UN Study Views
Anti-Semitic Act s
as "Fever" Sipi

UNITED NATIONS, (JTA)—
The world-wide outbursts of swas-
tika-smearings and other anti-
Semitic manifestations a year
ago were interpreted in an offi-
cial United Nations document as
a "fever" which is a symptom
of deep-seated illness that could
affect all the world "if not cured
in time."
The document, a report by the
United Nations Educational, Sci-
entific and Cultural Organization,
was circulated to all UN dele-
gations by Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold. Specifically, the
survey was addressed to the Hu-
man Rights Commission's Sub-
commission on the Prevention of
Discrimination and Protection of
Minorities.
The subcommission met in Jan-
uary 1960, during the height of
the anti-Semitic outbreaks which
followed the desecration of the
synagogue at Cologne, Germany,
on the eve of Christmas 1959.
The subcommission adopted a re-
port severely condemning the
current rash of anti-Semitic out-
bursts, requesting all UN agencies
concerned, as well as govern-
ments, to re-examine the back-
ground of such outbursts and
their implications.
Next month, the subcommis-
sion will convene again for its
annual three-week session. The
UNESCO report circulated by
Hammarskjold will be only one
of a number of documents on
anti-Semitism to be placed be-
fore the subcommission for fur-
ther study.
Many governments, according
to the UNESCO - report, are do-
ing what they can to curb or
suppress anti-Semitism. "Except
in a very few countries," the re-
port stated, "racism is condemned
both by governments and public
opinion. Indeed, an anti-racist
ethic, solidly based on the prin-
ciples of the Universal Declara-
tion of Human Rights, appears to
have taken shape in the world
since the war."
Last year's outbreaks, sparked
in Germany andspreading
, showed
throughout the world
latent anti-Semitism but were
really, according to the report,
"unrelated to anti-Semitism as
such. "In a sense," UNESCO
stated, "it would have been better
if the incidents had been pro-
voked by openly anti-Semitic
groups and had not been so gen-
eral in character. The manifesta-
tions, whatever their origin, must
be interpreted as symptoms of
social tensions which cannot be
treated lightly."
Most of the manifestations, the •
study shows, were the work of
"young people" giving "expres-
sion to latent frustration and re-
sentment." The acts showed "sub-
conscious racist prejudice," the
study • states, and "it would seem
more likely that the acts are a
gesture of defiance, symbolized
by the swastika, which is associ-
ated with images of cruelty and
violence.
"The defiance of humanitarian
feeling implicit in Nazi anti-
Semitism," UNESCO concludes,
"undoubtedly has an attraction
for rebels without a cause, who
wish to place themselves above
conventional sentiments, and who
revolt • against their society's
values without creating new
values."

"Every man of Israel is ob-
liged to study the Torah, be
he poor or rich, well or af-
flicted, young or old and
feeble; even a poor man living
on charity and going about
seeking alms, or one who has
the care of a wife and chil-
dren, must set apart periods,
day and night, for the study
of the Torah. And thus he
must do until the day of his
death. For, whenever he fails
to devote himself to study,
he is sure to forget."
—Maimonides.
