CEMETERIES
MUNICH, (JTA) — The Ba-
varian provincial legislature
this week unanimously adopted
a motion introduced by the Soc
ial Democratic Party calling on
the government to introduce a
law punishing the desecration
of cemeteries. At the same time,
the Free Democratic Party ask-
ed the government to appeal
to the various cities to take ov-
er responsibility for synagogues
which were abandoned because
Jewish communities no longer
exist to care for them.
Bavarian Premier Hans Eh-
ard told the legislature that in-
stances of neo-Nazi activity
must not be underestimated. He
added that all public prosecu-
tors have been ordered to take
action against any persons in-
involved in such activity.

and the violation of their pro-

ZIONIST AFFAIRS: Why did
President Truman not send toe
usual message of greetings to the
annual convention of the Zionist
Organization of America which
was held last week in Chicago?
This question is being asked by
quite a number of Zionists who
were not among the delegates
"inding toe convention. They
recall that Benjamin Browdy,
Z.0.A. president, reported—fol-
lowing his recent visit to the
White House—that Truman in-
dicated to him that he might at-
tend the Chicago convention.
Well, none of toe serious Zionist
leaders expected that Truman
would really come to the Z. O. A.
parley but a message from Tru-
man was expected. The absence
of such a message has given
ground to all kind of interpre-
tations. Will American Zionist
leadership press for the establish-
ment of the headquarters of the
World Zionist Organization in
urged to accept 306 immigrants.
Detroit’s quote is 279; Cleve-
land’s is toe same; Baltimore fol-
lows with a quote of 234 and
Newark with 225. Next is Pitts-
burgh, which is to assure toe
acceptance of 207 displaced Jews,
and St. Louis whichshas a quota
of 198. Miami’s quote is 162;
Milwaukee and Washington
must each accept 153 refugees,
Minneapolis slated for a quota of
112 DP’s and so is St. Paul. Den-
ver will accept 192 Jewish ref-
ugees, Kansas City, Rochester,
Cincinnati and Hartford have
each been asked to assure accept-
ance of 108 displaced Jews this
year. Incidentally, latest J. D. C.
reports reveal that as a result of
a more severe screening process,”
the actual number of persons pro-
cessed and awaiting immigration
under the DP Act has shrunk
from 13,000 at the end of April
to 9,000 in June. The number of
displaced Jews who have been
registered with Jewish overseas
agencies in toe past two weeks
has been lower than expected.
