A resolution calling upon the authorities of the Soviet Union to rehabilitate the names of Jewish writers executed during the anti-Jewish-intellectual purge of 1952, under the Stalin regime, was adopted here today by the Conference of Jewish Journalists and Educators. The parley was held under the auspices of the World Jewish Congress. The conference also called upon the Soviet Union to grant equal cultural and religious rights to Russian Jews, on a par with other minority groups.
