discrimination and prejudice in
the schools.

fare Federation during the past
year.

dicated that both requests are
still pending. He also informed
the delegates of the need for
additional expansion.

tion in war industries. This com-
mittee was composed of the
national civic protective agen-
cies.

Paris ORT Views
Need of Workers

PARIS, (JTA)—The need for
speedy reintegration of Jewish
artisans and workers in their
previous occupations, and action
to save Jewish youths and chil-
dren from further demoralization
was stressed here by Dr. Aron
Syngalovski, vice-president of
the World. Ort Union, addressing
the first national conference
the French ORT since the lib-
eration of France.
Dr. Syngalovski said that.
thousands of artisans and work-
ers again could become self-
supporting if they were enabled
to rent workshops and obtain
tools and machinery. He warned,
however, that it 'was "a perni-
cious illusion to think that
the reconstruction of ruined
Jewish life can be realized by
Jewish means and organizations
alone."
According to • reports delivered
at the conference, groups of
artisans and workers are already
being aided by the ORT in
Paris and provincial cities to
rent shops and obtain machinery.
