UN Security Council Rejects Arabs' Reform Congregations' Union
Charges of Israel's Truce Violations Demands U. S. Help to Israel

LAKE SUCCESS—USD—The
Security Council rebuffed the
efforts of Jordan and Egypt to
charge Israel with armistice vio-
lations.
The United States, the United
Kingdom and France joined in a
resolution upholding Israel's con-
tention that the Security Council
was not the proper forum for
such complaints.
The action came after six meet-
ings, during which the Arab
states sought to substantiate their
charges while Israel contended
that the Arab states were seek-
ing to exploit the Security Coun-
cil for propaganda purposes.
But in one important aspect the
Arab venture boomeranged, for
major powers associated them-
• selves with Israel's countercharge
that Egypt's blockade of the Suez
Canal was illegal.
The joint resolution sustained
Israel on five points:
1. It reminds the parties con-
cerned that the armistice agree-
ments are binding and calls
upon them to consent in hand-
ling the present complaints ac-
cording to procedures establish-
ed in the agreements.
2. It notes that a special com-
mittee has been formed to im-
plement Article 8 of the Israel-
Jordan armistice agreement, and
expresses the hope that this
committee will carry out its func-
tions which include working out
arrangements for access to Mount
Scopus.
3. It authorizes Brig. Gen.
William Riley, UN chief of staff
in Palestine, to recommend to
Israel, Egypt and other Arab
states the steps he may consider
necessary to control by mutual
agreement movement of no-
madic Arabs across interna-
tional frontiers or armistice
lines. The resolution gives no
support to charges by Egpyt
that Israel had illegally expell-
ed nomadic Arab tribes.
4. It urges all states in the area
to take all steps that will lead to
a settlement of issues between
them,
5. The resolution ignores Jor-
dan's claim against Israel con-
cerning the Naharayim area.
The resolution took note of
Israel's agreement to withdraw
from Bir Qattar.
Ambassador Abba Eban sub-
mitted a resolution calling upon
the government of Egpyt to re-
move restrictions against Suez

shipping, to abandon its blockade
practices and to restore the free
movement of legitimate shipping
through the Suez Canal.
Sir Gladwyn Jebb, representa
tive of Great Britain, pointed to
the threefold importance of the
Suez question.
Imposition of these restrictions
by Egypt involves the legal ques
tion of freedom of passage
through the Suez Canal, he de
clared. The restrictions have
made it impossible to carry of
by tankers through the Suez to
the refinery at Haifa. The matter
thus concerns not only Israel,
but also many other governments
which depend upon the output at
Haifa for their oil supplies.
He suggested that the political
importance of the continuation of
these restrictions could hardly
be over-emphasized. Whatever
the rights of the Egyptian gov-
ernment may be in this matter,
it must surely be a matter of re-
gret that the political situation in
the Middle East should remain
unsettled and that the continu-
ance of these restrictions so long
after the armistice agreements
should contribute to the tension
and uneasiness in the Middle
East. . •

Eban expressed Israel's sat-
isfaction that the Council dis-
cussions had vindicated Israel's
position on the Naharayim
complaint. He pointed out Is-
rael's deep resentment that so
"flimsy and frivolous" a charge
should serve as an occasion for
accusing Israel of aggression
and of threatening it with vio-
lence.
This experience will lead
United Nations members to look
with suspicion on all complaints
put forward by any party which
evades the proper procedures of
the Mixed Armistice Commission,
he declared.
He added that Brig Gen. Riley's
testimony had revealed that the
Egyptian charge that Israel had
violated the international front-
ier or the demilitarized zone of
El Auja is "frivolous and irre-
sponsible."

CLEVELAND — (WNS) — A
plea to the United States govern-
ment to extend financial aid to
Israel in greater measure than
ever, so that the Jewish state can
achieve a self-sustaining econ-
omy, was made by the delegates
at the 41st biennial assembly of
the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations.
Addressing the 2,000 delegates,
Dr. Maurice Eisendrath declared,
"It is high time that the ironic
contradiction cease between our
government's generous assistance
even to fascist Spain and to other
effete and reactionary govern-
ments the world over and its
patent and inexcusable failure to
allocate out of the billions that
we have expended, such sums as
are desperately needed by the
lone bastion of democracy in the
Middle East which is Israel."
Other resolutions passed dur-
ing the four-day conclave urged
equal religious rights for non-
Orthodox Jews in Israel and ap-
proved the establishment of a
voluntary rabbinical placement
plan to appoint rabbis to pulpits

Israeli Standards
Ilia
e ,h Author Says

"The central impetus in the
Near and Middle East in improv-
ing education and standards of
living is and will be Israel."
This is the conclusion reached
by Gerard Swope, former presi-
dent of the General Electric Com-
pany, in an article on "Standards
of Living in Asia" in the Decem-
ber issue of the Atlantic Monthly.
Swope bases his conclusion on
the higher standard of living in
Israel in comparison with other
countries in the East. He has just
completed an on-the-spot study
of the cost of certain items which
form an index to the standards of
living in those counties.
The total time in Israel, he
writes, to buy a quart of milk, a
dozen eggs, a pound of bread and
a pound of butter was two hours,
45 minutes. In Pakistan it was 48
hours, 30 minutes; India, 14
hours, 16 minutes; Malaya, 13
hours, 52 minutes; Philippines, 10
hours, 40 minutes, and Japan. 19
hours, 15 minutes. In the United
States it is one hour, 28 minutes.

Jewish Singer Rockets
to Fame at Metropolitan

NEW YORK—(WNS)—Roberta
Peters, a 20-year-old Jewish girl,
is the musical sensation of this
city and those familiar with her
art, say she will reach the top
rung of the operatic ladder.
Miss Peters was catapulted to
sudden fame when Nadine Con-
nor, who was to have played one
of the leading roles in the Metro-
politan Opera production of Don
Giovanni took ill.
Miss Peters, who never sang in
opera before, was called in as a
substitute and her performance
was so powerful that it enraptured
both public and critics.
Miss Peters was born Peterson
and neither of her parents, Solo-
mon and Ruth, were ever musi-
cians. Her father is a shoe sales-
man.
Although both of her parents
are native-born, they are ortho-
dox Jews and they gave their
talented daughter a good Jewish
education. The young artist speaks
French, German, Italian and Yid-
dish.
When the Petersons were mar-
ried some 21 years ago, the

famous Metropolitan Opera singer
and former cantor, Jan Peerce,
sang at the wedding. Peerce had
been a good friend of Roberta's
grandfather.

Before the grandfather died he
confided to Peerce that his grand-
child had musical talent. It was
after this conversation that Peerce
advised Roberta to take music
lessons from William Herman.
Thus began the musical career
that brought Roberta to fame.

Under the plan, rabbis will he
classified according to length of
time in service and marital status
while those qualifying will be
inducted into the armed forces.
This action is part of a nation-
wide campaign by the division of
religious activities of the Nation-
al Jewish Welfare Board to re-
cruit more than 100 Jewish chap-
lains for the armed forces.
Highlighting the convention
was an address by Abba Eban,
Israel ambassador to the United
States, in which he declared "the
support which Israel haS given
to the defense of world peace and
conciliation by the United Nations
is in full conformity both with
the spirit of modern Israel and
with the heritage of Israel of
old, from whose writings the con-
cept of universal brotherhood
was derived."

Last Yiddish Daily.
Closes Up in England

LONDON — (WNS) — After
more than 37 years of publication
the only Yiddish-language daily
newspaper, the London Jewish
Times, announced it has been
forced to close down by rising
publication costs and by the fail-
ure of Jewish organizations and
individuals to come to its rescue
in difficult times.
The newspaper was founded
by the late Morris Meyer, a lead-
ing exponent of Zionism in this
country, who died during World
War II.
He was succeeded as editor
and publisher by his son Harry,
The "Jewish Post," a weekly, is
the only Yiddish paper now pub-
lished in London.
