Non-Jews of Dallas

Give $70,000 to WA

NEW YORK.--Here's the most
unusual story to come out of the
unprecedented $100,000,000 cam-
paign of the United Jewish Ap-
peal. It took place in Dallas, Tex.
Dallas non-Jews, led by the ci-
ty's two outstanding publishers
and inspired by a Catholic rector,
a Methodist minister and a Bap-
tist layman, this year decided to
conduct their own non-sectarian
campaing on behalf of the UJA.
In one week, Dallas non-Jews
had raised $70,000 for the UJA.
This unprecedented action helped
Dallas achieve the phenomenal
total of $750,011 against a 1946
quota of $400,000.

Arrested in Austria

VIENNA (JTA)—One Jew was
killed and 20 other displaced Jews
were arrested here following a
riot which involved Jewish DP's,
Austrian civilians, and Austrian
police.
The incident began. when three
Jewish DP's accused a civilian of
stealing UNRRA boxes containing
potatoes and flour, and a fight en-
sued. Austrian police arrived and
arrested the three. At the police
station, the group encountered a
crowd of DP's, who had come
there to protest another incident
in which Jews were arrested.
Two of the three arrested Jews
attempted to escape and in the
ensuing melee, 16-year-old Mor-
ris Gottesman, displaced Polish
Jew, was killed and another
slugged into unconsciousness.
