American Jews Must
Help Eastern Migration
Dr. Schwartz Warns

MIAMI, (JTA) — "Tens of
thousands of Jews, the 'now or
never' emigrants of 1950, may
soon be trapped forever in East-
ern Europe and the Near East
unless the American Jewish
community provides immediate
help to move them to Israel,"
Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, Euro-
pean director of the Joint Distri-
bution Committee, warned dele-
gates and guests at the South
East Regional Conference spon-
sored by the JDC and United
Service, for New Americans.
Arthur Greenleigh, executive
director of USNA, said "the
American Jewish community
has the responsibility to stand
squarely behind the Jewish
newcomers during the five-year
period until they become Ameri-
can citizens."
" The delegates adopted a reso-
lution pledging increased sup-
port of the United Jewish\ Ap-
peal, and—in line with decisions
reached at the National Plan-
ning Conference held in Wash-
ington last week-nd — to use
their best efforts within their
home communities to make
available to the UJA a minimum
of $50,000,000 before the year's
end.
They also "fully and whole-
heartedly" endorsed the decision
of the National Planning Con-
ference to launch 1951 UJA
campaigns at the earliest pos-
sible date.

,623 immigrants from Shang-
hai arrived in Haifa aboard the
SS Negba on Noy. 12, bringing
• to 5,000 the number of Jews who
have come from China since

December 1948.

Sponsoring Shetzer Memorial

NEW YORK — Four scholar-
ships in memory of the late Dr.
Abraham Davidson of Washing-
ton, N. J., have been establish-
ed by the Zionist Organization
of America through its New Jer-
sey Region, under the ZOA pro-
gram of Israel-American stu-
dent exchanges, it was an-
nounced by Benjamin G. Brow-
dy, ZOA President.
These one-year Davidson
scholarships, in the amount of
$1,500 each, have been made
possible through a bequest to
the organization by Dr. David-
son, a lifelong Zionist and bene-
factor of all major efforts for
the rebuilding of Zion. T h e
scholarships were assigned to
the New Jersey Region, headed
by Benjamin E. Gordon, by vir-
tue of Dr. Davidson's Zionist ac-
tivity in that area.
It is planned to award the
scholarships on the basis of two
for qualified Israelis who will
study at leading American edu-
cational institutions, preferably
in New Jersey, and two for New
Jersey students to pursue ad-
vanced studies in Israel.

Reveal Discrimination
Against Accountants

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Dis-
crimination against young Jew-
ish accountants is so great that
it is almost impossible for them
to get jobs except in accounting
firms managed by Jews, it is
brought out in an article in the
December issue of National Jew-
ish Monthly by Dr. Max F. Baer,
national director of the Bnai
Brith Vocational Service Bureau.
Dr. Baer writes that his sur-
vey revealed 95 percent of the
Jews in those classes who are
today employed by firms hiring
accountants, w or k for firms
with all or partial Jewish man-
agement. Eighty percent work
for firms of all-Jewish manage-
ment; 15 percent for firms of
"mixed" management; and only
5 percent for non-Jewish firms.

mittee of the Council for the

terests of Jews from Germany.
