prevent those "who once
covered the world with blood,
from again threatening the
peace."
The resolution was adopted
at the closing session of the
two-day parley, held in the
Palazzo Venezia, once Benito
Mussolini's residence. It was
attended b' delegates of 13
countries.
The delegates condemned the
recent swastika epidemic, which
they blamed on neo-Nazi ele-
ments in West Germany, and
warned that Nazi anti-Semitic
and racist propaganda "consti-
tutes a threat to all peace-lov-
ing peoples."
T h e conference expressed
concern at the extent of the
swastika outbreaks in countries
where organizations with Nazi
tendencies exist and have been
strengthened by collaboration
with Hitlerite refugees.
One session was enlivened by
a clash between Guido Lopez,
representative of the Milan
Jewish Community, and Vassily
Kozlov, a member of the five-
man delegation from the Soviet

tor of the Jewish Community
Council, summarized actions
that were taken locally in pro-
test against the Navy's use of
the so-called "Haifa Clause,"
which barred contracts with
any carriers which had done
business with Israel.
At the request of the Coun-
cil, the Navy's practice was
made the subject of an inquiry
by several members of the
Michigan Congressional delega-
tion. Representatives Broom-
field, Cederberg, Dingell, Grif-
fiths, Lesinski, O'Hare and Ra-
baut communicated with the
Navy Department. The Military
Sea Transportation Service, the
arm of the Navy responsible
for the contracts, initially de-
nied that the controversial
"to give
clause was adopted
support to any political boy-
cott."
In a subsequent memoran-
dum, the Navy acknowledged
mounting public criticism and
said it will discontinue its use.
Joffe noted that Senator Hart
had inserted in the Congres-
sional Record an editorial from
Union, when the latter con- the Detroit News which criti-
strued' remarks by the former cized U.S. surrender to "black-

Congressman Dingell advised

being among the first to recog-
nize Israel, but he said the Jews
could not forget the anti-Se-
mitic wave that started in
Czechoslovakia with the Sian-
sky trial and the Jewish doctors'
trial in Moscow.
Lopez expressed his belief
in the sincerity of the Soviet
delegates in opposing anti-Semi-
tism but said there was the
question whether the present
anti-Zionist stand by the Soviet
Union could not also be a form

The Russian delegate leaped'

to his feet to deny this. He

the assembly that
Soviet laWs "severely punish"
anti-Semitism and he said the
trial of the MoSeew doctors was
not solely anti-Semitic since
many non-Jewish doctors were
involved as well. He accused
Lopez of attempting to provoke
quarrels among the delegates.
The Israel delegate Ada Se-
reni, addressing the conference,
expressed hope that the Soviet
government would soon grant to
Jews in the Soviet Union the
same cultural and linguistic
rights as other nationalities en-
joy there.
Attending the conference were
delegates from Italy, France,
West Germany, Austria, Great
Britain, Greece, the Soviet
