Israel Scientists
Invited to U.S.
WASHINGTON, (JTA)—Israel
scientists may be among those
from many nations to partici-
pate in the first of several prof-
' advancing President Eisen-
, hower's "Atoms for Peace" plan.
United States authorities have
o man u ni cated with Israel
about a special four-week course
in radioisotope techniques, to
begin next May at the Oak
Ridge Institute of Nuclear
Studies.
At Oak Ridge, scientists will
learn new techniques and inter-
change knowledge already ac-
quired through application and
theory.
Israel scientists may make
contributions, owing to their
I studies at the Department of
Isotope Research in the Weiz-
mann Institute of Science at
Rehovoth, and the application
of research at the Hadassah-
Hebrew University Medical Cen-
ter in Jerusalem where radio-
active isotopes are used in the
diagnosis and treatment of can-
cer, blood diseases, and thyroid
conditions.
I The Oak Ridge study group
will precede an international
scientific conference, proposed
for the summer of 1955, to which
Israel will be invited.
I (In Israel, the Parliament's
Foreign Affairs and Security
Committee heard a special re-
port from a group of scientists
about research work being done
there in atomic energy and in
the field of heavy water. The
scientists were from the Hebrew
University in Jerusalem and the
Weizmann Institute at Reho-
voth.)

Israel Delegates to UN Outline
Important Gains in General Assembly
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (JTA)
—Israel's impact upon the
United Nations General Assem-
bly was far greater than the
size of the Jewish State might
indicate, members of the Israel
delegation to the UN told cor-
respondents here.
Evaluating the results of the
General Assembly which ad-
journed its session last week, the
Israel delegates said:
1. Israel gained an important
victory when the Assembly vot-
ed to extend until 1960 the life
of the United Nations Relief and
Works Agency for Palestine
Refugees.
2. Israel benefited directly, yet
less obviously, from explosion of ,
the myth that there was a solid
bloc in the United Nations corn- I
posed of states belonging to the
Arab League, Asian nations and
Latin American republics.
3. Israel's prestige was en-
hanced, and its influence in-
creased, by selection of the Jew-
ish State and members of its
delegation for representation on
a number of important commis-
sions and committees.
4. Israel's influence behind the
scenes was felt and, at times,
solicited by many delegations
here, including some represent-
ing the Big Powers.
The survey of Israel's position
was given the correspondents
principally by Mordecai R. Kid-
ron, Permanent Deputy Repre-
sentative to the UN, who was
assisted by Arthur C. Liveran,
First Secretary of the Israel
delegation, and Mrs. Zena Har-
man, who represented Israel
during the Assembly on the very
important Social, Humanitarian
and Cultural Committee. Liver-
an served on the Budget and Ad-
ministrative. Committee, ..during
•he Assembly session, and Was
that committee's rapporteur.
An indication of Israel's pres-
tige in the UN was seen in the
fact that this small country is
a member, and has again been
designated to membership on
the Assembly's "peace watch-
dog" group, the Peace Observa-
tion Commission. Mrs. Harman,
since 1951 a member of the
executive committee of the Unit-
ed Children's Fund, was elected
to the second highest post in
UNICEF, the job of chairman of
the all-important Program Corn-
mittee which decides what
UNICEF shall do, where, and at
what cost.
Liveran was named to a com-
mittee to consider review of pro-
cedures of the UN's administra-
tive tribunal. Dr. Jacob Robin-
son was selected to membership
on a commission that will at-
tempt to find a definition of the
term "aggression." Abba Eban,
with Kidron as alternate, is a
member of the "peace watchdog"
commission.
