COMPLETE NE1V FILM
Announcement of the comple-
tion of the film "One People" has
been made by Dr. Joseph Lichten-
sztul, newly appointed director of
the Foreign Language Depart-

ment of the Anti-Defamation
League of Bnai Brith. An ani-
mated cartoon in full color, the
movie is a vivid presentation of
the making of America by the
varied peoples who came from
foreign shores to help build this
nation.
According to Dr. Lichtensztul,
this film project is part of the
broad educational program of the
ADL's Foreign Language Depart-
ment which seeks to cement na-
tional unity on a solid democratic
base. Foremost in this depart-
ment's plan of action is coopera-
tion with the democratic, pro-
gressive forces within the foreign
language groups. Since foreign
language speaking groups are a
fertile field for propagandists of
false and narrow nationalism, the
department also works to expose
and combat the activities of the
anti-Semitic and un-American ele-
ments in their ranks.
Plans for the broadest possible
distribution of the new film "One
People" are being formulated. Re-
quests have already been received
for European distribution through
the newly reorganized Bnal Brith
groups in former Hitler-devastat-
ed countries, and a representative
leaves shortly for the Continent
with a print of the film.

Gottschalk Claims Peace Treaties Do
Not Give Equal Rights Enforcement

NEW YORK (JTA)—The draft
of the peace treaties with Bul.
garia, Hungaiy, Rumania and
Italy, which are to be discussed
at the Peace Conference now
meeting in Paris, contain several
provisleihs calling for observance
of human rights and fundamental
freedoms, but do not contain any
provisions for enforcement, Dr.
Max Gottschalk, director of the
Foreign Affairs Department of
the American Jewish Committee.
said this week on the basis of in-
formation obtained from author.
itative quarters in London and
Paris.
Dr. Gottschalk, who has just
returned to the United States af-
ter an extended tour of Europe,
told a press conference that it is
necessary that all groups inter-
ested in the establishment of the
principle of equality press for en.
forcement provisions in the treat-
ies with former enemy countries.
"Another basic task," Dr. Gott.
schalk stated, "is to accelerate the
restitution to Jews of property

Students to Tour
Jewish Institutions

The Detroit Round Table of Ca-
tholics, Jews and Protestants has
arranged a tour of Jewish insti-
tutions on Monday, Aug. 5, for
students from leading univer-
sities who are participating in the
Dodge Community House Summer
Work Project.
In the morning they will visit
the Jewish Home for the Aged
at 11501 Petoskey Ave., and in the
afternoon they will be met by
Rabbi Leon Fram, of Temple Is-
rael, at the Jewish Community
Center, where Rabbi Fram will
explain the work of the Jewish
Community Council of Detroit.
After a tour of the Center build-
ing, they will visit Temple Beth
El, where Rabbi Jay Kaufman
will explain the ritual, symbolism,
beliefs and practices of Judaism.

ARGENTINA IS CONGENIAL

BUENOS AIRES(WNS)—No ra.
cial or religious differences exist
for the Argentine Government or
the Argentine people, declared
Foreign Minister Bramulglia in a
statement to Rabbi Samuel Wahl,
of Cincinnati, who has been visit-
ing here. "The basis of the Gov.
ernment is the Constitution of the
country. Since this charter grants
equal rights to all inhabitants, re-
gardless of their race or religion,
there can be no question of racial
or religious discrimination on the
part of our Government," he said.

looted by the Nazis. While most
countries have adopted restitution
laws," he said, "actual return of
property proceeds very slowly, due
to unsatisfactory provisions fot
enforcement of these laws. In
Germany, Jewish property confis-
cated by the Nazis is part of the
assets blocked by the Allies. Its
release depends on decisions as
yet not made by the military gov-
ernments."
In order to create some basis
for the future existence of the
Jewish communities in Europe
and .to decrease the pressure for
emigration to overseas countries,
including Palestine, it is impera-
tive that human rights guarantees
and restitution of property should
be speedily insured, Dr. Gott-
schalk emphasized.
Another major factor affecting
European Jews, he reported, is
the question of assets in neutral
and allied countries belonging to
many of the six million Jews mas-
sacred by the Nazis, who left nc
heirs.

U. S. Troops Leave
Camps After Battles

FRANKFURT, (JTA)—All arm-
ed U.S. troops are being with-
drawn from Jewish DP camps In
Bavaria as a result of recent
clashes in which one Jew was
killed and several injured, it was
announced this week.
A disturbance at the Fohren-
wald camp, where troops wounded
six Jews who were attempting
to leave the camp, resulted from
the fact that guards halted 16
DP's who were leaving the camp
to attend the funeral of Isaac
Feldberg, a DP who was killed
by German police, it was learned.
The Jews had been given permis-
sion to attend the funeral, but
the guards had not been in-
formed.
A military government state-
ment said that the DP's "marched
out of the camp 16 abreast" as
an infantry company was being
relieved of guard duty. Major
Philip Steers, an AMG official at
the camp, that that when the
DP's came out of the camp, "the
tactical troops jumped from their
trucks and with fixed bayonets
walked slowly toward the crowd."

OTTAWA, (JTA) — The t w o
largest Canadian labor organiza.
tions, the Canadian Congress of
Labor and the Trades and Labor
Congress of Canada, this week
declared that "racial discrimina-

Dominion's immigration policy

European refugees as a humani-
tarian duty. The statements were

must do her part."

Earlier a Canadian army offi-
cer who recently returned from
Europe, where he was in charge
of DP settlement in the area
around the Beisen camp, told the
Immigration Committee that
"Jews are not desirable immi-
grants for Canada."

The witness, Lieut. Col. Arthur
Hicks, added that he was opposed
to Jewish immigration because
Jews came from overcrowded ci-
ties and their morals were "low
"People from some countries in, comparison to Canadian stan-
may, because of their back- dards." He admitted that none of
grounds, education or custom, fit the 10,000 displaced Jews in the
into Canadian life more easily
than people from some other
countries, but race, however, de-
fined, or nationality, ought not to
be considered at all," the labor
groups stated.

On the matter of refugees from
Europe; they said: "The admis-
sion of refugees is not really part
of the immigration question. Im-
migration is an economic ques-
tion. The admission of refugees,
though it has economic aspects, is
primarily a humanitarian ques-
tion. Canada is under an obliga-
tion to humanity to admit her
due share of refugees, even if it
costs her something. It may ac-
tually bring her important bene-
fits. But even if It does not, she
