Source B - Jewish Education in the Ghetto
March 17, 1942
"In the evening, there was a talk with the female counselors. I lectured for almost a full hour, but the counselors were so tired, they did not pay the kind of attention to the lecture that I usually require. I wanted to start a debate on Jewish education but failed. I hope I will succeed next time.
What do you tell a child that steals coal? The child sees everyone stealing and loses all sense of morality."
