Friday, February 13, 1953 SARASOTA, FLORIDA Anti-Jewish Campaign Gadiers Momentum Behind Iron Curtain NEW YORK, (JTA) The Communist anti-Jewish campaign continued to gain momentum this week in the Soviet Union and in virtually all countries behind the Iron Curtain. Dispatches received here by the JTA disclosed further arrests in the Soviet Union of persons ac cused of espionage as Pravda con tinued its diatribes against “bour geois nationalists” and others having a “psychopathic” urge to wards foreign things. In this cate gory it placed the nine doctors arrested in a “Jewish plot” against the Soviet leadership. JTA dispatches from Istanbul reported that the Communist au thorities in Rumania were pre paring to place on trial a number of Zionists accused of conspiracy against the State. Information received by the JTA in London disclosed that all property in Hungary belonging to the Joint Distribution Committee had been “nationalized” by the BEST WISHES BROWN & STOKES General Insurance MAIN STREET AT FIVE POINTS "The Hartford Agent" SARASOTA, FLORIDA Brotherhood Week Greetings to all our Jewish Friends The Solution of the World Problem is World Brotherhood A.

This move followed the arrest last month of Lajos Stoekler, head of the Budapest Jewish commu nity and head of the committee which administered JDC funds in Hungary. He was accused of illegal possession of foreign cur rency. Five Jewish members of the Communist hierarchy fell victims last week to the new “purge” in Hungary. They included a cabi net minister and a high police official. The Hungarian Communist re gime also moved against Israel last week when it denounced an attache of the Israel Legation in Budapest as a spy and demanded his immediate recall. MR. LOURIE VOICES CONDEMNATION Mr. Arthur Lourie, Consul-Gen eral of Israel in New York and Deputy Permanent Representative of Israel to the United States, speaking on two television pro grams said that all the evidence suggests that once again totalitar ian dictatorship is seeking an out let for its own inner tensions by focusing agitation on the crudest and most ancient of prejudices, by stirring up passions of anti- Semitism and by launching a campaign of slander and incite ment in Soviet countries against the Jewish people and Israel. THt SOUTHERN JEWISH WEEKLY B # nai B'rith Asks U. S. and U. N. Aid in Preventing Soviet Massacre of Jews WASHINGTON, Branding Soviet anti-Semitism as “a com plete negation of human rights and fundamental freedoms,” the national executive committee of B’nai B’rith, at its annual meet ing here, called on the President of the United States, the Secre tary of State, Congress, and the United Nations to join in pre venting a repetition of the Nazi destruction of millions of Jews. Frank Goldman, President of B’nai B’rith, presided at the meeting. Greetings of the organization were extended to President Eisen hower upon his assumption of office, and he was commended for demanding a liberal revision of the McCarran-Walter Immigra tion Act in his State of the Union message to Congress. “The godless character of Com munism,” states the resolution adopted at the closing session of the executive committee, “is again demonstrated by the wilful destruction of human life. This is nothing less than coldly calcu lated genocide.” Expressing deep concern and anxiety for the fate of Jewish life behind the Iron Curtain, the national B’nai B’rith officials urged Congress to adopt a resolution condemning the per secution of Jews in the Soviet Union and its satellite countries, request the President and the Secretary of State “to take ap propriate measures to dissuade the Communist government from persecuting Jews,” and call on the United Nations to establish a commission of inquiry to investi gate the violation of human rights and “bring the Soviet Union and its accomplices before the bar of world-wide opinion and the con science of the world.” BEST WISHES Furnishings For Homes, Apartments and Hotels Wholesale and Retail RERTS, INC.
