Abstract:
While the community indicates awareness of the presence of newcomers in St. Paul, the general "business-as-usual"approach appears to have led many local Jews to assume that all the problems were being handled successfully by the responsible agencies and synagogues. In reality, however, this is not the case. Experience seems to indicate that the best absorption comes not via the agencies but with personal contacts and guidance.
