French Group Opens Office Paris (JTA) — France's Con- sistoire, the state- recog- nized organization catering to the religious needs of French Jews, has opened its new $8.5 million offices. The new seven-story building was inaugurated in a ceremony attended by Charles Pasqua, French minister of interior, Jean- Pierre Bansard, president of the Consistorie, and Joseph Sitruk, France's chief rabbi. Mr. Bansard, who was elected president of the Con- sistoire one year ago, has been criticized within the Jewish community for devoting such a large budget to relocating the Consistoire while Jewish religious schools were in deep finan- cial trouble due to a reces- sion.
