TEL AVIV — The Israel gov-
ernment this week began a
manpower survey designed to
pr ovide specific information
concerning the distribution and
occupation of some 450,000 men
employed in Israel and Israel
industries in various parts of
the world.
Registration forms have been
sent to every enterprise in the
country which employs one or
more men. It is estimated that
between 70,000 and 80,000 en-
terprises — including collective
settlements — will return the
completed forms within t h e
statutory one week period.
The census is being conduct-
ed by the Labor Board, which is
composed of representatives of
various government depart-
ments and the deputy chief of
staff of the Army, and is head-
ed by Zeev Sherf.
U.S. Backs Shuster,
Called Anti-Semite
By Jewish Congress
NEW YOR K—(WJA)--The
deputy director of the office of
public affairs of the U. S. High
Commissioner, has responded to
representations made by the
World Jewish Congress in con-
nection with the r.ppointment of
Dr. George N. Shuster of Hunt-
er College, New York, as U. S.
Land Commissioner for Bavaria.
"On the basis of all the in-
formation available to us and
the State Department," the U.
S. High Commissioner's Office
states, "we believe that Dr. Shu-
ster is a firm democrat and an-
ti-Nazi and an excellent choice
for U. S. Land Commissioner for
.Bavaria . . ."
A WJC state-
ment points out
that Dr. Shu-
ster published a
series of books
on Germany be-
tween 1932 and
1944. which
lustrate a clear-"
1 y anti-Jewish
attitude. In a
book on Hitler,.
published in
1 9 3 4. he de-
Shuster
scribed Hitler as "a politician
of whom it might be said that
if he had not existed, it would
be necessary to invent him." As
to persecutions, Dr. Shuster
states in the same publication
that "no doubt too much has
been written about 'atrocities' . .
As individual crimes they are
not more serious than many in-
cidents which have occurred in
the U.S. during the time of war
hysteria, Ku Klux Klan excite-
ment, labor trouble or racke-
teering . . The trouble with
Jew-baiting in Northern Europe
(or in the, U.S.) is its natural-
ness. .It is the satisfaction of
the deep-rooted animal crav-
ing."
States the Deputy Director of
the U. S. High Commissioner's
Office: "We feel that it is pos-
sible to damn any man by tak-
ing excerpts from what he has
said or written. I am certain
that the future will prove that
Dr. Shuster will be an excellent
Land CommissiOner."
Housewives Turn
To Zion Frozen Meats
"Meat course in a minute . . .
that's Zion Ko sh er Frozen
Meats," says thousands of De-
troit housewives who are buying
these new and convenient Kosh-
er meats.
Five different fresh-frozen
products, all by the makers of
nationally famous Zion Kosher
Delicatessen, include frozen beef
crisp, beef steak, veal chops,
chopped beef and frozen frank-
furters.
All are pure beef, government-
inspected, slaughtered, Kosher-
ed and fresh-frozen under
strictest rabbinical supervision.
No defrosting is necessary.
Zion Kosher Frozen Meats are
distributed throughout the De-
troit area by the City Smoked
Fish Co., 1348 Napoleon St., and
are featured at neighborhood
frozen food dealers.
The task of the board, Sherf
told newsmen, is to assign in-
dividual duties to each man in
the event of an emergency. The
body will centralize all data on
available and reserve manpower
and on military and civilian
manpower needs.
