Tisha b'Ab Plea
Made by the JNF
(Copyright, 1956, JTA, Inc.)
The Jewish National Fund
has issued a call to the rabbis
and leaders of synagogues in
Detroit and outstate to conduct
an intensive appeal for the
Jewish National: Fund in every
synagogue on Tish b'Ab which
this year will be observed on
Monday evening, July 16, and
Tuesday, July .17.
A formal request, signed by
Rabbi J. M: Chinitz, Morris
Dorn, Abraham Nusbaum, Max
Stollman, Daniel Temchin and
Zvi Tomkiewicz, co-chairmen of
the synagogue committee of the
Jewish National- Fund, asks
that, "the message of the State
of Israel, its people, its strug-
gles and its triumphs should
again be brought to worship-
ers who are gathered in the
synagogues on Tisha b'Ab.
"Now, more than ever before,
we must rededicate ourselves to
the strengthening and securing
of the future of Medinat Israel."
Polish Emigrants Free
to Apply for Visas
TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Polish
Jews who want to leave for Is-
rael are having no difficulty in
obtaining the necessary docu-
ments, a party of Polish immi-
grants who arrived here said.
They reported that from now
on the number of Polish Jews
arriving in Impel would in-
crease steadily.
They said that Polish Jews
were visiting the Israel legation
freely and without fear, unlike
some years back when P4ish
nationals were arrested after
leaving the legation. The party
of immigrants, who came on the
S.S. Jerusalem, included Jews
from Hungary, USSR, Czecho-
slovakia and Romania.
Isa Kremer Dies
NEW YORK, (JTA) — Isa
Kremer, famous concert singer,
died at Cordo-
ba, Argentina
Saturday night.
She was 69. A
native of B elt-
zi, Bessarabia,
she made a re-
putation as a
singer of Jew-
ish and other,
folk songs in
Europe and ap-,
peared in Car-
negie Hall and
the old Man-
hattan Op e r
house in New
York, as well Isa Kremer
as in many cities throughout
the United States:: She made a
.number • of appearances in De-
troit.
JERUSALEM —A flurry of
rumors about the massing of
Israeli troops on Jordan's bor-
ders emanating from Arab
sources—but confirmed by no
neutral observer—were seen as
a cover for the aggressive in-
tentions o _ f the Arabs them-
selves. -
The exact point on which
Arab intentions hinged remained
obscure, but one thing appeared
certain—there had been a very
definite build-up of troop con-
centrations.
(Air . 1-aid drills in Jerusalem,
on Tuesday, emphasized the
tenseness of the existing situa-
tion and alerted the population
to dangers created by the latest
Jordanian attacks on Israel).
The troops, however, were
Iraqui units, Syrian units, Jor-
Iry Field to Conduct
Wayne Concert Band
Irving Feldman, who is study-
ing for a doctorate in music at
Wayne State University, will
conduct the university's band
in a concert at
8 p. m., Wed-
nesday at the
State Fair
Grounds.
Known p r o-
fessionally a s

Wayne g r a d-
u a t e student
has appeared
with his o w n

community affairs, 'and pres-
ently has an engagement at
Todd's Supper Club.
' A native Detroiter, Field is
the son of Mrs. Arthur Feld-
man, of 18661 Whitcomb, and
the late Mr. Feldman.
At Wednesday's concert, he
will conduct the Wayne band in
three numbers, "Sanctuary of

Pathetique S y mph o my" and
"Spanish March Fiesta." The
public is invited to attend the
concert.
dan's Arab Legion, probably
Egyptian forces, and even the
Lebanese gendarmie—everyone
in fact, except the Israelis
against whom the original accu-,
sations had been made.
The first flurry of excitement
came in Beirut when a session
of the Lebanese Parliament was
suspended amid reports that
Israel had massed troops on the
Jordan frontier and was about
to attack Jordan.
Telephone communications
were interrupted between Beirut
and the Jordanian-held part of
Jerusalem. An emergency war
council was called in Beirut.
The Egyptian and Saudi
Arabian Ambassadors were sum-
moned to a meeting with the
Jordanian Charge d'Affaires and
the acting Lebanese Premier.
However, American news • ser-
vices succeeded in contacting
Arab editors in Jordan and
established that there was no
grounds for the rumors.
The Arab charges that Israel
was massing troops in the
Jerusalem area to attack Jor-
dan 'were ridiculed as "non-
sense" by a spokesman for the
Israel government. They also
were denied by United Nations
truce headquarters here.
A UN spokesman said that
headquarters had received no
reports of Israel troop move-
ments from its observers in the
field. He further denied that
truce chief Maj. Gen. E. L. M.
Burns was returning from Cairo
to deal with any "situation."
In fact, he pointed out, Gen.
Burns has delayed his return
from Egypt where • he went to
discuss resumption of meetings
of the Israel-Egytian Mixed
Armistice Commission and other
security matters.
Gen. Burns is "unperturbed"
by the situation which "has not
changed since his meeting with
Premier Ben-Gurion last week,"
the spokesman noted.
An Israeli Foreign Ministry
spokesman said the real cause
of Arab jumpiness was the
presence of Iraq army forces on
Jordan's northern frontier.
Egypt, he declared, simply
was trying to attract attention
to the presence of these forces,
which Israeli sources said were
put there to forestall any pos-
sible Egyptian coup in the
forthcoming Jordan election.
