PARIS, (JTA)—French Jews, although they became more "Jew
conscious" during the German occupation, do not expect to emigrate
from the country, Max Gottschalk, director of the overseas depart-
ment of the American Jewish Committee, told a press conference
here. He revealed that among 3,000 formal applications for emigra-
tion, covering about 6,000 persons including children, 98
percent were from foreign-born Jews, most of whom came to
France after 1933.
Mr. Gottschalk said that he found the Jewish situation in France
better than it was several months ago. He expressed the opinion
that "widespread anti-Semitism has no general nor serious charac-
ter" in France. French Jewish organizations, he declared, are watch-
ful of anti-Semitism, but so far have, found no cause for concern.

LONDON,' (JTA).—Although the majority of the British Labor
Party favors abolition of the White Paper and the immediate open-
ing of Palestine for Jewish immigration, it is understood here, on
the basis of important information received Tuesday, that Prime
Minister Attlee is not' prepared to go beyond slight modifications
and that the 'White Paper, for the time being, will continue to re-
main the basis of official British policy.
The Palestine problem came up for discussion on Wednesday
at a meeting of Labor Party members of Parliament.
It was emphasized here on Tuesday that despite Attlee's at-
titude, leading members of the Labor Party are doing their best '
to exert influence upon the labor government to obtain maximum
concessions to Jews, in a statement which Attlee is expected to
make in the House of Commons towards the end of this week.
