Sharp Rise Seen In Anti-Semitic Material in South

Chicago (JTA)—A sharp rise "in the amount of anti-Semitic literature put out in the South by local Southern bigots" was reported by the American Jewish Committee. The report, based on a yearlong study, said that most professional a n t i-Semites in the United States were posing as "super-patriots" to gain acceptance in respectable circles. In addition, Arab propaganda in the United States continues to originate from several sources. The report named in the sources as the Arab League's Arab Information Center, with branches in several cities; The Organization of Arab Students, whose members—some 4,000—are active on many U.S. college campuses; and the embassies and UN delegations of the various Arab " nations.

Women's Corps in African Armies Tel Aviv—The officer in comm a u d of the Israeli Army's Women's Corps. Colonel Dina Werth, left Israel last week for Abidjan following an invitation from the Government of the Ivory Coast that Israel assist her in organizing an army women's corps. Colonel Werlh has already visited the Ivory Coast and submitted a report on the prospects of forming a women's corps in the army there. Since the report has been approved by both the Government of Israel and the Government of the Ivory Coast, a group of Israeli women officers will leave shortly for the West African republic to help instruct the first girl recruits. Meanwhile, both Ghana and the Congo have asked Israel for assistance in organizing women's corps in their armies.

Big New Markets For Israel Citrus Haifa—The United States and Canada have become important new markets for Israeli citrus. Large-scale shipments will be sent during the new season, which has just started. The first of six separate shipments—totalling .'100.000 caseswill leave at the end of December. Until now America has taken only a few hundred cases of Israeli citrus. The season's first shipments are now on the way to Britain and are expected to reach London by the end of this month. They are early-ripening grapefruit from the Jordan Vallev.

Tempb Head Sues On Bias Charge New York (WNS)-A $320,000 damage suit was filed in the New York State Supreme Court against a cooperative alleged to have turned a prospective buyer down because of his religion. The action was brought by Alfred R. Bachrach, president of Temple Emanu-El. The complaint states that the plaintiff and his wife made a down payment of $10,000 on an apartment at 1001 Park Avenue in April of 19G0, and that the defendant would not accept the balance and consummate the purchase because the plaintiff was Jewish. The cooperative has denied the charge. He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets; therefore meddle not with him that openeth wide his lips.—Prov. 20:19 (cf. 11:13). "

U. N. Acts on Racial Bias United Nations, N.Y. (JTA)— The United Nations agreed thi3 week by an overwhelming vote to issue, for the first time in UN history, a Declaration calling for elimination of all forms of racial discrimination. Religious bias was mentioned only casually. There is a separata UN agenda item on the elimination of religious discrimination but it was unlikely that the current General Assembly would reach that point for debate.

Mogen David on Sword to Kessel Paris—When Joseph Kessel ia presented with a sword by his friends and admirers on the occasion of his reception into the French Academy, it will have a Mogen David engraved on it and not the customary figure of a nude Greek goddess and a vine-shoot, symbolizing Bacchus. The new "Immortal," as members of the French Academy are known, himself asked that the Mogen David be engraved on his sword to symbolize his membership of the Jewish community. The sword is being produced by C'artier and will have a Cross of Lorraine immediately under the Mogen David, symbolizing' Kessel"s service in the ranks of the Free French forces.

Polish Jewish Officers Purged At least ten high-rankingJews in the Army and Air Force officers have been dismissed in a new purge brought about by pressure from Stalinists and antisemitic elements in the Polish Government. Among those relieved of their posts were C o l o n e l A d a m Aumer, the head of the Air. Force's Political Department, and two of his subordinates. According to Warsaw reports, antiJewish elements in the regime are gaining in influence and bringing increasing pressure to bear, and the process of eliminating Jewish officials from high positions in the administration is thus likely to continue. 9UALITY LUGGAGE AT REASONABLE PRICES

800 Students at New University Haifa—About eight hundred 6tudents — well above expectations—will be admitted to the first session at Haifa's new university, which just opened. The largest number of students has registered for the accounting and auditing course. The teachers training course— which was the university's main aim—has attracted only 30 students. The lack of enthusiasm for teaching among young Israelis i3 apparently based on the low remunerations teachers receive.
