B. R. R. Says:
World Congresses Are the Rage!
The new world Jewish con-
gress recently called jointly by
the American Jewish Committee,
the Anglo-Jewish Association of
Great Britain, and the Alliance
Israelite Universelle, France, was
no sooner over than a dispatch
from Paris announced a congress
of the world ORT organization,
again with representatives from
several countries. Two years ago,
there were congresses of Jewish
physicians, Sephardic Jews, and
other gatherings of a similar
kind. World congresses have
therefore become all the rage,
and while some people are en-
ticed by them, others are fear-
fully puzzled.
Not so long ago, international
gatherings were under the ban,
and the American Jewish Com-
mittee, 'the Anglo-Jewish Associ-
ation, and other groups stormed
against them. The American Jew-
ish Yearbook carries pages of
protest against the Congress on
Minority Rights which was held
in Zurich in 1927, and again in
1936 when the World Jewish
Congress was being organized in
Geneva. These assemblies had
something to do with the demo-
cratic Jewish forces that were
then led by the American Jew-
Zionist and identi-
sh
cal groups, and that made their
European conclaves all the more
odious. Of course, the personnel
of the leadership of the American
Jewish Committee is now very
much changed, but there are still
old timers among them whose
philippics against international-
ism have been perpetuated in
their reports, and loom large in
the annals recorded in the Amer-
ican Jewish Yearbook. See es-
pecially the 28th Annual Report
of the Committee, appearing in
the Yearbook 1935-36, page 440,
wherein, under the leadership of
Judge Joseph Proskauer, the
world conference idea was most
emphatically condemned.
There is an impression Aroad
that as late as a year ago, when
members of the Conference on
Material Claims against Ger-
many were meeting in Paris, an
effort was made to call a gather-
ing of Jewish representatives
or more general purposes. It is
said that even then the American
Jewish Committee declined to
take part.
The international gathering
has now suddenly become

quite kosher, and one wonders
what should be done about all
the protests against such ef-
forts that stand out in the rec-
ords of our immediate past,
which predict the worst cal-
amities for world Jewry, if
such gatherings are held.
Most ironical of all is the
thought that when Europe had a
huge Jewish population which
faced many problems, interna-
tional gatherings were terrifying
proposals and smacked of trea-
son; now when these Jewish set-
tlements have shrunk to insig-
nificant proportions, and their
community needs are pretty well
taken care of by local agencies
and national organizations on the
spot—world congresses have be-
come the most urgent demand of
the hour.
The most unexpetted develop-
ment of all is the embarrassing
position in which British Jewry
has suddenly been placed. The
authorized and representative
body of British Jews, the Board
of Deputies, has declined to join
the conference called by the A. J.
Committee and the Anglo-Jewish
Association in the belief that
these bodies represent certain
exclusive and parochial ideas,
and that their program did not
offer anything of value to the
communities in the name of
which they tried to speak.
Things are not what they used
to be in British Jewry, and that
brings to mind a number of ar-
ticles printed in American Jew-
ish magazines within the last two
years about the decline of the
venerable Jewish community of
England. Though some of these
articles were written by British
Jewish writers like Dr. Cecil
Roth, the present writer, with
his long-time ael,liration for the
organization of British Jewry,
was disinclined to accept these
pessimistic predictions. However
this writer, too, could be wrong.

Egypt Rejects
British Protest
Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News
LONDON—Egypt has informed
the British government that the
master of the British freighter
Anshun, which was shelled in
the Straits of Akaba July 2,
had failed to heed Egyptian sig-
nals to identify himself and
state his destination, in reply
to -a British protest against the
shelling of the Anshun by
Egyptiari shore batteries.
The Egyptian reply, _sent to
the British embassy in Cairo
Monday, is understood to amount
to rejection of the British pro-.
test. The Egypitian reply is
expected to denounce what they
debate in Commons when MPs
on both sides of the House are
expected to denounce what they
call an Egyptian "outrage."
Prosperity makes friends and
adversity tries them.
GENEVA (JTA) — An appeal
to all Jewish communities and to
all Jewish fund-raising organiza-
tions to allocate more funds for
Jewish vocational training con-
ducted by the ORT was issued
by World ,ORT Union headquar-
ters.
Dr. Aron Syngalowsky, chair-
man of the world executive of
the ORT, also made public the
text of a declaration adopted at
the recent 75th anniversary ORT
Congress held here in- which
ORT organizations around the
world are urged "to increase
their efforts in the service of
Jewish work, its propagation and
its cultural and technical eleva-
tion." The declaration recalls
"with veneration and gratitude"
the founders of the ORT in 1880
and all those who had been its
leaders and workers since that
time, "among them the tens of
thousands killed by the Germans
in the years of the Hitler regime."
The declaration states that
having heard the repdrts of the
scope of ORT's accomplishments
in the last period and having
heard of the size of the current
tasks in North Africa and Israel
and other countries, the ORT
Congress established: 1. That the
ORT Union has grown to be-
come a significant Jewish na-
tional cultural institution which
occupies a very important place
in Jewish communial life; 2.
That the tens of thousands of
youths and adults, who have
since the end of the second
World War created for them-
selves an honorable existence
with the help of the trade train-
ing of ORT, have reduced the
poverty among Jews, have par-
ticipated in the upbuilding of
Israel, and have enhanced the
esteem of Jewish work; 3. That
the task of teaching Jewish
youth trades in accord with
modern scientific and technical
developments is today considered
by all Jewry regardless of re-
ligious or political tendency as
one of the most valid command-
ments of Jewish existence around
the world and of the upbuilding
of Israel.

Manischewitz Food:
Low-Calorie Menue
Calorie-counting during the
warm summer months is not the
exclusive prerogative of weight
watchers. A properly balanced,
calorie-wise meal can go a long
way towards helping keep cool,
with or without weight shedding.
Finest food for this purpose is
Manischewitz Gefilte Fish, be-
cause it is high in nourishing pro-
teins, yet low in heat-producing
calories. Gently seasoned to an
exclusive Manischewitz recipe
that enhances the lake-fresh, lus-
cious flavor of choice freshwater
fish, gefilte fish as Manischewitz
makes it contains only '70 cal-
ories per 21/2-oz. portion—just
about half the number of calories
cntained in a comparable serving
of canned salmon or tuna fish.
For snacks or for a cool, satis-
fying chef's salad, such as the
one below prepared by the •Man-
ischewitz Home Economics De-
partment, many io, ople prefer us-
ing the tiny "fishlets" ( hors
jar and less than 7 calories each)
d'oeuvres size—about 40 to the
which Manischewitz produces in
addition to its standard size ge-
filte fish patties.
The' menu given below pro-
vides a refreshing, cooling low-
calorie meal that can be prepared
in a mere matter of minutes.
