As the Honorary President of the American Committee of the Oeuvre de Secours aux Enfants (OSE), which was devoted to the safeguarding of the health of Jews, Albert Einstein thanked the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) for helping French children escape to the United States. JDC played an active role in rescuing refugee children from internment camps in France and resettling them in America. At his home (112 Mercer Street) in Princeton, New Jersey, one day before his seventieth birthday, Albert Einstein is visited by a group of World War II European Jewish refugee children. Einstein
