Algerian Jeers _Plead: 'Save Our Childress • 200 Unaccompanied Child Refugees Arrive in France; More Expected (Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News) PARIS — A "Save Our Chil- dren" campaign was in full swing Wednesday among the re- maining Jews of Algeria, par- ticularly in the strife-torn city of Oran, where new bloodshed is feared with only three days to go before Algeria becomes independent under Moslem rule. Some 200 unaccompanied child refugees have arrived in France and several hundred more are expected before July 1. The total may reach 3,000 before the end of the year, ac- cording to projections prepared by Jewish social workers. Looming over. the Algerian drama is the tragedy of count- less children threatened with physical violence and exposed to daily scenes of unparalleled bloodshed and violence. Their parents are anxious to get them to metropolitan France at the earliest possible moment. Jewish children are con- sidered as under special threat because of the notori- ous anti-Jewish sentiments of the Moslem crowds, wiich many here fear may run amok when Algeria becomes inde- pendent. One hundred-and-fifty Jewish child refugees have been placed in Jewish communal institutions in Strasbourg. The Fond Social Junif Unifie, the principal Jew- ish welfare agency, is making special efforts to arrange simi- lar facilities in Paris and cen- ters. (A report to the New York Times from Algiers this week stated that of the 280,000 who left Algeria since April, 60,000 were Jews; that "Jewish com- munities have virtually disap- peared; that only 2,000 of the original 18,000 Jews remain in Constantine). Young Israel Organization Leaves Ranks of American Jewish Congress GREENFIELD PARK, N.Y., (JTA)—Young Israel, an organ- ization fostering orthodox Judaism among youth and adults and claiming a 125,000 membership, announced at its jubilee convention here that it has left the ranks of the Amer- ican Jewish Congress. In making the announcement Rabbi David H. Hill. president of the National Council of Young Israel. told the four hundred delegates "the Ameri- can Jewish Congress has, time and time again, taken stands which are opposed to Orthodox philosophies." He cited the stand recently taken by the American Jewish Congress on the Shehita Bill and on the Adoption Laws and said that the AJC had blocked the participation of Orthodox Jews at its recent convention by holding it in a non-kosher hotel. Rabbi Hill claimed that "the American Jewish Con- gress had turned into a Civil Liberties Union." He em- phasized that while Young Israel encouraged the fight for civil liberties, it felt that this work was already being done adequately by numerous other bodies. Rabbi Hill added that the- Na- tional Council of Young Israel had done all in its power to influence the acts of the Ameri- can Jewish Congress but to no avail. The organization has been affiliated with the American Jewish Congress for over 15 years. ♦ t * erican Jewish Congress, es- pecially since the reason given for their action mis- represents the character of the Congress. It is not true, as they say, that CongreSs is merely a 'civil liberties' or- ganization. "The concern of Congress with problems of civil rights and separation of church .and state sterns from its deep com-. mitment to the defense of the rights of the Jewish community and the vital interests of Jews in the preservation of religious liberty. While Young Israel may differ with Congress on a question such as Federal aid 1 to parochial schools, it cannot properly claim that its view must prevail over the demo- cratically arrived at decision of the governing council of the Congress in which Young Israel as well as all other af- filiated organizations have been fully represented."
