WASHINGTON, (JTA) — A
resolution aimed at outlawing
the discrimination against
American Jews practiced by
Saudi Arabia and other Arab
countries was introduced in the
Senate by Senators - Herbert H.
Lehman, Paul Douglas and Wil-
liam Langer.
They were joined in sponsor-
ing the resolution by Senators
Neuberger, Chavez, Humphrey,
Kennedy, Magnuson, Kuchel,
Duff, Pastore, Neeley, Jackson,
Ives, Bush, Morse, Payne and
Murray.
■
The resolution, which will be
referred to the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee for con-
sideration, will be available to
other Senators for co-sponsor-
ship.
Calling upon the' President of
the United States to proclaim
to all nations that the U.S. tol-
erates no religious discrimina-
tion against its citizens, the res-
olution provides that American
government agencies be forbid-
den to bar qualified American
citizens from military, diplo-
matic or other service in a for-
eign country solely because of
that country's religious dis-
criminatory practices.
It recommends that every
agreement between the United
States and a foreign country
should state that no U.S. citizen
may be denied travel advan-
tages, employment or trade be-
cause of religion.
The resolution emphasizes
that to protect the rights of all
American citizens abroad is a
matter of the "integrity of
United-States citizenship" and a
"cardinal function of United
States sovereignty." - -
It refers to Arab discriMina-
tion against American Jews in
general and Saudi Arabian dis-
crimination against American
servicemen of the Jewish faith
at the Dharhan air base, in par-
ticular. The resolution is note-
worthy at this time since a U.S.
agreement with Saudi Arabia
for the leasing of the Dharhan
base is now being renegotiated.
Sen. Lehman Scores Sec. Dulles
In a lengthy address on the
Senate floor, Sen. Lehman
criticized Secretary Dulles' re-
cent testimony before the Sen-
ate Foreign Relations Commit-
tee. He reported that Mr. Dulles
then called the discriminatory
practices of the Saudi Arabian
Government against American
Jewish servicemen an "eccen-
tricity" to - be graciously ac-
cepted.
"I do not consider this an
eccentricity of manner or
character," Sen. Lehman told
the Senate. "I consider this-a
violent attack upon the whole
concept of American citizen-
ship. I consider the basic atti-
tude of the U.S. Government
in this matter to be repre-
hensible and insupportable."
Sen. Lehman reviewed Arab
and Saudi Arabian discrimina-
tion against American Jews and

criticized the State Department
for tolerating the practices. He
said that by acquiescing to
Saudi Arabian prejudices for
Saudi Arabian oil and base
rights the U.S. loses the respect
of Saudi Arabia and every
other government in the world.
He expressed hope that in
any renewed agreement with
Saudi Arabia, a clause which
"protects the integrity of Amer-
ican citizenship and ends U.S.
acquiescence to the intolerable
Saudi Arabian attitude toward
American Jews," be included.
AJC Lauds Senator's Action
The American Jewish Com-
mittee in New York commended
Senators Douglas, Langer, and
Lehman for their initiative in
introducing a resolution in the
Senate protesting long-standing
discrimination by Arab govern-
ments against American citizens
of the Jewish faith.

Iranian Diplomat
Scores Policies of
Arab Ruling Class

A former Iranian - diplomat
warned that Arab rulers and
the Communists are deliberately
seeking to "prolong the Middle
East crisis."
Dr. Nasrollah S. Fatemi, for--
mer UN delegate from Iran and
member of the Iranian Parlia-
ment, told a Joint Defense Ap-
peal meeting in the Hotel Plaza,
New York, that the "ruling
classes of the Arab countries
are using the Israel question as
the only common rallying issue
which keeps their otherwise di-
vided countries united."
The Moslem statesman
warned that "even if we elimi-
nate the state of Israel the prob-
lem of the area will still be
with us. Caught in the crossfire
of local interests, national issues
and international pressures, the
ruling classes of the area throb
with a pulsing determination to
use Israel as a scapegoat and to
fan the flames of hatred be-
tween the Moslems and the
Jews."
Asserting that the "Arab rul-
ers are afraid of the moral and
material influence of the state
of Israel and do not want a
prosperous democratic state as
their neighbor, Dr. Fatemi de-
clared:
"The enemy of the area is not
Israel. The real enemy is pov-
erty and corruption, which right
now is playing into the hands
of the Communists and is push-
ing the Arab countries into the
bosom of the Russian bear. The
entrance of Russia and her sat-
ellites into the military affairs
of the Middle East is ominous.
Once the area is transformed
into a likely battleground in a
struggle between Arabs and
Israelis, all the Middle 'East
might fall into the hands of the
Russians."
Dr. Fatemi proposed a five-
point plan to end the UN's
"visionary and theoretical ap-
proach" to the Middle East
crisis. Highlights of his plan,
which would be conducted un-
der UN auspices, include a Se-
curity Council guarantee of the
present Israel borders, pending
a peace treaty; Israeli rehabili-
tation or compensation of refu-
gees who lost property in Israel;
development of the Jordan Riv-
er Authority as proposed by
Eric Johnston, President Eisen-
hower's representative in the
area; encouragement of "peace-
ful a n d friendly relations"
among the Middle East peoples;
and the writing of an Arab-
Israel peace treaty which would
establish Israel's boundaries at
"substantially the present ar-
mistice lines."

LONDON, (JTA) — Anna
Pauker, f or m e r Communist
Party leader and one-time For-
eign Minister of Communist
Romania, died a month ago in
Bucharest, at the age of 63, the
Manchester Guardian reported.
The dispatch, quoting Roman-
ian exile sources in Paris, said
that her cremation took place
in privacy with only her closest
relatives and friends present.
No official representative of the
Romanian Communist Party, of
which she was one of the foun-
ders atttended.
The daughter of a schochet,
Miss Pauker was born in North-
ern Moldavia. During the period
of the first World War, she
taught at a Jewish elementary
$24,000,000 In Israel Bonds
school.

Glared,' underscores dramatically
the fact that discrimination
against one group of Americans
necessarily invades the rights
of all Americans.
Irving M. Engel, AJC presi-
dent, said, "in calling for the
end of U.S. acquiescence to Arab
discrimination against Ameri-
can citizens, Senators Douglas,
Langer and Lehman have rend-
ered all Americans and the
cause of constitutional freedom
a significant service. They are
making clear to the ATherican
people that what is at stake here
is a moral issue, not a question
of religion or domestic politics.
"The question," Mr. Engel
continued, is: "does this nation
honor its Constitutional com-
mitments to all its citizens?
Does this nation honor its com-
mitment to the charter of the
United Nations, which calls for
`universal respect for, and ob-
servation of human rights and
fundamental freedoms for all
without distinctions as to race,
sex, language or religion'?"

Josh Sarasohn's Mother
Dies at the Age of 93

The death of Mrs. Sarah
Sarasohn, at the age of 93, on
June 26, revives interest in one
of the most distinguished Amer-
ican Jewish families.
Mrs. Sarasohn, who is sur-
vived by a son, Josh, well
known Detroit advertising man,
and a sister, Mrs. Ida Leven-
sohn, of Brookline, Mass., was
born in 1863. She came to this
country in 1880, lived in New
York until 1898, came to Mich-
igan in that year with her hus-
band and lived here for a short
time, returning to Detroit again
in 1910. She lived here con-
tinuously for the past 46 years.
In the last two years she was
a resident in the Jewish Home
for the Aged.
Her husband—Abraham H.—
who also was her second cousin
—died in 1934. He was associ-
ated here with his brother J. M.
Sarasohn in the Sarasohn and
Cohen store on Hastings Street.
Mrs. Sarasohn was a grand-
niece of the famous Kasriel
Sarasohn, the founder of the
Yiddish daily newspaper the
Tageblatt in New York.
She was an ardent Democrat,
although her husband, follow-
ing the tradition of Tageblatt
publishers, was a Republican. In
recent years she "campaigned"
among her friends for Demo-
cratic candidates.
Another interesting fact about
this matriarch was that she in-
terested herself in the stock
market. She was 4 feet 10 inches
tall, but she could be seen mak-
ing her way among very tall
men in stock brokers' offices to
gamble on purchases of five or
ten shares of stock in indus-
tries that caught her fancy.
Mrs. Sarasohn was the grand-
mother of the late Dr.. Steven B.
Sarasohn, who was assistant
professor of government at
Wayne University at the time
of his death a year ago.
Funeral services were held at
Kaufman Chapel last Sunday
afternoon.

Irvin Yarrows Dies

a Detroit resident for 48 years,

at the age of 66. Funeral serv-
ices were held Sunday at Kauf-
man Chapel.
Surviving him are his wife,
Agnes; a daughter, Mrs. Mildred
Lewis; three sisters and two
grandchildren.
For many years, Mr. Yar-
rows was active in the now-
defunct Jewish Children's home.
He was a member of the Zion-
ist Organization, Congregation
Adas Shalom, Bnai Brith and
a number of other fraternal or-
ganizations.

DR. SCHOENFELDT DIES
BAD GODESBERG, (JTA) —
Dr. Herbert Schoenfeldt, 61,
representative in Germany of
the Conference on Jewish Ma-
terial Claims Against Germany,
died here.

In Memoriam I

In cherished memory of my
beloved sister, Hattie (Cohen)
de Koven, who passed away
July 10, 1955 (20 days in Tam-
muz).
Precious memories of you are

year.
Sadly missed by your sister,
Adelina.
