PARIS, (jTA)—One Jew waa killed, seven were injured serious¬ ly, arid a number of others weire hurt when Ifoslema opened a series of attacks against the Jew¬ ish quarter ot Oran, Algeria, last week, according to authoritative news that reached here and caus¬ ed grave concern among French Jews.
The fighting started when snip¬ ers and other marauders belong¬ ing to the ETiN, the Moslem inde¬ pendence movement, drove through the Jewish quarter, fir¬ ing at random at homes and pass- ersby. In this Initial attack, at least three Jews were seriously wounded and a numiber of otheirs were injured.
THE NEXT MORNING, de¬ fense units cornered another car of FLN maraudiers, driving down one of the main streets of the Jewish section. Boulevard Joffre. The defenders opened fire, killing four of the five men in the car, wounding the fifth. Almost Im¬ mediately, crowds of Arabs flow^- ed into the Jewiish quarter, brajid- ishing rifles, pistols, knives and metal bars. The Invaders were driven back but not before at least four others were seriously injured and one Jew, Bile Dljlan, 84, a retired school teacher, had been murdered.
The news came to Pnria just as the Fohd Social Julf UulHe, the central French Jewish wel fare organization, convened here for its annual general conference. In attendance was Grand Raibbi Rahmln Naouri, ot tiie Algerian city of Bone.
"1 CANNOT FIND WORDS to
describe to you the ang^sh and misery ot the Algerian Jews after seven years of murder, tears and mourning," the white - bearded grand rabbi told the conference. He predicted that most of Al¬ geria's 150,000 Jews will be driven into emigration, abandoning their homes and possessions, going to France   "deprived   of   the   barest

necessities. They will need," he said, "not only social help but also Jewish warmth and kind¬ ness." He reminded the French Jews, however, that the Algerian Jews will bring with them also "a great spiritual heritage and traditional Jewish values."
Baron Guy de Rothschild pre¬ sided at the B^SJU meeting, as well as France's Chief RaiWbl, Dr. Ja¬ cob Kaplan; Israel's Minister to France. Zeev Shek; and a repre¬ sentative of the JFrench Ministry for Repatriates. The Algerian re¬ port electrified and underscored dramatically the main thesne of the conference, which W£is con¬ cerned with plans for absorption of the Influx of Jewish. Immigra¬ tion from Algeria.
JOSCPH WKDU chairman of the FSJU absorption committee, told the conference he has Investi¬ gated the situation of Algerian Jewry "at great length." With great emotion, he told the oon¬ ference: "Most of us Ignore the facta behind the Algerian tragedy. We know nothing Or little about the gradual but Incessant inifliltra- tion of the Arab masses into the Jewish quarters, /here they mur¬ der the Jewish Inhabitants, so as to drive them out and ooculpy their homes  and  businesses."
Weil predicted that Jewish children from Algeria will- start pouring into France during the next few weeks. He said that many Jewish parents, atlU de¬ termined "to stick it out," do not wish to endanger the lives of their children and will ship them to France.
Baron de Rothschild reviewed the FSJU finances, declaring that the goal this year of 4,000,000 new French francs ($800,000) Will be "far from sufficient" for the Im¬ mediate needs of the JewisJl re¬ fugees from Algeria. The con¬ ference voted to re-examine the problem and try to work out concrete plans for the ajbsoripblon of the refugees. ''¦•.,
