Selected Stocks Gain
In Narrow Range as
Trading Holds Pace
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 26.-The
stock market advanced selective-
ly today, though trading was at
fairly rapid rate.
Motors, aircrafts, radio-tele-
vision, copper mining and oil
securities worked higher. But
minus signs were scattered
throughout these sections.
Steels declined moderately and
rubbers, distillers, utilities, rail-
roads and motion pictures were
mixed.
Price changes were extremely
narrow for the most part. Chrys-
Ter was UP a point at one time,
but lost most of that advance.
Key issues to the upside in
cluded Packard, U. S. Rubber,
WoolWorth, Boeing, Admiral
Corp, Radio Corp, United Gas
Corp, Air Reduction, General
Electric, international Paper,
American Can, United Air Lines,
and Warner Brothers.
Two firm carriers were New
York Central and Southern Rail-
way. Favorable earnings reports
were credited for the fractional
gains.
In the minus column were
Youngstown. Studebaker, Mont
gomery Ward, Schenley, Ameri-
can Woolen, DUPONT, Kennecott,
American Telephone & Telegraph
and Baltimore & Ohio.
Long term Government bonds
slipped to record lows in meager
over-the-counter trading. High

About 345 communal lead

under auspices of the Council
of Jewish Federations and
Welfare Funds (CJFWF) to
assess communal conditions
and set sights for the future.
Jack Fruchthendler, loca |

sons delegate.
Lay leadership again was a
subject of discussion, accord
ing to Fruchthendler. Con-
tinued progress, delegates
agreed, depends on able and
dedicated leadership. Under
lining all the discussions was
expression of the need for
continual Jewish education
which translates itself into
better leaders, better work
erS. Advancement in inter
faith work was noted.
Prof. Gardner Patterson,
Princeton economist, told del
egates that at present Israel
is poor in resources and till
able land still limited. Also
much of IsraePs raw material
is imported. To overcome
these difficulties the Govern
ment is already taking steps
to guide workers into agricul-
ture and production that util-
ICES local raw materials and
unSkilled labor. He translates
this into a period of lower
wages, harder and more irk-

Austria Mixes
Reporotions

VIENNA (JTA)-The Aus
trian Government has reject
ed the demands of world Jew
iSh organizations for a lump
sum settlement of heirleSS
property claims of Jewish
victims of the NaZiS, after
having negotiated with the
Jewish groups for six months
over the amount of such a
settlement. The Austrian
Government has also turned
down all proposals for ad-
vance payment of any of the
heirleSS restitution claims.
A case-by-case investigation
of the claims is only possible
six months after the ratifica-
ton of an Austrian state
treaty with the Allied pow
ers, the government claimed.
This argument was advanced
by the government on the ba-
sis of a number of Austrian
laws which provide for the
submission of claims for re-
turn of heirleSS property un-
til six months after the treaty
ratification. The government
also argued that if it were to
settle the claims with the
Jewish groups, claimants
could, until six months after
treaty ratification, demand
property which had been in
cluded in the lump sum set
tlement.
The Austrian Government
said they had started off on
the wrong basis, since the
granting of restitution to rae
ial persecutees would mean
discrimination" in favor of
one group. Special regula-
tionS favoring individual
cases or groups was contrary
to Austrian Government pol
icy.

1. How to develop the arm

Arab countries without being
hampered or strangled by
them.
2. How to fortify Israels
security without affecting, as
far as possible, the sympathy
of the world for Israel.
3. How to accept aid from
foreign governments without
yielding IsraePs independ-
ence.
4. How to oppose powers
incomparably stronger than
Israel without undermining
the existing friendly relations
with them.
IT h e Se are stumbling
blocks on our road, but we
will have to get used to pro-
ceeding on the road leading
to our goal" Mr.. Sharett told
the members of the Israel
Parliament.
Israel is ready to arrange
with its neighbors for a just
distribution of the Jordan
Rivers water resources for
benefit of all, but if this
proves impossible Israel will
stand firmly on its right to
finish the hydroelectric pro-
ject, preferably with the UN's
consent, Mr.. Sharett stated.
"We consented to interrupt
the work for a short time to
enable the Security Council to
inquire into the matter in a
quiet atmosphere" he stres-
Sed, "but we did not consent
to an indefinite Interruption"
Mr.. Sharett struck a new
note when he declared that
peace cannot be imposed.
Though it is a vital need of
the region, as we'll as for the
world, he said, there will be
no peace without the good
will o. 4sfaers opponents. He
declared that it was a "decep-
ton" to think that Israel
could not exist without peace

able to exist without peace
