GA Raises SAL 400 In First Week

About 100 men of Tucson pied
ged S41,400 at the Advance Gifts
CJA Dinner Tuesday night at Ell
Rio Country Club, after listening
to speech by Rabbi Philip Bern
stein. This was a 1870 increase
over the gifts these men made
last year.
Rabbi Bernstein, author of
"What the Jews Believe, told the
group that the current Russian
anti-Semitic wave, was a revival
of the age-old technique of using
the Jews as a Scape-goat for un-
satisfactory internal conditions in
the Soviet Union. The new policy
is also a play for German and
Arab support, according to Bern.
stein, who declared that surveys
in Europe prove that German an
ti-Semitism wasn't killed by the
Allied victory, and that the Arab
landowners naturally dislike the
new power in the Near East-Is'
rael.
The meeting was opened by
Sidney Gilberg, 1858 CJA Chair
man, who turned the microphor1e
over to Arthur Grunewald, Ad-
vance Gifts Chairman, who start
ed the calling of contributions.
Others who made short speeches
and accepted gifts were Stanley
Hatcher and Edward E. Smotkin,
Advance Gifts Co-Chairmen.
A gift of $4,000 by Sadie Dan
ciger, to the women's section of
the CJA, was announced at the
dinner. 4
Among the contributors were
Morris Shanhouse $500; Aaron
and Leon Levy $4,000; Elmer Pre-

Austria In

ment and major world Jewish or
ganiZationS on Jewish repara-
tions demands will begin in Mar.
or April, authoritative sources
said.
The discussions were originally
set for last November, but gov
ernment crisis intervened and the
present "caretaker" government
refused to bind any new govern
ment which will take office after
the February % elections. In
view of the adoption by the
U.N. of a positive recommends
ton for an Austrian peace treaty,
the new government needs no
longer fear Arab threats of sabo-
taging Austrian hopes in the U.N.
if reparations are paid.

Prime Minister Adnam Menderes
has reaffirmed that his Democra-

which it controls will adhere to
the principles of equal rights to
all citizens, regardless of race, or
religion.
Addressing an annual party
congress at Gaziantop, the Prime
Minister warned reactiOnarieS
who attempt to abridge minority
rights that the government will
not stand for their activities, and
he pledged that his party would
expel any member who espouses

RUssiu-Isruel
Break Seen

AS Moscow continued its press
and radio attacks, diplomatic circ-
les in London forecast the sever
ance of diplomatic relations be-
tween Israel and the Soviet I'm
ion.
They predicted the break would
be initiated by Moscow following
the imminent trial of the nine
doctors accused in a Jewish
plot" to assassinate the leaders of
the Soviet Union. The Kremlin,
these sources declare, would use
the convictions as proof of hos
tile intent and therefore as the
reason for the break.
1t pointed out that ''in the event
Russia succeeds in promoting a
break with Israel, it is taken for
granted the Eastern European
satellites will follow suit.
This" the dispatch noted,
would destroy the hopes of the
estimated 100000 Jews who
want to emigrate from Commu-
mist countries to Israel"

President Asks
Law Revision

WASHINGTON (J'TA) = Pres.
Eisenhower, in his State of the
Union address, asked Congress to
review" the McCarran-Walter
immigration Act "and to enact a
statute that will at one and the
same time guard our legitimate
national interests and be faithful
to our basic ideas of freedom and
fairness to all"
Pres. Eisenhower also empha-
sized that vigilant guarding of
civil rights "is sacred obliga-
tom of every American citizen.
ITO be true to ones freedom" he
said, "is-in essence = to honor
and respect the freedom of all
others. A cardinal ideal in this
heritage we cherish is the equal
ity of rights of all citizens of ev-
cry race and color and creed"
The President did not ask for
compulsory Federal civil rights
plan for friendly conferences" to
seek voluntary compliance with
civil rights ideas. He pledged,
however, to use the authority
existing in the Office of the Pres
ident to end segregation in the
District of Columbia, including
the Federal Government and any
segregation in the armed serv-
ices.

FORT DIX, N. j., Feb. 49,
A young Brooklyn soldier, de-
scribed as a former mental pa
tent, was held today in the
death Of a lieutenant who at
first was believed killed acct

neuvers, Army authorities said.
Capt. Harry Lapham, public
information officer at this Army
post, said Pvt. Edgar Owens. 81,
has admitted shooting the lieu
tenant in signed statement,
but that no motive was found.
An investigation into the
death last week of 1t. Richard
M. Davenport of New London,
Conn, determined that he zap
parently was murdered" said
Maj. Gen. Homer w. Kiefer,
commander of the 9th Infantry
Division.
Owens will be charged with
murder in the next 48 hours"
Capt. Lapham said yesterday.
Termed Freak at First.
The first announcement of 1t.
Davenport's death termed it a
freak accident, because it was
thought he was killed by frag-
mentS from a shell that exploded
225 feet away, far beyond the
safety limit in training maneu-
verS.
But an autopsy later disclosed
that it was a .30-caliber MI
rifle bullet that killed the o.
year-old lieutenant.
Pvt. Owens had been treated

jet fuel picked up at the Ro-

The vessel is repeatedly char

fuel bound for Communist
China. The Wilma, defying a

carefully watched by Western

Of1cials who told reporter Of
the second tanker said today
there is a report the Communists
have decided to divert the Neste
to Gdynia, a Polish Baltic Sea
port, because of fear that allied
governments may find some way
to stop it and confiscate the
cargo.
The Neste passed through the
Dardanelles February S and
loaded up with jet fuel, they said.
Reliable information, they said,
showed it would try to haul its
cargo to China, following the
same route taken by the Wilma
through the Suez Canal, into
the Indian Ocean.
Now, however, the orders are
reported to be to divert it to
Poland instead. American off,
Gals are watching it closely be-
cause they are not sure of the

The administration today was
committed to the nearly impos-
sible task of winning labor and
management agree ment on
changes in the Taft-Hartley
labor relations law.
This effort will be made
through a. 15-member Labor De-
partment advisory committee,
established by Secretary of Labor
Durkin at President Eisenhower's
suggestion.
Personnel of the committee,
with five representatives each of
organized labor, industry and
the general public, was an
nounceds by Mr.. Durkin.
The committee will start work
Monday, and it's first job. ex-
pected to last at least a week,
will be to advise Mr.. Durkin and
the President on the labor law
changes to be sought in Congress.
Basis Of Bill. s
These proposed amendments
to the law, if agreement can be
reached On any. will be ineor-
porated in the administration S
official bill. 1t may be presented
by Gen. Eisenhower in the form
Of special message to Congress.
The advisory committee will
be a continuing committee and
later will be asked to advise on
other Labor Department prob
lens. But right now, the ques-
ton of what changes to be asked
in the Taft-Hartley Act is the
only subject on its agenda.
Past administrations tried to
draft national labor manage
ment policy, with the help of
labor and industry advice, and
failed.
The plan announced by Mr..
Durkin is similar to that at
tempted by former President
Truman in 1945, when he called
a national labor management
conference to work out a labor
peace program. The confereeS
were unable to agree and the
conference broke up.
Studies of Act Slated.
Mr.. Durkin will be chairman
of the committee. and he will
sit in on the meetings. The COM
mittee will be split into sub
groups for a study of the Taft
Hartley Act as it affects different
industries and unions. These
groups will be furnished full in
formation on all of the amend
