Concern Expressed About
Soviet Treatment Of Jews

DALLAS, (JTA) - The fOur-day
general assembly of the Council of
Jewish FederationS and Welfare
Funds concluded here with the
adoption OF numerous important
resolutions, including one express
ing the concern of the American
Jewish community with the treat
ment of Jews in the Soviet Union.
Another resolution adopted by the
1000 assembly delegates, repre-
senting 800 Jewish communities,
called on American Jews to in
crease their contributions in 1862
to meet pressing domestic a n d
overseas needs. The call empha-
sized that, in 1862, the Jewish COM
munities must raise for these pur-
poses more than $165, 900, 900.
In the resolution on the Soviet
Union, the assembly pointed out
that the Council of Jewish Fed
erationS and Welfare Funds has,
in the past. expressed its concern
over the deprivation by the Soviet
Union of the rights of Jews to
maintain their religious and cul-
tural institutions and practices.
"Under the shock of reports OF
recent events regarding the treat
ment of Jews in the Soviet Union.
this concern remains unabated,"
the resolutian stated. 1t expressed
the hope that the force of public
opinion, "reflecting the conscience
of mankind" will bring an end to
Soviet attacks on Jews and Jewish
institutions. The resolution also ex-
pressed the hope that Jews in
Russia Twill be given the S m
rights as other groups to religious
expression and cultural fulfillment.

HE SHOULD TALK
TO HIS CHAPLAIN

DENEIAM, England Who is
the U. S. Air Forces chaplain
here? Jewish airmen, newly ar
rived at the South Ruislip USAF
Base, sooner or later make a
beeline for the chaplain's office,
but it frequently turns out to be
the wrong chaplain. The Roman
Catholic padre is Chaplain Israel
and the Protestant chaplain is
Chaplain Klein.
To add to the confusion, the
Jewish chaplain, Sylvan Kamens,
fine d S his name pronounced
"Cummins" by most people. All
three chaplains share the same
offices.
Rabbi Aryeh Lev, director of
the National Jewish Welfare
Boards Commission on Jewish
Chaplaincy, which recruits, en-
dorSeS and serves Jewish chap
lainS in all branches of the Serv-
ice, found this situation awaiting
him when he made a field trip to
Europe to confer with Jewish
chaplains there.
''It's one problem didn't bar
gain for" said Chaplain Kamens.
Rabbi Lev, an old Army man,
might have suggested that Rabbi
Kamens do what any CT does
when he has a problem - see
the chaplain. But which chap
lain?

Soviet Arrests Intended
TO Silence Views Of Jews

Russian Jews still feel for their
Jewish background, DR.. Prinz said,
was revealed in the 1859 Soviet
census, when some 1870 Russian
Jews listed Yiddish as their mother
tongue. This was 20S per cent of
the total of 2,268, 600 persons who
officially declared themselves Jew
iSh.
COMING SOME 40 years after
the Communist revolution, which
made a state policy of irreligion,
and some IL years after the Soviet
Union closed down all avenues of
Jewish cultural expression, DR..
Prinz said, "this remarkable DEM
onStration of Russian Jewry's con-
tinuing cultural and linguistic ties
to the Jewish people can only be
attributed to their unyielding de-
termination to retain their identity
as Jews"

Green Speaks for Chamber
The chambers were repre-
scented by Stanley r. Green, ed
ucation chairman for the coun
ty unit, who called for a reduc
ton of $3.5 million in current
budget proposals. This cut, he
said, could be achieved by hold
ing the annual per-pupils cost
to its present level of $439 in
stead of authorizing an increase
to the $3.50 sought by the school
board.
Green said members of the
chambers, "aS businessmen
are convinced the reduction
could be achieved without i'm
pairing the quality of education
in the county. He presented sta
tistics which, he said, created

posed increases in the cost OF
