JERUSALEM, (JTA)—Israeli I
circles complain that neither the
United Nations nor the Great
Powers have shown sufficient
energy or effectiveness in halt-
ing Egyptian brutality and per-
secution of the Jews. Each new
party of Egyptian Jews which
arrives outside Egypt provides
new evidence that both the
Egyptian government and highly
placed Egyptian officers • are
robbing evacuating Egyptian
Jews.
One way in -which the
Egyptians rob the Jews is by
inducing them to buy Thomas
Cook travelers checks at ex-

Impose Heavy Sentence
for Anti-Semitic Slur

FRANKFURT, Germany
(JTA)—An elderly German who
shouted a n t i-Semitic epithets
after a brawl -with a Jew has
been sentenced to five months'
imprisonment.
The Superior Court here has
confirmed the sentence on Franz
Kroner, one of the heaviest ever
imposed in Germany in such a
case, on the grounds that the
remarks the defendant shouted
"are so appalling and reveal so
base a disposition that the
length of the sentence should
stand."
The Association of Jewish
communities of Hesse had ap-
peared as a co-plaintiff in the
case.

orbitant prices. When the
refugees arrive outside, how-
ever, they find that the
checks are worthless because
the Nasser regime has taken
over Cook offices in Egypt.
Other expellees report that
Egyptian officers obtain lists of
Jews to be expelled and then
force them to sell all or most
of their property for next to
nothing, or face beatings and
jail.
United Nations Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold
and Maj. Gen. E. L. M. Burns,
commander-in-chief of the UN
Emergency Force in Egypt,
have both told Israeli author-
ities that there is no way of
preventing the entry of Egyp-
tian forces into the Sinai Pen-
insula in the wake of the
UNEF units which are taking
over from the evacuating Is-
raeli troops. This was learned
in authoritative circles here.

`Hostile' Composers' Music
Not to Be Banned in Israel

JERUSALEM (JTA) — The
government does not intend to
ban the music of "hostile" com-
posers but regards performance,
of their work here as impolitic.
Zalman Aranne, the Minister
of Education, told the Knesset.
Replying to an interpellation
dealing with a recent concert
by the Israel Phiharmonic Or-
chestra from which a work by
Richard Strauss, a pro-Nazi,
was dropped. Aranne asid the
ministry had advised against
inclusion of the Strauss piece
but had not banned it. Asked
further whether such perform-
ances would not hurt and insult
the families of victims of
Nazism, Aranne said that while

there is unanimity of feeling
over composers who are anti-
Semitic or pro-Nazi, there is no
sense to a ban on the notes
which., once Created, have an
existence of their own.

Council in Clinton was jailed
this week for 30 days by an irate
judge for distributing anti-
Semitic literature in a Federal
courtroom. .
The incident occurred when

16 segregationists from Clinton
were arraigned before Federal
Judge Robert L. Taylor on cri-
minal contempt charges for in-
terfering with orderly integra-
tion at Clinton High School.
As the defendants were being
arraigned, Joseph Diehl, 43, be-

ing pictures of many prominent
Jews and the allegation that
"Asiatic-Marxist Jews Control
Gentile World." Diehl, a farmer
with an eight-grade education,
has long mixed anti-Semitic
propaganda with his anti-segre-
gationist activities.
(The New York Times report-
ed this week that "a noticeable
theme of the White Citizens
Council followers in Clinton
throughout the turmoil has been
anti-Semitic.")

Wrestling Coach

By HAROLD V. RIBALOW
Yeshiva University, winch in
its quiet way does all right in
sports, has announced that Mor-
ton Schlein has been named
wrestling coach at the Univer-
sity. The drama in this tale is
that Schlein, 23, enjoys only
partial vision in one eye. Never-
theless, he was a collegiate
wrestling champion at Ithaca
College and was undefeated in
two years of matches. He at-
tended the New York Institute
for the Blind for his elementary
and high school education be-
fore studying at CCNY and Ith-
aca College. He also has been
working as director of physical
education at the Institute in the
Bronx, where his coaching abi-
lities first won him attention.
Yeshiva will engage in seven
intercollegiate matches this
year, as against three last year.
Here, too, we have a story of
hope, and we shall watch with
interest the accomplishments of
the Yeshiva boys under the
tutelage of Schlein.
