Chief 'Rabbi Khadourie of Iraq Dies;
Gov't Guarded His Public Statements
LONDON (JTA) - Chief Rabbi
Sassoon Khadourie of Iraq died in
Baghdad Monday at age 91, ac-
cording to information reaching
here.
He was the spiritual leader of a
Jewish community that had dwinl

Max Lowenthal,
1950 FBI Critic
NEW YORK-Max Lowenthal, a
local attorney who served congres-
sional committees in the 1930s-40s
and who wrote a criticism of the
FBI in 1950, died here at age 83.
Because of his book, "The Fed-
eral Bureau of Investigation" Low-
enthal was ordered before the
H o u s e Un-American Activities
Committee in 1950 and was called
a "menace to the best interests of
America" by Michigan Republican
Representative George A. Dondero.
In a New York Times book re-
view, Lowenthal's book was called
the result of "immense research
and careful documentation . . . al-
most for the first time . . . it
pulled aside the self-righteous
cloak in which the FBI has
wrapped itself."
Lowenthal was a personal friend
of President Harry S Truman.
the 23 years since the establish-
ment of Israel.
Khadourie was born in Baghdad
and served as chief rabbi of Iraq
since 1932. In recent years he had
spoken out in defense of the Baath-
ist regime and against Zionism,
claiming that discriminatory treat-
ment of Iraqi Jews ended when
the present regime took office.
But •is public statements were
made under the watchful eyes
of Iraqi officials who provided
Western newsmen with approved
translations.
The feeling among knowledgable
observers was that the aged rabbi
was being cruelly exploited by
Iraqi authorities for propaganda
purposes.
In his last statement to the press
on April 23, he denounced "Zionist
and imperialist propaganda direct-
ed against Iraq."
