Original Toronto Star caption: These European Jews were but a few of the millions persecuted in the holocaust of World War II. So often in the past exile and Persecution had followed the Jew around the world. Now he could return to the land of his forefathers and make it his own. Israel has provided something no land ever did . . . a sense of security not only to the refugee; but to Jews around the world who link it with survival.
