The ghettos were for the most part self governing and at the start they were not nearly as bad as they were a year later. At the start being part of the ghetto police was a good job, keeping order and was very sought after, the sons of the rich and powerful would get the jobs. As time progressed it was a way that one could ensure that they would have food, and be able to supply food to one's family.

Why did the Jews agree to work as police in the ghettos?

The ghettos were communities for Jews, run by Jews, the Germans rarely entered. This was done for a few reasons; it meant that the measures and decrees that the Germans dictated to the ghettos had to be announced and implemented by the Jewish governing bodies (the Jewish councils) and any complaints or dissension had to be aimed at them. In order to not only deal with this, but to enforce normal law and order the ghettos had to have a police force. Not only did Jews agree to become policemen, it was perhaps the most desirable job in the ghetto. It meant a job, which meant food for them and their families.
