Minister's Forthcoming
Trip to Spain Arouses
Criticism in Israel

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Min-
ister of Social Welfare Yosef
Burg is leaving soon for Spain,
to represent Israel at an inter-
national welfare conference to
be held in that country.
The Cabinet approved the
trip, reportedly without debate.
There was severe criticism
among various Israeli parties
against Burg's trip, which will
mark the first time a member
of the Cabinet will visit Franco
Spain.- Representatives of the
Mapam and Ahdut Avodah par-
ties were unhappy because the
Government would thus permit
one of its ministers to visit a
country run by a Fascist dictator
who backed Hitler during
World War II. Since Burg is a
member of the National Reli-
gious Party, religious elements
are unhappy about his trip,
pointing out that Orthodox
Jews have avoided visiting
Spain since the mass expulsion
of Jews from that country in
1492.
When the Research Institute
of. Labor Zionist Movement first
began the task of publishing the
record of Zionist pioneering ef-
forts in Poland, it was believed
that the results of the research
efforts could be incorporated
into two volumes.
With the appearance of the
second volume, it has become ap-
parent that a third volume will
be necessary.
"Halutzim in Poland," edited
by Leib Spizman, is being pub-
lished with the aid of the Con-
ference on Jewish Material
Claims Against German y,
through a grant from its cul-
tural and educational reconstruc-
tion fund.
"The second volume contains
voluminous data about the Polish
halufi movement. in 1940-42 and
the cultural work in the ghettos,
and because of the time involved
there is such an impressive mass
of facts about the resistance to
Nazism that this volume emerges
as a valuable contribution to the
history of the- World War II
tragedy.

BONN, (JTA) — The faculty

selected inmates for the gas
chambers. A notice has been
placed on the university bulle-
tin board, summoning Mengele

Spizman stated in his pref-
ace to the second volume that
the third volume will contain
data about the partisans in the
last war, the parachutists who
invaded territory in order to
organize resistance activities,
the Jewish Brigade and other
related factors.
We feel a debt of gratitude to
the editor and to the publishers
