Speaker. the April 1962 issue of the Ladies Home Journal contains a stirring and dramatic account of the humane effort on the part of the present ruler of the Catholic Church. then known as Msgr. Angelo Roncalli. to save some of the Jewish men. women and children facing Nazi extermination in Hungary during World War II. The article is written by my dear friend. Ira Hirschmann. who was at the time stationed in Turkey as the representative of the U.S. War Refugee Board with the rank of Ambassador. His role in saving many Jews from Europe via Turkey and later bringing them to Palestine is well known and is one of the most humane and dramatic chapters of the war years. In the article referred to above.
