ORT Congress Open's in Geneva;

Marks 75th Anniversary of Founding

GENEVA, (JTA) — With dele-
gates in attendance from 27
countries, and messages of
greeting from prominent world
leaders, including President Eis-
enhower and President Itzhak
Ben Zvi of Israel, the World
ORT Union opened its world
congress here marking the 75th
anniversary of . its founding.
New officers named are Sen.
Herbert Lehman, honorary pres-
ident; Prof. William Haber,
president of the central council;
and Dr. Aron Syngalowski, pres-
ident of the executive commit-
tee.
In addition, there are six vice-
presidents, including Armand
Brunschwig, of Geneva; Renzo
Levi, of Rome; Abel Shaban, of
Johannesburg; J. Shapiro, of Tel
Aviv; Mrs. L. Kaphan, of New
York; and M. J. Hochman, also
of New York.
Paying tribute to ORT's work
in the field of rehabilitation as
an "inspiring job,' President
Eisenhower told the congress in
his message: "The schools, vo-
cational centers and training
workshops which the ORT spon-
sors among the free nations of
the world contribute to - the so-
cial and economic well-being of
these nations.
"Your • congress, while focus-
ing attention upon the achieve-
ments of an exceptionally fine
organization which has seen 75
years of devoted service to hu-
manity, testifies to the fact that
free men _can voluntarily over-
come differences of custom, race
and nationality to work together
for a good cause." -
Highlights of the opening
session, held in the historic.

Electoral Palace here, were
addresses by Dr. Aron Syngal-
owski, chairman of the,ORT
world executive committee,
and * David Morse, director-

general of the International
Labor Office, a United Nations
specialized agency that has its
world headquarters here.

The ILO and ORT have "much
in common," Morse declared,
both organizations having ex-
panded the scale and scope of
their work in recent years. He
pledged ILO's continuing sup-
port to the work of ORT.
Dr. Syngalowski; outlining the
history of ORT from its begin-
nings in Czarist Russia, pointed
out that ORT has never "mixed
politics" with its work, its "only
aim being to increase the num-
ber of qualified workers, im-
prove the cultural level of the
worker and contribute to the re-
birth and reconstruction of the
world on a peaceful basis."
In summarizing ORT's more
recent accomplishments, Dr.
Syngalowski paid special trib-
ute to the w o r k achieved by
the organization in the United
States. He had particular praise
for the extension of ORT's work
to North African countries and
to Iran, as well as the expan-
sion of its activities in Israel.
ORT has "taken root in the
soil" of many countries in the
last six years, Dr. Syngalowski
reported. Among the "tests" met
by ORT in the last half decade,
he declared, was the need to
shift its activities elsewhere af-
ter compulsory cessation of its
activities in countries behind
the Iron Curtain.
In the last six years, the ORT
leader reported, more than 80,-
000 students have passed
through the organization's
schools. Adults had made up 75
per cent of the students in 1949,
he said, while last year the
adults numbered only 25 per
cent.

The North African ORT
program, it was reported to
Moroccan and Tunisian dele-
gates, will be increased from
the present $749,000 a year to
more than $1,000,000 annually.
The new program calls for es-
tablishment of new ORT cen-
ters, in cooperation with local
authorities, in Sefrou, Fez,
Marrakesch and possibly Mag-
adore.

J. J. Bowers, addressing the
delegates in behalf of the United
Nations Educational Scientific
and C u l t u r al Organization,
lauded ORT'S work and declared
that "those who have organized
ORT training centers might
perhaps help the acute shortage
among technically trained staffs
in underdeveloped areas."
Greetings were read by Dr.
Syngalowski from many famOus
leaders, including m e s s ages
from Sen. Herbert H. Lehman,
Edward M. M. Warburg, Israel
Premier Moshe Sharett and
Minister of Labor Golda Myer-
son.
A special award from the
American ORT organization was
presented at the opening ses-
sion to Dr. Syngalowski.
The next ORT congress will
be held in Jerusalem in 1959_
