12,000 Jewish Youths March
on Behalf of Soviet Brothers

NEW YORK (JTA) — About sented by a youth delegation at

12,000 New York Jewish youths the U.S. Mission to the United

have marched through the streets
of midtown Manhattan in a Pass-
over youth protest on behalf of
Soviet Jewry. The youths were ac-
companied in their protest march
by a number of congressmen, state
senators and assemblymen. Carry-
ing banners and posters, the stu-
dents, who represented 22 Jewish
youth organizations, marched 25
blocks in a symbolic encirclement
of the Soviet UN Mission a n d
the United Nations. The march
took place April 8.
Later, at a mass rally in the
shadow of the United Nations, the
youths heard Sen. Jacob K. Javits,
New York Republican, tell them:
"We do and we shall continue to
protest. We are not just . holding
this protest for the Jewish people;
we are holding it for the freedom
of religion for all mankind." The
USSR should know, the senator
said, that these "protests will not
cease until the Jews in the USSR
receive equality with other minori-
ties.

The youth rally was sponsored
by the New York Youth Confer-
ence for Soviet Jewry. Some of
the banners read: "Awake to the
Plight of Soviet Jewry;" "Save
Soviet Jewry;" and "That Their
Spirit Shall Be Free, Let My
People Go."

The marchers demanded tit?. ces-
sation of the discriminatory ban on
all forms of Jewish education in
the Soviet Union; the cessation of
all discrimination against Jewish
university students and profession-
als; the reunification of families
torn apart by two world wars; the
restoration of Jewish cultural life;
and the implementation of rights
guaranteed to members of all na-
tionalities under the Soviet consti-
tution.
These demands were later pre-

Nations to Ambassador James Na-
brit, deputy representative for the
U.S. on the UN Security Council.
The ambassador was asked to use
his good offices to implement these
demands in the United Nations.

Meaning of Passover
Brought to Campus

WASHINGTON — At City Col-
lege of New York, Jewish students
marched in front of the United Na-
tions in an all-night, pre-Passover
vigil for Soviet Jewry.
At model seders at the Universi-
ty of Colorado and Queens College
in New York, they explained the
meaning of Passover to representa-
tives of Christian student groups.
At Yale they conducted a seder for
30 Jewish patients in the campus
hospital.
A number of Hillel Foundations
invited Christian students and
clergy to seders. Members of the
Catholic Club at Massachusetts In-
stitute of Technology, including a
nun of the Order of Loredo, were
among the 110 at MIT Hillel's two
seders.
Many Hillel directors invited
Jewish students who had remained
on campus for Passover to their
own homes or arranged for them
to attend seders with Jewish fam-
ilies in the community.
At Ohio State, 400 students at-
tended the first seder, 200 the
second.
Passover food was made avail-
able to students on many campus-
es. The Hillel Foundation at the
University of Maryland, with the
largest campus kosher dining club
in the country, provided some 1,650
meals during the eight-day holiday.
At the University of Cincinnati,
Hillel counsellor Edward Goldman
arranged for one of the three food
lines in the student cafeteria to
serve Passover food with paper
plates and plastic utensils.
