No agreement could be reached today between the representatives of the 1,300 “old residents” in the Foehrenwald camp for displaced Jews and Moses Beckelman, European director of the Joint Distribution Committee, on certain measures in the sphere of social service which the JDC representative proposed to speed up the dissolution of the camp. The Foehrenwald camp is the last remaining Jewish DP camp in Germany.
At the same time, agreement was reached between the DP representatives and the JDC director on other major issues. Attempts to reconcile the views of the DP delegation with those of the JDC representative on the social service issue failed and the negotiations were adjourned.
