The Columbus Section, National Council of Jewish Women, Is completing plans for^the 1965 School for Community Action, entitled "The Immovable Middle Class."
"The purpose of the school is to challenge middle class lib¬ erals to review and abandon attitudes which are barring eco¬ nomic, educational and cultural advancement by Negroes, and other victims of Inherited poverty," stated Mrs. Jules Vogel, director of the school. | drive  will  talce   place   from   now
The three-day school will be held  through spring in 329 communities
at the Jewish Center on Tuesday, Jan. 5 and Monday, Jan. 11, from 12 noon to 3 p.m., and on Monday, Jan. 18, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The sessions will consist of lec¬ tures in the form of dramatic readings, followed by seminars with small groups of women dis¬ cussing what they could and should do in typical situations involving segregation, and likely to be af¬ fected by the response of private citizens.
i^ccording to Mrs. Joseph Willen, national president of the NaticSHiil Council of Jewish Women, "we intend to help correct the distorted image of women\ being projected by those who are putting preju¬ dice and personal convenience fore¬ most in fighting neighborhood school integration.

The move to reaffiliate came after two years of discussions dur¬ ing which negotiators ironed out the differences that had led ADL, and its parent body, B'nai B'rith, to resign in 1952. The controversy was the result of a plan to reallo¬ cate activities and responsibilities among meratjer agencies.
The proposal was welcomed by Mark D. Feinknopf, vice-chairman of the Ohio-Kentucky ADL Regional Board and chairman of the Com¬ munity Relations Committee of the United Jewish Fund and Council of Columbus, who called " it "a pleasing prospect" for the ADL to affiliate with other communal agencies In the NCRAC.

Over 118 Million In 1965 Needed By JDC
New York (JTA)—The Joint Distribution Committee will need $18,853,000 to meet the minimum needs of an estimated 456,000 refugees or distressed .lews In 30 countries during 1965.
The figure was reported at the annual National Conference of the United Jewish Appeal, at a session devoted to a special ob¬ servance of JDC's 50th anniversary and to presentation of the agency's budget neetls.
Moses A. Leavitt, JDC executive vice-chairman, told the delegates that increasing distress among Jews in many areas, combined with the end of West German re¬ parations funds, would lead to a "dangerous gap" next'year in the JDC aid programs.
Mr. Leavitt pointed out the JDC in 1965 will no longer receive grants from the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany.' These grants, averaging $7,000,000 annually over the past 11 years, helped maintain welfare, rehabili¬ tation, cultural and religious pro¬ grams benefiting surviving victims uf Nazi persecutions.
Jack D. Weiler of New York, a National Chairman Of. the UJA, traced the JDC's development from its limited initial objective of pro¬ viding aid to the sorely pressed Jews ot Palestine at the beginning of World War I, to its present glo¬ bal operations.
Other speakers were Jack D. Weiler, a national chairman of UJA; Edward M. M. Warburg, chairman of the JDC and a UJA honorary chairman; Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, executive vice-chair¬ man of the Development Corpor¬ ation for Israel, former Overseas director-general of the JDC, and chairman of the. JDC 50th anni¬ versary committee; and Charles H. Jordan, director-general of JDC Overseas Operations.
Mr. Warburg, who was reelected as JDC chairman for the next year, paid tribute to the "extra¬ ordinary generation of American Jews who came together in 1914 (continued on paga ,4]

BONN RETREATING FROM STAND ON EXTENSION OF NAZI PROSECUTIONS
Bonn (JTA) — Dr. Ewald Bucher, the West German Justice Minister, reaffirmed this week his opposition to any extension of the statute of liminations for prosecution of Nazi war criminals. He contended It would be-better to put enough lawyers and pub¬ lic prosecutors on the task of checking .still unprosecuted of¬ fenses before the deadline expired next May 8. He added that It was the general view of the Cabinet which, on November 11, said it could not extend the statute on constitutional grpunds.
However, Gunther von Hase, the West German press spokesman, said earlier this week that a new situation would develop if too much material on unprosecuted criminals came in to be processed before the deadline.
This was generally interpreted as preparing the way for the Govern¬ ment to retreat from its stand that the law could not be changed.
Washington, (JTA) — A predic¬ tion that "one way or another" the statute of limitations for German prosecution of Nazi war criminals will t>e extended was made here this week by Erik Blumenfeld, member of the West German Par¬ liament.
Mr. Blumenfeld said on a visit to Washington that the cut-off date for the 20-year period presecritied may be advanced for 10 more years, because the commencement date, now set at May 8, 1945, would be advanced under a parliamentary plan to a beginning dat^ in 1955, when the Allies handed over grea¬ ter constitutional rights to the Ger¬ mans and provided the documen¬ tary records on Nazi criminals to Bonn.
He said there was also a possib¬ ility that the initial date may be moved forward from 1945 to Sep- temt>er 1949, when the constitution
