Abstract:
Deals with the relief and rescue activities conducted by Klipper, a Jewish businessman from Vatra Dornei, Romania, on behalf of Romanian Jews deported to the camps of Transnistria, Jews in the Czernowitz ghetto, Jewish refugees from Poland who escaped to Romania, and in general for refugees from territories occupied by Romanian forces. Klipper saved himself and his family from deportation to Transnistria by escaping from Vatra Dornei to Bucharest in October 1941, aided by officers of the Wehrmacht and the Romanian Army who also helped him in his various relief activities. Klipper initiated vast relief activities, and also helped Jewish communal and Zionist organizations, including youth movements, to carry out clandestine as well as authorized relief and rescue activities, mainly for the deportees in Transnistria. After the war Klipper testified against Romanians charged with war crimes, who were tried by the People's Courts in Romania. In 1950 he was arrested by the communist authorities and died in prison in the same year. His family emigrated to Israel in 1959-60.
