Page Fourteen Urge U.S. Seek Restoration of Cremieux Laws Delegation of French Exiles Present Plea on Behalf of Jews in Algeria WASHINGTON, (JTA) — A memorandum analyzing the ef- fect of the abrogation of the Cremieux decree on the status of the native Jews in Algeria and asking the intercession of the United States to bring about the restoration of this decree, was presented this week to Under- secretary of State Welles by a delegation of French exiles rep- resenting the French-Jewish Rep- resentative Committee, which is affiliated with the World Jewish Congress. The delegation, composed of Capt. Pierre Dreyfuss, Henri Torres, Paul Jacob and Paul Weill, was introduced to Welles by Dr. Nahum Goldmann, chair- man of the administrative com- mittee of the World Jewish Con- gress, It pointed out that "the abrogation of the Cremieux de- cree is the most unjust racial dis- crimination ever inflicted upon French citizens of Jewish faith who are natives of Algeria." The 16-page memorandum re- views the history of Jewish citi- zenship in Algeria and offers proof that the abrogation of the Cremieux decree is illegal under the organic law of the French Republic. Contrary to offering a basis for better understanding with the Arabs, this abrogation jeopardizes the possibility of se- curing a just and complete emancipation of the Arabs, it points out, Unveiling of Monuments The husband and sons of the late Mrs. Rose Serlin invite rela- tives and friends to attend the un- veiling of a monument over her grave on Sunday, May 30, at 4 p. m., at Clover Hill Park Ceme- tery. * * * The family of the late Mrs. Camilie Rill Ressler wishes to invite relatives and friends to the unveiling of the tombstone Sun- day, May 30, at 2:30 p. m., at Beth El Memorial Park. * * * The family of the late Israel Esser requests the presence of his friends at the .unveiling of a memorial at Clover Hill Park Cemetery on Memorial Day, Sun- day, May 30, at 12 noon.

Center Offers Special Summer Membership The Jewish Community Center again offers a special summer membership, effective June 15. Special membership rates, good for three months, will give Cen- ter members an opportunity to participate in social, cultural, recreational and athletic activi- ties. Since the outdoor court proved such a popular spot last summer for all activities, the summer va- riety program will be held again in this cool, comfortable setting. The health education schedule has been enlarged to permit junior and intermediate boys and girls for afternoon swim periods, Monday through Friday. As a new feature, the outdoor court will be lined for shuffleboard. The membership can later be converted to a full year's mem- bership. This offer ends on July 31. Further inquiries can be made at the Center office.

CHILDREN'S CORNER Dear Boys and Girls: Sunday, Decoration Day, is an appropriate time for all of us to take stock of what is happening in the world. As we pay honors to the men who gave their lives for our coun- try in the past, let us remember that we must strive to protect the lives of our valiant fighters for freedom in the present war. The best way to do that is to provide our servicemen with the best materials with which to carry this war to victory. On Wednesday and Thursday, June 9 and 10, we will celebrate Shovuoth. It is the Festival of the Giving of the Law to the Jewish people. It is also one of the great harvest festivals, still observed as such in commemoration of our position as an agricultural people in Palestine. I wish you all a pleasant Sab- bath. UNCLE DANIEL. To an audience that filled practically every seat, Sunday afternoon at the Masonic was a session of music that will not soon be forgotten. The Freiheit Gesang Farein's 18th annual concert brought together a pro- gram of both quality and quan- tity. In the opinion of this de- partment, there was too much quantity, though most of it good. The chorus was under the able direction of its new conductor, Henri Goldberg . The chorus was at its best in Judas Maccabeus, but at times seemed almost over-awed at singing from the same platform with the incomparable Alexand- er Kipnis whose fine art lifted the entire production to a high level, ably assisted by Molly Goldberg, soprano and Carl Neu- mann, tenor formerly of the Vienna Folks Opera who holds a position as cantor with an im- portant Boston congregation. A fact that can be envied by many local synagogues who could use his great talents with benefit. The program was rounded out by a number of selections from operatic and concert repretore by Kipnis, a fine group of selections by Ilya Schkolnik with Margrit Herman A. Becker, 58, of 3261 Mannebach at the piano.
