Of these, approximate- ly 600 have joined Marshal Tito's forces and are fighting the Nazis. Five thousand Yugoslav Jews have escaped to Italy, but thus far only 2,000 have reached liberated territory. The others are either in hiding or have been captured. The great majority of Yugoslavia's 70,000 Jews were long ago seized and slaughtered or deported, according to the Intergovernmental Committee's information. Emigrants Must Give Up Prosperity to Go to Zion LONDON, Nov. 28 (JTA) — Bulgarian Jews desiring to emi- grate to Palestine will be obliged to abandon all property and sign waivers of future claims, the Sofia radio announced.

S., according to Prof. Friedrich, should adopt a policy calling for: 1. Removal of present restric- tions on the movement of people into and out of Palestine. 2. Removal of restrictions to settlement and reclamation, such as restrictions on land purchase. 3. Removal of restrictions on the movement of goods into and out of Palestine, as far as prac- ticable. 4. A program of rapid and large-scale economic develop- ment, including basic reclama- tion and irrigation works, in- dustrial development and the like, with a view to maximizing absorptive capacity. 5. Opposition tb all efforts to use political maneuvers, especial- ly terror, for the purpose of pre- venting the development of a Jewish majority, should the Jews throughout the world con- tinue to back development in Palestine and thus bring this about. 6. Participation in such inter- national authorities as may be required to insure an unimpeded implementation of natural econ- omic trends. In making his recommenda- tions, Prof. Friedrich states: "Now is the time for the United States to decide upon a definite and constructive policy toward the Jewish National Home in Palestine. It should be a policy in keeping with our general objectives, and it should be one which we are prepared to back and see through."

Tobias as co-chairman of the drive. "This figure has been reached," said Zivian, "through the untir- ing and unrelenting drive of 25 Franklin Hills gallants.

"Our gallants are not quitting," continued Zivian, "content with their early showing. The drive will go on through the month of December with increasing fervor and effort rather than any signs of let-down."
