n display for the public. Right now the focus is Jewish museums, specifically with Holocaust related exhibits, though other establishments would also be considered, said Gary Osen, the New Jersey-based attorney who represented Sachs in his fight for the return of the posters from Berlin's German Historical Museum. Osen said talks are also under way for a possible special exhibition of some of the posters at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp memorial the former Nazi camp on the outskirts of Berlin where Sachs' father was briefly held before he fled Germany for the United States. "The net result will be that a substantially larger number of the posters from this collection will be on public view than would have been had they remained in the German Historical Museum," Osen said. Sachs is also going to hold onto four of the posters for himself including an advertisement for Manoli cigarettes by artist Lucian Bernhard. He said it has special significance to him because Bernhard co-founded the art publication Das Plakat, or The Poster, with his father in 1910 and was a family friend. "As a child I knew Lucian Bernhard. He used to come and visit at the house, so that one had a personal meaning to me," he said. Born in 1881, Hans Sachs began collecting posters while in high school. By 1905, he was Germany's leading private poster collector, with an eventual total of 12,500 posters many displayed in a specially built gallery in his home.

By JAMAL HALABY, Associated Press AMMAN, Jordan (AP) Jordan will prevent a mass exodus of Syrian refugees from entering its territory if President Bashar Assad's regime collapses, and will instead create a safe haven inside Syria to protect them, Jordan's prime minister said Thursday. Abdullah Ensour's remarks reflect widely held concerns in Jordan, which is already hosting 285,000 Syrian refugees and has exhausted its meager health care, education, water and energy resources. Jordan is also anxious that the lawlessness and street chaos that could follow Assad's collapse would spill over Syria's southern border into the kingdom a traditionally quiet country with a prided security record in the volatile Mideast. "If the regime collapses and there was another exodus of refugees, we will stop them and keep them in their country," Ensour told reporters in his office. His aides said Jordan however has not yet decided and would unlikely close its northern border to block refugees. Ensour said that rather than taking in another exodus, Jordan would dispatch special forces to "secure safe havens for the Syrians inside their country." "We do not encourage our Syrian brothers to come to Jordan because their country needs them more and they should remain there," he added. Ensour did say whether he thought Assad would fall or not, but said Jordan has had "no contacts" with his regime in recent weeks. Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
