Israeli Minister Denies
Russian Ill-Treatment;
Hits Correspondents

MOSCOW, (JTA)—Mrs. Goldie
Meyerson, retiring Israeli Minis-
ter to the Soviet Union and
Israeli Minister of Labor, in a
statement to the press on a News-
week article asserting that she
was "indignant over treatment
she received during her brief
stay in Moscow," declared that "I
am indeed indignant, not over
anything I have met in the USRR
but with reports of correspondents
who, either through sheer ignor-
ance or wilful malice, report such
things which are as absurd as
they are unfounded."
Mrs. Myefson's statement add-
ed that "ever since the Israeli
legation came to Moscow, we met
nothing but helpfulness and cour-
tesy from everybody whom it
was our privilege to meet. I feel
almost inclined to believe that it
is the cordial relations between
the two countries, as expressed
through relations between the
USSR and the Israeli legation,
that leads some who are dis
satisfied with this, to publish such
folly."

UPA to Spend $100,000,000
In Israel in '49 for Housing
A minimum of $100,000,000, the
major portion of which will have
to be raised by Jews in this coun-
try, must be expended this year
by United Palestine Appeal agen-
cies in Israel to cover the con-
struction costs of housing units
for the vast influx of immigants,
Judge Morris Rothenberg, acting
national chairman of the United
alestine Appeal, announced.

Among the dramatic reunions
brought about by entry of dis-
placed persons to this country
was that which occurred last
week between Hyman Krowitz of
1997 Hazelwood and his brother,
Leon, formerly of Russia, Po-
land and Germany. The two had
not seen each other in 43 years.
Leon's story resembles many
of those which have been brought
to these shores by the survivors
of Nazidom — his dispossession
from his home in Poland, his
years of mistreatment in the
concentration camps, the loss of
his wife and two children. It
might have continued in the
same vein, if an acquaintance of
Leon's had not come to America.
Although Leon's only. knowledge
Of his brother's whereabouts was
his name and the fadt that he
"has a tailor shop in Detroit, on
Gratiot," the friend was able to
make contact with the Detroiter.
FIyman turned to the Jewish
Social Service Bureau and, with
their assistance, was able to bring
his brother, and Leon's wife,
whom he met and married in a
DP camp in the U. S. zone of
Germany, to his Detroit home.
Although only in Detroit two
weeks, Leon already has found
work in his own trade, tailoring.
The Krowitz's have another
brother, who resides in Argen-
tina. A brother and sister who
had lived in' Russia also were lost
during the war.
