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 Iry Field, -the Wayne g r a d- u a t e student has appeared with his o w n Field combo at many 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 the Heait," "Excerpts from the 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. t4X:7,7:Z4.VaiWK:K€Kffg*.:i.01:+N]:›28KY.K 4i TYPEWRITERS and a • ADDING MACHINES 4 All Name Brands—New & Used 2$ F. ....., K . • LOWEST PRICES IN * AMERICA v., Generous allowances on trade-ins $ DETROIT li TYPEWRITER MART 41.7131 LIVERNOIS UN. 1-8040 „.4 BRUSSELS, (JTA)—The Bel- gium government has handed a note to the Bonn government GREETINGS & GIFTS demanding that West Germany pay compensation to non-Ger- ore brought to you from man nationals who were in- Friendly Neighbors terned in Nazi concentration a Civic & Social Welfare camps.
