Waning of Jewish Immigration to U. S.
Responsible for Local Policy Changes
NEW YORK, ( J T A ) — The
steadily declining rate of Jewish
immigration to the United States
has caused many communities
to consider making changes in
their immigrant aid programs,
it was reported by the Council
of Jewish Federations and Wel-
fare Funds (CJFWF).
The report summarizes the
results of a nationwide survey
conducted by CJFWF in collabo-
ration with United Service for
New Americans, and establishes
the following facts:
1. The continued, though re-
duced, rate of Jewish immigra-
tion means that some responsi-
bility for immigrant aid by the
community must continue. Many
of the 7,000 Jewish immigrants
expected this year will require
community aid until they be-
come self-supporting.
2. A substantial number of
long-term dependents from
previous years will continue to
rely on community assistance,
especially in the instances of
"jeopardy" cases whereby if the

immigrants became public
charges there might be danger of
deportation. Others are aged,
sick and families with no bread-
winners.
3. Immigration under the Ref-
ugee Relief Act, now in effect, is
expected to bring a total of 15,-
000 Jewish immigrants in the
next three years. This figure,
even with added regular immi-
gration, is well below' the large
numbers arriving in the peak
post-war years.
CJFWF also announces its in-
tention of holding a two-day
conference next month in Phila-
delphia to discuss integration of
hospital and Jewish community
medical services with other Jew-
ish agencies in the community.
Israel to Manufacture
One-Man Submarines
NEW YORK, N. Y., (AJP)—J.
Ben Anav, general agent for the
Abena Company of Israel, an-
nounced in New York that his
company is now completing ne-
gotiations with the General Tire
and Rubber Company for the
manufacture in Israel of four
types of Crosley cars in addition
to a one-man submarine.
The four cars, all in the Cros-
ley family, will include a station
wagon, a delivery pick-up truck,
a special-type jeep and a sport
car. The cost of each will be less
than $1,500.
While the General Tire and
Rubber Company plans to sup-
ply equipment in the amount of
$3,428,000, Israel will manufac-
ture every part of the cars ex-
cept the motor. The agreement,
when signed, will give Israel the
right to produce the General
Tire and Rubber Company one-
man submarine

State Dept. Lauds
Germany for Israel
Reparations Plans
Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to the Jewish News
WASHINGTON — The ques-
tion of continuation by Germany
of its reparations agreement
with Israel and its other pro-
grams benefiting Jewish victims
is being examined by the De-
partment of State in view of the
approach of German sover-
eignty.
This was made known Tues-
day through the publication of
an article in the Department of
State Bulletin which examined
the GerMan - Jewish issue and
pointed out that, through the
German-Israel agreement, Ger-
many "took an important step
forward in re-establishing itself
in the community of nations."
Lauding Germany for its
agreement with Israel, disposi-
tion of heirless property restitu-
tion of heirless property, restitu-
tion of indemnifiable property
and compensation to Jews who
suffered under Hitlerism, the
article raises the following ques-
tion: "As the time for German
sovereignty approaches, can the
Allies be sure that these pro-
grams will go forward without
interruption?"
Confidence is indicated in Ger-
many by the State Department
and the assurance given that
the new Germany has given its
pledge that the programs to
make amends for those perse-
cuted under national socialism
will go forward uniterrupted un-
til their completion."
Drawn up by a foreign affairs
officer in the Department's
bureau of German affairs, a
lengthy summary is published to
show the steps taken by the
Bonn government to aid Jews
and the State of Israel. The
German-Israel agreement is de-
scribed as "a milestone in Ger-
many's international relations."
Germany is praised for imple-
menting the programs charac-
terized as representing "a sig-
nificant effort on Germany's
part to re-establish itself as a
responsible member of the fam-
ily of nations."
JDC- Spurs Welfare
Activities in Africa
NEW YORK, (JTA) — Jewish
health and welfare activities in
Tunisia have now reached a
stage of development previously
unknown in North Africa, due
primarily to efforts on the part
of the Joint Distribution Com-
mittee, the New York Times re-
ported from Algiers.
Tunisians of Jewish faith, es-
timated to number 100,000, are
organized into 33 "communi-
ties," the report said. The com-
munities pip a pivotal part in
the development of social serv-
ices.
Of the Jewish welfare agencies
the Times correspondent says,
none is more important than the
Oeuvre de Secours- aux Enfants,
headed by Dr. Leon Moati of
Tunis. Its 60 doctors, working.in
12 centers, have helped reduce
the infant mortality rate by one-
third. The report lauds the JDC
also for its cultural activities,
and praises ORT for its excellent
Vocational schools.

vember.

Ye shall do no unrighteousness
in judgment: thou shalt not re-
spect the person of the poor, nor
honour the person of the
mighty: but in righteousness
shalt thou judge thy neighbor..—
