larly French Morocco. The Coun-
cil of the international agency

U.S. to Continue Its
Surplus Food Study

Secretary of Agriculture Ezra
Taft Benson declared last Sunday
that the United States Govern-
ment will continue to study ways
and means by which farm sur-
pluses can be brought in increas-
ing measure to the peoples of the
world. He added that the present
distribution of such surpluses
has helped to stimulate the _hope
for peace, voicing his belief that
"world peace is now closer than
it has been for a generation."
However, he coupled his op-
timism with a warning that "good
harvests may some time do us
more harm than poor ones; if,
in time of plenty, we forget to
share" and "if we cease to be
vigilant and strong."
Secretary Benson was a speak-
er on the launching of a new
series of radio programs, en-
titled "The Bible In Action,"
which is being broadcast over
station WNEW, New- York, with
the cc-operation of the American
Zionist Council. Others on the
opening program which was dedi-
cated .to the Succothdlarvest Fes-
tival were Mr. Abba Eban, Israel
Ambassador to the United States
and head of Israel's delegation
to the United Nations; Rabbi Ir-
ving Miller, Chairman of the
American Zionist Council and
noted spiritual leader, who will
act as moderator on all the pro-
grams in tl< weekly series; and
Raymond Massey, who delivered
a BibliCal reading appropriate to
the Harvest Festival of Succoth
which is now being observed by
Jews throughout the world.

British Deputies Report
Decline of Anti-Semitism

LONDON(JTA)—The past year
has been one of "comparative
calm" in the sphere of anti-
Semitism and Fascism in Britain,
the annual report of the Board
of Deputies of British Jews states.
The- Board says that Sir Os-
wald Mosley's Union Movement
has failed to stage a comeback
and the open-air meetings of the
Fascists have been poorly at-
tended. The Board insists that
the chief reason for this poor at-
tendance is the fact that Jews
have generally accepted its advice
to stay away from the rallies and
not to furnish the Fascists with
publicity.
At the same time, the report
notes that the Board has protest-
ed to the London County Coun-
cil against its granting the Union
Movement and similar groups
the use of the schools for meet-
ings for'"the propagation of doc-
trines which aim at overthrow-
ing democracy."
The report says that there still
exist—though with a very limit-
ed Arculation and quite unknown
to the majority of the English
people—"several publications of
a viciously anti-Semitic charac-
ter" which base their policy on
anti-Communism, anti-American-
ism and on the "hoary fiction
that the Jew is the power behind
all of the world's trouble." •
It calls on the Jewish commu-
nity to remain on its guard be-
cause the very fact that financing
can still be found for. such pub-
lications is "lamentable evidence
of ingrained racial hatred."
The report also reveals that the
Board's--education committee con-
ferred with a publisher of a
schoolgirl's book which contained
derogatory passages about Jews.
The publisher agreed to halt fur-
ther sales of the book, to accept
for return a large order shipped
to one of the best known lending
libraries in Britain and to rewrite
the offending passages for future
editions.

Jewish Backing of Nationalists
Greeted by Moroccan Leader
TUNIS (JTA)—High praise for
the support given by Tunisian
Jews to the Tunisian nationalist
movement was sounded by Habib
Bourguiba, leader of t h e Neo-
Destour (nationalist) party in an
address to a meeting at Sfax.
He singled out Andre Barouch,
director of the newspaper, "Petit
Matin," whose activities, Bour-
guiba said, had consolidated
Jewish-Moslem solidarity.
"In this country," the national-
ist leader said, "Jews are Tuni-
sians in exactly the same way
as Moslems are."
