An Israeli delegation, led by Dr. Abba Gefen, di- rector of cultural rela- tions at the Foreign Ministry, called for the introduction of a Hebrew studies course at the pre- stigious London School of Economics, which would embrace a wide range of Israeli subjects, as well as the Hebrew langugage. The British team, in- cluding representatives of the Foreign Office and the British Council said it would consider the re- quest for financial assis- tance in establishing more Hebrew teaching posts. Britain also promised assistance in mounting an Israeli exhibition on "The Old Testament in World Music" this month at Lon- don's Royal Festival Hall. The exhibition, or- ganized by Dr. Moshe Gorali, director of the Haifa Music Museum, has been on tour in Italy where it attracted large crowds. The two countries also agreed to encourage joint research projects into the history of Britain's Jewish community and are considering a joint symposium of the histori- cal aspects of the Balfour Declaration on the occa- sion of the declaration's 60th anniversary in November. The British side ex- pressed regret that the post of scientific attache at the Israeli Embassy here has been discon- tinued. Under another clause of the new agreement each side may draw the other's attention to the use - school textbooks contai.. ing historical misre0=-- resentations.

Aiding Minorities JTA News Service Has Anniversary NEW YORK (JTA) — . The Jewish Telegraphic Agency was established Feb. 6, 1917 in The Hague (Holland) by Jacob Landau with the help of Jacques Buchenholtz, Sylvain Birnbaum, Syl-. vain Russ and Elias - Chanania.' It was known then as the Joodsch Corre- spondenti-e Bureau and represented the first fort to organize worldwide Jewish news" service. The purpose was to prepare world public opinion for an intelligent handling of the Jewish problem at the Versailles Peace Conference. After World War I the agency was re-estab- lished in London in 1920. The headquarters of the JTA were established in New York in 1921. The agency was reincorpo- rated in 1936 to give for- mal status to its com- munal, non-profit charac- ter as an instrument of the Jewish people.
