DescriptionSociety for the Guarding of the Health of the Jewish Population (24649395836).jpg |
English: At the beginning of World War I, as many Jewish (as well as non-Jewish) refugees poured away from the Western boundaries of the Russian Empire where fighting with the German and Austro-Hungarian Empires was taking place, aid organizations in places further away from the border areas began to be formed to address the needs of this influx of people. Many of the Jewish refugees holding Russian citizenship were also abroad within German or Austrian territories at the start of the war and rushed to get back to Russia once the war broke out. One such organization was the Society for the guarding of the health of the Jewish population. It was formed in September 1914 and set up aid centers in areas where refugees were concentrated and provided medical attention as well as food. To accomplish this they allocated funds from their own coffers and took donations. They seem to have been most active in St. Petersburg and the Vilna Governorate. This book stamp is from a book looted by the Nazis and sorted by Colonel Seymour Pomrenze, one of “the Monuments Men,” at the Offenbach Archival Depot. |
