State Secretary Walter Stein, speaking in the name of the Bavarian Ministry of Refugees, welcomed the children and other Jewish guests. He stressed that the inhabitants of Foehrenwald–last remaining Jewish DP camp in Germany–should not regard themselves as displaced persons but as guests and welcome inhabitants of the German State.
