HENRY

BY
World-Zionist Congress are: .
1. The aliya movement will be
the framework for prospective
olim among the Jews 'in the Dia-
spora.
2. Believing that large-scale
aliya from the West can be
achieved, this Congress recog-
nizes that:
(a) The major purpose of the
aliya movement is to unite and
organize individuals and groups
who desire to go on aliya, in
order to enable them to give prac-
tical expression to their desire.
The executive of the World Zion-
ist Organization, the territorial and
other Zionist organizations and
the shlihim of all departments
working in the Diaspora shall ex-
tend all assistance towards this
end.
(b) It shall be the duty of the
individual aliya groups, while still
in the Diaspora, to promote aliya
on a personal basis among the
still uncommitted so that aliya be-
comes their individual decision.
(c) Shlihim shall be provided
specifically to work with the aliya
movements. They shall be chosen
for their ability and suitability —
without reference to political affil-
iation—and preferably shall be

GENEVA — An official of West
Germany's Jewish community
Tuesday disputed a Bonn rabbi's
pessimistic estimate of the future
of Jews in that country.
Dr. Hendryk van Damm, general
secretary of the Central Council
of Jews in Germany, told the Jew-
ish Telegraphic Agency that Dr.
Bernard Farkas, rabbi of Bonn and
Aachen, erred when he said that
there were only 26,000 Jews left
in Germany, more than half of
whom are past 50 years of age.
Dr. Farkas made his remarks in
a report to the biennial convention
of the World Council of Synagogues
in London. Dr. Van Damm is at-
tending the Conference of Jewish
Organizations here. He said that
"The average age of Jews in Ger-
many during the last 10 years
remains constant — under 46."
He said that there were 27,000
Jews affiliated with various com-
munities in West Germany, but
there were "others who were not
affiliated yet remained Jews ana
therefore must be counted as
such." Dr. Van Damm said that
Dr. Farkas had come to West Ger-
many from Czechoslovakia a few
years ago and was not a member
of the presidium of the Union of
Rabbis of the West German Fe-
deral Republic.
