Kiev Jews Denied Permit to Bake Matzo for Passover, Report Confirms NEW YORK (JTA) — Leaders of the Jewish community in Kiev have confirmed reports that the synagogue in that Soviet city was refused permission to bake matzo for Passover, according to a cable from Moscow to the New York Times. The confirmation of the reports by the Kiev Jews contradicted a claim made earlier this week by Dimitri Chavakhin, Soviet ambas- sador to Israel, who denied that there was any matzo ban in Kiev. The Soviet envoy made this claim during a conversation with Israeli Chief Rabbi Isser Yehuda Unter- man. the British Broadcasting Corp. re- ported that while Jews in Moscow and Leningrad apparently would be able to get matzo this year, other scattered communities were unlikely to get enough matzo for Passover "if indeed they get them at all." Despite recent claims of ade- quate matzo baking facilities this year in Moscow and Leningrad, in- formed sources in London reported that generally, there is still no or- ganized matzo baking in those cities and each individual must bring his own flour. The sources noted that baking has so far been permitted only at three ovens in three synagogues in the Moscow area and one in Leningrad. They noted that while the Soviet authorities had recently shown foreign correspondents the ovens in Moscow where matzo baking was being carried out, no such facilities had been shown to cor- respondents in Kiev. They voiced the hope that the matzo ban would be rescinded throughout the Soviet Union. The Board of Deputies of British Jews decided to convene a con- ference of various Jewish organi- zations to discuss the posit?on of Soviet Jewry. The meeting will be held April 8. Meanwhile world protests against Soviet treatment of the Jews con- tinued this week. In St. Louis, major Jewish lay and religious organizations and in- stitutions sponsored a , protest meeting Sunday. Among those attending the gath- ering were prominent civic lead- ers, Catholic and Protestant clergy- men and educators and personali- ties in all walks of life. Guest speaker at the meeting was Philip M. Klutznick, • honorary president of Bnai Brith and a former mem- ber of the United States delegation to the United Nations. In Mexico City. an appeal to the world's conscience to join in pro- testing against anti-Jewish discrim- inations in the Soviet Union was issued by the Front for Human Dry Cleaned and Finished with decorator fold.

S recognition of the Free State of Israel, Judaica Press, New York, will publish "Portraits of a People," a three-volume history of the Jews from ancient to modern times, by Charles Raddock. The author, former editor of the Jew- ish Forum, is a working newspaper- man and UN correspondent. His trilogy of the Jewish people begins with the Middle Bronze Age, era of Abraham of Ur, tradi- tionally regarded as the "first `Jew" and ends with the 21st Roman Catholic Ecumenical Council which, last November, took preliminary action to clear the Jews of "dei- cide." According to Judacia Press, the newsman-historian was moved to undertake so ambitious a project as a "global history spanning 38 centuries and six continents" after UNESCO (United Nations Educa- tional, Scientific and Cultural Or- ganization) had failed to earmark unilateral space for the "whole Jewish story" in its own History of Mankind plan, a project design- ed to cover all nations. "Portrait of a People" is the sec ond multi-volume publishing venture of Judaica Press, whose first was a seven-volume English rendition of the Mishnah, 2nd- century classic held by Jews as next in importance to the Bible. it is hungrier for culture than any other country in the world."

Brandeis U. Study Nullifies Popular View of Integration WALTHAM, Mass. — Residential integration in Boston will be ac- complished if white couples move into rehabilitated houses or new apartments being erected in the city's Washington Park urban re- newal area, a two-year Brandeis University study of middle-income Negro families in Roxbury con- cludes. The study, contained in a 100- page booklet, "The Middle-Income . Negro Family Faces Urban Re- newal," also disagrees with the popular view that integration will be accomplished by an opposite pattern—the movement of Negroes to the suburbs. In addition, the report states that Boston's middle-income Ne- groes do not have free choice in the selection of houses and that rentals in the city are often subtly denied to them, but if they want to buy there is a reasonable selec- tion of suburban houses available. Conversely, h o w e v e r, the re- searchers report that most Negroes did not want to move to the sub- urbs. In this respect, the research team concluded that instead of Negro and white families eventual- ly living side by side in the sub- urbs, it appears they will be liv- ing next to each other in city apartments. Cheap rent and the fact that the community is about to be "physi- cally restored and its social climate reformed" were the main reasons given by the Negroes for remain- ing in their present housing aeas. The project was conducted by sociologists and social workers from Brandeis' Florence Heller Graduate School for Advanced Studies in Social Welfare. "Jewish Youth — Jewish Identi- fication," a discussion of the spe- cial needs and problems of youth growing up in the Jewish commun- ity, will be the topic of a panel discussion 8:30 p.m. Tuesday at Cong. Beth Shalom. Speakers will be Rabbi Mordecai Halpern; Leonard Antel, assistant junior high school principal and farmer counselor; and Bernard Jaffe, assistant principal and Unit- ed Synagogue South regional di- rector.
