20 Years of Brotherhood in Action Under USO Banner Goldmann Confers with French
Ministers on Fate of Algerian Jews
For two decades Jews, Catholics and Protes-
tants have been united in morale service to '
America's servicemen and women and their
dependents at home and abroad, in war, in
peace and in cold war, under the banner of
USO. The 20th anniversary of this unique inter-
faith alliance for service to the military is now
being observed. From the inception of USO
just before World War II, the National Jewish
Welfare Board has represented the American
Jewish community in this tri-faith example, of "
brotherhood in action.

conference of the British Zion-
ist Federation.
Dr. S. Levenberg; a leader of
the British Labor-Zionist move-
ment, told the conference that,
in the last year, 77 articles at-
tacking Jewry and Zionism have
appeared in the Soviet press.
The main problem facing Soviet
Jewry now, he declared, "con-
cerns nationality and socio-
economic affairs." The Soviet
policy toward Jews, he stated,
"is contradictory, forcing Jews
toward assimilation and, at the
same time, impelling them to-
ward separatism."

DAYTON, (JTA)—The Jewish
Community Council of - Dayton
reported that a bill for humane
slaughter now before the Ohio
House of Representatives has had
added to it the so-called Federal
Case Amendment. This amend-
ment defines Jewish ritual
slaughter as humane and provides
for handling and preparation of
animals for slaughter.
The bill requires "humane
methods of slaughter" of live-
stock and fixes penalties for
violation. Since the Federal
amendment gives state approval
to shehita, the bill in its present
form precludes any damage to
the Jewish community position.

PARIS, (jTA) — Dr. Nahum
Goldmann conferred here with
French Foreign Minister Maurice
Couve de Murville and othei
leaders - interested in Franco-
Algerian affairs, and was under-
stood to have been given the as-
surance that they will do all they
can to keep the 130,000 Jews i
Algeria within the European c
munity, when the Algerian
lem is settled.
Others attending the
eting
with Goldmann were Lou Joxe,
French Minister for
gerian
affairs, and Jean Morin, legate-
general for Algerian Aff s.
Meanwhile, dispatches ceived
here from Algeria repo d one
Jew killed and several
ded
during rebel rioting ove
e
weekend. The dead man, Ar
Reboha, was shot at Algiers while
cruising in a taxicab. Near Oran,
a hand grenade was tossed into
a factory where Jews were work-
ing, and several of them were
injured.
The outrages did - not bear a
specific anti-Semitic character but
were, rather, the results of a
general anti-European campaign
being conducted by some of the
Algerian- rebels, the reports em-
phasized.
