More than half of the Jewish youths in Germany at the end of 1938 have been retrained for future emigration as artisans, manual workers and agriculturists, according to an article by Dr. Rudolph Stahl in the second issue of Jewish Social Studies, quarterly journal of the Conference on Jewish Relations. The article, “Vocational Retraining of Jews in Nazi Germany, 1933-1958,” states that there are how about 60,000 Jews between the ages of 15 and 30 in the Reich. Other articles are “The Use of Death Records to Determine Jewish Population Characteristics,” by A.J. Jaffe; “The Austrian Government and the Hasidim During the Period by Reaction (1814-1848)” by Raphael Mahler and “The Opposition Parties in Poland and Their Attitude Towards the Jews and the Jewish Problem” by Joel Gang.
