With the formal opening of
the 1958 Allied Jewish Cam-
paign set for 8:15 p.m. Tuesday,
March 25;' at Temple Beth El,
Max M. Fisher, 1958 Allied
Jewish Campaign chairman, has
announced the names of the
chairmen of t h e campaign's
seven trade and professional di-
viSions.
The opening campaign
meeting will be addressed by
Brig. Gen. Dan Tolkowsky,
commander of Israel Air
Force. The guest entertainer
that evening will be Betya
Ostrowski, dramatic star of
the Israel Ohel National Thea-
ter and a noted singer. Fisher
will preside and Dr. Richard
Hertz will greet the gather-
ing.
Three of the seven campaign
divisions, including the mechan-
ical trades division, 1957 winner
of the Detroit Service Group
trophy for the greatest percen-
tage of increase over the previ-
ous year, have retained their
1957 leadership.
Robert Trepeck, who accepted
the Service Group cup in behalf
of the Mechanical Trades Divi-
sion last year, is again division
chairman. Sidney J. Bertin and
Maurice Sandler will again head
the services division. Paul H.
Handleman and Abraham Satov-
sky are professional division
Chairmen for the second year.
The food division, a close run-
ner-up to the mechanical trades
division in 1957, will again have
the services of Merwin K. Gros-
berg as chairman, but this year
he shares the post with Jules
Mehler, who was an advisory
committee member last year.
Harold A. Robinson, furniture
section chairman, and Max J.
Pincus, a division vice-chairman

STOCKHOLM—Maj. Gen. C. C. von Horn, newly appointed
Chief of Staff of the United Nations Truce Supervision Organi-
zation, who will leave March 19 for his new headquarters in
Jerusalem, stressed that he "knows nothing about politics" but
pledged to do his best in the politically complex job of imple-
menting the uneasy armistice agreements in Palestine .. .
BERLIN — Neo-Nazism and new manifestations of anti-
Semitism in West Germany were condemned here by speakers
at a mass meeting commemorating the Reichstag fire of 25 years
ago set by the Nazis, which was used by Hitler as an excuse to
intensify persecution of political opponents and Jews . . . There
is no reason to fear that restitution payments by Germany to
victims of the Nazi regime will endanger the stability of the
deutschemark, Bonn France Minister Franz Etzel told a press
conference. Several months ago, Justice Minister Fritz Schaffer,
Herr Etzel's predecessor in the finance post, charged that com-
pensation to Jewish victims of Nazism would top $6,000,000,000
and threaten the stability of the nation's currency . . . The extent
to which well known former Nazis are being placed in high posts
of the West Germany Republic is "really frightful," Heinz Galin-
ski, president of the Jewish commuity of Berlin, declared in an
interview here, and charged that in response to neo-Nazi devel-
opments, even the Social Democratic Party does not, always take
a strong enough stand.
GENEVA—Switzerland has accepted as West German Am-
bassador Ernest Gunther Mohr, the target of charges of involve-
ment in the Nazi persecution of Jews. Press revelation of plans
to appoint Mohr touched off a controversy in which Swiss news-
papers charged that as Deputy Chief of Missions in Holland for
the German Reich during Hitler's period, Mohr participated in
the mass deportations of Dutch Jews. The Bonn Foreign office
denied the charges.
BONN—The East German edition of a volume describing
the horrors of the Auschwitz concentration camp by two former
inmates has been confiscated by the authorities and the books
were ordered seized because a foreword by Hermann Langbein,
head of a group of Auschwitz survivors, made reference to the
existence of concentration camps today in "certain countries."
The book. "The Death Factory," was written by Ota Kraus and
Erich Kilka and published originally in Czechoslovakia.
ROME—Italian Libera news agency reports that rectors of
the Carmelite Order, headed by Superior General Father Anas-
tasio di san Rosario, appealed to the Vatican to recognize the
State of Israel . • . Osservatore Romano, official Vatican organ,
commenting on a Rome newspaper's charge that a- priest had

last year, will share the chair-
manship of the mercantile divi-
sion.
A. Alfred Taubman, who was
co-chairman of the carpenters
section of the real. estate and
building section, will be 1958
division chairman.
The arts and crafts division
will be headed by Harvey H.
Willens, a division vice-chair-
man in 1957.
"The 1958 Campaign is past
the $2,000,000 mark as we pre-
pare for our formal opening,"
Fisher said, "and with our divi-
sion chairmen, all experienced
campaign leaders, added to our
present leadership, we cannot
fail to achieve our minimum
goal of $6,200,000.
"A growing community at
home must have increased sup-
port. Unless additional sums are
made available for the hospital,
home for aged, Hebrew schools
and other essential services,
many needy persons will have

to be turned away. This we can,
not allow to happen," Fisher
said.
"The people of Israel, sur-
rounded by nations determined
to destroy their state and forced
to spend a great deal on their
defense and security, cannot be
expected to assume a greater
share of the burden involved
in the absorption of the immi-
grants. We must continue and
intensify our assistance through
the United Jewish App ea 1,
which is marking its 20th year
of rescuing Jews from untenable
situations overseas.
"On the national scene, essen-
tial agencies engaged in defend-
ing our status and in maintain-
ing the morale of the armed
forces must be supported more
adequately.
"I ask the assistance of every
member of our community in
making the 1958 Allied Jewish
Campaign the greatest in De-
troit's history," said Fisher.

JERUSALEM — A Mapai proposal for- a government fort-
nightly magazine for Israel's radio listeners, supported by Prime
Minister Ben-Gurion, was beaten in a Knesset debate when
all of Mapai's coalition partners won a demand for the right to
vote against the measure. . .. Falastin, the leading Arab daily
newspaper published in the Jordanian part of Jerusalem, stated
this week that "all the damage done to Israel by Arab economic
warfare will be cancelled by Israel's progress in atomic research."
.. . The Israel Ministry of the Interior moved to prevent the
participation of overseas visitors in demonstrations by asking
the police to provide names of nationals involved in such demon-
strations . . . President and Mrs. Itzhak Ben-Zvi have been invited
by the government of Belgium to visit the Brussels International
Fair and they expect to visit Belgium during the summer.

TEL AVIV.—Armed Syrians,
accompanying a flock of sheep,
penetrated Israel Tuesday near
the Dan settlement in Upper
Galilee and opened fire on Is-
rael guards who approached to
investigate.
United Nations observers who
left the nearby UN post to in-
vestigate the shooting were
fired upon from Syrian gun-
posts across the border. Syrian
fire was not returned and no
casualties were reported.
