Gen. Eisenhower Realizes Displaced Must Go To Palestine
TRUE STORY....
feA young tioctor, who was a war veteran with four years of war, of which more than three and one half were spent In the first line of fighting fronts over¬ seas, comes home.. He wants to intern   In   his   specialty   before opening a private office, willing to sacrifice a few more years to learning. .He  knows  that  in  a certain hospital they are badly in need of a capable Intern and applies for the position. .Before he can even state his case, the chief coldly snaps at him; "We have no use for you.  Ypu are, too old!" He is exactly 30..The truth is that he happens to be a  Jew—who   looks   it.. Did  we win the war against fascism?.. ABOUT PERSONS.... ^Walter    Wlnchell    may    be wrong   .sometimes.. For   he   is wrong   when   he   writes   that 'Einstein told FDR (years ago) that thfe Mbmlc project wouldn't click"..The   truth' is  just   the other way about. .Einstein sent A.  Sachs   to  FDR  to  tell  him that   the   atomic   project   could succeed.. You'll   never   see   any new    Hollywood-mode    movies with   Emli   Jannlngs,   the  Ger¬ man  star. .The  American   Gov¬ ernment blacklisted him as un¬ desirable visitor to these shores ..Mrs. Franz Werfel, Is leaving the  United   States  and   taking with her the mortal remains of her late husband. .Werfel is to be burled in Vienna next to the first husband  of Mrs.  Werfel-r- Gustav Mahler. .Orchids to Aar¬ on W. Davis, president of Tem¬ ple  Israel,  New  Rochelle,  N.Y. for  creating  a   Foundation   for the  Rabbis  occupying  the  pul¬ pit ot that congregation. ANTI-SEMITIC   FRONT... ^For the third time within a few months a rabbi was stoneci while sitting In his study..The case happened in Maspeth, Long Island..and the police have not taken  any  notice. .Why?. .It  is nasty and stupid propaganda to pick up whispering gossip that Ley, the Nazi big shot who com¬ mitted suicide was once named Levy..that kind of talk is just circulated to nullify  Ley's  last denunciation of anti-Semitism.. The  Catholic  Center  for  Jews, 65th   Street  and   12th   Avenue: Brooklyn, N.Y. is making a big drive  for  converts.. Missionary Work   among   Jews   is   nothing new.. But  when  a   propaganda line "A Jew is a good Jew only when hP Is a Christian" Is used in   a   Christian   Front-infested area—It's  NOT  FAIR, even  in the missionary field. The Amer¬ ican  Library  Association  Is  o/- ten  accused  of  practicing  pro¬ fessional  discrimination against Jews..It   appears   now   that   it also  applies  a  similar  practice against   Jewish   books..In   its list    of    outstanding    religious books of the year, the few, yea the very few are any but out¬ standing. .The outstanding ones were Just Ignored. .Why?. MISCELLANY... feThe    rumours    about    Sam Goldwyii changing religion are without    foundation. .Don't  'let the   Broadway   columnists   kid you..The  forthcoming book by Elliot Roosevelt will have some interesting   references   to   mat- te»s of genuine Interest to Jew¬ ish   organizations.. Billy   Rose, the    Impressario   who   In   his youth  held  the Job aa  private secretary to Bernard Baruch is taking   nla   first   vacation   In
PARIS (WNSl—David Ben- Gurion, chairman of the execu¬ tive of the Jewish Agency, de¬ clared here at a press confer¬ ence that General Eisenhower "is aware of the fact that the Jewish survivors must go to Palestine."
Mr. Ben-Gurlon made the statement following a visit to Jewish camps in Germany, where he was received at Gen¬ eral Elsenhower's headquarters in Frankfurt. The Zionist lead er said he was highly impress¬ ed by the General's "under¬ standing and helpful attitude" regarding the Jewish displaced persons problems. He said he found the moral and physical conditions of the survivors bet¬ ter than he expected, but that there was still room for im¬ provement. The American mili¬ tary authorities, he disclosed, are meeting the vocational train¬ ing problem by requisitioning German workshops and placing them for use by the displaced Jews.

CAIRO (WNS)— Approxi¬ mately 1,000 participants in the four-day riot against Jews here have been arrested, and though the police has declared the situ¬ ation under control bands of hoodlums are still roving the Jewish section of the city and terrorizing men, women and children.
No estimate of the damage to Jewish property has yet been made, but it is believed the fig¬ ure will reach within a million. More than 300 persons were in¬ jured in Cairo and about the same number in Alexandria, where nine persons were re¬ ported killed.
In the meantime it was dis¬ closed by Dr. Haim Nahoum, Chief Rabbl of Egypt, that one of the principal Jewish schools in Cairo, where 1,300 pupils re¬ ceived free education, had been completely pillaged cluring last week's riots, that great Sharia Faruk Synagogue had been "profaned and looted" and that a similar fate had been suffered by three synagogues in Alexan¬ dria, He told reporters "our scrolls of law, which our peo¬ ple had kept for a thousand .years, were destroyed by sacri¬ legious hands and burned in the street."
Jewi.sh leaders are planning to hold a conference, where the question of a fot-mal to the Egyptian Government will be discussed.
The Jewish community here has set aside Thursday, Novem¬ ber n, as a day of protest and fasting. All Jewish stores, shops, factories, schools and instltu- tion.s in Egypt will'Be, closed. Special services will he held in tiie .synagogues.
Although the police in Cairo denied any foreknowledge of the riots. Informed Jewish sour¬ ces here said that several days before the outbreak many .Jew¬ ish store keepers had been warned by friendly Egyptians to close their stores last Friday. In fact It has been reported that some of the informed store keepers transmitted the infor¬ mation to the Chief Rabbi Haim Nahoum, who advised them to close down for the day.
Although supporters of the Arab cause are claiming that the demonstration was purely an anti-Zionist manifestation, Jewish leaders here are con¬ vinced that the administration showed every evidence of being an organized anti-Semitic affair. Premier Mahmoud Fahmy, telling reporters that "this grave incident saddens me," de¬ clared that he was convinced that "no reasonable Egyptian will subscribe to what has oc¬ curred." But the Influential newspaper La Bourse Egypti- enne denounced the empty ex¬ pressions of regret that are being voiced in government circles. It urged that "the re¬ grets assume tangible form."
tions in Haifa and the vicinity during the .same hours, includ¬ ing the Haifa port and railway statlon.s, rail yards, electric pow¬ er house, various factories and the Irati pipeline terminal in¬ stallations.
The curfew, it is believed, was Imposed  to prevent .sabotage.
The extension of the curfew to Haifa was believed to have been the result of a reported attempt, by a i>and of six Jews, lo raid the British Navy depot at Athlit, ten miles south of Haifa. The raid was blocked by the depot police with no casual¬ ties on either sicie.
In the meantime the secret Jewish radio, "Voice of Israel", denied in' a broadcast accusa¬ tions of Zionist tei-rorism hi Pal¬ estine.
"Not only the British leaders but their Palestine representa¬ tives know that we want the best relations with Britain and the British Commonwealth," it said.
"We have proved this during repeated Arab rebellions and during two world wars", the an¬ nouncer   declared.
"We are denied our rights be¬ cause of the alleged fear ot Arab reaction. Our self-restraint is Interpreted as a sign of weak¬ ness and fear. That is also a lie. We mean to byiid and not destroy."
