country since 1950, he helped set

who constitute the bulk of North
Africa's large and impoverished
Jewish population.
Over the years, he has been re-
sponsible for programs affect-
ing the lives and welfare of
hundreds of thousands of Jews,
beginning with his experience as
JDC country director for the
American Zone of Germany from
1947 to 1954, when he headed
up a vast program of aid to
$200,000 Jewish displaced per-
sons.
Following the establishment of
Israel's independence in 1948, he
helped speed the emigration of
many tens of thousands of Jewish
DPs to Israel and to the United
States under the Emergency Dis-
placed Persons Act.

NEW YORK (JTA) — The na-
tional executive council of the
Zionist Organization of America,
ruling body of the organizatiOn be-
tween annual conventions, unani-
mously approved a declaration pre-
sented by its president, Dr. Max
Nussbaum, summoning American
Zionists to rally to the defense of
the Zionist movement in the face
of "the most massive barrage of
attacks by its enemies since the
establishment of the State of
Israel."
The adoption of the declaration
was accompanied by a strongly
worded warning by Dr. Emanuel
Neumann of New York, member
of the American Section of the
Jewish Agency for Israel and pre-
sident of the World Union of
General Zionists, against what he
termed "the export of anti-Jewish
propaganda from Cairo to various
countries of the Eastern and West-
ern hemispheres" with emphasis
on the urgency for the American
Jewish community to act on this
"sinister aspect of extremist Arab
nationlism." Jacques Torczyner,
chairman of the Council, presided
at meetings.
Dr. Nussbaum asserted that
"American Zionists cannot and
will not remain silent in the face
of such attacks," describing Zion-
ism as "an ideal which is rooted
in Jewish history and Jewish reli-
gious tradition for over 2,000
years." In order that the "Atheri-
can people may have a full under-
standing of its true aims and pur-
poses." he reiterated the principles
and ideology of the Zionist move-
ment.
Dr. Neumann, in his address,
charging Arab nationalist lead-
ers with having "embarked upon
an anti-Jewish policy," asserted:
"It is directed in part against
their own Jewish nationals, re-
gardless of their attitude to-
wards Zionism; and against Jews
in general, in other parts of the
world. They do not shrink from
using the poisonous weapon of
anti-Semitic propaganda."
Dr. Neumann further charged
that "Cairo has become the center
of a planned and concerted anti-
Jewish campaign, pursued with
the participation of virtually all
the Arab states" adding that "they
have in fact become the heirs of
Nazi Germany by raising anti-
Semitism to the status of official
policy; and their anti-Jewish pro-
paganda is exported to various
countries in the Eastern and West-
ern hemispheres.
"In many instances Arab agents
and agencies are linked with neo-
Nazi and Fascist. groups equally
committed to virulent anti-Semi-
1964 national biennial convention-
here.

tion of more than 300 Jewish

tism. Neither the Western democ-
racies nor even the Jewish com-
munities in the Free World have
as yet reacted in any significant
measure to this new menace," he
said.
Torczyner cited what he describ-
ed "the growing anti-Israel and
anti-Semitic propaganda which is
being conducted at American col-
leges and universities by thousands
of Arab students." He charged that
"this propaganda must not be left
unchecked as it injects the poison
of bigotry and anti-Semitism in
the minds of American youth."
Dr. Sidney Marks, director of
the ZOA, presented a report on
the progress of all phases of ZOA
activities encompassing member-
ship, education programming,
youth, world Zionist affairs and
public information.

MILAN, (JTA) — An American
rabbi arrived here at the invitation
of Roman Catholic authorities to
organize a research project on the
effect the crucifixion story has had
in producing anti-Semitism over
the centuries.
Rabbi Henry E. Kagan of Mount
Vernon, N.Y., an expert on the
psychology of anti-Semitism, will
work closely with three members
of the faculty of Catholic Univer-
sity of the Sacred Heart here. The
study was authorized by Arch-
bishop Carlo Colombo of Milan,
who is theological adviser to Pope
Paul VI.
