" Novak's account may well be termed a tragedy. The chapter "The Chosen People" is espe- cially heartrending. At the very outset, one of the persons inter- viewed asserts: "The Russian nation is chosen to rule, and the Jewish nation chosen to be hated." -YOUNG ISRAEL TOURS allow you to en- joy the thrilling beauty and adventure of Mexido — with the congenial com- panionship of a Young Israel group. ,HIGHLIGHTS OF * 15-DAY FIESTA ,AIR-TOUR TO MEXICO 6; The revelations indicate that the Jews, in spite of their contributions to Russian life, are not even mentioned in the basic reference book, The Achievements . of the Soviet Regime in Forty Years Given in Statistics. "We have been erased from Soviet reality," a noted Jewish psychologist told Novak. "During the war," he said, "of the 11,000 sol- - diers and officers in the So- viet Army who received the title- of Hero of the Soviet Union, about 530 were Jews. But they have been forgot- ten.- Though publications about Heroes of the Soviet Union list various nationali- ties, they never mention the Jews."

As he boarded the plane to leave Russia, he was advised: "Be sure not to send any cards or letters to us. Forget that you knew us. You understand, memory is the worst thing. Try to forget what- ever you remembered." This concluding message emphasizes the tragedy of the Soviet-domin- ated land. * DIFFERENT DEPARTURE a ir DATES THIS SUMMER * July 3rd 7k July 10th *August 7th -*August 21st Novak how Khrushchev- carries on the Stalin anti-Semitic tradi- tion. He accused Khrushchev of replacing the old slogan "work- ers of the world, unite," with the new slogan, "anti-Semites of the world, unite:' This Jew- ish scholar said: "Until reecntly the anti-Sem- ites used to talk about 'the Jew- ish Commune'; now the Jews talk about 'the anti-Semitic Commune.' . . . When they fight against the strengthening of Is- rael, the anti-Semites promote the Kremlin policy in Arabian affairs. Their relationship to Israel reminds you of the rela- tionship of racists to Jesus Christ. Because they doubt whether He existed at all, they proclaim to the world that the Jews murdered Him." ONE TO ACCOMMODATE YOUR VACATION SCHEDULE * * * A report submitted to the Committee on Foreign Rela- tions of the United States Sen- ate on the U. S. S. R. and East- ern Europe was largely written by Dr. Marshall D. Shulman, associate director of the Rus- sian Research Center at Harv- ard University. Alexander Dallin and Henry L. Robert cooperated in the presentation of the report, which was published by the Senate Foreign Relations Corn- mittee, with a preface by Sen- ator J. W. Fulbright, chairman of the committee. The report contains analyses of U. S.-Soviet relations and outlines "some essential conditions for U. S. policy" and domestic aspects of the problem. Dr. Shulman is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry M. Shulman, well known Detroiters. * * * An essay by Dr. Shulman is included also in "Soviet Con- duct in World Affairs," a selec- tion of readings compiled by Alexander Dallin, published by Columbia University Press. Dr. Shulman, who recently returned from a study tour of major Rus- sian cities, is represented in this volume by the essay, "Changing Ap- preciation of the Soviet Pr ob lem." In it he discusses "not merely the wisdom of our policies, but the ad- equacy of our institutions for Shulman the conduct of our affairs both at home and abroad." He de- clares that "the full measure of political genius of the Amer- ican people will be needed" to determine "whether we can ac- cept the need for a higher de- gree of centralization in certain areas of our national life to pro- vide for a more rational and effective use of our resources, and at the same time vigilantly distinguish and preserve the pluralist values of our society in the cultural and spiritual realm." Dallin's volume contains sym- munities and to allow Jews wishing to emigrate to Israel to do so in a resolution adopted by the Socialist International Council now meeting here. In another resolution the delegates supported' Israel's de- mands for unimpeded transit in the Suez Canal and backed the rights of those seamen who haVe suffered from the Arab blockade of Israel. The dele- gates also called for' gradual disarmament under mutual con- trols. Prime Minister David Ben- Gurion addressed a mass meet- ing of 25,000 persons who turned out to welcome the So- cialist leaders. He said that if the Council meeting of Social- ists from Europe, Asia and Africa "turns out" to be a prec- edent for further cooperation between Nations, then this meeting may become a historic turning point and may even be more important than the sum- mit talks." He stressed that "in the final analysis it is not the leaders but the working classes that decide the world's future." Other speakers at the rally at Haifa Stadium were Alsing Andersen, president of the So. cialist International, British So- cialist leader Hugh Gaitskell, who' praised. Israel for having of speaking to Israelis. He ex- pressed the hope that Israel would learn to trust the "new Germany." There Is Still Time To Pay Tribute to ...
