French To Ban
Religion Symbols

gled Jewish children out of the ghetto.
She then placed them in Polish homes
and in orphanages.

Paris/JTA — Wearing religious
insignia in French schools soon will
become illegal, according to media
reports.
The Europe 1 radio station reported
Nov. 5 that both French President
Jacques Chirac and Prime Minister
Jean-Pierre Raffarin now support legis-
lation that will be "very strict."
Leading left- and right-wing politi-
cians have recently called for a law
banning the wearing of crosses,
yarmulkes and Muslim scarves in state
schools.
A presidential commission set up
earlier this year to examine the secular
nature of the French state now appears
almost certain to recommend the leg-
islation in its final report next month.
Jewish leaders are backing the pro-
posed legislation.

Arafat Controls
The Money

Jerusalem/JTA — Some $34 million
of the Palestinian Authority's budget is
managed solely by Yasser Arafat, the
International Monetary Fund has
found.
The Palestinian Authority president
transfers the money to undefined
"organizations" and "individuals" who
cannot be traced, Ha'aretz reported.
The report says that from 1995 to
2000, some $900 million in P.A.
money "disappeared."
The report also puts the P.A.'s secu-
rity services at 56,128 men, almost
20,000 more than the number allowed
under the Oslo Accords.
News of the IMF report comes after
CBS' 60 Minutes reported that Arafat
has diverted $800 million in aid
money for the Palestinian Authority to
a private account for his family in
Paris.

Poland Honors
Rescuer Of Kids

New York/JTA — The Polish govern-
ment honored a woman who smug-
gled 2,500 children out of the Warsaw
Ghetto.
Irena Sendler, 93, received Poland's
highest honor, the Order of the White
Eagle, for her efforts.
During the war, she posed as a nurse
treating Jews for typhoid and smug-

New York/JTA — The U.S. Naval
Academy is building a Jewish chapel.
The Uriah P. Levy Center and
Chapel is named after the 19th centu-
ry American Jewish naval officer. The
center is expected to cost $12.8 mil-
lion and include classrooms and a
library, in addition to the synagogue.
The Air Force and Army academies
already have synagogues.

Zyklon B Firm
Files For Bankruptcy

New York/JTA — The company that
produced the gas used at Nazi
Germany death camps has filed for
bankruptcy.
During World War II, an IG Farben
subsidiary produced Zyklon B gas,
which was used in Nazi gas chambers.
The pre-World War II chemical com-
pany also built a plant on the outskirts
of the Germany's Auschwitz concen-
tration camp in Poland to produce
artificial rubber and synthetic gasoline,
mostly using slave laborers from
Auschwitz.

Palestine Meeting
At OSU Is Quiet

Columbus/JTA — After months of
anticipation and a weekend of Jewish
counter-activism, a national pro-
Palestinian conference last weekend
passed without too much fanfare.
Jewish activists from as far away as
Milwaukee and New York streamed to
Ohio State Univeristy in Columbus to
protest the Palestinian event, while
members of the local Jewish commu-
nity urged them to keep a low profile.
Nearly 200 Israel supporters from
across the United States, more than
half of them from Cleveland, joined in
chants, songs and prayers outside the
building where the pro-Palestinian
conference was held.
Inside, Palestinian supporters dif-
fered on whether it was okay to sup-
port suicide bombings and other ter-
rorist attacks against Israelis.
The conference's keynote speaker
was Adam Shapiro, a Jew who has
