British Leader Hopeful over Fate
of Jews in North African Nations

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS—Friday,

Direct JTA Teletype Wire
To The Jewish News

LONDON — Hopes that the
situation of the Jews in North
Africa "will be somewhat dif-
ferent than that of the Jews
in Arab countries" was ex-
pressed here Tuesday by R. N.
Carvalho, president of the
Anglo-Jewish Association. Car-
valho reviewed the pattern of
present-day Jewish life in
North Africa at a meeting of
the association's council.
Pointing out that North
African Jewry has a history of
centuries during which "Jews
gained positions of respect
and authority," Carvalho re-
ported that the Moroccan gov-
ernment has now withdrawn
permission granted earlier for
Jewish emigration to Israel.
Most of Morocco's 200,000
Jews, he said, are "desperately

Urge U.S. to Hike
Emigrant Quota

NEW YORK (JTA) — New
federal legislation permitting
an increase of immigration of
refugees into the United States
by 20,000, and increasing Am-
erican refugee relief expendi-
tures by $10,000,000 above the
funds already sought by Presi-
dent Eisenhower. were re-
quested by the United States
Committee for Refugees.
The committee, headed by
the Very Rev. Francis B.
Sayre, Jr., dean of the Cathed-
ral at Washington, D.C., is the
American group formed for
this country's participation in
World Refugee Year.
The special period for alert-
ing the world to the need for
definitive solutions of all
refugee problems has been set
up by the United Nations, and
will be launched officially
July 1.
The U.S. Committee called
for the additional $10,000,000
appropriations above the $18,-
500,000 for refugee relief
already requested in President
Eisenhower's budget message.
In addition to more money
and to raising the immigration
quota by 20,000, the committee
is advocating also the alloca-
tion of additional surplus com-
modities from the U.S. toward
refugee relief, and the raising,
of $20,000,000 for refugee re-
lief programs by private Am-
erican agencies.

poor, and their future is
bleak." Jewish welfare or-
ganizations are doing "wonder-
ful work" there, he stated,
"but it is almost a bottomless
pit. The Jews, if they want to
join their brethren in Israel,
should be allowed to go there,"
the leader said.
Tunisia and Libya, he re-
ported, are "following the pat-
tern of newly-independent
North African countries. In
both these countries, existing
Jewish community organiza-
tions have been abandoned,
and some sort of communal
committees have been set up
by the governments."
• Carvalho reported that Tuni-
sia and Libya insist that ma-
terial help brought for Jews
in those countries be dis-
tributed to non-Jews also, on
the grounds that, otherwise,
Jews would only "continue to
be regarded as different from
the general community.
"Such an attitude," said Car-
valho, "is either liberalism
gone mad, or a connivance at
increasing the hardships of the
Jews in those countries.
The countries, he said, should
be warned that they are fan-
ning prejudice and hatred,
which already exists and which
could impede their future as
free and democratic states.
Carvalho appealed to the
governments of Tunisia and
Libya to reconsider their poli-
cies carefully in regard to their
Jewish citizens.

Jewish Spokesmen Back
French Stand on Asylum

UNITED NATIONS (JTA)-
Israel's Attorney General, Haim
Cohn, and Dr. Isaac Lewin,
spokesmen here for the World
Organization of Agudath Israel,
staunchly endorsed a French
proposal affirming United Na-
tions' recognition of the right
of asylum as a basic human
right. Both spoke before the UN
Commission on Human Rights,
currently in session here.

Boost Yiddish Culture,
Conference Urges

NEW YORK (JTA)—A call
to Jews in democratic coun-
tries, especially in the United
States and Latin America, to
strengthen Yiddish culture by
intensifying Jewish education,
was issued at the opening of
the second world conference
of the Yiddish Cultural Con-
gress, at Hunter College.
More than 2,000 persons at-
tended the gathering, which
was addressed by delegates
from various countries.
The speakers emphasized
that, while Hebrew schools are
provided in some countries
with teachers by the Jewish
Agency, Yiddish schools ex-
perience a lack of teachers.
This was especially emphasized
by Jacob Botoshansky, dele-
gate from Argentina, who
spoke on the situation of Yid-
dish culture in Latin American
countries.
Other speakers from Argen-
tina included Abraham Zack
and Jonah Gorodeisky, who
appealed to the New York cul-
tural institutions to send
teachers for the Yiddish schools
in Latin America. The opening
session was presided by Jacob
Pat, leader of the Yiddish Cul-
tural Congress.

Adolph Kiesler of Denver,
prominently identified with
the State of Israel Bond cam-
paign since its inception and
a nationally-known philanthro-
pist, this week presented
$2,500 in Israel Development
Bonds to Loretto Heights Col-
lege, a leading Catholic insti-
tution in Colorado. The Israel
Bonds were accepted by Sister
Frances Marie, president of
the college, for the institu-
tion's new dormitory building
fund.

U.S., French Friendship Reported by Mrs. Meir

TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Mrs.
Golda Meir, Israel's Foreign
Minister, found "understanding
for Israel" among officials in
the United States Department
of State, as well as among other
leading Americans.
Mrs. Meir made this state-
ment here upon her return from
a month's visit to the United
States, and a brief stop in
France.
As far as France is con-
cerned, she said, she found in
the present government in Paris
"the same warm and friendly"
attitude toward Israel charac-
teristic of the former French
government, and the same

"keen desire" for cooperation
with Israel.

The Foreign Minister de-
clared that U.S. Jewry has
once more proved its "enthusi-
asm for Israel and its willing-
ness to help solve any problem
with which Israel is faced."
