for Anti-Semitic Remark by Officer

.

NEW YORK (JTA) — The Con-
gress of Racial Equality disclosed
that it had expelled its Mount
Vernon chapter as an aftermath
of an anti-Semitic remark made
by a chapter officer.
Clifford Brown, then educational
chairman of the chapter, told an
audience of 100 persons, including
Jews, that "Hitler made one mis-
take, he didn't kill enough of you."
The shouted remark came at the
height of a heated meeting on
school integration of the Mount
Vernon Board of Education Feb. 3.
James Farmer, then CORE na-
tional director, called the remark

First Marranos

"intolerable" and ordered an
investigation. Several members
of CORE's national board, in-
cluding Will Maslow, American
Jewish Congress executive direc-
tor, were not satisfied with
Farmer's reaction and resigned.
Later, Brown apologized and he
resigned.
In announcing the expulsion,
CORE said it had "to spend
thousands of man-hours disavow-
ing bigotry." A spokesman said
that there had been a sharp drop
in contributions to CORE which
currently has a $200,000 deficit."

a chance meeting with a visiting

Tel Aviv physician, Dr. Confino,
who became interested in them
and contacted the Association for
Righteous Converts in Jerusalem.
The Association sent its president,
Dr. Ben Zeev, to Palma. He as-
sured himself of their direct des-
cent from pre-Inquisition Jews and
their wish to emigrate to Israel.
The association contacted the
Jewish Agency which arranged for
transport and housing. Campos
Garcia, another member of the
group, told the JTA that members
of the group believed there are
more than 500,000 conscious Mar-
ranos in Spain today and most of
them wish to emigrate to Israel.
"We are only the first wave of a
huge movement."

Israel Court Acts

z ; Ta- tio w ••

on Rabbinate Stand
Against Falasha,

JERUSALEM (JTA) — T h e
Israel Supreme Court ordered the
Chief Rabbinate and the Jerusalem
Religious Council to show cause
for their refusal to register a mar-
riage contracted by a Falasha Jew
in Israel.
The high court also issued • an
order to the two agencies to show
cause why arrangements should
not be made to allow the Falasha
Jew to have a legal wedding cere-
niony under state rabbinical aus-
pices.
The applicant became married
in a private ceremony when the
rabbinate, which has exclusive
jurisdiction over marriages and
divorces of Jews in Israel, refused
to perform the ceremony.
The issue stems from the reluc-
tance of Israel's rabbinate to ac-
cept the claim of the Falashas as
full members of the Jewish com-
munity. The Falashas, living in
Ethiopia, claim they are circum-
cised and of Jewish descent.

nounced here Tuesday.-
During the month, a spokesman

for the service said, - 35,000 job
seekers had registered, the aver-
age number of unemployed was
5,170 per day. Without citing com-

parative figures, the spokesman
said the April totals represented a
sharp rise over the corresponding
figures for March, as well as an
increase over the corresponding
period in 1965.
Last week, some 500 unemployed
persons from the development
town of Kiryat Simone demon-
strated in front of the Knesset,
Israel's parliament, voicing de-
znands for the establishment of
industrial plants in their region
and a hospital and other health
facilities.
Earlier, the demonstrators as-
sembled in front of the prime min-
ister's office.
