A demand that the United Nations uphold the Declaration of Human Rights by taking immediate action to end the wave of anti-Semitism in the Communist world, was voiced here today at a meeting of the International Union of Socialist Youth.
A resolution adopted by the meeting viewed with “the greatest alarm” the recent evidence that the Communists are using “persecution and oppression” against the Jews. It labelled as a “false attempt to get moral justification for such acts” the Communist levelling of charges against “Jewish capitalism” and “Zionism.”
