ing on their elassifications.

K. K. K. Eruption

From South Carolina last week
came the sorry details of a re-
newed outburst Of lawleSsness by
the Ku Klux Khan. The hooded
mobsters, it would seem, took
dislike to a farmer, so they fog
ged him and took his two sons for
a ride" in the course of which
one of the sons was badly mauled.
Not so m a ny months ago
another xxx. demonstration,
also in South Carolina ended in
the death Of a policeman who was
wearing his XXX. robe over his
police uniform.
Similar manifestations of re-
newed Khan activities have been
reported as well in Georgia. All
of which justifies the conclusion
that a number of the Southern
States still serve as hot-beds for
these sinister forces. We are told
that the F.B.I. and other Federal
law enforcement agencies are
graphing with this problem.
Evidently these governmental
agencies have not been able to
get to the root of this evil. Or
Is that too much to expect?

Philadelphia Jew
Gives $780, 900 for
School in Israel

PHILADELPHIA, - (JTA) -
A gift of $5O0,OOO for the erection
of a Histadrut Trade School in
Israel was announced here by the
National Committee for Labor
Israel. The gift was made by 79-
year-old Leon Holtz and his wife,
who have been leading a simple
life here for many years and have
never given any indication of
wealth. Mr.. Ho1tz, who was born
and raised in Russia, has been in
the real estate business since
coming to Philadelphia so years
ago. He still conducts the business
from his "office"-an old-fash-
Toned roll-top desk in the kitchen
Of his two-story row house in
West Philadelphia.
The school will be known as
the Leon and Florence Holtz
Trade School and will be equip
ped to accommodate 200 students.
The Jewish National Fund will
provide about six acres of land
in the Tel Aviv area. A forest
dedicated to the Holtzs' will also
be planted. Representatives of in
terested Israel institutions, as well
as relatives, attended an agree
ment-signing ceremony.
