DETROIT JEWISH NEWS-3 Fiiday, July 9, 1951 Mrs. Roosevelt's Plea for Li:S.-Israel Friendship - NCV YORK, (JTA)—A warn- ing that nothing should be done to impair American friendship for Israel was sounded by Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, addressing a dinner-meeting of the Israel bond organization. She called for continuation by the United States government of "every proper aid and support" for Israel. "Our leadership," she said, "should work to bring peace and stability to the entire Middle East area. And one of the most important means of achieving that end is to express our friend- ship and our sympathy for Israel and its brave people." Stressing the importance of American- Israel friendship, she declared that the two nations are 'linked by a. unity of purpose and brotherhood that transcends the interrelationship of well-being and mutual security." "There can be no question of the fact that the people of Israel are one of our most im- portant allies among the forces of democracy in the world to- day," she said. "And there can be no question where Israel will stand in an eventuality that represents a threat to the forces of democracy in the Mediter- ranean area." She asserted that "the sooner ISrael attains its economic independence, t h e sooner will the Arab States ac- cept the fact of Israel's per- manence and the sooner will peace come to the Middle East." Famed Heidelberg Cemetery Desecrated by Vandals HEIDELBERG, (JTA) — The old Jewish cemetery in this uni- versity town, located in a built- up section close to the famed Heidelberg Castle, has been des- ecrated by youngsters digging up the centuries-old bodies and playing games with the bones. The police are bringing a com- plaint against the parents of the perpetrators for having failed to exercise due supervision, MILLIONS OF BOTTLES SO-LD NCRAC Proposes Ten-Point Program Regulating Government Investigations National Jewish religious bod- ies representing all branches of the Jewish faith and national and local Jewish , community re- lations organizations, through their coordinating body, the Na- tional Community Relations Ad- visory Council, proposed - to the Senate Rules Committee a 10- point legislative program for regulating the procedures of Congress investigating commit- tees.

J. attorney, testifying for the Na- tional Community Relations Ad- visou Council, asserted a legiti- mate need for Congressional in- German Plot to Oust Indemnification Chief STUTTGART, (JTA) — Ger- man officials of the State of Wuerttemberg seem to be plan- ning to get rid of Dr. Otto Kues- ter, one of the highest placed friends in Germany of Jewry and Israel, as Commissioner of Indemnification for Wuerttem- berg. Dr. Kuester's resignation as deputy chief of the German team of negotiators at The Hague together with a public blast at Bonn officials who were blocking an agreement with Is- rael and the Jewish Claim Con- ference, has been credited with helping push through the Ger- man-Israel reparations pact. During the past year he voiced trenchant criticisms of Federal legislation to indemnify individ- ual Jewish victims of the Nazis. . In an apparent attempt to force Dr. Kuester out of office, Wuerttemberg Premier Reinhold Mueller has introduced legisla- tion redesigning the restitution and indemnification set-up in the state in such a fashion as to reduce Dr. Kuester's functions and authority to such a state that he will be forced to resign as a matter of self-respect. The new strategy seems to have replaced a former attempt to secure his outright dismissal. vestigations but deplored the 1"excesses" of certain members of investigating committees. Cohen is chairman of the coordinating council's Committee on Civil Liberties. Cohen presented a prepared statement, 'signed by himself and Bernard H. Trager, Bridge- port, Conn.. attorney., chairman of NCRAC. The statement sets out the following ten "guiding principles" for the regulation of investigating committees: 1. Limitation of the scope of Congres- sional investigations "to those matters in which' Congress may legislate or exer- cise any other power specifically granted by the Constitution." 2. Prohibition of one-man subcommittees. 3. "Due notice of meetings and other committee action" to all committee mem- bers and adequate provision for minor- ity reports. 4. No release of derogaory material before opportunity for rebuttal, • and si- multaneous release of both rebuttal tes- timony and original charges. 5. Right of cross-examination for "person or organizations against whom charges are made in public hearings"; an opportunity for such persons or or- ganization to "present their side of the case publicly as soon as possible -after the making of the charge" and in equal- ly public circumstances. 6. Keeping confidential all "material in the files of an investigating committee not previously released the form of an official report." 7. No public evaluation of a person under investigation until the inquiry has been completed: 8. No radio or television coverage of a hearing over a witness' objection. 9. "Investigating committees. should be empowered to invoke the aid of the courts in compelling answers to ques- tions. Constitutional objections and ques- tions of privilege raised by a witness should be tested through summary ju- dicial procedures rather than by defenses in criminal prosecutions." 10. Empowering of both Houses of Congress to exercise supervision over their committees. Arab General Receives U.S. Medal in Washington WASHINGTON, (JTA)—Gen- Matthew B.
