NEW YORK (Special)—
An Egyptian resolution cal-
ling on the United Nations
to end religious and racial
persecution and discrimina-
tion immediately was adopt-
ed unanimously Tuesday by
the United Nations General
Assembly.
The action followed state-
ments by the Soviet Union and
British that they would vote for
the resolution despite the fact
that it did not go far enough.
Deputy Foreign Minster Vishin-
sky of the Soviet Union said the
resolution was rather general and
included no precise data "whereas
we know that such racial perse-
cutions are now taking place."
Delegates had expressed the
view that the Egyptian resolution
had been proposed for the purpose
of Introducing the Palestine ques-
tion. They also held the view that
Vishinsky was alluding to the re-
cent incidents in Palestine.
The Zionist Emergency Council
welcomed the resolution "as far
as it goes." The circumstances of
its adoption, however, "arouse
some misgivings," the council said.
Pointing -out that the resolution
was sponsored by Egypt, the coun-
cil charged that "Egypt, now
posing in the Assembly as the de-
fender of the persecuted and the
oppressed" was, as a leading mem-
ber of the Arab League, respons-
ible for the "continuing boycott
of Jewish exports from Palestine,"
was giving the Grand Mufti shel-
ter and was providing hiho "every
facility to carry on political activi-
ties calculated to lead in due
course to widespread bloodshed in
Palestine and to attacks upon
Jews there."
Hadassah
. Reelects
Mrs. Epstein Again
BOSTON (WNS)—The 32nd an-
nual convention of Hadassah closed
here with the re-election of Mrs.
Moses P. Epstein to the presi-
dency.
Addressing the convention, the
four-time president told the dele-
gates that Hadassah must prepare
"for a crucial year in Jewish his-
tory. one that will see tightening
tension and shortening lines of
straggle on the Zionist scene and
elsewhere, requiring a continued
effort to win the peace."
