over period of several years.
In answering other questions by
Mr.. Tavenner, Mr.. Rodman re-
,vealed a, varied background. He
said he was born in Jaffa, Pales-
tine, November IL, 1898. and was
naturalized in New Brunswick,
N. j., in 1927.
After graduating from Colum-
bia University in 1923. he told the
committee, he entered social work
and was an attache of the Young
Mems Hebrew Association until
1892, working in Chattanooga,
Montreal and Perth Amboy. N. j.
Then, he said, he went to Russia
and worked as a newspaper cor
respondent for six years. He said
he represented Newsweek, Busi-
ness Week and the News Chron-
icle. Exchange Telegraph and The
Observer, all of London.

did the London Observer COM
plain to you that your articles
were too pro-Soviet in tone?" Mr..
Tavenner asked.
Mr.. Rodman said there had been
no complaint, but that he had
talked with the editor of the pa
per, who had mentioned receiving
comments of that sort from an
other member of the staff. Mr..
Rodman said he and the editor
had agreed that virtually every
thing. printed or said amounts to
"propagandizing'' of sort.
Mr.. Rodman said that after re-
turning to the United States he
lived in New York City a while and
then moved to Washington. For
a year during World War II, he
continued, he was employed by
UNRRA lin charge of displaced
persons activities in Yugoslavia. "
He said he was sent to Cairo on
this project, but never got to
Yugoslavia, because Marshal Tito
would not let UNRRA officials into
the country, except for few OBJ
servers
Wary of Business Publicity.
When Mr.. Tavenner began ask
ing Mr.. Rodman about his present
business dealings, Mr.. Rodman
pleaded with the committee to let
him answer in a closed session.
He said he feared "a smear" by
newspapers and said to discuss his
business matters in public would
be Furnishing mo oy publicity"

respond learn nothing to help

of them are thrown back two

Although virtually all Of these

"The VA wants to see that no
veteran is deprived of the educa-

Certainly, no extensive unem-

There's something badly wrong
with a situation which sends
thousands of additional veterans
into schools long after the vast
majority have had opportunity to
readjust themselves to civilian

be held in trust for those who

The Opening Of The
Israeli Parliament

The opening of the first Parn-
ament of Israeli was one OF the
most impressive ceremonies OF
this historic year, and rightly SO.
It represented the elimination OF
series of events which brought
about not only the establishment,
but also the political solidifica-
ton of the Jewish State in a re-
markably short period of time.
The opening, like most other
State ceremonies of Israel, was
used as an occasion to stress the
desire of the Jewish State for
peace with its Arab neighbors,
peace not only on the battle
fields, but also in every day life.
The opening address by Presi-
dent Chain Weizmann was a
moving historic document which
amply proved that the aged lead
err is not a mere figure-head, but
one of the moulderS of the char
acter of the new State. The cere-
mony left a feeling with liberal
Jewish people the world over
that the Jewish State is in the
safe hands of peace living men
with sane minds and progressive
liberal ideas.
In New York the opening of
Parliament was celebrated by
one of the most enthusiastic
gatherings this city, easily given
to enthusiasm, has seldom seen.
The meeting was sponsored by
the National Jewish Labor AL
lance, the strongest body of the
Labor Zionist movement. and it
was in keeping with the spirit
and mood that prevailed in Jer-
usalem. Saint Nicholas arena
where the celebration was held,
takes in 5000 people. Twice that
number came to participate in
the ceremony and could not be
admitted and they listened to the
speeches in surging crowds out
side the hall. This, probably
more than the many impressive
speeches inside, reflected the
mood and the temper of the bulk
of Jewish people the world over
on this solemn occasion.
