Dr. Rosmarin, Leader of
Polish Jews, Dies in Israel

TEL AVIV, (JTA)—Dr. Henry
Rosmarin, former member of the
pre-war Polish parliament and
member of the World Jewish
Congress executive, died here
Feb. 3 at tile age of 72.
A leading General Zionist, he
was active in the prewar world
Zionist movement. He was ap-
pointed the Polish Consul in Tel
Aviv in 1939 by the Polish gov-
ernment-in-exile in London. For
20 years he edited the Polish-
language Jewish newspaper
"Chwila," in Lemberg, Poland.

ment came after the Republic

the Jews of Galicia.

Eye French Cabinet Crisis
For Effect on Tunis Jews

PARIS, (JTA) —Jewish circles
here continued to watch the
latest developments in the
French governmental crisis and
its effect on the position of the
Jews in Tunisia. The future sta-
tus of Tunisia is one of the is-
sues on which the government
of Pierre Mendes-France fell.
When it appeared that An-
toine Pinay had a chance to
form a cabinet this interest was
directed primarily at talks being
held by M. Pinay and Tunisian
Premier Tahar ben Ammar in
an attempt to determine how
the future of Tunisian Jewry
would shape up under the plans
the two men were working out.
But the inability of M. Pinay to
form a Cabinet left the whole
question up in the air once
again.
The only certain things in the
situation, from the Jewish point
of view, are that any new Pre-
mier will have to make some
accommodation with respect to
the whole North African situa-
tion and that accommodation
will unquestionably play a large
role in the fate of the Jews of
Tunisia.
The Jewish point of view on
what such an accommodation
should include by way of guar-
antees to the Jews was made
clear during the Mendes-France
premiership.
Tunisia's Jews, it was said at
that time, would like to have
certain guarantees of their sta-
tus incorporated into any agree-
ment between France and Tun-
isia. Of particular interest to
them was the principle of full
equality in civil rights, without
distinction on religious grounds.
They seek equality also in the
fields of government aid to re-
ligious institutions, welfare as-
sistance, the right to hold pub-
lic office, and elections to Tun-
isian government bodies.
These same demands had been
presented to the French govern-
ment by American and other

Yugoslav Jews Issue First
Almanac in 14 Years

.

For the first time in 14 years,
Yugoslavia's Jewish community
has issued a comprehensive "Al-
manac" describing the life of
Jews in that country, according
to the World Jewish Congress'
organization department.
The handsomely-printed and
illustrated "Jewish Almanac,
1954," published by the Federa-
tion of Jewish Communities in
Yugoslavia, an affiliate of the
World Jewish Congress, is the
first such compendium to be is-
sued since 1940, when Yugosla-
via was drawn into World War
II.

Jewish leaders interested in the
fate of Tunisian Jewry. They xe-
quested that assurances to this
effect be written into the con-
ventions which had been formu-
lated by French and Tunisian
representatives as the basis for
a new regime in Tunisia. In
addition, they wanted the guar-
antees included in any projected .
Tunisian constitution.
The big question in their
minds now is whether they will
have to repeat these demands to
the head of the new French.
Cabinet, which would be the
case if he takes the position that
he is beginning entirely new
negotiations, uncommitted by
any understandings of the past
Premier.

Danes Foster Movement
Against Arming Germany

UNITED NATIONS, (AJP)—
Peter Freuchen, UN correspon-
dent for the Copenhagen daily,
Politiken, showed his colleagues
at the UN a page from a Danish
publication containing six Nazi
horror pictures depicting acts of
cold-blooded murder against
Jews.
One of the pictures shows sev-
eral naked Jewish women run-
ning bewildered within a con-
centration camp compound with
Nazi soldiers looking on sadis-
tically.
Another shows a Nazi firing
squad ready to fire on a group
of Jewish men lined up in front
of a mass of corpses.
Freuchen, who fought with
the Danish Underground against
the Nazis and who was instru
mental in saving many Jews, is
a member of a new Danish Com-
mittee Against the Re-arming of
Germany. The committee iS
headed by Landsretssagforer R.
Prytz of Copenhagen.
