country by the mass immigra-
tion from Algeria. The dele-
gates represented all French
Jewish religious, cultural and
political trends.
A picture of what has already
been done, and proposals for
further speedy action by the
French Jewish community,
were detailed by E. Kaufmann,
the FSJU's, special representa-
tive for North African Affairs.
While the general, heavy Al-
gerian immigration to France
increased the overall French
population by one percent, he
said, the Jewish population in
this country has swelled by 14
percent as a result of the
arrivals from Algeria.
City-by-city reports given by
the delegates showed how the
Algerian situation has affected
. the French Jewish scene. A •
delegate from Marseilles re-
ported that on some of the
ships that arrived at Marseilles,
up to 20 percent of the refugees
were Jews. The Jewish com-
munity, he said, had to do what
it could for the Jewish refugees,
finding it most urgent to help
especially those who were in
dire need.
A delegate from Strassbourg
painted a similar picture of
need and urgency. Some of the
Jewish refugees from Algeria,
he said, were from districts in
the Sahara who found it par-
ticularly difficult to adjust to
a new life. At least 200 were
children separated from their
parents. These were taken in
by Jewish families in Strass-
bourg, and " are now enrolled
in special classes, being pre-
pared for regular schooling.
In some instances, the surge
of Jewish refugees from Al-
geria into very small Jewish
communities in France served,
paradoxically, to inject fresh
life and new vitality to those
isolated communities. But, as a
whole, the "situation is most
serious," the delegates were
told by J. Samuel, director of
the FSJU.
Samuel chided some of the
French Jews who, he stated,
did not rise to the situation.
"Although 100,000 Algerian
Jewish refugees arrived here,"
he declared, "less than 10,000
French Jews found sufficient
generosity and solidarity to
really open their hearts."
"We need concrete plans," he
asserted, "we need solid meas-
ures to settle the tens of
thousands of Algerian Jewish
refugees who need our help
despite government assistance.
Much remains to be done. Many
still live in particularly tragic
and difficult • conditions."
The main problems needing
immediate action, he said, con-
cern "first, the aged, on whose
behalf a special responsibility
falls upon the entire Jewish
community; secondly, the chil-
dren who have been separated
from their families; third, con-
crete, long-term planning for
the integration of the Jewish
refugees into the Jewish com-
munity; fourth, housing.

Nuclear Engineering
Center to Be Built
on Technion Campus

HAIFA, (JTA) — A Nuclear
Engineering Center will be con-
structed on the campus of the
Technion-Israel Institute of Tech-
nology here, following receipt of
a gift from the Sherman Foun-
dation of Cardiff, Wales, for one
million Israeli pounds.
Abe Sherman investigated Is-
rael's engineering requirements
during a recent trip. Upon his
return to Wales, he and his
brother, Harry, decided to pre-
sent the gift to Technion — the
largest single gift ever received
by the Technion from Great
Britain — for the establishment
of a nuclear center that will
bear the Sherman family name.
The new facility will open up
new possibilities for Israel in the
field of a nuclear power pro-
gram for peacetime purposes.
