Foundation Fund and the Jew-
ish National Fund as well as the
Mizrachi Palestine Fund.
With a million homeless and
uprooted European Jews look-
ing to Palestine as their only
hope for a future of security
and freedom, the UPA is seek-
ing to mobilize maximum sup-
port to meet the $35,300,000
budgetary requirements of the
Palestine Foundation Fund and
the Jewish National Fund in
1945.
With the financial aid of the
UPA, 350,000 refugees have been
brought to Palestine and in-
tegrated into the Jewish com-
munity since the beginning of
the Hitler regime.

9,100 Immigrants Entered
Palestine in Nine Months
Since Jan. 1, a total of 9,100
Jewish men, women and children
have entered the Jewish Na-
tional Home in Palestine, ac-
cording to a report from the
Jewish Agency Immigration De-
partment received by cable
from Jerusalem by Dr. Heller.
The agencies receiving their
American support from the
U.P.A. have made possible the
rescue and resettlement in Pal-
estine of more than 350,000 Jew-
ish refugees from lands of op-
pression since 1933, Dr. Heller
said, pointing out that U.P.A.
funds are utilized to aid in the
adjustment and rehabilitation of
new immigrants, the construc-
tion of housing accomodations
for them, and their ultimate ab-
sorption into the economic struc-
ture of Jewish Palestine.

DR. JAMES G. HELLER

Claims Medical Schools
Rejedt 12 out of 13 Jews

NEW YORK (WNS)—Over-
whelming evidence of discrim-
ination against Jews by the na-
tion's medical schools was dis-
closed in a countrywide survey
which reported that 12 of every
13 Jewish applicants for medical
degrees were denied admission.
These figures were contained
in an article written for The
American Mercury by Dr. Frank
Kingdon, who asserted that three
of every four Gentile applicants
were accepted for training by
medical colleges.
Dr. Kingdon disclosed that,
while campaigns for tolerance
and equality have been gaining
support, discrimination flourishes
to the extent that only half as
many Jewish applicants are ad-
mitted to medical schools today
as were admitted 25 years ago.

The musical portion of next
Wednesday's program will in-
clude songs by Mrs. Joseph M.
Markel, accompanied on the
piano by Mrs. Ethel Goldman
Mendelsohn.
