It was asserted here that the move was a pure propaganda gesture, made in response to growing indignation over the infringement of basic rights of free migration in Morocco, a step which will be of no benefit to Moroccan Jews. The Jewish organizations noted that the action does not touch the basic difficulty, that of getting passports. . • The basic situation was made clear earlier, when the Moroccan gov- ernment charged that "Zionist organizations" were driving Moroccan Jews to Israel "under any conditions" and that the organizations were respon- sible for the January 11 sea • disaster in which 43 Moroccan Jewish men, women and children fleeing to Israel perished off the coast of Morocco.

The group adopted a resolution Monday morning condemning "manifestations of anti-Semitism and other forms of racial and religious intolerance of a similar nature." The resolution urged the Subcommission's parent body, the Human Rights Commission, to call for "specific measures" to combat such mani- festations through legislative enactments by member-governments of the United Nations. The Subcommission's resolution also leaves the door open to further study of the general topic, "should circumstances" render such further debate necessary. The resolution requested the Human Rights Commission and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization "to em- phasize the importance of drawing attention in educational programs of member .countries to the dangers and evils of racial, national and religious hatred, including anti-Semitism." It recommended that a resolution be placed ultimately. before the UN General Assembly which would call for "specific measures to forestall and eliminate manifestations of racial, na- tional and religious hatred in different parts of the world." The charge that the Soviet government has done nothing so far about the accusations leveled by Jewish organizations in their memoranda to the United Nations was voiced in the . Subcommission by Col.

"He began his association with the' organized Jewish community as a teen-ager. The Hannah Schloss Build- ing, on old High Street was his second home.
