The 21-member delegation of the American Jewish Congress left here today for Chile to begin the next leg of their tour of Latin American countries after concluding a weeklong visit to Argentina. During their stay here, the delegation members met with leaders of all sectors of Jewish life here.
Before their departure, Will Maslow, executive director of the organization, who headed the delegation, praised the vitality of Jewish life here. The Buenos Aires Jewish community, he said, “has organizational structure, dedicated leadership and the will to survive Jewishly, auguring well for the future. American Jewry can profit in many ways by the Argentine example.”
The Argentine Jewish community, Mr. Maslow asserted, “neither needs nor desires interventions by American Jewish organizations in defending its own interests and the American Jewish Congress agrees thoroughly with this point of view.”
