Two museums each will receive $250,000 from the United States to create an archive about money looted during the Holocaust. The agreement is part of $25.5 million the United States agreed to pay in December to Hungarian Holocaust survivors in the case of Hungarian Jewish-owned goods on a train, known as the “Gold Train,” that were looted by the Nazis and then confiscated by U.S. troops during World War II.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
