  ... man, that he was too conscientious, too responsible. That was why he stopped confiding in Cuker. In light of these facts it is clear that all of the subsequent labor recruitment actions and resettlements were organized and carried out by the central office in Sosnowiec and its delegates, with the assistance of trusted officials, who cooperated with the police in Bendzin and Sosnowiec. Cuker's end was tragic. Together with Nussbaum and Teichler, he was sent to Auschwitz by the Chrzanow police. A short time later came the news that all three had died of heart failure. After Cuker's arrest, the books were checked by the Gestapo men Kranuy and Freitag. This audit was undertaken because of several anonymous letters, in which thejudenrat was accused of taking money in return for apartments ...

They were joined by Betsalel Cuker, Moyshe Nagoshiner, Kalmen Teichler, Zelig Grajower, Shmuel Yosef Weiss, and Mendl Nussbaum. With the installation of the new Judenrat, life became somewhat easier in the city. The new members' position in the Jewish community and experience in communal affairs guaranteed a degree of security against the neglect indulged in by the former bosses, Fasek Weber and David Bishte. The latter, pursuing their own self-interest, slavishly and blindly carried out the will of the Germans, rather than using decep-tion to ease ...
