Constance. Its secretary general was M. Gerstenfeld. The Jewish DP group in the French Zone was the smallest of all zones, comprising in 1947 some 1800 persons. Until 1947, UNRRA was the officially designated administrator of the DP program. In 1947 the International Refugee Organization (IRO, PCIRO) took over the task of caring for the DPs and seeing to the final resolution of the problem. On the Jewish side, the American Joint Distribution Committee, the Jewish Agency, the World Jewish Congress, and ORT contributed their shares to the maintenance of the camps and subsequent dispersion of the DP’s through emigration.

CONTAINER LIST

Collection description (provided by YIVO) The records of the DP centers in Germany were received in YIVO from various donors between the years 1946 – 1954. In 1963 a separate record group was formed of these materials and a preliminary inventory was compiled by Zosa Szajkowski. The arrangement of the records and preparation of the finding aid were completed by Marek Web in 1986. These records were gathered as a result of a wide collection project which was begun by YIVO in Europe in 1945. The aim of the project was to locate and collect archival materials on the Holocaust and postwar years of Jewish revival in war-ravaged Europe. The history of the Jewish displaced persons figured prominently in this project. In the beginning YIVO issued appeals to the DPs in the camps and centers and organized voluntary committees of YIVO friends to stimulate the gathering of relevant materials. In 1948 a special YIVO representative was appointed to direct the collection activities and secure for YIVO the records of the DP institutions. This post was occupied by Mordecai Bernstein, who, between the years of 1948 – 1952, arranged the transfer to YIVO of the bulk of DP records from Germany. A total of 603 parcels containing documents, microfilms, and books were received here as a result of his efforts. The record group is a conglomerate of files whose provenance is varied. The majority of the files originated in one or other DP institution which made it possible to group the tiles in series according to the provenance and to impose on the entire collection an overall order resembling the internal organization of the Shearit Ha’pleita in Germany. Establishing the origin of a file was often made difficult by lack of file titles or other identification. The DP bureaucracy had never really taken root and the organizational framework of the DP institutions was characterized by many changes, especially from 1948 onward. A number of folders within a series overlap in time as well as in subject but they were left intact in order to document the function these papers were supposed to serve. Equally, items which were received in small numbers from miscellaneous donors were not interfiled with files of same or similar subject but assembled in separate series to indicate their different origin. The records are organized in 19 series:

Page 6

Series 1 includes files of the Central Committee and of its various departments as well as of the Central Court of honor. The story of the founding of the Jewish DP administration and its rapid development is especially well documented in these files (Folders 1 to 299). Series 2 through 5 includes files of 43 local DP centers such as camps, open communities, and regional committees. The arrangement is alphabetical by the center’s name. The contents and quantity of each center’s files vary widely, from just a few items to an extensive archive. By far the largest in the latter category are the records of Camp Feldafing (series 3). Comprising almost 300 folders, these materials give a detailed picture of a Jewish DP camp, its administration, its economy, cultural life, and political activities. Another large camp archive is that of Camp Foehrenwald (series 4). It includes about 170 files of the camp’s court of honor, a most interesting resource for studying the self-imposed code of law and the perception of justice among the camp population. Substantial quantities of records exist also for camps Lampertheim, Landsberg, Rochelle, Schwabach, and in the British Zone, Bergen-Belsen. Series 6 through 12 includes files of professional, social, cultural, and political organizations that were established by the DP’s in the U.S. Zone. These are largely records of professional unions and associations whose main concerns were living conditions, health care matters, and personal welfare of their members. Political groups, mainly Zionist parties, are represented to a much lesser extent in these files. The records of the DP organizations accentuate the vigorous drive by the Jewish DPs to create a coherent network of institutions which were important parts in the fabric of this transitory community. Unsure of the future, the DPs resolved to organize as a political force in order to be able to press for their rights and goals (Folders 1047 – 1389). Series 13-14 include records of ORT and AJDC offices in the American Zone. (Folders 1370 – 1534). Series 15-19 include, among others, materials of the Central Jewish Committee for the British Zone in Bergen-Belsen and the files on Jewish DP’s in the French Zone and in Berlin.

In addition to the records of the DP centers in Germany, there is a collection of photographs which depict daily life and major events in the DP centers. 76 localities are represented in this collection. There are extensive files of photographs on Bergen-Belsen, Berlin, Feldafing, Landsberg, Munich, Stuttgart. This record group is a major resource on the history of the Jewish displaced persons in the post World War Two period. While it covers a wide range of aspects of the DP situation in Germany, it is most distinctly related to the reconstruction of Jewish live after the Holocaust and the preparation of the survivors for their new destination.
