A new restitution law, which is in draft form at present, would provide for the return of rental and lease rights to racial and political persecutees.

The measure, which has met with a number of obier-tions. must be passed in its final form by the Austrian Cabinet and then approved by the Allied Council. The Organization of Former Concentration Camp Inmates has demanded that the law be amended so that it would apply in cases where persecutees were dispossessed by the Nazis rather than that each rase should be settled individually as the measure now provides. Thus far. the government has refused to make the change.

The measure now stipulates that after six months the Organization of Former Concentration Camp Inmates may claim all rental rights to which persecu'ees who died heirless would have been entitled. The organization will then lease the apartments to other persecutees as form of general restitution. Individual claims are valid if filed within one year after final passage of the legislation. L'nder the proposed legislation only persons present in Austria can claim the return of rental rights, but even on that basis it is expected that a good-sized share Former JWB Official Receives Award Newa-'k CTTA) Rabbi Louis Levitsky ruts been awarded a certificate appreciation from the Depa'-iment of 'he Army for "outstanding contributions to the urogram of the Chaplaincy Corps" during W'orfd War II. it was announced here.

"The stories that you have road about it are not exaggerated. is really a great orchestra." "So." I said, "you think everything will work nut all right?" "No." said Mr. Simonhoff. "I didn't mean to imply I am not at all personally ton reassured the conduct of the neighboring countries, and I think we Jews have underestimated the force ol the opposition. The Palestine Jews may be able to take rare of themselves as far as the Palestine Arabs are concerned, but I am not too sure about their ability to resist the horde from the adiaront Arab lands.

There is a serious situation." "So." I said, you did not feel entirely at ease in Palestine." "No not in that sense, but in another sense I experienced a of relaxation which perhaps never encountered before." said Simonhoff. "You mean." 1 said, "you felt a great toy in being in an all-Jewish citv. It thrilled the Jewish t)art of you." "Well." said Simonhoff. "if you won't tell anyone I will let you in on a secret, which maybe many Jews wont like." "What is that?" I said. "WELL.

I THINK tho greatest thing I felt in the all-Jewish city of Tel Aviv was that I didn't feel like Jew I telt like a human "I think I see what you mean." said. "You mean one feels one's sopava'enoss most where one is a minority." "Yes." he said, "the Jew in Tel Aviv tools an entirely liberated human being. He no longer has to explain, apologize or justify his Jewishness. He can say. "Some of my best friends are Christians." He is the least narrow Jew in the world.
