Juni 1947 19. Juni 1947 1 document JEWISH COMMITTEE HANNOVER OHE-STRASSE 8 TELEPHONE: 20178 Subject: L/K. To Chief Rabbis Council London June 19 the 7 194. Dear esteemed Rabbis and dear friends! A few days ago, a shipment of food was sent to Celle, which was intended for Bergen-Belsen for religious purposes. However, we learned that Celle has retained a larger quantity for the same purposes. We turn to you with the following explanation: It has been known to you for some time that Hannover has a larger number of Jewish residents, of whom a significant part are religious Jews. To our regret, we must express that the current attitude of indecision, whether Hannover has a claim to this shipment for its religious institutions, which we do not wish to enumerate at this time, is outrageous. We do not wish to quarrel over such matters, but we would like to hear your opinion on this issue. We have so far maintained complete harmony among our religious institutions in our city, and we wish to continue doing so. Therefore, we request a quick and positive response from you. With blessings, A. Lipschitte Religious Department Jewish Committee Religious Division Hannover

JEWISH COMMITTEE HANNOVER OHE-STRASSE 8 FERNRUF: 20178 Betrifft: L/K. An Chief Rabbis Council Londen 19. Juni den 7 194. Sehr cheschewe Rabbanin und liebe Chawerim ! Ver einigen Tagen kan eine Sendung von Lebensmitteln nach Celle an, die für Bergen-Belsen für religiöse Zwecke bestimmt sein sellte. Wir erfuhren jedoch, dass Celle für sich für dieselben Zwecke ein größeres Quantum zurückbehalten hat. Wir wenden uns an Euch mit der folgenden Ausführung: Es ist Euch schon seit längerer Zeit bekannt, dass Hannover eine größere Zahl jüdischer Einwohner, von welchen auch ein großer Teil religiöse Juden sind, hat. Zu unseren Bedauern müssen wir aus- drücken, dass die bisjetzige Haltung der Unentschlossenheit, on auch Hannover für ihre religiösen Institutionen, die wir jetzt nicht aufzählen möchten, Anspruch auf diese Sendung hat, ist empörend. Wir möchten uns nicht über solche Fragen herumstreiten, aber wir möchten Eure Meinung über diese Angelegenheit hören. Wir haben bis jetzt in unserer Stadt die vollständige Harmonie zwischen unseren religiösen Instanzen aufrechterhalten, und möchten dieses auch weiterhin tuen. Wir bitten deshalb von Euch eine schnelle und positive Antwort. . Mit Therah - Gruß A. Lipschitte Religions-AM Jüdisches Komitee? Religions-Abteilung Hannover

Nil Gor Bed I have received your letter from December 2 and will return the shofar to you shortly. I have not received any mail or other shipments for a long time.

For example, a kosher meat factory has now been established, which is the only one in the entire British zone. The mikveh will be completed in about 2 weeks. We also have other significant expenses and therefore truly urgently need your shipments. In anticipation of your prompt response, I remain Yours, Rabbi Lubinski. P.

Lubinski an Dr. Lichtigfeld 11. Nov. 194 7 1 document CH. P. LUBINSKI RABBI OF THE JEWISH CONGREGATION HANNOVER, den Wittekindstr. 34 Fernruf 416 90 November 11, 1947 Dear Dr. Lichtigfeld, I am very interested to hear from you, whether you have arrived back well. Unfortunately, I have not heard anything from you yet. Regarding the matter of supplying the Jewish prisoners with kosher provisions, I can inform you that this is being handled and taken care of from here. The matter of kosher provisions for the camps Emden and Senkwaarden has already been resolved, with the result that the meat is already being delivered from Hannover. I am in constant contact with the camps. As for the kosher provisions for Camp Belsen, I can inform you that Mar Laren and Mr. Otway have taken care of this matter. I have the approval that not only 50% but 100% kosher can be delivered. For the Exodus people, I urgently need various religious books. Regarding these people, I have all the help from the English authorities. They will not be regarded as DPs. In the new camps, things are still not entirely in order, but certainly much better than in Peppendorf and Am Stau. I would be pleased to hear from you again soon and greet you with (Torah greetings) Your devoted -Ch.R. Lubinski P.S. Mr. Lipski from the Jewish Relief Unit accuses me that the candles for Niedersachsen have not arrived.

CH. P. LUBINSKI RABBI OF THE JEWISH CONGREGATION HANNOVER, den Wittekindstr. 34 Fernruf 416 90 11. Nov. 194 7 . Sehr geehrter Herr Dr. Lichtigfeld kaufe Es interessiert mich sehr, einmal von Ihnen zu hören, ob Sie gut wieder angekommen sind. Leider hörte ich noch nichts von Ihnen. Was die Sache mit der Belieferung der Jüd.Gefangenen mit Koscher-Verpflegung betrifft, kann ich Ihnen mitteilen, daß diese von hier betrieben und erledigt wird, Die Sache mit der Koscher-Verpflegung für die Lager Emden und Senkwaarden ist bereits erledigt, mit dem Ergebnis, daß das Fleisch bereits von Hannover aus geliefert wird. Mit den Lägern stehe ich in dauerndem Kontakt. Was die Koscher-Verpflegung für Lager Belsen betrifft, so kann ich mitteilen, daß Mar Laren und Mr. Otway die Sache erledigt haben. Ich habe die Genehmigung, daß nicht nur 50% sondern 100% koscher geliefert werden können. Für die Exodus-Leute brauche ich dringend verschiedene religiöse Bücher. Bezüglich dieser Leute habe ich seitens der engl. Behörde alle Hilfe. Sie werden jedenfalls nicht als DP's angesehen. In den neuen Lägern ist es auch noch nicht ganz in Ordnung, aber jedenfalls viel besser als in Peppendorfnund Am Stau. Ich würde mich freuen, bald wieder von Ihnen zu hören und begrüße Sie mit ( Thorah-Grüßen Ihr ergebener -Ch.R.Lubinski NB Mr.Lipski von Jewish Relief Unit macht mir den Vorwurf, daß die Kerzen für Niedersachsen nicht angekommen sind.
