. bers of the League of Jewish
Women's Organizations gathered

. , Crum, noted author and diplo-
mat. Mr. Crum unfolded many
of the . problems facing Israel,

- velopment.
He urged that Israel should
not be underestimated, that
the major funds should be
supported and that priority
should be given the struggling
Jewish state. He pleaded that
communities should n o t go
overboard in increasing allo-
cations to local causes and
that every effort should be
ma de that Israel's income
should not diminish.
He urged support of the Is-
rael bond drive and praised
Hadassah and the Jewish Na-
tional Fund for their vision in
providing health facilities for
Arabs as well as Jews and in
redeeming the land of Israel.

Newsprint Shortage
Menaces Newspapers,
Knesset Is Warned
acute shortage of newsprint in
Israel which threatens to close
down all newspapers in the
country was the subject of a
short, but acrimonious, debate in
Parliament.
Progressive deputy Dr. Herb-
ert Foerder and General Zionist
M. Flesh attacked Dov Joseph,
Minister of Trade and Industry,
holding him responsible for the
situation because he has not
granted foreign currency alloca-
tions for the importation of
newsprint. In defense of his
position, Dr. Joseph insisted that
the press in Israel had always
been free, but asserted that the
publication of 21 daily news-
papers using 207 tons of news-
print monthly was too much for
the Israel economy.
He pledged, however, that
from the end of this month
more paper would be available.
He revealed that $50,000 had al-
ready been set aside for pur-
chase of paper and another $50,-
000 would be allocated shortly.

the fine arts and the dance.
Instruction at Brandeis is also
offered in the schools of science,
social science and the humani-

A Street Named Cantor
Israel Chief Rabbi
Denies Bias to Reform
NEW YORK, (AJP)—Religion
in Israel is on the increase, but
there is no trend toward a lib-
eral Judaism or counterpart to
the 'Reform movement, Rabbi
Isar Jehuda Unterman, Chief
Rabbi of Tel Aviv, said here on
the eve of his return to the
Jewish State.
Concluding a tour of the United
States on behalf of the $500,000,-
000 Israel bond campaign, Rabbi
Unterman flatly refuted charges
that bias was practiced in Israel
against Reform Jews.
"There is just no room for a
Reform Judaism in Israel," the'
rabbi said. "In meeting with Re-
form rabbis during_my tour I
have stressed again and again
that there is no basis in fact to
accusations of bias against Re-
form Jews.
"If a Reform rabbi," he said,
"is able to persuade, let us say,
200 of his members to go to Is-
rael and designate him as their
rabbi, that is absolutely all right.
But they connot find their mem-
bers among the Orthodoxy be-
cause Reform rabbis will not be
accepted. For one thing, they
lack the necessary rabbinical
knowledge."
Rabbi Unterman labeled as
wholely untrue" expressions by
the American Council for Jud-
aism that the Israel bond drive
might injure relations between
Jews and non-Jews in the U.S.
His statement drew a rapid
"propaganda" counter - charge
from Rabbi Elmer Berger, na-
tional director of the Council
of Judaism.
Israeli Seamen Acquitted
TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Thirteen
of 30 merchant seamen on trial
in Haifa on charges of assault-
ing policemen during the mer-
chant seamen's strike, were ac-

dence against them.
