Catch Fedayeen at Nazareth
Landmine Kills 3 Israelis

.


Reports from Poland, where Wladyslaw Gomulka gained control of the Corn-
munist Party's central committee by winning the First Secretaryship, are that the
Jewish population feels secure.

TEL AVIV —A gang of Arab Fedaydeen (suicide

squad members), operating from Lebanese territory but
under Egyptian directives, was captured near Nazareth,
an Israel military spokesman announced here Tuesday.
Among the arrested Arabs were two Lebanese and
a number of residents of Arab villages in Upper Galilee.-
Three Israeli soldiers were killed and 21 wounded
. in one of the most serious landmine incidents to occur
along the Egyptian border in months. Of the 21 wounded,
six are in critical condition. It was the first incident on
the Egyptian border since August.
Two military vehicles were patroling the area north
of the Ketziot settlement in the Nitzana area when the
first vehicle struck a landmine. The second truck rushed
up to the scene and found two dead and many wounded.
Upon its return to base the second vehicle - hit a mine
and further casualties were inflicted.
A Foreign Ministry spokesman charged that three
Egyptian infiltrators, wearing rubber
soled boots, had
penetrated Israel territory for two miles
to plant the
landmines.

Israel Signs Contract for Jets

OTTAWA, (JTA)—The Israeli governinent signed
a contract with Canadiar of Montreal calling for the de-
livery of 24 Canadian-manufactured Sabrej ets by April,
the planes to be produced at the rate of four a month.
The total price of the planes, including spare parts, will
come to about $7,200,000.



Strong opposition to anti-Semitism has been assured. Prior to the present revolt against
the influence of Soviet Russia's leaders upon Poland, Polish Communists
evidenced opposition to the anti-Semitic policies of the Stalinists. Poland,
for many decades one of the most anti-Semitic countries in Europe, on
occasion has been philo-Semitic in recent years, especially in the last
year, as an act of protest against Soviet Russia's policies.
A Jewish Telegraphic Agency cable from London reveals that
Nikita S. Khrushchev, leader of the. COmmunist Party in the Soviet
Union, injected an anti-Semitic note into his angry, talks here with
Wladyslaw Gomulka, the former Polish leader who was purged and now
has been restored to favor in the Polish Communist ranks and who is
challenging Moscow's domination over Poland.
The correspondent of the British Broadcasting Corporation reported
from Warsaw that when Khrushchev arrived there together with other
top Soviet leaders, he told Gomulka: "Russian blood has been spilled for
the liberation of Poland and now you want to turn the country over to
Americans and to the Zionists." The Soviet leaders, including Khruschev,
flew back to Moscow after stormy conferences with members of the
Polish Politburo which is supporting Gomulka's stand.
The Warsaw Jewish newspaper Folkshtimme reports that the

"an energetic ideological fight against

racial or national origin." The punishment
of their
resolution was introduced by
representatives cif the Wroclaw
regional committee of the United Workers Party, the Communist Party of Poland.
The military delegation that accompanied Khrushchev to Warsaw included the only Jewish
member of the Soviet Politburo, Lazar M. Ka ganovich.
A report from London stated that Radio Moscow continued to broadcast anti-Israel propa-
ganda into the. Arab countries. Alleging that the Western "imperialists" have instigated Israel's
retaliatory raids against Jordan, the radio said: "It is obvious to everyone that . . . behind Israel
stand the Western quarters which provide the extreme elements in Israel with dollars and arms
and encourage them to undertake various .
acts of provocation against the peace-loving Arab
people."

It is believed that Jordan now will seek assurances from Egypt and tither Arab states that
they will provide the $35,000,000 which hitherto came as a military subsidy from Britain, so
that Jordan may break her alliance with Britain.
A direct JTA teletype wire to The Jewish News on Tuesday quoted Radii3 Moscow as
charging that "recent violations of the frontier by Israeli troops were part of a design
inter-
fere in Jordan's domestic affairs, and artificially complicate the situation in the Middle to East."
The Broadcast alleged that "it is obvious that after their unsuccessful attempts to solve the
Suez Question by force the colonial circles of certain Western powers are doing their best to
drive a wedge between the Arab states and create another pretext • for interference in their
domestic affairs." It was charged that the British "want Iraqi forces to
go into Jordan not to

the Security Council at Friday's meeting: "I can give assurance
that if Jordan is prepared to put an end to the attacks on Israel,
there will be peace on the frontier." He charged that Jordan has
"persistently." violated not
only the armistice agreement but also
the cease-fire pledge its government gave to Secretary General
Dag Hammarskjold last April. Israel has suffered 37 dead and the
wounding of scores of others at the Jordanian border since the
April cease-fire pledge, Mr. Kidron said. Mr. Kidron asked
