Rhodesian Zionists Weigh Dismal Future
By ARTHUR KENIGSBERG
NU Way News and Press Agency
SALISBURY — What
might well be the last
Zionist Conference in
Rhodesia as we know it to-
day, took place in Salisbury
during the weekend of May
20-21.
The uncertainty of the
political future, coupled
with the rise of pro-Arab
feelings, espeically among
the black University of
Rhodesia students, as well
as diminishing Jewish
population, hung like a
dark cloud over the confer-
ence.
However, the determina-
tion of the Central African
Zionist Organization dele-
gates as a whole to continue
and increase the work for
Israel was the one en-
thusiastic and bright tone of
the conference.
Prof. Marcus Arkin,
- brought greetings from
the South African Zionist
Federation and delivered
two addresses to the con-
ference. One on the open-
ing night, "The Problems
and Prospects of Zionists
in Southern Africa" and
next day a masterly ex-
position of the Middle
East, after Sadat's visit.

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
An exhibition of Nazi pap-
ers and artifacts document-
ing the persecution of the
Jews has been mounted by
the National Archives in its
Pennsylvania Avenue
lobby. All of the records to
be shown in the exhibit
which will continue during
the summer were entered as
evidence in war crimes
trials.
They span eight years,
from 1938 through 1945,
and provide documentation
of what the Nazis termed
"the final solution" — the
extermination of the Jews
in much of Europe.
Dr. James B. Rhoads, ar-
chivist of the United States,
explained that the National
Archives is putting on this
exhibition "because of the
unusual amount of interest
engendered by the recent
NBC-TV 'Holocaust'
series."
