MICH • France Will 1Petition Soviet on Jewish Issue PARIS, (JTA) — Assurances that the French delegation will raise the question of Soviet anti-Semitism at the United Na- tions Human Rights Commis. sion which opened its 18th ses- sion in New York Monday were given by French Foreign Min- istry officials. The assurances were given to Armand Kaplan, World Jew- ish Congress director for France, who met for an hour with senior officials of the For- eign Ministry. During the meet- ing, he cited the most recent sentences imposed on Jews in Russia and other recent mani- festations of anti-Jewish ac- tions. It was indicated that the French delegation would call on Russian delegates at the meeting of the Human Rights commission for an explanation and thus demonstrate that the anti-Jewish activities were not passing unnoticed in the free world. . The Commission is an inter- governmental body before which such voluntary organizations as the World Jewish Congress may not appear, in contrast to the procedures of the Human Rights Subcommittee which met last year.
