NEW YORK (JTA) Allega-
tions that North African Jewish
children from religious homes
have been placed in non-reli-
gious settlements, institutions and
schools in Israel by Youth Ali-
yah were categorically denied by
Berl Locker, co-chairman of the
Jewish Agency executive.
He described the allegations as
"baseless and of questionable
origin" and attributed respon-
sibility for most of the charges
to a Mr. Elmaleh, a North Afri-
can communal worker.
Locker declared that "Youth
Aliyah's challenge to those mak-
ing the allegation to cite the
case of a single child from a
religious home placed in a non-
religious , settlement has re-
mained unanswered."
He said it was "true, of course,
that some people insist that all
children receive. a particular
type of religious education. How-
ever, their parents are the best
judges, and we have at no time
placed or kept a child in any

institution contrary to the wishes
of its parents."
He declared that Elmaleh's
charges have been "unqualifiedly
repudiated by the Committee for
Religious Youth. Aliyah of the
World Mizra chi and Hapoel
Hathizrachi organizations" and
noted that there has been "from
the very beginning, a close work-
ing relationship between this
committee and the Youth Aliyah
although the Committee has
raised questions about youth in-
stitutions labeled as 'traditional'
and has insisted that all children
be placed in institutions labeled ,
as 'religious.'
Reports that difficulties had
been encountered in enrolling
immigrant children into religious
educational institutions were de-.
scribed- as "wholly baseless" by
Prof. Ben Zion Dinur, Israel
Minister for Education and Cul-
ture.
