U. S. Senate Includes Kashrut
Procedures in Slaughtering Bill

Rival Druze Sheikhs Feud on Fund-Raising

(Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News)

WASHINGTON—A bill advancing humane methods of
slaughtering cattle, specifically designating kosher ritual
procedure as one such method, Monday was passed by the
Senate.

Senator Hubert H. Humphrey had sought and incor-
porated advice from orthodox Jewish sources into the
measure.
The bill provides for no compulsory changes in slaugh-
tering practices but calls for the establishment of an ad-
visory committee. At Sen. Humphrey's request, the ad-
visory committee must include authority on kosher meth-
ods, probably rabbis. The advisory committee would report
back to the Senate in two years on its findings. Sen. Hum-
phrey is seeking wider application of the traditional Jewish
concept of merciful slaughtering.

Soviet Encyclopedia Alters Israel's
History with Political Approach

NEW YORK, (JTA ) —Isr a el
is sharply attacked in "The
Great Soviet Encyclopedia"
which is published by decree
of the Soviet Council of Milli-is-
ters, it was established by for-
mer Sen. William Benton, pub-
lisher of the Encyclopedia Bri-
tannica, who received 39 of the
55 planned volumes of the So-
viet reference work.
In transplanting major arti-
cles from the Great Soviet En-
cyclopedia for comparison with
t h e Encyclopedia Britannica,
Sen. Benton's office found quite
a difference between its own
article on Israel and the article
on the same subject in the So-
viet volume.

British Press Scores
Editor for Stirring Up
_ False Race Problem

LONDON, (JTA)—The Brit-
ish Press Council, a voluntary
organization of representatives
of publishers and newspaper-
men's unions, condemned an
editor's refusal to correct a
report that a fire in the Brixton
Synagogue in London was a
sign of a new flare-up of race
hatred.
The request for a retraction
and correction had been Made
by Rabbi A. Steinberg, Spiritual
leader of Brixton Synagogue.
The Press Council's action
followed a formal complaint by
the Board of Deputies of British
Jews against the editor of the
"South London Advertiser," a
suburban weekly. The Council
deplored the "dangerously
exaggeraled tone of the article"
and condemned the editor for
refusing to print the letter by
Rabbi Steinberg asking him to
correct these "serious misstate-
ments."
The offending article had fea-
tured the fire as evidence of
a new anti-Semitic campaign
in the neighborhood and had
declared that Jewish and non-
Jewish residents of the area .
were praying that the fire was
not a "signal for race war."
It further stated that the
synagogue had been desecrated
a few weeks earlier when a
pig's head had been nailed to
the door on a Sabbath. Rabbi
Steinberg denied that there was
any truth to the incident or
that Jews were praying that the
fire was not a signal for the
outbreak of racial violence.

While the Encyclopedia Bri-
tannica presents a factual his-
tory of the birth of Israel, the
Soviet encyclopedia claims that
Britain and the United States
provoked the 1948 war between
Israel and the Arab states and
says that Israel is "a centralized
bourgeois republic which is eco-
nomically and politically de-
pendent on American imperial-
ism."
After the end of the 1948 war,
the article in the Soviet ency-
clopedia continues, "the Amer-
ican imperialists became even
More active in Israel. They took
over the positions held by Eng-
land and transformed Israel
into a colony and into a stra-
tegic base in the Middle East,
to be used as a jumping off
point for a war of aggression.
"The ruling circles of Israel
conduct a reactionary policy;
the aim of this policy is to si-
lence the democratic forces and
to oppress the Jewish working
masses and the Arab minority,
which is deprived of any rights.
These ruling circles maintain
and strengthen nationalistic and
chauvinistic attitudes among
the backward strata of the
population."

Israel Development Bonds
help speed Israel's industrial
development. Israel Bond funds
helped finance the construction
of 104 new enterprises and the
epxansion of 32 older ones.
With the aid of Israel Bond dol-
lars, there are more than 22,000
industrial enterprises and
workshops in operation
throughout Israel. Shown above
at one of these enterprises—
the Yuval Gad Pipe Company
Aseklon, the Middle East's
largest pre-stressed concrete
pipe manufacturing firm — are
workmen lowering a huge pipe
aboard a rack at the finishing
area plant. Yuval Gad, which
receives Israel Bond proceeds,
produces pipes primarily for
vital irrigation and deep-water
well projects throughout the
arid regions of the country.

TIBERIAS, (JTA)—A quarrel
about the alms collected at the
Druze shrine of Nebi Shu'eib
near here has' erupted into a
full-scale feud between two
rival Druze clans.
The m•nopoloy on fund col-
lecting by Sheikh Amin Tarrif
has now been challenged by
Sheikh Jaber Mu'adi, a mem-
ber of the Knesset. Sheikl
Mu'adi is understood to have set
up a guard drawn from his
own clan around the shrine,
which is competing with the
other Druze leader's clan in
fund-raising.
The spat actually stems back
to a quarrel three years ago
when some Druze demanded an
accounting of alms distribution
on the grounds that they were
the property of all Druze in
Israel.
Sheikh Amin refused to give
in; claiming that the fund-
raising was not an all-Druze
affair but an exclusive posses-
sion of his clan.
Both Shiekhs have now refer-
