Riilknn Jews to an pxtent eiiinl to Hint
sufferprl hy their co-relli:ionists In
other war-torn countries, but that po
litical mid religious repressive meas
ures have been lacking.
The first detailed account of the sit
uation In Serbia In many months is
from lr. Isaac Alcnhiy, chief rabbi of
Serbia, with liendiiiarters In Jtel
giiido. He said llelnrndo wiih still
without regular commimlciitlon with
the provinces, because the railroads
and bride's destroyed by the Austrlans
hove not been restored.
"IinrliiK the war," lie wrote. "Jews
In I!elt;rade suffered proportionately
mnrp than the rest of the population.
Most of their habitations were exposed
to gunfire throughout (tie 1.1 months
that the city wns under bombardment. t
Almost all homes lire destroyed. The
Jewish population of the city, formerly
8,0(10, now numbers no more than 4..100.
The number Is helng Increased dairy

still with Hip colors.
Have Suffered Terribly.
'Tconnnilcnlly. the Serbian Jews
have suffered terribly. Ilccause of
the uncertain political situation, all
regular commerce is Impossible, and It
If ditllcult for Jewish citizens to Im
prove their condlllon. This hits do
prlvpil Institutions of financial aid'
from the native population. Jewish
schools are totally destroyed and the
children cannot be educated.
"Such a situation Is unfortunate, for
thp war has brought ns new duties.
The Jews of oltl, Serbia tool; a very
active part In the P.nlkan wars and
In the world war. The years of fight
trig havp deprived more than -loo fam
ilies of their bread winners. These
ppoptn have to be helped.
In Iliilgarla, according to a reijort
from Miss Hetty (ioldman of this city,
thp ceindlllon of the Jews Is some
what better than In Serbia. Poverty
Is not so widespread, nor are health
conditions so bad.
The families of Jewish residents re-ci-lve

Clothing Greatest Need.
"The people needed clothing above
everything else," her report reads.
"Almost everybody Is shabby, and n
large percentage of the poor are prac
tically without clothing. I went into
many homes where the inmates had on
mere rags or were huddled In t'rn
blankets of sacking.
"The second greatest need Is for
staple foods, such ns dry beans, peas.
rice, vegetables, fats ntld the like.
Such supplies as nre to be had nre sotd
at exorbitant prices. American Jew
ish relief committees should send
clothing and food for about ri.l.non per- :
sons. (inly If this is done will they j
have protection against tin' hardships !
of next winter.
"I was painfully Impressed liy the
number of sick In lbnimniiin. In Bu
charest, out of h Jewish population of
4,1,000 there was an average of eight (
funerals n day hist winter. A large !
percentage of typhus cases In Pan-ha- j
rest and .lassy have been among Jews. I
The lack of clothing, especially of
clean underwear, has been a contrlh-
tiling cause. The inability to obtain j
fuel made families huddle in their
rooms. Some did not go outside their
Vines practically all winter."
