SS Serpa Pinto (Sep 1941) (see Holocaust Children Studies)
PM (New York, Thursday, September 25, 1941)
Hitler's Terror Behind Them, A New Horizon Lies Ahead: The Portuguese liner Serpa Pinto brought in 51 refugee children yesterday from Unoccupied France by way of Lisbon. Some were unsmiling, stamped with memories of hunger and privation in Nazi concentration camps. Others scampered about the deck, in worn faded clothes and shoddy sandals, like children on holiday. Each was tagged and numbered. Erich Thorn, a 12-year-old hah had the longest journey. He started two years ago from Vienna. His mother died in a truck. His father tried to commit suicide. In France he got diphtheria. Finally the U.S. Committee for Care for European Children found him and took him in. Like many of the children, all transported at the Committee's expense, his passport is marked Heimatlos-Stateless. The Committee will place each one in American homes. The Serpa Pinto was a clean ship. (Foto by Leo Lieb, PM Stadd)
Clipping from the newspaper PM Daily showing the arrival of Jewish refugee children in New York, through the assistance of HIAS (Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society), to illustrate an article by William Walton: "Europe Sees HitlerSlipping"
... More eloquent spokesmen were 51 refugee children aboard the Serpa Pinto. All younger than 15, they already are fugitives from Hitlerism. None spoke English. But their faces, some dulled by the terror of Fascist concentration camps, others bright with the excitement of new horizons, were the best commentary on what Fascism has done to Europe. The U.S. Committee for the Care of European Children had brought them to safety in America. Behind they left parents who are Hitler's prisoners.
For the others there were sudden shouts of joy, cheers and waving when a mother, a brother, a dear friend was sighted at the Serpa Pinto's rail as she was warped into her berth.
For the children, it was not a happy reunion with old friends, but new life starting in a strange, far land.
