Loses Its Tax Exemption
WASHINGTON, (JTA) — Fed-
eral tax exemption has been re-
voked from BrOadcasts, Inc., the
propaganda organization of Up-
town Close, a radio commenta-
tor who has been accused of
anti-Semitism. Rep. Abraham J.
Multer of New York has been
informed by the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue that Close's
preferential status - has been
terminated.
Close had been enjoying an
exemption for his "Broadcasts,
Inc.," because of its designation
as an educational institution
purporting to disseminate ob-
jective information on current
events.

Leo Majzels Elected

Of Junior Division
Jewish DP Problem Liberal Speakers Are Attacked
Nearing Solution Santa Monica Community in Arms
Over Newspaper's Commie Charge
NEW YORK, (JTA) — The
Leo Majzels,‘area chairman of Jewish displaced problem, a
the 1951 Allied Jewish Cam- pressing issue a few years ago,
paign for the Junior Division, -is now nearing solution, accord-
ing to a study published by the
Institute of Jewish Affairs of the
World Jewish Congress.
Tracing the refugee situation
from the liberation of the con-
centration camp victims in the
last days of World War II, the
study discloses that the number
of DPs in camps in Western
Germany, Austria and Italy has
dwindled from 250,000 to 25,000.
The last camp in the British
zone of Germany has been
closed, while the number of
camps in the U.S. zone has
dropped to four.
The report, written by Kurt
R. Grossman, points out that
the problem has not yet been
completely solved. Thousands of
DPs are awaiting the opportun-
jate
ity to emigrate. The DP popula-

Born in Vienna, Leo grew up
in the world Hitler had created.
Following his release from a
concentration camp, he escaped
to England, and in 1940 came to
the U.S. In 1942, he was induct-
ed into the Army, where he
served as a flight engineer. His
training stood him in good stead
when he later enlisted in the
Israeli Air Force in 1949, to help
make Israel a free nation.
UN Subcommission
Takes Bias Action
UNITED NA TIO NS, N. Y.,
(JTA)—The United Nations Sub-
commission on the Prevention of
Discrimination and Protection
of Minorities mt.de the follow-
ing suggestions to its parent
body, the Economic and Social
Council:
1. That the Council recom-
mend to all UN members that
they cooperate in any treaty to
which they become parties to
safeguard against discrimina-
tion.
2. That the Council recom-
mend that in treaties establish-
ing new states or new boundaries
between states special attention
should be paid to the protec-
tion of any minority which may
be created thereby.
3. That the Council arrange
for the preparation of an in-
ternational convention for the
protection of minorities.
Speaking for the Consultative
Council of Jewish Organizations,
Moses Moskowitz reaffirmed his
organization's belief in the
"symbolic and practical im-
portance of the Subcommission.
Bernard Bernstein, of the Co-
ordinating Board of Jewish Or-
ganizations, said it seemed now
that much more time would
elapse before the Covenant on
Human Rights would operate,
and he therefore underscored
the urgent necessity for imme-
diate action by the General As-
sembly to create conditions in
yhich human rights could
flourish. Accordingly, his organi-
zation proposed that the Assem-
bly adopt certain resolutions.

SANTA MONICA, Cal., (JTA)
—Communal defense agencies on
the West Coast swept into ac-
tion to secure publication of a
retraction by the Santa Monica
Evening Outlook of an anti-
Semitic attack published by that
paper against the Santa Monica
Jewish community.
The paper, in an editorial at-
tack on the Santa Monica Town
Hall, conducted by the Jewish
Community Center at the Bay
Cities, charged that the forum
had become a platform for the
"Left-Wing" and that "there is
no one on the program discus-
sing public affairs who is not de-
cidedly hostile to the American
'system of free enterprise." It
added that "the Jewish people
who started Town Hall include
a majority of solid businessmen
who should believe in our sys-
tem."
The speakers to whom the
paper took exception are United
States Senator Hubert Hum-
phrey who "speaks for the Left
Wing of the Democratic Party
and for nothing else;" Bishop G.
Bromley Oxnam of the Metho-
dist Church, "a fellow-traveling
pinko who has been identified
with numerous Communists
fronts and is a better socialist
than a churchman;" - Dr. Max
Lerner, "a leading exponent of
Socialism," and Dr. Robert
Hutchins, "a leading pacifist."
