Catholic Statement
on Humane Slaughter
The JeWish community of Al-
geria has not been asked to
identify itself with the new mil-
itary-Gaullist regime in that
North African territory, it was
learned from a reliable source
who has just returned to Paris
from Algiers. •
The failure to invite the Al-
gerian Jews to make a public
statement of their views is seen
as significant here. in view of

and communities in Algeria
have been asked to state their
views. It is interpreted as a sign
that the new regime considers
the Jews neither for nor against
the military. This fits into the
generally accepted thought here

testified against the proposed

Committee on Agriculture and

adoption would endanger she--

of slaughter.

of the bill, read into the record
