United States
WASHINGTON—Senator Herbert H. Lehman attacked . the

of civil libertie.:." . . . Senate hearings are soon to begin on bills to

have been introduced by Senators Lehman, Humphrey. and Ives ...
Rep. Irwin D. Davidson, N.Y., introduced a bill to take adininistra-
tion of the Refugee Relief Act from State Departrnent security
Chief McLeod and to remove all "ethnic" requirements from the
law. The bill is identical with one , introduced in the Senate by
Mr. Lehman. Rep. Davidson called the act a "fraud" . . . A recent
Soviet broadcast, reported here, urged strong internal propaganda
against religion and "non-Soviet nationalism," an approach Wash-
ington experts consider reminiscent of earlier campaigns against

Brith's Anti-Defamation League . . . N. Y. State Attorney General
Jacob J. Javits advised. the ADL he had declined to address the
educators because "State policy against: exclusion of any person.
from places of public accommodation due te race, creed • or color is
a vital law enforcement obligation to me, and I• want to do every-
thing I can .to see that it is honored, not only in letter but in
spirit." . . Israel is pioneering hi showing how to help people
,lrom underdeveloped countries to enter the atomic age, Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt told a UJA dinner here, in speaking about
her recent visit to. Israel . . . Fifty Israel firms and manufacturers,

The national executive board of 'the Union of American Hebrew

country, adopted an $840,000 budget, largest in UAHC history . •
Pointing to "new prospects" for an easing of international ten-
sions, Dr: Emanuel Neumann, ' chairman of the national executive
committee of the ZOA, declared here: "To the extent to which the
fear of Soviet aggression in the Middle East is reduced, our gov-
ernment may be expected to adopt a sounder and more reasonable
policy in that region, based .upon the underlying realities, and
help to effectuate a just an lasting peace." . .'Tribute to the
late Prof. Albert Einstein was paid here at a huge memorial meet-
ing sponsored by major. Jewish organizations. Ambassador Eban
disclosed that in -a-lconversation few days before his death
Einstein expressed deep sympathy for Israel and anxiety lest her
security be impaired by 'international policies not stemming from
O. moral premise . . • David J. Levy, attorney for Einstein's family
and for the estate executor announced that the scientist's remains
"have now been privately, finally and irrevocably disposed of, in
conformity with the wishes of Professor Einstein." The details, he
said, "should not be of public interest, for the ultimate fact is
that no physical traces are left anywhere."

Judge V. Lorne Stewart of the Toronto Family and Juvenile Court
told a parliamentary committee in testifying on a proposal for

government gives preference to immigrants .from the British Isles,
racial origin and religion of prospective immigrants play no part in
selection, accoD.ing to Federal MM. of. Citizenship and Immigra-
tion Pickersgill. He was replying to •a Conservative Party critic
who deplored the decline of British immigration into Canada. A
Liberal Party member urged accelerated immigration, declaring
