the Jewish communities and in-
stitutions in Europe which have
disappeared be turned over to a
central Jewish agency for tem-
porary administration was adopt-
ed here at the closing session of
the European Conference of the
World Jewish Congress.
Other resolutions demanded
that Jewish refugees not be
forced to return to their native
lands; that the Allied govern-
ments provide Jewish represent-
ation in all international organ-
izations concerned with postwar
relief, rehabilitation and recon-
struction; that Jews be consulted
and heard on anti-Jewish war
crimes; And that destroyed Jewish
communities be aided in rebuild-
ing their economic and cultural
life.
The conference went on record
as 'supporting the United Nations
Charter, and - appealed to the
Allied governments military- ad-
ministration in Germany, as well
as to the UNRRA "to end the
shameful situation of the Jews in
the camps in Germany."
The Jewish Agency's demand
for the creation of a Jewish
State in Palestine was unani-
mously approved by the confer-
ence. An appeal to the countries
which gave haven to Jews dur-
ing the war to allow them to re-
main until they had "secured
places of definite settlement of
their own choice," was issued by
the conference.
