POSITIVE JEWISH HERITAGE Veterans I rge arse 3 to Outlaw Nazi Party LONDON, Ont. (JTA) — The Royal Canadian Legion, a veterans group open to all Canadian war veterans, petitioned the Canadian government and all provinces and municipalities to ban the Canadian National Socialist party. The reso- lution noted that the Canadian Nazis had declared publicly "that the city of London is to become a stronghold of the party in Canada," and declared that "the expressed aims and objectives" of the small Canadian Nazi group "are in di- rect conflict with the democratic principles without which no free nation can endure." The resolution to the federal and local governments urged them =`to act in concert to declare the activ- ities of the Canadian National So- cialist party as seditious and that the continued existence of the party be forbidden and that dis- semination of its scurrilous and treasonable utterances and publica- tions be banned."

N.Y. —,A United Nations economic commit- tee was asked Tuesday to drop Israel from case studies being made on the transfer of technology from developed countries to coun- tries still in the developing stage. Ibrahim Suleiman of Libya, who made the request, contended that Israel does not rightly fall into the category of developing nations be- cause it does not suffer from a lack of technological knowhow or capital. He said Israel was the recipient of modern technology and capital through immigration, its ethnic links with advanced nations and gifts in foreign exchange. Suleiman thought that the case studies in Mexico and Brazil, the two o t h e r countries concerned, should continue. He was supported by Ali. Mounir of Morocco, who said he had "the strongest reserva- tions" about the study on Israel and recommended that the corn- , mittee drop it. Clarence Blau of the United States said that the rep- resentatives of Libya and Morocco had made "good points" on the choice of countries in which to carry out the studies. He made no mention of Israel. Buhmrs. E. E. Kodikara of the Philippines thought her country 1v.ould benefit from all three case studies, including the one in Israel, even though conditions in these countries were not necessarily ap- plicable to the Philippines. The economic committee is an agency of the United Nations Economic and Social Council. Larry z,lern .

Corrections which had been made in proof could not be made by the print- ers in time. The $5,668,802 total quoted for the 1967 campaign should not have included donations to the Israel Emergency Fund, con- trary to what the figures indi- cated. In addition, the columns of figures representing 1967 and 1968 pledges sported dollar signs where there should have been none. Also the Bialik poem "To Ahad Ha'am," which should have given credit to the Tarbut Foun- dation, carried no credit at all. There were a few headlines- , that were dillies, which we'd rather not repeat. Most readers and advertisers have been very understanding, however, and hundreds of persons called on Friday to express their concern. All in all, we felt quite flat- tered that folks care about us, and we still consider ourselves lucky to have put out the paper at all, even a day late. Any other errors our readers may find can remain "entre nous"—just between us. Merely remember that in the future, this issue may be considered a collector's item. e- BR 2-2470 LI 8-4119 TE 4-4440 Jewish News Stopped Cold by Fire; Publishes Day Late for First Time The dauntless Jewish News, printing _uninterruptedly for 26 years, was daunted last week by a fire in the print shop. For the first time in. its history, the paper was delivered a day late. The staff (which made history of sorts three years ago when it hurdled gigantic snow drifts to get out the paper) had already left Post Printing Thursday when fire broke out in the press room, destroying m a chine s which print the paper. Metal plates were saved in time so they could be sent over to the Detroit American Publish- ing Co. (Polish Daily News) for printing. The interruption and haste which the paper was trans- ferred to the other plant resulted in some regrettable errors. Herbert Styles, president of Post Printing, as well as the mailing staff headed by- Bill Banks, were credited with quick action assuring publication of The Jewish News. * * * The fire took its toll in accuracy.
