purges
London, (JONS) . With a ttioroughness exceeding the wildest dreams-of Polish antisemites before the war, the present-day Communist regime in the country has almost completed the removal of Jews from political, cultural, economic and public life.
Ministers, high officials, professors, factory foremen -few have escaped the axe, iand the days of the remainder are numbered. Two new deputies have been appointed to the Foreira Minister, and the present Deputy Foreign Minister, Marian Nasz-kowski, a Jew, will soon be out of a job.
A pre-war Communist, he was the real organizer of the war-time Polish Army in the Soviet Union. Until recently, despite his Jewlshness. he was highly regarded in Moscow.
It was he who summoned the Israeli Minister, Mr. Dov Sattat, to the Polish Foreign Ministry last June, and handed him the Note breaking off diplomatic relations with Israel which have never been restored.
Mr. Hersh Smolar^ the vice-president of the Social and Cultural Union of Polish Jews and editor of the Warsaw Yiddish paper, "FoUcsz-tyme", has been dismissed flrom the board of the Polish-Soviet Friendship League.
Like Mr. Naszkowski, he was until recently held in high esteem in Moscow. During the war, he led a Part-' isan unit against the Germans in Byelorussia.
DOCTORS' PLOT there were echoes of the Stalinist "Doctors' Plot", when the Polish Army newspaper accused a leading Jewish doctor, Anatol Felgin, the director of a medical clinic, of having "terrorised" Mr. Gomulka and Marshal Spychalski when they were imprisoned in the early 'fifties.
Dr. Felgin was said to have been a departmental director in the Security Ministry at the time.
Gomulka, the Polish Communist Party leader, that those Jews who do not wish to assimilate should leave the.country. There are also indications that Jews are being refused entry visas.
News that Jews were being refused permission to leave Poland was given by the Warsaw daily, "Zycle Warszawy", which said that the decision had been taken after "it became clear" that Polish Jews who formerly held senior positions had "revealed military secrets to be delivered to the CIA" on their arrival in Israel.
courage
Rome (JCNS). - Yugoslavia's delegation refused to give its approval to an anti-Israel declaration issued here by a conference organized by the Italian Communist Party and the Left-wing Italian Socialist Party of Proletarian Unity.
The three-day conference brought together "for the first time", (as the participants frequently emphasized) seventeen delegations representing Communist and other parties and movements from twelve Mediterranean countries: Algeria; Cyprus; ^ain: France; Greece; Italy; Morocco; Portugal; Egypt; Syria; Turkey; Yugoslavia
Representatives of the Italian Communist Party and
the French Socialist Party expressed regret that Israel had been excluded from the conference at the demand of the Arabs. |
M. Marc Heurgon, of the French- Socialist Party, siid that it was high time that an end be put to 'monologues without a dialogue", and urged the needier open discussion of problems about which "out- Arabfriends held different views from others."
After 24 hours of discussion behind closed doors, the conference produced a six-page document denouncing •American Inaperiallsm*.
Regarding Israel, the document declared: 'The conference demands the immediate withdrawal, without conditions, of Israeli armed forces to the positions occupied before June 5, 1967, in conformity with the principle that the acquisition of territories through war is inadmissible."
The head of the Yugoslav delegation, in abstaining from approving the document expressed himself firmly in fkvor ol the participation of all 'progressive forces' In such conferences, and for 'the transformation of the Mediterranean into a region without foreign bases and atomic weapons."
This last pWtse was interpreted as a clear and critical reference to the presence of the Soviet fleet in the Mediterranean, which the document did not mention.
Czech changes
Frankfurt, (JCNS). -certain, change" in the at-,' tltude of the Czechoslovak-authorities towards Israel; was confirmed at. a press conference in Frankfurt last week by Dr. Eduard Golds-tuecker, the chairman of the Czechoslovak Writers'. Union, and professor of German at the Charle^ University in Prague. .
The Czechoslovak leaders were now realising what the 'uncritical adoption of the Arab nationalists' chauvinist slogans" was wrong, he pointed 0 u t. Dr. Golds-tuecker, who arriyed here to lecture at the University on the Franz Kafka, said that he believed unjustified the fears expressed abroad that the democratic processes now being introduced In Czechoslovakia might Iw curtailed or even stopped by 'certain foreign pressures".
Between 1949 and 1951 he was Czechoslovakia's Minister to IsraeL
Prague (JCNS). - Czechoslovak Jewry had ample supplies of matzot and kosher wine for the celebration of the Passover in the fradl-tional way this year, and the spirit of liberalization In the counfry contributed greatly to making this year's Festival of Freedom a memorable one.
