Mr. Blaustein, who founded the American Oil Co. in 1910 and guided its development from a small localized company to one of the giants of the American Petro- leum industry, served as president of the American Jewish Commit- tee from-1949 to 1954 and was an honorary president of the organ- ization at the time of his death. He was known nationally and internationally as an adviser and diplomatic trouble shooter for five American presidents and an ad- Israel. JACOB BLAUSTEIN MORRIS J.

WANDER AcImowledges with grate- ful appreciation the many kind expressions of sym- pathy extended by rela- tives and friends during the family's recent be-• reavement. In 1955, President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed him a regu- lar member of the United States delegation to the United Nations. Mr. Blaustein was at home in world diplomatic circles. In 1945, he helped talk Soviet Foreign Minister Vyacheslav Molotov into accepting the human rights sr- tides of the UN Charter, then in its conceptual stages in San Francisco. In 1948 he was one of the Jewish leaders who con- vinced David Ben-Guidon to ac- cept the UN plan for the parti- tion of Palestine which led to the creation of the state of Is- raeL Later, he negotiated with West German Chancellor Konrad Ad- enauer for the payment of more than $10,000,000,000 in reparations to the surviving victims of Nazism.

In Memory of Our Dear Beloved Sister Who passed away Nov. 17, 1968 IIAAXINE F. ZACK His diplomatic career began in 1945 when President Franklin D Roosevelt asked him to attend the formative meetings of the UN in San Francisco. It was in his relations with Israel leaders that Mr. Blaustein helped formulate- the understanding that while American Jews are deeply concerned with the welfare and support of Israel, they owe politi- cal allegiance only to the United States. That understanding, which suc- cessive Israeli premiers subscribed to, was necessitated by accusations of dual loyalty against pro-Israel American life. Born in Baltimore, the son of a Lithuanian immigrant who worked briefly as an oil job- ber, he and his father founded American 0il which consisted of the two men and a horse-drawn tank wagon. The tiny firm grew quickly thanks to numerous innovations. It opened the first drive-in gaso- line station in the U.S. and later blended the first anti-knock gaso- line. It was the Blanstein gaso- line, Amoco, that powered Charles A. Lindberg's historic solo flight to Paris in 1927. Mr. Bluetein during his business career owned a fleet of tankers, oil wells in Texas and Louisiana and several manufacturing com- panies. He had vast real estate holdings in Baltimore, San Diego, Dallas and Los Angeles and was a controlling stockholder of the Union Trust Co. of Baltimore. Alexander Winogradow, Research Chemist, 83 NEW YORK — Dr. Alexander Winogradow, research and consult- ing chemist who in 1937 originated the art of "Inlonee," similar to the Oriental art of wire-glazed pot- tery, died last Saturday at age 83. A native of Russia and graduate of physical chemistry from the University of Freiberg, Germany, Dr. Winogradow came to the U.S. in 1924. Another research develop- ment which he has been credited is an industrial process for making fire-resistant wood. Edith Ilutovich, Wife of Zionist Leader, 55 NEW YORK — Mrs. Edith Iluto- vich, wife of Leon Ilutovich, ex- ecutive director of the Zionist Organization of America, died Sun- day at age 55. Born in Berlin, she went to Is- rael in the early 1930s where she lived until 1946. In 1946 and 1947 she directed the emigration of in- ternees from Bergen-Belsen to Palestine and other countries.
