THE SCHOLAR RESCUE FUND ALUMNI RESEARCH
Mr. LEAHY. Mr. President, next year I intend to speak more about the
Scholar Rescue Fund Alumni Research Program.
I am aware of this through my friendship with Dr. Henry Jarecki. I
believe that it is something more Senators should be aware of, and
something that would appeal to Senators in both parties. Perhaps one of
the best ways to describe it would be '''to include in the Record remarks,
by Dr. Jarecki,''' and I so ask unanimous consent to have those remarks
printed.
There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
the Record, as follows:
Allan Goodman has, in introducing me, spoken of the fact
that I accepted Henry Kaufman's mandate to help develop the
IIE's newly-established Scholar Rescue Fund. Doing what Henry
tells me to do is easy for me and this mandate was even
easier: I have been a refugee and I am an academic; and the
risks of free speech are –tattooed on the skin of my relatives
and on my mind–. I wanted to start immediately.
When I came to talk to Allan about the program, he was as
enthusiastic as I was but wondered whether we should wait
with the start until we had the endowment funds to make sure
that the program would last. His comments sounded so sensible
that I didn't at first know what to say. But that, as people
who know me, didn't last too long.
I told him how, in 1937, Franklin Roosevelt had convened a
conference of representatives from 80 countries in Evian,
France, to encourage them to accept Hitler's Jews, and how
speaker after speaker had praised President Roosevelt's
wonderful idea but said that, unfortunately, his particular
country could not take part at that moment because of a
unique problem they were having in his particular country
just at that particular time. Finally, the representative of
Rafael Trujillo, then known as the Butcher of Santo Domingo
for having machine-gunned hundreds of Haitian refugees who
tried to cross the border into the Dominican Republic, got up
to speak. Trujillo was, understandably enough, in bad odor
all over the world and so he tried to make amends by letting
his representative announce that Trujillo had agreed to let
100,000 of the refugees settle in the Dominican Republic.
The world's refugee organizations then set to work to make
sure that it all went well. They started by developing
precise criteria: how many merchants, how many farmers, and
what ages they should be; how many married and unmarried and
a lot more. By the middle of 1938 they had developed their
criteria and started to interview prospective candidates for
the trip. By that time, it was a lot easier to interview
candidates because many of them were already in concentration
camps. Over the next 9 months, these careful choosers found
900 who could go to the Dominican Republic, where most of
them settled in a small town called Sosua and survived the
war. Over 99,000 were left behind to die.
When I got through with my story, '''Allan told me to get on
with it and get on with it we have after I found __generous
kindred spirits__ in my'''== fellow Trustee Jeffrey Epstein and in
George Soros, both of whom I want not to thank== in the name of
persecuted scholars in over 60 countries from whom we now
have requests for help. Sixty countries! What are they
thinking of?get a load of this next bit How can benighted tyrants and despots be smart
enough to know how powerful free-thinking scholars can be?
And how they must intimidate them into silence. ``They kill
your voice even before their kill you,'' said Maimul Khan, a
rescued scholar from Bangladesh who is here with us tonight.
