Mendelssohn Home to • Be Destroyed BERLIN (JTA)—The East German municipal authorities in Dessau are preparing to tear down the house, slightly damaged in an air raid dur- ing the last war, in whose annex philosopher Moses Mendelssohn was born in 1729. The "father of Jewish emancipation" and the first Jew to translate the Bible into German, Mendelssohn was commonly known as "Moses Dessau" when he came to Berlin as a young man. A monument to Mendels- sohn used to stand outside the Dessau railroad station, but the Nazis carted it away to the local Jewish cemetery after their advent to power and demolished it during the November pogroms of 1938. At the house on whose grounds Mendelssohn w a s born there is at present a memorial plaque. work toward assuring Israel freedom of passage through the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Akaba, as well as guaranteeing Israel's security from renewed Egyptian attacks from the Gaza Strip were made in two state- ments issued by two separate groups of prominent American .educators, clergymen and 'pub- licists. Both statements demand- ed the use of the United Nations Emergency Force as a buffer be- tween Israel and Egypt. Approximately 550 w e 11 - known Americans signed one of the statements under the lead- ership of the American Chris- tian Palestine Committee. The other request was signed by 13 distinguished American leaders headed by Elmer Davis, well- known American writer. The statement signed by the 'larger group was in the form of a letter to President Dwight D. Eisenhower. It offered a six- point program, as follows: 1. A buffer zone policed by the UNEF between Israel and Egypt until safeguards against "renewed violence have been established." 2. The United Nations to administer the Gaza Strip un- til final disposition of this territory has been made. 3. The United States is to Wolok Installed by Hebrew Benevolent velopment programs for the entire Middle East, aiding both Jewish and Arab refugees. 4. Speedy settlement of the Suez Canal issue "in the in- terests of the economies of all nations." 5. U. S. support of direct peace negotiations between the Arab states and Israel. 6. The United Nations Emergency Force now in the area is to stay on until "each of the objectives outlined above has been attained." The second statement was also explicit on the entire Mid- dle East problem as it affects Israel's relations with the Arab states. It demanded that UNEF remain in the Suez Canal and Gulf of Akaba areas protecting freedom of shipping for all na- tions including Israel. On Gaza, it stated: "We can permit Is- rael's stay in the Gaza Strip, which is not and never has been Egyptian, until arrange- ments are completed to ensure either a buffer zone between Israel and Egypt or some means by which Israel will be pro- tected• from attack and Egypt from retaliation." * * * Judaism Council Challenges Right of Jewish Leaders NEW YORK (JTA)—The au- thority and right of leaders of various organizations of Ameri- can Jews to speak for their At formal ceremonies which took place at a dinner of the Hebrew Benevolent Society, Nathan Wolok was installed as president of the organization.
