sands of others in the Middle period between Passover and
Shevuoth will lie devoted to a
campaign for the strengthening
of traditional Jewish life.
Rabbi L. Levin was named
chairman of the campaign. He
will be assisted by Rabbi I.
Stollman and the other members
of the rabbinate.
The establishment of a kosher
restaurant is one of the current
projects of this orthodox drive.
The campaign also includes a
program of Kashruth supervision
and the preparation of certain
dairy products which have so far
been neglected. The Vaad Hara-
bonim and Merkaz are ready to
give financial support to a kosh-
er restaurant, and anyone inter-
ested in managing such an es-
tablishment is asked to contact

Anti-Semitism Still
Rife in Europe
JERUSALEM (Palcor). — Pal-
estine leaders are alarmed over
reports from Europe which in-
dicate growing anti-Semitism in
both liberated and neutral coun-
tries.
Confirmed reports indicate that
the position of Polish Jewry is
one of indescribable destitution.
rime fierceness of the anti-Semiti-
isni existing there is indicated
by the fact that the few Gen-
tiles, who, under the Nazis, were
instrumental in saving the lives
of Jews, are now begging that
their action be kept secret, lest
they be exposed to public wrath.
The murder of surviving Jaws
by Nazified Poles is reported a
frequent occurrence.
The situation in Hungary is
not much better. Budapest is the
only place where Hungarian
Jews are safe, because of their
concentration, but stray surviv-
ors, emerging from their hide-
outs in the provinces, are killed
in broad daylight by Hungarian
anti-Semites.
There is a serious problem in
Switzerland where the presence
of refugees is proving embarras-

mitted them temporarily in the
belief that they would evenually
be transferred to permanent
homes elsewhere.

Miss Michael, in addition to
accompanying Mr. Friedman at
the piano and playing several
solos, provides a running com-

Mr. Friedman is a native of

He is a graduate of the Insti-
