tion, in accordance with the Dura-barton Oaks proposals, of a permanent commission to be set up by the United Nations conference to formulate an International Bill of Rights embodying the principles of fundamental human rights, rel-ifhous liberty, and racial equality; the establishment by the United Nations of a commission on migration with the view of regulating mrirration upon the principle that there should be no discrimination between racial, rel ifrious and ethnic jrroups*; creation by the United Nations of a commission on state-!<�!�j�T�e*!* with the view of normalizing the status of alt displaced persor* throughout the war-*hat-
world.
The American Jewish Committee asks for the condemnation by the United \ations. of public or or-tfanizeil incitement against religious. ethnic or racial groups as
co-reliirionists should not be discouraged from cooperating in the program by "a minority of Bishops who are not interested" in interracial and interreligknu organizations.
He said that while cooperation of the clergy was wanted, "this is primarily a civic movement,"
Others who addressed the conference were Commodore Harry A. Radt, commander of the Naval Training Center at Sampson. N.Y.; Roger W. Straus, Jewish co-chairman of the organization, and Dr. Howard E. Wilson, of Harvard.
"It may start against Jews." Dr. Clinchy warned, "hut it will inevitably turn against Catholics and against sections of Protest-ant*." He said that those who hate Jews. Catholics or Protestants despise democracy, for they do not want a social order which gives to people different from themselves the same dignity and the same right* they \rant for theTr.selves. He asserted in his address that
The Rev. L. H. Hardraan, C.F., writing home to England from Holland, describes some of his meetings and experiences with Jewish people there who have survived the Nazi hounding and persecution.
"Much has been heard and read," he says, "of the appalling atrocities committed on our people by the Nazis, but far too little has been heard of the terrific spirit of M'sirat Nefesh which permeated the lives of so many of cur brethren during their servitude and hiding."
Mr. Hardman tells how every Jewish rite waa forbidden, and even burials of the dead could not ordinarily be performed for fear of discovery, especially wher non-Jews had hidden Jews and stocd in danger themselves if it were known, in two cases he had '.earned of, the body waa taken from the house en a pitch-Hack night and placed in a street, with a note attached asking for Jewish burial!
A family of six spent two yean, without going oat, in a room only a few feet square, and in one outstanding case a family would not eat trefa, but lived mainly on potatoes, occasionally
petting an egg from the Christians who hid them. Throughout Pesach, although without Mattoh, they' steadfastly refused to eat chamctz. The mother, during the whole two years, lit the candles on Shabbas eve; so small did she cut the pieces that one ordinary candle lasted six weeks. Without wine, Kiddush j^as made over milk, although the beracha for v.-.r^ was recited, and even when
there was no bread they made the blessing Hamotzi before eating what food there was.
A Jew who had no candles or Menorah for Chanueah cut little squares of potato that he had managed to get, and put a little oil in slits, into which he pressed cottonwool to act as wicks.
Visiting a town near the front, Mr. Hardman found a Jewish family consisting of a father, mother, and child. The meeting with Jewish padre and Jewish troops led understandably to tears all round. Then later the man's sister, broth-' er-in-law, and three children arrived from a front-line area; the 13-year-oJd son had not had an opportunity of being "called up" to the Torah, so Mr. Hardman at once taught him the berachot from the Thursday till the next Sab-bath�"and" (says the writer) "the soldiers were thrilled to find they were taking- part in a Bar-Mitzvahr
To make the Sabbath really kosher, the host bought a ffooae, which Mr. Hardman, having once been trained f� a schochet, ki}fc<| and kosbered.
At another house in another district, where the padre spent Sabbath, be spoke of Jewish mat-ten and of religion in particular, and the 14-year-old daughter exclaimed : "Vee schoen ess ist txu herreti a Yiddish volt!" ("How grand it is to bear a Jewish word!")
