The Hitachduth Olei Germania (Association of German Jews in Palestine) has made extensive preparations to meet the refugees from Germany. At Haifa and Jaffa harbors the immigrants are met by members of the Hitachduth. The question of providing cheap dwellings for the arrivals has been taken up. At the Workers Residential Quarter in Haifa several houses (forty rooms) were hired by the Hitachduth for this purpose. Besides, huts and barracks will be established in order to make accommodation for 500 persons.
