AGUDAH ATTACK

A srael's Harasser

BERLIN.—(J. T. A.)—Fol-
lowing a fierce attack on the
'Zionist Organization, and a
veiled one at the British Man-
date, the Agudah Israel in con-
ference has decided not to par-
ticipate in the proposed World
Congress for Palestine.
Rabbi Pinellas Cohen submit-
ted three reasons for non-par-
ticipation, which the conference
accepted:
The neutrality of the Zionist
Organization with respect to
religion; the fact that the Brit-
ish Mandate is based on a "po-
litical constellation" contrary
to the war concept of the Ago-
dab, by which is meant that the
Agudah during the war was in
favor of the Central Powers;
the Jewish World Congress at
present would testify to Jewish
solidarity, thus giving. anti-
Semites a new weapon to wield
against the Jews.

TO KEEP FAITH

BUCHAREST.—(J. T. A.)—
The Roumanian government
has determined to keep the edu-
cational institutions open to all
citizens, irrespective of creed,
and to respect the equal rights
of the Jewish minority, Premier
Bratiano informed a deputation
of the Association of Rou-
manian Jews, which waited on
him to protest the restrictions
on Jewish students in Rou-
manian schools and the alleged
insidius distinction between
Jews, by establishing special
categories of citizenship.
The demand of the Christian
students to introduce at the
University of Klausenburg a
per cent norm limiting Jewish
admissions, has been rejected
by the University authorities,
says a Klausenburg report.
