"In a number ; of recent instances," states Eman -1 uel Muravchik, National Director of the JLC, "Negro groups and individuals have taken part in j protest actions organized by the j Jewish community. This a most; j gratifying trend because it demon , strates that some Negro civil ! rights activists see their battle for i human rights as a universal one, applying to all of the oppressed, no matter what their religion Or skin color." As illustration of this trend, j the Jewish Labor Committee Lead ! er cited three recent events. j On January 14, he said, when I all of the major Jewish organiza- j tions demonstrated in front of a ! number of German Consulates for j J an extension of the statute 6f j I limitations governing the indict-; ; rfient of Nazi criminals, Negroes | J participated in the picket lines in | I at least two cities, Detroit and j Philadelphia. In the former city, | h« said, the Jewish Labor Com mittee representative, Jack Car per, was designated by the Jewish Community Relations Council to j •invite Negro participation in the 1 picketing. The response was a | | large delegation from th« local I chapters of the Congress of Ra cial Equality and the National As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People. In addition, the demonstration was officially en dorsed by two local Negro labol • organizations, the Trade Union j Leadership Conference and the Metropolitan Detroit Labor Cpm munity Association.

C- | FUTURE CATCH—Trout such as those held aloft by Chilean boy will soon be produced in ponds constructed by former alum dwellers who have formed a fishing cooperative in a desert towa with the help of U.S. churches. « It sounds like a fish story, but it's true. In one of the driest, hottest of deserts—near the town of Calama, Chile—4o men once resigned to life as slum dwellers have set up a fishing cooperative ■with the aim of producing and marketing 100,000 rainbow trout a year. They have built and stocked 100 ponds each accommodating 1,000 trout. Cement fop building the simple spring-fed ponds, and a technical advisor for the proj ect, were provided through funds furnished in part by Protestant churches in the United States. I The effort of these men to be come self-sufficient through their fish business will also benefit Calama's many underprivileged. It will provide a cheap source of protein to fill the dietary void created by the absence of the meat they cannot afford. The co-op will sell trout for about one fourth the price of meat. This project is one of many ef- - forts aided by One Great H6ur of Sharing, an annual appeal which will be obseryed in numer- i Students to Rebuild 2 Churches JONESBORO, La.—With mate-1 rials supplied by CORE and labor [' volunteered by Southern Univer-1 • sity students and local residents, the two churches burned to the ground on January 17 will be re built.
