NEW    YORK    (J
American Jewish will ask the U grant a hearing at Francisco Conference on Api 25th to representative bodies o the Jewish people on measures vital to their post-war rehabili¬ tation, it was announced here, following an all-day meeting of the Interim Committee ot the Conference, by Louis Llpsky, Chairman of the Executive Com¬ mittee, and one of the three Co- chairmen of the Conference's Interim Committee. The other Co-chairmen are Dr. Israel Gold¬ stein and Henry Monsky.
The Conference will request tho United Nations to recognize the Jewish claim, for representa- tation, on al! agcncie.'i that may be establi.shcd to deal with post¬ war reconstruction and organiza¬ tion.
It is intended that tho re- fiuests shall bo presented by the American Jewish Conference, in concert with interested .lewish bodies ot other countries. In furtherance of this program the Interim Committee, at its meet¬ ing, approved the establishment ot a committee of "representa¬ tives of the Amei'icun .lewish Conference, the World Jewish Congress and the Board of De¬ puties of British Jews, to work out the means whereby consul¬ tation and co-ordination among themselves and such other Jew¬ ish bodies as are In agreement with  their generai  policy  may
be most effectively secured and their common objectives affect¬ ing postwar Jewish needs at¬ tained". The Interim Commit¬ tee was informed at its meeting that the World Jewish Congress and the Board of Deputies ot British Jews had approved the proposal.
Among the matters that 'will be brought to the attention ot tho San Franci.sco Conference is the American Jewish Confer¬ ence proposal for an internation¬ al Bill of' Rights, which would embody:
"Full and complete protection of life and liberty for the inhab¬ itants of all countries without distinction ot birth, nationality, language,  rare  or religion.
"Unequivocal equality of rights In law and in fact for all the citizens of every country.
"Tho inalienable right of all religious, ethnic and cultural groups to maintain and foster their respective groups identities on the basis ot equality.
It was pointed out that inas¬ much as tho new United Nations organization is likeiy to become the successor of the League of Nations, tho San Francisco Con¬ ference may take up the ques¬ tion ot mandated territorities, in which event the Confeiwce— . In co-operation with the Jewish Agency ot Palestine — would ask the United Nations to re¬ affirm Jewish rights to Pales¬ tine.
