UN Committee Approves Reintegration
Fund; Sharett Asks Israel to Cooperate

--.

LAKE SUCCESS, (JTA) —The
United Nations Ad Hoc Political I
Committee adopted without a
dissenting vote a joint resolu-
tion setting up a reintegration
fund of $30,000,000 to be utilized
for projects requested by any
government in the Near East for
the permanent re-establishment
of Palestine refugees and their
removal from relief.
The resolution, introduced by
France, Turkey, Britain and the
United States also provides for
t h e appointment of a "ne-
gotiating committee" of seven
or more members to sound out
UN member governments on
their willingness to contribute
on a voluntary basis both to
this Palestine refugee fund and
to the proposed relief and re-
habilitation program for Korea.
The resolution notes that suf-
ficient contributions to carry
out the previous works and re-
lief program in the Near East
had not been forthcoming, and
the negotiating committee, it is
hoped, can redress that situa-
tion.
The resolution also provides
1or the raising of $20,000,000 for
continuation of direct relief to
refugees until mid - 1952. The
Secretary General of the United
Nations is meanwhile author-
ized to make available from the
UN's working capital fund $5,-
000,000 to finance beginning op-
erations, but to be repaid by
the end of 1951.
Israel has indicated that it
is willing to discuss the terms
of some compensation payments
which would go into the reinte-
gration fund. The vote on the
resolution was 43-0, with six ab-
stentions. Israel voted in favor.
It must now be approved by a
two-thirds vote of the General
Assembly.

Young Jewish Singer
Heads Bowery Cast

Eddie Fisher, young Jewish
baritone, who has been voted
the most popular singer of the
year, will head the new show
opening Monday, at Frank Bar-I
baro's Bowery.
Fisher skyrocketed to national s
fame as Eddie Cantor's latest
protege, and has toured from
coast to coast with the famous
Comedian. He is an RCA ,Victor
recording star.
; His recordings include "My
Bolero, " "Foolish Tears,"
"Sorry," "Yesterday's Rose s,"
`'Am I Wasting My Time?," "I
Love You Because" and his two
latest releases, "Where in the
World" and "A Little Bit Inde-
pendent" on which he is teamed
for the first time with RCA's
ilhoutstanding arranger - 1 e a d e r,
Hugo Winterhalter.
Comedian Larry Kent, a fav-
orite with Detroiters, will hold
over for a fourth week as the
feature of the new show. An-
other ' local favorite, M i c k e y
Woolf, and his orchestra, stay
on as the bandstand attraction.
Mickey and his brbther Sam
team up for some unexcelled
Vocal entertainment.

Israel had a moral obligation
as a United Nations member
state to contribute to the pro-
posed reintegration fund for
assistance to Palestine re-
fugees and a special obliga-
tion, which is to start paying
compensation for abandoned
Arab lands in Israel. "We are
ready to do so on the under-
standing that this compensa-
tion will go into the reinte-
gration fund," he said.

Sharett appeared on a na-
tionwide radio interview pro-:
gram with UN correspondents.
He said that Israel had taken
in refugees running in numbers
to five figures but that the
country was no longer capable
of absorbing additional numbers.
He emphasized that vast op-
portunities, however, exist in
t h e neighboring Arab states,
where the refugees would in ad-
dition be re-established under
more congenial conditions.
