Narrates LT .1,4 Film

MELVYN DOUGLAS

Melvyn Douglas. noted screen

and stage actor, is the narrator
of "Homecoming 1949," the lat-
est United Jewish Appeal film,

nificance of the global program
being carried out with funds
raised through the nationwide
U J A $250,000,000 campaign.
Available now for use in com-
munity campaigns, the film

the building of a new life in
the young Jewish State, and the
aid to Jewish refugees in the
United States. Prints of the

3 Changes Sought
In U.S. Refugee Act

NEW YORK—( JTA )—Speak-
er . of the House Sam Rayburn
and chairman Emanuel Celler of
the House judiciary committee,
were urged by major national
and local Jewish organizations
to make three specific changes
in the bill to amend the Dis-
placed Persons Act, recently re-
ported out by the House judici-
ary committee.
The request • was made in let-
ters sent in behalf of the Ameri-
can Jewish Committee, Ameri-
can Jewish Congress, Bnai Brith,
Jewish. Labor Committe, Jewish
War Veterans, Union of Hebrew
Congregations, and 27 commu-
nity ,councils in all parts of the
country. Among the changes
urged were:

Elimination of any mortgaging of
fleFture quotas. At present H.R. 4567 would
charge DP visas against future quotas up
to 25 percent of such quotas during the
next five years and up to 50 percent
during subsequent years.

2. That the language of the so-called
Voluksdeutche provision, which allocates
50 per cent of the regular German quota
"exclusively to persons of German ethnic
origin" be changed to remove the racist
connotations of the words "German ethnic
origin."
3. That the benefits of the act should
not be extended to any special group not
defined in the Act as comprising displaced
persons.
