Lieut. Gen. Sir Frederick E. Morgan, UNRRA chief in Germany, today promised to intervene with top American Military Government officials to halt the transfer of Jews from the camps in which they are now residing to less desirable quarters.

This action followed a conference at UNRRA headquarters between Gen. Morgan and a delegation of the Central Jewish Committee, representing Jewish DP’s in the American zone. The head of the committee, Dr. Zalman Grinberg, brought to the UNRRA official’s attention the recent removal to dilapidated German army stables at Bamberg of over 300 Jews from a camp at Fuerth.
