The Synagogue Council of America today submitted a memorandum to the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration urging that provisions be made to satisfy the religious needs of the Jewish population in liberated areas. Similar memoranda have been submitted by other religious bodies.

The Council memorandum stated that the following three needs were of paramount importance; kosher feeding, reconstitution of synagogue communities, and re-establishment of rabbinical and educational functions.
