If the country is properly developed, both peoples can live here in, peace and a Jewish National Home can be built in cooperation with Arab workers, on the basis of equality in a common homeland, the manifesto added. Arab trade union leaders, including George Nassar, who was one of the delegates to the World Trade Union conference in London last Spring, stressed the neces- sity for solidarity between Arab and Jewish workers. The conference also was addressed by representatives of Jewish labor groups: The manifesto also stressed the necessity of root- ing out fascism among the Arab , masses and attacked Arab leaders who, it said, under the veil of national- istic slogans, suppress. the vital interests of Arab workers. A conference of leading members of the Husseini family, to which the ex-Mufti of Jerusalem belongs, adopted a resolution demanding the return of Arab leaders and other political internees deported by ;r•Lie British for terroristic activities. It voted support cif Musa el Alami, Palestine "delegate" to the pan-Arab League.

The anti-Semitic line advises amiability toward British, Russians and Americans, stressing that Germany's real enemy is the Jew. This attitude allegedly is lent encouragement, in the American zone of occupation, by some American officers and enlisted men who fail to conceal their jealousy of Jewish fellow-soldiers holding administra- tive positions because of their knowledge of the Ger- man. language. The American Military Government is combating this anti-Semitism, but so far has been unsuccessful, the Jewish arrivals say. An urgent plea for liberation, addressed to world Jewry, has been smuggled out of Buchenwald death camp by Jews, who, months after Germany's defeat, are still inmates of the camp, allegedly subsisting on hunger rations. The Buchenwald inmates recently went on a hunger strike in protest against their rations and the alleged misbehavior of some of their American guards. thi JEWS OF EUROPE IN PRECARIOUS PLIGHT BOSTON (JPS)—"The Jewish question has not been disposed of by the Allied victory in Europe. Not even the extermination of 5,000,000 Jews, representing 70 percent of Europe's Jewish population outside of Russia, has eased the problem," Ernest S. Pisko writes in an article in the Christian Science Monitor, describ- ing the plight of Jewish remnants in liberated and de- feated countries. "Short of the opening of adequate non-European countries to resettlement, only an intensive campaign of education and the enforcement of international law . . . can give the Jewish remnants a fair means of security," Mr. Pisko writes. Destitute and Hungry : One of 200,000 destitute Jews (above left) of Romania shown looking through refuse piles for food. Hungry, cold and homeless Jews in the liberated countries are looking to the Joint Distribution •Committee for relief. The JDC is one of the major agencies in the United Jewish Appeal. Orphans of Nazism : Two children, presumably broth- er and sister (above right), the latter crippled by Nazi torture, were rescued by liberating armies but left to shift for themselves. Only generous support by American Jewry can help to rehabilitate them. The UJA derives its funds locally through the Allied Jewish Campaign, an associate agency in the War Chest of Metropolitan Detroit. 1 The Long Road Back : Yes, they are free people once again, but where are they going? Herded from their homes to Nazi concentration camps, the line of liberated Jews (ex- treme right) are on the march to nowhere. Many hope to be resettled in Palestine through funds provided by the United Palestine Appeal, a UJA agency. •.,•• icy •:•••
