If nothing apparent was be-

sistent efforts were being made
behind the scenes to bring Isra-
el. and the Arab states together.
It might be that in the not too
distant future a "surprise might
be sprung on the world" in ref-
erence to the Middle East as had
recently been done on Trieste,
he continued.
Dr. Cohen made his statement
at a dinner in honor of Chief
Rabbi Isaac Herzog of Israel,
who is currently visiting here to
help further a project for the
establishment of a religious
center in Jerusalem.
Rabbi Herzog told the 520
guests at the dinner that Jews
in all parts of the world would
remain loyal to the countries in
which they live but would al-
ways have a "warm corner in
their hearts for the small land
from which the word of the law
first went forth."
"Even those who at one time
erased Zion not only from their
hearts but also from their pray-
er books now recognize Zion as
the spiritual center of the Jew-
ish people," he added:

thinking, Mr. Setzer announced.

Mrs. Eisenhower Gets
Rug Made in Israel
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9, (JTA)
—Mrs. Dwight Eisenhower was
presented today with an Israel-
made rug; woven by two Israeli
women of Libyan origin, who
called at the White House with
Ambassador and Mrs. Eban and
Mrs. Reuven Shiloah, wife of Is-
rael's Minister Plenipotentiary.
The weavers, Mazal Hasan, 17,
and Chanah Hagah, 58, who set-
tled in Israel in 1950, were
brought to Washington by the
Israel Embassy to participate in
a "World Trade Fair" now un-
der way here. Demonstrating
Israel handicrafts, the rug mak-
ers weave before the public as
part of the Israel demonstra-
tion. The rug presented to Mrs.
Eisenhower is of unique design,
typical of the ancient craft of
Libyan Jews, who_ settled in the
Israel village of Porath. The
project was organized as a way
of demonstrating the transition
achieved in Israel by immigrants
of primitive background.
