"Nobody can tell for certain ' what will eventually happen in North Africa nor what the future will bring to the 500,000 Jews rcidinR there.

Landy Case New York (JTA)—The Navy Department's refusal to commission I'Jugcne Landy, the 21-yearold Jewish youth who graduated last Friday from the Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, Long Island, witli second highest honors, was ridiculed by newspapers from all part of the country regardless of political differences among them.

The new university, which was established by tho American Mlzrachl organization as an educational link between Israel and the Un!ted*Statcs and which is named after Rabbi Melr Berlin, late leader of the world Mlzrachl movement, willopen on September. 20 as a liberal arts college offering undergraduate courses leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Sciences. Professor Pincha3 Churgln, formerly of New York, is the first'presl^ dent of the university. More than 150 students, Including 30 from the United States, Britain and Canada, have registered for the first academic year. Tho American Mlzrachl organization raised $5,000,000 to establish the university.

'Hagaddah' Proposed On Warsaw Ghetto uprising has been proposed by Dr. Isaac I. Schwarzbart, director of the World Jewish Congress' Organization Department, as a method of Immortalizing the epic event and of making the observance of Its anniversary a perpetual Memorial Day for world Jewry. The projected Hnggadah would be read In Jewish homes, schools and at commemorative ceremonies throughout the globe on the anniversary of the uprising —the 27th day r,f NIsan—In the same manner that the Passover Haggadah Is read each year by Jews everywhere to signalize the Exodus from Egypt. In announcing the proposal, Dr. Schwarzbart disclosed that he has approached four central institu-

at Jerusalem, nnd the Synagogue Council of America—with the suggestion that a Joint committee be organized to prepare such a. Haggadah. He Is currently preparing the first draft of a "Haggadah of Warsaw" that might serve as a basis for the committee's work. Dr. Selnvarzbart expressed the opinion that the effort to Include in the Passover Hnggadah a "ritual of. remembrance" for the six million dead is not in consonance with the Passover spirit. "There la no common denominator between tho Haggadah devoted to the! joyous celebration of liberation nnd' freedom nnd the commemoration of tho destruction ot one-third of our people," he said.

APPOINTMENT. OPPOSED New York (WNS)—Opposition to the appointment of Mrs. Betty Robblns to tho post of cantor ot 0 Reform temple in Oceanslde, Long Island, was expressed this week by the School of Sacred Music of the Hebrew College-Jewish Institute of Religion, nn Institution for the training of cantors of Reform synagogues. The school based Its opposition on the fact that Mrs. Robblns, regarded as the first woman cantor in Jewish history, has had no cnntorlal training. De claring that the olflce o£ cantor Is a sacred calling, the school voiced the opinion that only those who have been adequately trained for it should be opnomlccl to olli ciate nt synagogue services.

Soviet Statement Disputed by AJC New York (JTA)—The American Jewish Committee Issued an analysis of the statement on Jewish religion in the Soviet Union made public here last month by the Soviet delegation to the United Nations. "Analysis by AJC specialists showed that references to the Soviet law in thL document were carefully culled from a few permissive sections of a sweeping anti-religious decree issued by the Soviets twenty-six years ago," the American Jewish Committee pointed out. It stresses the fact that the .Soviet statement made no attempt to deal with "documented evidence that Jewish cultural and religious Institutions in the U.S.SR have been systematically liquidated; nor did the Soviet disclaimer mention the fate of 'missing' Jewish writers in Russia, or what happened to extinguish Jewish communal life in Hiorbidjnn which was proclaimed a, Jewish autonomous region more than twenty-five years ago." The AJC emphasizes that although the recent Geneva Conference gave hope to the world that the "cold war" mrjy be eased, a large part of "the acid test will be whether Communist policies change significantly to demonstrate respect for human rights and the sanctity of the individual." "Klenvntary justice demands that the Kuviet Union release all Jewish leaders jailed because of their communal activities; return deported Jews to their homes; per. mit freedom of religion* worship and education: allow Jewish religious c*xnmuuities and cultural instltutioiK to administer their affairs freely; allow emigration to those Jews who wish to do so." the American Jewish Committee says, referring to a resolution which it adoplcd to tills effect last January.
