Rabbi Gedalja Rozenman and the former Director of
the Kehilla, the engineer Efrajim Barasz. He ordered

to other leading Jewish figures. Soon afterward, a
Judenrat was appointed containing twenty-four Jews,
including two women. They included: Rabbi Rozen-
man, Efrajim Barasz, Dowid Subotnik, Mr. Liman,
