JERUSALEM (JTA)—Premier
David Ben Gurion told the op-
position in the Israel Parliament
that the government will not
change its policy of deporting
Arab infiltrees.
"If Parliament desires to
change that policy it had bet-
ter elect a new government, but
as long as the Parliament ad-
heres to the policy outlined at
the inception of the state the
police and army will continue
to search for and deport infil-
trees," he said. Replying to
charges of irregularities during
searches for infiltrees, he said
that complaints should be made
to the Ministries of Defense and
Police and persons responsible
for misdeeds will be punished.
Moshe Erem, Mapam deputy,
charged that during the raid
last week on Abu Gosh, Arab
village near • Jerusalem, police
and troops had deported chil-
dren registered for school, per-
sons living in the village for a
year and in some cases mothers
had been deported and their
children left behind. He de-
manded that the government
restore the villagers' confidence
in Israel by reuniting families
broken up by the deportations.
Erem was joined by an Arab
deputy, Mohamed Said el Zabi,
of the Nazareth Democratic
Party, who complained of the
"atrocious" behavior of the po-
lice and soldiers involved in the
raid and charged that they de-
ported children and aged peo-
ple. •

NEW YORK (JTA)—The As-
sociation of Jewish Chaplains of
the U. S. Armed Forces made
public a resolution giving full
support to "the efforts of the
president of the United States
in his appeal to the Soviet
Union to cooperate in the effort
to end hostilities in Korea."
The resolution commends the
president's determination "to
solve the present crisis by work-
ing with and through the ma-
chinery of the United Nations."
The resolution calls upon
Americans of all faiths "to pray
and to work for the triumph of
peace, freedom and democracy
in all lands." It emphasizes that
"in this atomic era, as in all
past and future ages, war is not
inevitable and peace is man's
proper hope and goal."
The Association declined to
support, for the time being, a
proposal to have the Jewish
chaplains' flag become the of-
ficial religious flag of the Amer-
ican synagogue and take the
place of the Zionist flag.
The Association issued a call
to the American Rabbinate "to
urge and inspire the entire
American Jewish community to
dedicate itself to the strength-
ening of Israel" through: 1. A
greater intensification of the
religious spirit, both in America
and in Israel; 2. A more inti-
mate reciprocal cultural affilia-
tion; 3. A fuller exchange of
scientific knowledge and a closer
economic association, including
the support of the United Jew-
ish Appeal; 4. Constant Ameri-
can political alertness for the
protection of Israel.
Rabbi Herbert E. Eskin of De-
troit was elected a vice presi-
dent of the Association.
