at Eleven O'Clock
TEL AVIV—The Poale Agudah
of Israel will not attend the
Knessio Godolo• — World Con-
gress of Orthodox Jewry—which
opened in Jerusalem Tuesday
night, the orthodox workers'
party decided at the' conclusion
of its national convention. In-
stead, Poale Agudah issued a call
for a World Labor Agudah con-
ference next year.
Explaining its stand, the labor
group said that the Agu'dah had
refused to submit to rabbinical
arbitration the dispute between
the Agudah movement and the
Israel Poale Agudah which
hinged on the latter's demands
for full independence and re-
sponsibility for its work and po-
litical position in Israel.
In a set of resolutions, the
Israel Poale Agudah appealed
to religious Jews throughout the
world to come. to Israel as the
only country in which they
could live a full life according
to the dictates .of the Torah,
called on world 'Jewry to pro-
tect Israel against all attempts
to interfere with the state's
sovereignty and urged the gov-
ernment 'to end conscription of
Women and to grant the relig-
ious movement funds to carry
on an independent educational
system.
Rabbi Eliezer Silver, president
of the Union of Orthodoi Rabbis
of the United States and Can-
ada, debarking from the plane
which brought •him here as an
American delegate to the Agu-
dab. World Congress, revealed
that he had appealed to Presi-
dent Eisenhower to use his in-
fluence with the Jordan gov-
ernment to obtain permission
for delegates to the congresS to
enter Jordan territory and visit
the Wailing Wall.
Austria Raises Ante
On ' Heirless Property;
Figure Is Still Short
VIENNA, (JTA)—The Austrian'
government has increased its
offer of a lump sum settlement
of Jewish demands for an heir-
less Jewish property settlement
from 25,000,000 schillings to 120,-
000,000, it was learned by a gov-
ernment source.
The Jewish delegation, how-
ever, still believes .that 300,000,-
000 schillings is a fair figure fo
such a settlement.
The. Austrian government is
understood to feel that the in-
creased sum should be used,
among other things, to compen-
sate Jews who had to pay special
"flight taxes" to the Nazis be-
fore being permitted to leave the
country, and to repay Jews whose
bank accounts were confiscated.
The governMent does not plan
to -indemnify victims for such
losses, because it insists that the
Nazis sent these assets and taxes
to Germany and that the Aus-
trian economy did not benefit
from them and therefore it
should not have to make them
good. However, it will grant
loans up to 10,000 schillings —
which need not be repaid — to
Jews whose apartments were
taken over by the Nazis.
The Austrian government
source, was optimistic over the
favorable atmosphere in which
current negotiations are being
conducted, and pointed to the
agreement on benefits to former
Austrian Jews who are now re-
siding abroad as one evidence
of progress. It is believed that
within the next few days it will
become evident whether the par-
ties can reach a compromise on
the lump sum settlement.
For, behold, in those days, and
in that time, when I will bring
back the captivity of Judah and
Jerusalem, I will gather all the
nations, and I will enter into
judgment with them for My peo-
ple and for My heritage Israel,
whom they have scattered among
the nations, and diirided My land.
