Important New Year Messages To World Jewry
PalcHtinc Chief I^ibbl
.lerusalem, Sept. 14 (.IT.A)—In, a .special broadcast on the Paf estine radio Chief Rabbi Isaac Herzog today called on the Jew¬ ish people to prepare themselves spiritually for the early fulfill- menl of its "2,000-year-old pray¬ er" for Zlon'a restoration.
Referring to the UNSCOP rec¬ ommendations for Palestine, he said they contain some very "painful points" for the Jews, but that they nevertheless repre¬ sent a "new International chap¬ ter in the national revival of the Jews." Rabbi Herzog casti¬ gated with equal vigor the vio¬ lence of the British Government against the Jewish refugees seeking to enter Palestine and the extremists against the Pal¬ estine Government. "Zion will be redeemed by justice, not by the spilling of blood," he said. British Chief Rabbi LONDON, Sept. 14 (JTA)— Acting Chief Rabbi of the Brit¬ ish Kmplre Harris M. Lazarus, in a Rosh Hashanah message released here today, declared that "lilte Job, Israel today is challenged and smitten and has withstood many tests.
"Our faith, our services to re¬ ligion, culture and civilization, our reclaiming the wastes and swamps in a derelict Palestine— all these ¦ entitle us to recogni¬ tion as a nation in the commun¬ ity o( nations and to seeing otir dream of, the promised restora¬ tion of Palestine as a Jewish (Continiied on Page 8)

Anti-Jewish Outbreaks In England No
Cause For Alarm, London Lawyer Says
NEW YORK (JTA)—The re¬ cent anti-Semitic outbreaks in Britain, although undoubtedly serious, were no cause for great alarm, William Frankel, Lon¬ don lawyei' and representative of the American Jewish Com¬ mittee in England, reported at a luncheop here.
Mr. Frankel traced the out¬ breaks to postwar Increase of activity by fascists, due to their release after the termination of hostilities, as well as to econ- onfilc pressures and the fact that Jews represent the only minori¬ ty in an otherwise very homo¬ genous population. He said he was   "not   personally   worried'
alKiut the attacks, wiilch were incited mostly by hooligans, bo cause there had l>cen strong po lice action and because the atti tude of the press had been ex tremely responsible and en¬ couraging.
While the British Jews are largely pro-Zionist, Mr. Frankel stated, Zionism had lost support among non-Jews, due mainly to events in Palestine. He declared that there is s^me restraint in Britain against Arnerlcan Jews, because of wide publicity given the views of pro-terrorist groups and the poor press given to more responsible American Jew¬ ish groups.
United States will support the suggestion of the Unitsd Na¬ tions Secretary General Trygve Lie that tho U. N. General A.-i- scmbiy, whicli opened on Tues¬ day, set up a speriai .'i.'j-nalinn working coramitiuo lo deal with tho Pale.stinc (lueslion. it was ,learned   Irero.

(ievelnj>- ment and fiscal [policies," and endorsing in principle Ihe p;ini- tion plan proposed by the sev enman majority of Iho United 'Nations Special Committee on Palestine.
Describing the UNSCOP ma¬ jority report as representing "a statesmanlike and sincere effort to provide a workable compro¬ mise solution of the rtifficuU and complex Palestine problem." the authors of the brief point out that the majority proposal meets two of the fundamental requirements of a just solution— insurance against governmental or administrative obstacles to immediate and continuing large- scale Je-wish immigration and the  establishment  of a  Jewish
