Rising Israel Costs

UN Palestine Conciliation Plan
°"?' Will Involve Cost of $4,000,000

PARIS, (JTA)—The proposed
conciliation in Palestine will cost
the United Nations $4,092,000 for
the next 10 months—$6. for each
adult Israeli and Arab to be con-
ciliated in Palestine.
At the start, the projected UN
conciliation commission would
have 500 military observers, 107
internationally recruited officials
and 72. technical personnel. Al-
together, the proposed three
grand conciliators will have a
staff of .679.
The 10 months of conciliation
will cost, less than three days
that war in Palestine has cost
the combatants. It will cost less
than one week's additional ex-
penditure by Israel for defense
against Egypt alone.

Chief of Israeli Police
To Study U. S. Methods
TEL AVIV, (JTA)—Yehezkel
Sahar, Inspector General of the
Israeli police, will come to the
United States soon to study new
police investigation and organ-
ization methods.
The Histadruth Council con-
ference ratified by a vote of 69
to 38 the dissolution of the sep-
arate headquarters of Palmach,
the striking force of the former
Haganah. The 69 votes were
cast by members of Mapai, the
right-wing labor group within
Histadruth, and the minority
ballot was cast by members of
Mapam, left-wing segment of the
Israeli Labor Federation. The
General Zionists within the His-
tadruth—Haoeved Hazioni—ab-
stained from voting.
The Faluja Controversy
Egyptian units, supported Dy
about 15 tanks, launched a
heavy attack against the Jewish
settlement of Nirim, south of
Gaza, in the Negev, an official
Israeli communique said. T h e
attack was repulsed by night-
fall. The government also. re-
vealed that in a recent clash in
the Negev, the Egyptians lost a
battalion, with the number of
dead alone above 100.
Commenting on a suggestion
made by chief UN observer Gen.
William Riley that the Israelis
permit another supply convoy
to proceed to the Faluja area,
where a large force of Egyptian
troops are encircled, an Israeli
Government spokesman said the
Faluja question depends on the
outcome of armistice negotia-
tions.
The spokesman also said .that
the 'Israelis could. mot understand
why a minor liaison meeting be-
tween the Jews and Iraqis last
Sunday was "blown up" by Gen.
Riley. He said that Israel is
prepared to negotiate an armis-
ticelwith the Iraqis—or with any
other Arab army or state—pro-
vided the Iraqi Government
formally appoints representa-
tives to such talks.

Acclaim Opening of New Road
JERUSALEM, (JTA)—Elation
was felt throughout Israel over
the new link established be-
tween Jerusalem and the coastal
plain of the Jewish state through
the newly-built 25-mile road
whose formal opening was
marked in impressive ceremon-
ies at which Premier David Ben
Gurion, members of his cabinet
and high military officials parti-
cipated.
The road was named "Derech
Hagvurah"—the Highway of Va 7
lor. Israeli aircraft, tanks and
armored cars were displayed
during the ceremony which in-
cluded the dedication of a 40-
foot obelisk honoring the mem-
ory of Israeli fighters who were
killed in the battle for Jeru-
salem.
"Today is an historic day,"
Premier Ben Gurion said, ad-
dressing t h e Jewish troops.
"With our own efforts and with
the blood of our fighters we
broke through the enemy's siege
of Jerusalem, relieving our eter-
nal capital."

Praise Israeli Constitution
NEW YORK, (JTA) — Out-
standing American authorities
on international and constitu-
tional law have commented fav-
orably on the draft of the Israeli
constitution. The full text ap-
pears on pages 12-13 of this issue.
The draft combines aspects of
the American, French and Brit-
ish systems of government with
some of the fundamentals of
ancient Jewish law. It abolishes
the death penalty, separates state
and church, guarantees free ac-
cess to Palestine's Holy Places,
establishes freedom of worship
for all sects, draws no distinc-
tion among Jews, Christians and
Moslems in their rights as citi-
zens, and goes beyond any ex-
isting constitution --, including
that of the United States —' in
setting forth basic human rights.

Negotiate Faluja Release
LAKE SUCCESS, (JTA)—The
Israeli Government has, agreed
to begin negotiations for the re-
lease of Egyptian forces- encir-
cled in the .Faluja area, in the
NegeV, 'acting mediator Dr.

TEL AVIV (JTA)—Minister of
Trade Dr. Fritz Bernstein de-
manded at a meeting of the State
Council that wages be frozen and
industry and agriculture concen-
trate only on the production of
necessities in order to check the
rising cost of living in the Jew-
ish state. Dr. Bernstein empha-
sized the need for an expanded
export program to aid in the ab-
sorption of new immigrants and
to pay in part for imports into
Israel.
The Ministry of Welfare, which
deals with war casualties and
losses, has expended $2,000,000
during the past six months in
helping victims of the war, Rabbi
Judah L. Fishman, Minister of
Social Welfare, told a press con-
ference. Forty per cent of the
total figure was spent in Jeru-
salem and at present a total of
7,000 cases have been handled.
Direct damage to agriculture as
a result of the fighting, Rabbi
Fishman stated, amounts to
$10,000,000.

Ralph Bunche announced. His
announcement was contained in
a communication released by
UN headquarters, to the seven-
member sub-committee of the
Security Council established to
assist him in implementing the
Council's Negev withdrawal or-
der.
Dr. Bunche's communication
quoted a note from Walter Ey-
tan, representative of the Israeli
Foreign Office, agreeing to such
negotiations.

vania will introduce a new dis-
placed persons bill on Jan. 3 that
will guarantee against all racial,
religious or nationality discrim-
mination in the displaced persons
program. Walter said his bill will
raise the number admissible
under the present law from 205,-
000 to 400,000 and will give the
refugees four years instead of
two to apply for admission.
The measure would also declare
a DP eligible for consideration if
he entered Germany, Austria or
Italy on or after Sept. 1, 1949,
and on or before April 21, 1947.
The present law sets the date as
Dec. 22, 1945, making thousands
of East European Jewish refu-
gees ineligible for admission.
Walter's bill would also remove
priority listings for agriculture
workers and would give pref-
erence instead to "farm, house-
hold, construction, clothing and
garment workers and other
workers needed in the locality in
the U.S. in which such persons
propose to reside."
A member of the House

immigration legislation, Walter
said he believes his bill will
eliminate all the discriminatory
features in the present law that
President Truman has repeatedly
objected to. Rep: Emanuel Celler
is slated to become chairman of
the Judiciary Committee.

Formation of Czech Legion
To Fight in Israel Stopped
NEW YORK, (JTA) — Ameri-
can newspapers carried dispatch..
es from Prague quoting Jewish
sources in Czechoslovakia as say-
ing that the formation of a Czech
Jewish Legion to fight in Pales-
tine had been stopped. According
to these sources, the Israeli Gov-
ernment had refused to accept the
Czech unit as a voluntary force.
Premier David Ben Gurion was
reported to have insisted that all
volunteers come to Israel as Jews
and not as members of a special
legion.
