Germans Back Israel
on Suez Canal Issue

BONN, (JTA) — The Social
Democratic Party of West Ger-
many has called on the Bonn
government to press for free
passage through the Suez Canal
for vessels of all nations, partic-
ularly those of Israel, at the
London Conference. The state-
ment was made by Fritz Heine,
party press chief in a policy
statement published in the
party's press service. •
A similar view was expressed
in the West Berlin daily "Tele-
graf," which took issue with the
British government's view that
the Israel-Arab problem and the
Suez situation are separate. "If
the right of free passage is to

be worth anything," ,Telegraf
said, "it can only be indivisible,

and whether the Egyptian gov-
ernment eliminates the injustice
it hithArto practiced against Is-
rael will prove to be an abso-
lute touchstone for the assur-
ances it is now proffering with
regard to free passage."
The influential Hamburg
newspaper "Die Welt" takes the
Opposite point of view. It 'calls
on Germany to take a hands-

off attitude, warning that other-
wise Egypt might recognize East
Germany.
