BRIGHTON, England, (JTA)
—The 95th Trade Union Con-
gress of Britain paid tribute
here this week to Israel's "ef-
fective assistance" to develop-
ing countries.
A. Bonnet, district secretary
in Scotland, and a member of
the general council of the Na-
tional Union of General and
Municipal Workers, told the
1,000 delegates from 176 British
unions that Israel, "starting
from scratch," had achieved an
outstanding record in develop-
ment problems. He recently
visited Israel with a delegation

on behalf of his union, the third
largest in Britain, with more
than 800,000 members.
He stressed that Histadrut,
Israel's Labor Federation, has
a "unique structure" in trade
unionism and cooperative activi-
ties, which had been of great
help to working people in de-
veloping countries " and an in-
spiration to trade unionists
everywhere." He stated he had
been particularly impressed by
the Histadrut's Afro-Asian In-
stitue which, he said, had
trained in its first year 640
students from 51 countries.

South African Jews
Reaffirm Loyalty to
Apartheid Government

JOHANNESBURG ( JTA ) —
The South African Jewish Board
of Deputies issued a statement
here reaffirming the loyalty and
patriotism of the Jewish com-
munity in this country and dis-
claiming responsibility for re-
cent acts by individual Jews
charged with subversive activi-
ties in opposition to the govern-
ment's apartheid policy.
The board's statement was in
response to questions raised by
Dagbreek, the country's largest
Afrikaans newspaper, over the
recent arrest of Arthur Gold-
reich, a piominent artist and
architect, and Harold Wolpe, an
attorney, who were detained by
police along with a number of
other whites and non-w hit es
charged with heading an anti-
apartheid subversive group.
"The facts demonstrate over-
whelmingly," the board declared,
"that the Jewish community of
South Africa is an established,
loyal and patriotic section of
the population. The actions of
individuals of any section are
their own responsibility and no
section of the community can
or should be asked to accept
responsibility. If individuals
transgress the law, they expose
themselves to the penalty of the
law. The Jewish community con-
demns the breaking of the law,
in whatever section of the popu-
lation it might occur."
