Weekly Review of the News of the World (Compiled From Cables of Independent Jewish Press Service) (See Also Page 3) OVERSEAS PALESTINE An American Flying Fortress from U. S. Army Headquarters in Frankfort, Germany, ar- rived at the airport at Lydia to take on three tons of books, especially Hebrew textbooks, contributed by the Jewish Agency for Palestine, for Jewish inmates of displaced persons camps in the U. S. zone of Germany. The shipment includes books about Palestine. The plane also carried Hanukah candles and prayer books for the Jewish DPs, sent by the Joint Dis- tribution Committee in Palestine. . . . A second U. S. plane is expected to arrive from Germany to transport two Jewish Palestine relief teams organized by the Jewish Agency to begin super- vision of welfare activities at Jewish DP camps. Captain Lipman of the U. S. Army will serve as liasion officer with the Jewish agency. Normal operations of the Tel-Aviv port, suspended since the outbreak of the war, were resumed as the first civilian passenger in six years landed from a British ship. The first Danish ship to anchor since the outbreak of the war is loading citrus fruit for Scandinavian countries. Danish vessels, before the war, car- ried the bulk of Palestine's citrus output to the countries of northern Europe. OVERSEAS ,• ■ • Friday, November 30, 1945 THE JEWISH NEWS Page Thirty A new wave of anti-Jewish pogroms, in which even the police of certain towns have joined, is sweeping Poland, and the Govern- ment is unable to cope with the situation, the Dziennik Polsi, Polish daily published in Lon- don by the foes. of the Warsaw Government, reports. In the town of Dzialoszyc, Kielce dis- trict, policeman participated, with anti-Semitic bands, in hunting down Jews who just emerged from German concentration camps or from hiding in the forests, the paper says. British Army authorities ordered the re-. moval of Zionist slogans, inscribed in Hebrew, Yiddish and English, on the gates of the form- er Belsen death camp. The order is defied by inmates of the camp, who each night write new Zionist slogans on the gates, replacing the ones taken down by the British. All nine Jewish candidates for the Yugo-. slavian Parliament. on Marshal Tito's govern- ment ticket, have been elected. President Edouard Benes of Czechoslovakia greeting a deputation of Jewish community leaders from Bohemia and Moravia, led by Dr. Frisher, expressed keen interest and • under- standing of the needs of surviving Czecho- slovak Jews, particularly the restoration of their property confiscated under the Nazi regime. He asserted his abhorance of anti- Semitism and thanked the Jewish leaders for their report of the Jewish population's loyalty and participation in the reconstruction of Czechoslovakia's commerce and industry. Relief parcels from Jewish organizations abroad are being distributed among the Jew- ish population of Poland, but, are still insuf- ficient. Particularly lacking are warm clothes for the coming winter, Dr. Emil Sommerstein, chairman of the .Jewish Central Committee, says. Dr. Sommerstein held conferences with Rabbi Schonfield. of England, visiting here on behalf of British Jewish relief organizations, and with representatives of Polish Jewish communities. • A fast by Palestine's Jewish soldiers in Cairo, and other points in the Middle East, coinciding with a fast proclaimed by the Palestine rabbinate, marked their protest against Foreign Secretary Bevin's statement restricting Jewish immigration to 1,500 per- sons a month, and further delaying the Pales- tine question. Inmates of Jewish camps in Germany and members of the Jewish Brigade in Europe proclaimed a 24 hour hunger-strike in pro- teSt against Bevin's statement. A new agricultural framing center for Jewish youth seeking to settle in Palestine was inaugurated in the German village Gail- lingen in the French zone of Germany, near the Swiss frontier. About 500 young Polish Jews, who have recently. fled there "from the East," will comprise the bulk of the center's population. "There is a growing impression in gov- ernment circles as well as in Zionist quarters, that the only alternative to an outright battle over the status of Palestine is the partition of Palestine more or less along the lines of the Peel Commission's report, allowing for the creation of a Jewish and an Arab state," according to The Liberator, writing in the London Observer. Sir Robert Waley Cohen, president of the United Synagogues of London, implied in an address at a meeting of the Anglo-Jewish Association that it is opportune now to form an anti-Zionist worldwide Jewish Agency to oppose the Jewish Agency for Palestine com- prised of Zionists and non-Zionists. He told the Association that it is significant that For- eign Secretary Bevin did not once mention' the Jewish Agency for Palestine, the Zionist movement is shipwrecked and it is opportune to form. a new' worldwide Jewish representa- tion. The representative of ultra-Orthodox, non-Zionist Agudath Israel, promptly disas- sociated himself from Sir Robert Waley Cohen's sentiments. Sir Robert is under fire for having recently countermanded the Chief Rabbi's telegram to synagogue wardens urg- ing them to proclaim a Sabbath of solidarity . with Jewry's claims on Palestine. His resigna- tion from the presidency of the United Syna- gogues has been widely demanded. • Cardinal Primate of Hung a r y Josef Mindszenti issued a pastoral letter to be read in all churches of Hungary appealing to the Hungarian people to revert to humane prin- ciples and to friendly relations with the Jews. He points out that God avenges Israel by bringing down His divine wrath on all peo- ple persecuting the Jews. He also alleged that Hungarian Jews in Slovakia are deported naked and barefooted across the border into Hungary. A report from a generally reliable -Warsaw source reveals that the Polish government is planning to deprive of their citizenship all displaced Polish nationals in Germany who refuse to return home, including Jewish. DPs in German camps. Of the 85,000 dis- placed Jews in the British and Aniericati zones of Germany, 58,000 are Polish nationals. These have previously declared that they prefer to be stateless rather than return to Poland.
