House Foreign Affairs
Committee Hears
Jewish Leaders On
Aid To Israel

WASHINGTON, (JTA) - Jew
ish leaders this week testified be-
fore the House Foreign Affairs
Committee presenting their views

Louis Lipsky, chairman of the
American Zionist Council, recall
led that the Government of Is
rael formally requested, in March
of this year, a grant-in-aid of
$150,000,000 to enable it to over
come the extraordinary economic
problems resulting from its i'm
migration program, and that sub
sequently bills were introduced
into the House and Senate author
izing a grant in that amount.

made by Broadway columnist

In Washington, this week, Is

ers have decided against taking
effective action on Israel's request
for $l.500.000.000 as a minimum
PREPARATIONS claim against Ger
many. They are too busy with the
expedient remilitarization of Ger
many.
Israel's claim was on behalf of
the Jewish victims of the Nazis.
At this writing the State Depart
ment has not even bothered to go
through the motions of asking
Germany to pay up despite the
fact that the Israel note was SUBJ
mitted last March.
The Israel Government urgent
lY requested that the occupying
powers should not hand over full
powers to any German Govern
ment without express Teserva-
tons being made for payment Of
separations to Israel" The Ger
mans are getting more power
daily. The American reply to Is
rael seems to have been given in
President Humans message to
Congress which paved the way
for German independence.
The Defense Department is
very anxious for smooth coopera-
ton with Germany and the mo-
Utilization of German troops as
soon as this can be achieved.
Representatives of our govern
ment have been talking with Nazi
General Heinz Guderian who was
Acting Chief of Staff of Hitler's
army. Gen. Guderian has said that
reports of gas chambers were
''atrocity stories against the Ger
mans, set afloat with Jewish
thoroughness." While we are busy
making arrangements with such
generals it is naturally difficult
for us to discuss the legal and
moral background of the Jewish
PREPARATIONS claim.
Washington has to make a
choice between German reaction
aries and the rest of Europe. The
rest of Europe is being driven
closer to Communism because Of
our support of the nation which
so recently oppressed a great
number of people. President Tru-
man has received pitiful letters
from all over Europe. These let
tiers plead against our policy OF
rebuilding German militarism. It
Germany is to be used to stop
Communism. they say. then we
might find that the cure will be-
come more deadly than the sick
ness.
The Belgian Resistance Move
ment wrote the President that
1.-THE u. S., to which went our
confidence, our admiration and
our gratitude in those hours OF
distress, should know that nobody
can sue for the friendship OF Ger
many and its accomplices without
losing ours; they will understand
this when they remember the
Recommendation which they possess
about the German atrocities in
Europe and of which the marks
have been burnt in our flesh and
minds, never to be effaced."
