Forced out of existence in Europe by the Holocaust nearly half a century ago, the B’nai B’rith Youth Organization is moving ahead with its plans to return to the European continent in force in the immediate future. The focus is France, where two chapters — one in Paris with 80 members and the other in Lille with 60– have already been put into operation. Other chapters are being formed in Nice, Nancy and Strasbourg, France, and in Belgium, Luxumbourg and Austria.
