Clothing and shoes purchased
in Palestine, tea and cotton goods
bought in India, foodstuffs, soap
and shoes purchased in South
Africa and Australia are some of
the items that were stockpiled in
Teheran and later shipped in par-
cel form. The purchase of goods
in Palestine has given substan-
tial support to industrial produc-
tion there.

The Iranian government per-
mitted the J.D.C. to establish a
branch post office in its Teheran
warehouses to expedite the for-
warding of packages. The cost of
about a third of the food par-
cels was defrayed by individuals
seeking to aid relatives. J.D.C.
provided money or goods for the
other two-thirds.

Mr. Passman disclosed that the
South African Jewish War Ap-
peal had participated fully in the
work of aiding the Polish Jew-
ish and other refugees cooperat-
ing closely with the J.D.C. In
addition special allocations, in-
cluding 25,000 pounds for the
Jewish community in Hungary,
were made available to the J.
D.C.

Religion and Culture Not Included in
Czech Demand for Ass'milation

NEW YORK (WNS)—Jan Ma-
saryk, Czech Foreign Minister, de-
clared here last week that his
government's policy of "assimila-
tion of Jews" did not contemplate
the religious and cultural assimi-
lation of the Jews in Czechoslo-
vakia.
Mr. Masaryk made the state-
ment in a conversation with Ja-
cob Rosenheim, president of the
Agudas Israel World Organiza-
tion. He said full religious free-

A conference of center staffs

Several members of the Detroit

land, St. Louis, Pittsburgh and
Baltimore and Newark.
They will discuss problems af-

full right to give their children a
religious education in accordance
with the tenets of their faith and
in their original language and to
build and maintain hospitals, or-

He stressed, however, that not
even friendly minority groups in
Czechoslovakia will have political
minority rights. His government's
policy, he added, was not to be
construed as a change in the tra-

Czechoslovakia toward Zionism
