The hunger in the ghetto was so great, was so bad, that people were
laying on the streets and dying, little children went around
begging, and, uh, everyday you walked out in the morning, you see
somebody is laying dead, covered with newspapers or with any kind
of blanket they found, and you found...those people used to carry
the dead people in little wagons, used to bring them down to the
cemetery and bury them in mass graves. And every day thousands and
thousands died just from malnutrition because the Germans didn't
give anything for the people in the ghetto to eat. There was no
such thing. You can't walk in and buy anything, or getting any
rations. It's your hard luck. If you don't have it, you die, and
that's what it was.
