Churchmen Back Reform in Immigration Laws ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (JTA)- - The National Council of Churches . encouraged the platform commit- tee of the Democratic Party to include a plank in the party's plat- form pledging efforts to eliminate the discriminatory, national ori- gins quota provision of U.S. im- . migration laws. - Addressing the committee, Mrs. Theodore F. - Wallace, a vice-presi- dent of the National Council of Churches, said that "any system which gives .three countries (Ger- many, r eland and the United Kingdom) 70 per cent of the avail- able quotas, while 102 countries receive the remaining 30 per cent, is an affront to the peoples of the world." "We hope that the Democratic National Convention could pledge its support for substantial reform of our immigration laws at the earliest possible moment," Mrs. Wallace deelared. Political Adv. Tass Denies USSR Is Anti-Semitic- Attacks Senators LONDON (JTA) — Tass, the official Soviet news agency, issued a heated denial of the existence of anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union, and contrasted the life of Jews in Russia with that of Negroes in the United States. Tass said that alle- gations by "some United States Senators" -concerning maltreatment of Soviet Jews were attempts "to divert world public opinion from America's own race troubles." "Some" U.S. quarters, Tass said, "have made it a habit to resort to insinuations against the USSR every time there is an outburst of racist terror in the United States." Comparing the lot - of Jews in the USSR with Negroes in the United States, Tass asked:. "Are they (the Jews). attacked by police dogs (in Russia)" . are the Negroes of Texas or Alabama? Are they (the Jews) being lynched?" Attempting to answer charges that Russian Jews are singled out and _harshly punished for alleged "economic crime s," Tass said: "Some people who are sentenced, by Soviet courts from time to time for different crimes are Jews. It is common knowledge that crim- inals in any multinational state may , be of different nationalities. They may include Jews, too. The same happens in the United States. Tass insisted that the Soviet Union was among the few coun- tries without the "so-called Jewish problem," adding that Jews were granted absolutely equal rights with other citizens after the 1917 Soviet revolution. The statement declared that, while Jews repre- 1 sented only 1.08 per cent of the teehnology this year. It also said Soyiet population, 20 Jewish sci- that five of fife 28 new members entists were . '-among the 131 win- of the Soviet Academy of Sciences ners of Lenin prizes in science and were Jewish. . STATE . SENATOR-.
