JSSA, stressed that election
of Jones was "not predicated
in any sense" on the HWC's
policy.

Suit Charges Paper
Rejected Ad Against
Intermarriage

NEW YORK — A suit was
brought in Federal Court in
Brooklyn to enjoin Newsday
from refusing to accept an
advertisement that condemn-
ed intermarriage as "sui-
cide, national and personal."
The complaint against the
Long Island newspaper was
filed by the Committee for
the Furtherance of Jewish
Education (Orthodox), which
charged Newsday with hav-
ing violated the group's con-
stitutional rights of freedom
of speech and religion.
According to the complaint,
Newsday rejected publica-
tion of the ad Feb. 1. But
the New York Times and the
New York Post printed it.
Rabbi Jacob J. Hecht, ex-
ecutive vice president of the
committee, called Newsday's
action a denial of freedom
of speech and the freedom of
the press and an abridge-
ment of its right "to prose-
lytize, a basic tenet of the
Jewish faith."
The committee demanded
that the newspaper's prefer.
ential mailing rate treatment
be vacated and that the post
office be enjoined from al-
lowing the newspaper to use
the mails. It also asked
$20,000 in compensatory dam-
ages.
A spokesman for Newsday
said the paper had not re-
fused the ad but that it had
been withdrawn by the com-
plainant after Newsday
"made, some recommenda-
tions About the content."

Board of Deputies
to Join With WJC

LONDON ,(JTA) — The
Board of Deputies of British
Jews, representative body of
British Jewry founded here
in 1760, will shortly affiliate
with the World Jewish Con-
gress as a "participant mem-
ber" with complete auton-
omy.
A recommendation to that
effect will be placed before
the outgoing executive of the
board at its final meeting
April 29.
The move will bring to an
end a long-standing argu-
ment that has been going on
since the World Jewish Con-
gress was established in 1936.
The Board of Deputies for
many years considered it-
self dedicated to Zion and
the Jewish people, but or-
ganizationally apart.

Iraqi Officials
Claim Jews OK

LONDON (JTA) — Two
officials of the Iraqi office
here contended that "the
situation of Iraqi Jews could
not be better."
That was their reply to a
delegation of the Inter-Uni-
versity Jewish Federation

fate of 10 imprisoned Jews,
unheard from for months and
believed to have been execut-
ed or murdered in prison.

London. The two officials,
one of them the head of the
office, denied the arrests and
described the report as "al-
legations."
He cited the Iraqi minister
of information as the source
of evidence that Iraqi Jews
are well off. He refused to
accept a letter and told the
callers to send it directly to
the Baghdad government.

ence was to allow American
physicians to view some first-
class medical practice in an-
other land. Dr. Hoffman re-
ceived prolonged applause
when he said, addressing
himself to the hosts: "Be-
cause of the warm welcome
you have given us, the tre-
mendous response to our
visit, I hope you will let us
come again."
