The pogroms were the terrible
end product of a wave of violence
and anti -Jew is It disturbances
swept the Arab world last
year in the wake of the events in
Palest inv.
As the tide of hate subsided,
Jews from the hill towns and vil-
lages began to push into the fes-
tering ghettos of North Africa's
chief cities, Casablanca, Marra-
kech, Rabat, and Tunis, searching
for security against future vio-1
lence. Still another result was a
sudden spurt in emigration for,
Israel by those who could leave.

Soviet Pamphlet
Blasts Zionism

NEW YORK (WNS) Soviet
views with regard to Zionism
were revealed recently in a pam-
phlet, 150,000 copies of which have
been circulated defining Zionism
as a "reactionary, anti-democratic
trend of the Jewish bourgeoisie."
At the same time the pamphlet
stated that all members of the
Israeli Cabinet are Zionists and
that Zionism "attempts to dis-
tract Jewish workers from the
class struggle."
Jewish workers "outside the
Zionist organization," it said, are
united in the Communist Party in
Israel and support a program de-
manding that "Israel conclude a
pact with the Soviet Union and
the countries of the new democ-
racy."

TO DISCUSS DISCIPLINE
Discipline as related to the
home, school and informal group
experiences will be discussed for
and with the Jewish Parents In-
stitute in a panel of professional
persons, at 8:30 p.m., Monday at
the Center.

HAIFA—(Z0A)— More than
875 Jews, the remnants of a Jew-
ish community which settled in
Shanghai 40 years ago, and once
numbered 18,000. have begun
life anew in Israel after a two and
a half month voyage from the
Chinese port.
They carried with them six
scrolls of the Torah from the
Shanghai Synagogue, originally
brought there by the vanguard of
3.000 Jews fleeing pogroms in
Czarist Russia.
A spokesman fur the group de-
clared that bringing the scrolls
to Israel meant that the Shanghai
' Jews were transferring their
heart to the Jewish State.
