ropean Association of Hotel

HIAS Search, Location Unit
Locates Missing, Deceased Kin

NEW YORK—During the
course of a year HIAS
Search and Location han-
dles 2,000 - 3,000 requests
from Jews throughout the
world to locate friends and
relatives, sometimes in-
volving separations of up to
half a century.
Often working with. mere
shreds of information, the
multi-lingual staff has been
able to locate about two-
thirds of the missing rela-
tives during each of the last
few years.
HIAS Search and Loca-
tion works through a net-
work of international con-
tacts established over
nearly a century of rescue
and resettlement work. , On
the average, it takes about
a year to make a con-
nection, particularly if the
separation has been a long
one.
If the missing relative is
believed to be in the U.S.,
the first step is a check
through Central Files at
HIAS. The case history of
every refugee brought to
this country with HIAS'
help since 1948 is housed
here. Earlier records are
kept at YIVO, the Jewish
historical and research or-
ganization. Search and Lo-
cation also runs notices in
the Yiddish and Anglo-Jew-
ish press across the country
and the German-language
Aufbau. Cooperation with
Jewish family services and
federations nationwide is

also part of the procedure.
If an American is seeking
relatives in the Soviet
Union, the information is
sent to HIAS, Geneva.
From there it is trans-
mitted to the International
Red Cross which carries
out the search in Russia. In
60 other countries, Search
and Location works closely
with HIAS offices and coop-
erating agencies.
HIAS Search and Loca-
tion is frequently ap-
proached about men and

persons with low incomes-
knkow what it is to be in
need.
So when Bnai Brith Inter-
national issued an appeal
for funds to ,pay for the
damage inflicted by a
group of Hanafi Muslim ter- -
rorists who seized its head-
quarters building last
March, they responded with
their hearts and pock-
etbooks.
In an emotional meeting
conducted at their apart-
ment house, scores of resi-
dents filled envelopes with
nickels, dimes, quarters
and dollar bills to "demon-
strate their compassion in a
tangible form."

Japan Karate Meet Bars Israel Team

TEL AVIV (JTA)—The
Japanese Ambassador, Ich-
iko Katakami, expressed
profound regrets over the
last-minute exclusion of an
Israeli team from a karate
tournament in Tokyo where
the Israelis had been in-
vited by the Japanese Ka-
rate Federation.
Federation
spokesmen
made no secret of the fact
that they were under se-
vere pressure from the six
Arab countries participat-

ing in the tournament to
keep the Israelis out.
Katakami stressed that
the Karate Federation is a
non-governmental organiza-
tion and that its action did
not represent the attitude of
the Japanese government.
The Israeli team may sue
for damages and the costs
incurred by their trip to
Japan and training ex-
penses.

' PHILADELPHIA

(JTA)—The 189th General
Assembly of the United
Presbyterian Church decisi-
vely defeated a resolution
calling on the United States
to recognize the Palestine
Liberation Organization and
adopted, instead, a minor-
ity resolution proposed
from the Assembly floor
urging the U.S. "to reaff-
irm its commitments to Is-
rael." N
The resolution, supported
by a majority of the 2,000
delegates also called for
"peace negotiations in a
manner consistent with the
principles of the United Na-
tions Security Council Reso-
lution 242."

NEW YORK (JTA)—Pre-
mier Menahem Begin said
he had "decided to sit at
the negotiating table with
one purpose" in mind, that
of achieving peace, accord-

of Israel. The Chief Rabbi

women murdered during
World War II. A family
may want to know where
their loved ones died and
when. In this case the de-
partment works with re-
ports in German from the
International Tracing Serv-
ice. Often people know that
relatives left Europe—with
destination a mystery. The
HIAS office in Israel has
been instrumental in some
of these cases.
Young people often con-
tact HIAS out of curiosity
about their "roots." And
there are the elderly—those
who once had hundreds of
relatives in Eastern Europe
and now have no one.
HIAS never charges a fee
for the services provided by
the Search and Location De-
partment.
The Search and Location
Department may be con-
tacted by writing to HIAS,
200 Park Ave., S., New
York, N.Y. 10003, or by call-
ing (212) 674-6800.

Chile Changes ,
Yom Kippur
Date of Exam

WASHINGTON (JTA)—
The Ministry of Education
of the Chilean government
and the rector of the state
university in Chile have ar-
ranged alternate dates for
the examination of univer-
sity admissions this year in
Chile because the scheduled
date falls on Yom Kippur.
No examinations will be
given on that day.
Rabbi Seymour Siegel, of
the Georgetown University
faculty, reported that Rabbi
Angel Kreiman of Santiago,
Chile's Chief Rabbi, inter-
vened with the Chilean au-
thorities to arrange the
change.
Kreiman, he said, has
been serving in Chile for
five years and conducts a
full program of religious
and educational activities,
including a summer camp,
Hebrew schools and social
meetings.

Defamation League of Bnai
Brith welcomed the final
settlement of a class action

plicants. It was approved re-
cently in the Federal South-
