Philips also paid tribute to
the bravery of Elisabethville

the Congo until assured that no

The Congo situation was de-
scribed as "fluid" by Philips.

Philips.
According to Philips, im-

the refugees when they stream-
ed into nearby Rhodesia. Gustav
Saron, General Secretary of
the Board of Deputies, was sent
to the Rhodesian Copper Belt
area to co-operate with Rho-

Consulate in arranging urgent
help. The South African Jewish
Appeal also sent a substantial
grant.
The Jewish refugees escaped
with only the clothes they wore

Three Israeli Medical Units Start
Working in Congo; Organize Aid

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Three
Israel medical teams dispatched
to the Congo have begun work-
ing in and around Leopoldville.
The largest group has been
assigned to manage the 650-bed
Kitambo Hospital in Leopold-
ville. A smaller group has been
put in charge of the Leopold-
ville municipal Sanitation De-
partment while a third unit is
at work in the Institute of
Tropical Diseases in that city.
A party of Jewish refugees
from Elizabethville arrived
here via Rhodesia with virtually
no possessions other than the
clothes they were wearing.
Jacob Shalom, who owned a
grocery store in the Katanga
capital, said that after his store
was burned by rioters, he fled
to Rhodesia along with many
other white refugees. He said
there were about 1,000 Jewish
refugees from the Congo to
Salisbury.
Among the arrivals here was
an Israeli-born woman, Mrs.
