ABSTRACT
Historians of the Holocaust have been generally critical of both the Roosevelt Administration and the American people for their attitude toward the refugee problem. While no doubt correct in emphasizing the general American apathy toward the refugees, historians have completely ignored the efforts made both by individual Christians and Christian organizations to change this attitude and provide aid for the victims of the Nazis. Similarly neglected has been any study of interfaith cooperation on behalf of the refugees, one of the main goals of Jewish relief organizations.
