Friedman, executive chairman of the United Jewish Appeal, told the annual confer- ence. "Our philanthropic dollars will be used as always to pay for the great immigrant absorption pro--; grams, including health and wel- fare and higher education an housing and farming and youth care and much, much more," he said. Rabbi Friedman said that for the Israelis, the "path ahead is clear — war along the Suez Canal. terrorism along the Jordan River, danger of economic collapse — and superhuman effort to absorb , new immigrants into the fabric of Israeli society at the same time." He also called strong world sympathy for Russian Jewry "a part of that totality of concern which unites all Jews in one tight- ly-linked brotherhood." He noted that in 1970, the Joint Distribution Committee, a UJA constituent. would spend $24,000,000 on aid to needy Jews outside the United States and Israel. He said that money would assist more than 300,000 people in such areas of life as care of the aged and sick, children's homes and feeding programs. Former Vice President Hubert Humphrey told the Jewish leaders that the Middle East crisis em- bodied the risk of large-scale atomic war and that action was urgently needed to bring an end to clashes that could lead to large- scale warfare, which he called "too great a risk in these days of atomic warfare." He added that the future of Is- 1 rael was "important to all demo- cratically oriented and freedom ' Pravda, Izvestia Defend Moscow on Soviet Jewry Issue I.ONDON (JTA) — The two lead- ing Soviet newspapers have taken issue with critics of Russia's treat- ment of its Jewish citizens. Grigori Plotkin, writing in the Communist Party organ Pravda, claims that anti-Semitism was eliminated in the Soviet Union 52 years ago in the October Revolu- tion. Izvestia, the government news- paper, said that Soviet policy per- mitted Jews to reunite with rela- tive's abroad although it virtually ruled out emigration by other Jews or Soviet citizens generally. The articles in both news- papers replied to charges made by Israel and by Jews in other countries that the Kremlin de- liberately suppresses Jewish cul- tural and religious life in the USSR in violation of the Soviet constitution. - In principle, Soviet law decides When the Holocaust -was in full swing, Graebe was a direc- tor of a German construction company. In this capacity, he saw to it that Jewish employes escaped arrest by the N a zi S. Once, when 50 Jews from his district were under arrest, Graebe convinced the Gestapo to release them from the huts in which Jews being sent to death camps were housed. Gra- ebe was the only German to testify at the Nuremberg trials. Now a resident of San Fran- cisco, he continues to hunt down Nazis still at large. Shortly after the Nazis occupied France, Dr. Hautval, then a young psychiatrist, was arrested for traveling without proper docu- ments and sent to a French prison. After protesting the treatment of Jewish prisoners there, she was transferred to Auschwitz. Four times at Auschwitz, Dr. Hautval was ordered to conduct "medical" experiments on Jewish inmates. Four times she refused. In an attempt to persuade her, a Nazi doctor asked: "Don't you know that there are people differ- ent from us?" Dr. Hautval replied: "Yes I do, and you are the first among them." On another occasion, she de- clared: "No one of us will leave this place alive, but so long as we are alive, let us behave like human beings." When the Nazis occupied Hol- land, Dr. Sandberg, then director of Amsterdam's City Museum, helped print thousands of forgad identification cards and distribute them to Jews who could then pass as Aryans. Despite the excellent forgeries, he and his colleagues realized that the cards could still be checked against the files in the Nazi Registry Office. They there- fore formed a small band and, in a daring raid, blew up the office and destroyed the files. Of the 22 who launched the attack, only Dr. Sandberg and one colleague es- caped arrest and execution by the Nazis.
