their autos license number, noted
by a witness. Ed Korrick charged
Darrow with painting swastikas on
Jewish Community Center doors
and Malcolm Straus charged the
youth with painting of swastikas on
Temple Beth Israel wall.
The Scottsdale incident, explo-
sion of homemade giant fire
crackers on the patio of the Harold
Gold residence, 1919 E. Oak, re-
manned in doubt as to origin OF
cause in view of the fact that SINH
lar attacks had been on service
station rest rooms and residences
which had no Jewish connection.
HOWEVER, MRS. GOLD, mother
of two children, reported receiving
earlier an anonymous telephone
call asking, "How does it feel to
be the only Jew in the neightor-
hood?"
Congregation Beth Ell Sabbath
services were interrupted by fire
cracker explosions in the syna-
gogues patio. Scattered other acts
of vandalism, unreported officially,
are believed to have occurred in

U.N. GROUP
TO DISCUSS
VANDALS

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (JTA)
"A United Nations subcommission
voted to give high priority to dis
cussion of the worldwide outbreak
of anti-Semitic manifestations de-
spite the opposition of British,
French, and United Arab Republic
members.
The SubcommiSSion on Proven
ton of Discrimination and Protec-
ton of Minorities, unit of the u.
N. Commission on Human Rights,
took the action on a petition of
the International League for the
Rights of Man, supported by the
World Jewish Congress. Chile and
Uruguay led the fight for the COM
mission action which was carried
by a vote of six in favor, one
against, and five abstentions.
Judge Philip Halpern, U. S. MEM
ber of the commission, was not
present.
DIR. M. l.. PERLZWEIG, repre-
senting the World Jewish Congress,
warned the Subcommision that the
question was urgent" It was, he
said, "a matter of life and death
in view Of the activities reported
from all corners of the earth"
The United Nations action un-
folded against a background of
continuing reports of anti-Jewish
manifestations all over the world.
In johannesburg, police reported
discovery of an anti-Jewish, anti
Catholic organization with head
quarters in Natal believed respon-
sible for swastika daubing there.
The 'Kommandant General of
the organization was arrested.
A spot check made by the Jew
ish Telegraphic Agency Washing
ton Bureau today established that
police in some cities were taking
a more serious view of the
swastika epidemic.
BALTIMORE POLICE expressed
the view that DETACHMENT of II in
stitutions in Baltiore was the
work of an organized anti-Jewish
group. A carefully made swastika
stencil was used. Police are seek
ing to link a local underground
anti-Semitic group with a group
that is attempting to establish it
self nationally.
Jacksonville, Fla, police made
known they have evidence pointing
to a national anti-Jewish organiza-
ton. 1t was apparently uncovered
in the probe of the DETACHMENT of
Jacksonville synagogues.
Police in College Park, Md, site
of the University of Maryland, said
anti-J Jewish activities there in re-
cent days appeared to be the work
of an Outside" organization
rather than campus prank. Ad-
herents of the so-called American
Nazi Party" circulated anti-Jew-
ish material on the campus.

Philip TaXman, UJWF general
chairman for the second straight
year, announced that the first
phase solicitations among a small
group of larger givers reached
$120,000 as of jap IA, solid 20
per cent increase over the gifts
of the same givers last year.
Phoenix's combined goal is
$3.50, 900 1924, 300 for the UJWF
and SIPS, 200 for the UJA's emer-
gency rescue fund.
THE INITIAL solicitations were
conducted mainly by Taxman
among Benefactors' group givers
and by Mrs. Dasha Todd, Women's S
Division chairman, among other
large givers.
TaXman was presented the UJA
Distinguished Service Award Jan.
Is by Rabbi Herbert Friedman,
UJA executive vice chairman, at
the Benefactors' Division dinner
at the Century Country Club.
The award, bestowed on Taxnlan
for his outstanding campaign and
community leadership, cited him
for n f u sing enthusiasm and
spirit into the work of his COM
munity in behalf of his brethren
overseas He has spared neither
time nor effort in his determination
that Phoenix should partake in the
fullest measure in Americas
historic effort to aid the Jews of
many lands With profound
gratitude this scroll is presented to
him as symbol of the esteem of
his fellow campaignerS."
THE PLAQUE is signed by UJA
national officers.
Rabbi Friedman also addressed
divisional chairman and vice chair
men Jan. 7, emphasizing the fol-
lowing three major tasks confront
ing Jews of the u. S. and the free
world with respect to UJA:
To finish the task of integration
and housing for immigrants in
Israel; to take care of the needs
of thousands of Immigrants who
will reach Israel this year, and to
give desperately needed care to
the thousands of Jews who cannot
escape areas of oppression. In ad-
dition, national agencies have to be
supported and local agencies,
especially in exploding population
centers like Phoenix, need ade-
quate support.
THE PHOENIX DRIVE, first in
the nation each year, actually
precedes the national kickoff,
which will take place officially at
the Miami Beach convention.
Morris w. BERNSTEIN, UJA gen.
eral chairman, noted that some
10000 persons are still living in
immigrant shanty towns in Israel;
more than 10000 farm settlers
lack water, livestock, farm ma
chinery, and other essentials for
self-sufficient farms; thousands of
aged, handicapped, and youth lack
facilities and funds for care, re-
habilitation, and education.
These needs, he said, constitute
serious impediment in IsraePs

versity of California professor of
literature.
SHORTLY AFTER Hitler occu-
pied Belgium, Miss Daman, then a
teacher, was informed by the Nazis
that her schoolwork did not con-
form to the spirit of new Ger
many"
A Catholic, she showed her defi-
ance by accepting an invitation to
teach at Nos PetitS, an all-Jewish
school. When the Germans closed
the school, the brave headmistress
joined the underground in its dam
gerous struggle against the invad-
er.
Upon Belgium's liberation, she
resumed her work in education,
helping in the rehabilitation of Jew
ish youngsters who had survived
the concentration camps and had
returned to Brussels.
SINCE THE END of World War
II, she has visited Israel frequent
ly to meet with the many children
she helped to rescue. Many of
them now are parents themselves.
She recently returned from an ex-
tensive survey tour of Israel and
the Middle East.
Chairman of the Women's Divi-
sion for the second year is Mrs.
Dasha Todd, who declared that
lone out of every three persons in
Israel today still lacks decent
housing facilities, a reasonable
means of erning a livelihood, or
cannot receive the social welfare
help he requires" Aid to these
individuals is provided by agencies
supported by UJWF funds.

The committees program was
outlined in a letter distributed
COMMUNICATIVE last week. The let
ter outlined the following steps to
be taken by individuals who have
information of vandalism:
Report without delay to the
police at AL 4-11O1 if within the
Phoenix city limits, or to the
Sheriff's office AL 8-6941 if in the
county, and the Jewish Community
Council office, CIR 9-3578. If pos
Sible, get witnesses and car license
numbers and descriptions.
your CRC WILL continue its
investigations and discussions and
will report to you when, as, and
if necessary. The committee re-
quests your cooperation. Please do
not take individual action. Report
to the police and the council; allow
the committee to handle all neceS-
sary publicity and community ac-
ton"
The committees plea was based
on an almost universal belief by
American Jewish organizations
concerned with the problem that
undue alarnist publicity to such
incidents acts as a stimulant to
warped-minded persons for further
violations
The CRC memo stemmed from
a Jan. 10 meeting at which sheriff S
and police officials attended. The
letter reported:
'sTHE OPINION of the police
and the consensus among the
others present was that in view of
the recent arrest of two 17-year-old
boys and one 1S year old, who
have confessed to the painting of
swastikas on synagogues and cars,
that these activities are not the
work of an organized group =.
1.-The perpetrators of the so-cal-
led bombing" in Scottsdale have
not yet been apprehended, but the
sheriff's office is working on them.
Contrary to newspaper reports, the
ScOttsdale occurrences C n n o
definitely be traced to anti-Semi-
tism."
Reports from other communi-
ties and our own findings confirm
our opinion that what we are
seeing is more in the nature of
malicious mischief, rather than
symptoms of growing, organized
anti-Semitism.
while we do not minimize these
acts, experience has taught us
that when ever dramatic outburstS
of bigotry occur and are widely re-
ported, twisted minds and psyche
paths are often stimulated to
initiate. 1t would be unfortunate,
in our vew, to bive this wanda
lism wide publicity lest it embolden
like-minded individuals to similar
acts"
