JERUSALEM, (JTA) — A
marriage this week between an
Arab Christian girl living in
Israel and a Christian Arab who
is a citizen of Jordan proved
that love could conquer all ob-
stacles.
The latter included such for-
midable hurdles as Arab-Israel
enmity, distance and diplomatic
red-tape.
Rena Nakaleah Kara, 24, an
Israeli citizen of the Greek Or-
thodox faith, who lives in Jaf-
fa, wanted to wed her cousin,
Michel Kara, 28.
However, he lived in Amman,
Jordan, and the problems in-
volved in getting them wed for
a while seemed insurmount-
able.
When approval finally did
come, Rena's family suddenly
found itself left out of the pic-
ture because it did not have
permission to watch the cere-
mony. So Rafael Levy, Israeli
district officer, telephoned Na-
jati Hashibi, his Jordanian coun-
terpart in Old Jerusalem.
A few hours later, Rena, her
family and a priest were al-
lowed to pass through the Man-
delbaum Gate. Between the
two warring Jerusalems, in the
deserted, rubble - strewn no-
man's land, Rena was married
to Michel.

Zionist Actions Co mmittee Urges
Continued Middle Class Migration
(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)
JERUSALEM — A resolution
welcoming the establishment
by the Jewish Agency of a
fund to promote the absorption
of middle class immigrants in
Israel was adopted here Tues-
day at the closing session of
the Zionist Actions Committee.
The resolution lauded the ac-
tivities of the Agency's econ-
omic department in the fields
of encouraging middle class
immigration, mobilization of
capital, encouragement of in-
vestments in Israel and supply-
ing economic information and
guidance.
Recommending the expansion
of these activities both in Israel
and abroad, the ZAC requested
the Jewish Agency executive
to continue its negotiations
with the Israel government for
the purpose of ensuring govern-
ment participation in produc-
tive integration of middle class
settlers.
The Actions Committee de- -
manded in its resolution that
the activities on behalf of
middle class immigration be
intensified. It welcomed the
efforts made for the absorp-
tion of specialists and profes-
sionals and urged increased
immigration of this type of
immigrants.
The resolution expressed the
wish that the policy of distri-
bution of the newcomers on
the land and the efforts of
housing new immigrants be
coordinated through advanced
planning. It called upon the
Israel government and Israeli
industrialists to help _in the
development of industrialization
areas with a view to consoli-
date and expand the absorption
of newcomers, and it welcomed
efforts to direct immigrants to
agricultural settlements.
Another resolution requested
the maintaining of the present
rate of immigration to Israel
and urged that appropriate
conditions be created to effect
considerable immigration from
countries in Western Europe,
the United" States, South
America and South Africa. It
expressed gratification with
expansion of youth immigra-
tion and called for increased
efforts for the absorption of
the youth in workers settle-
ments and youth villages.
The ZAC empowered its
permanent budget and finance
committee to approve the
budgets of the Jewish
Agency, Jewish National Fund
and Keren Hayesod for the
remainder of 195'7 as well as
for the fiscal year 1958-59.
It ordered the Zionist fed-
erations and individual Zion-
ist groups to cooperate fully
with the Jewish National
Fund and--reiterated the right
of the JNF to use traditional
methods of fund raising.
Other Zionist groups were
urged not to use these
methods themselves.
The ZAC concluded its two-
week session Tuesday night
with a call to the United Na-
tions and to major world
powers to promote direct peace
negotiations between Israel and
the Arab states. It appealed to
the Soviet government to per-
mit Jews to emigrate from the
Soviet Union to Israel.
The supreme Zionist body
between World Zionist Con-
gresses strongly condemned the
Arab boycott against Israel as
a blow to the cause of con-
structive cooperation and world
peace. It expressed admiration
for the splendid achievements
of the Israeli defense forces
and for the courage of the
people of Israel in view of the
immediate dangers which
threatened the State prior to
the Sinai campaign.
In its 'declaration, the ZAC
emphasized that "continuing
and mutually competitiye sup-
ply of arms to the Arab states
by major powers is a factor
menacing the peace, in the
Middle East." The ZAC warned
that "this policy may transform
the already tense situation into
an explosion and a large scale
conflagration."
In the concluding action of
its current session, ZAC set
up a series of regulations de-
signed to implement the deci-
sion of the 24th World Zionist
Congress to establish territo-
rial federations as the basic
structure of the movement.
Where a Zionist federation or
other comprehensive paramount
Zionist body exists now, it shall
serve as the base from which to
extend the territorial structure.
Existing Zionist executive
boards should be enlarged to
make room for representatives
of new groups as they affiliate,
the regulations state. Represen-
tation in the federation shall be
baSed on the proportion of each
group's membership to the
whole and each shall determine
the form of election for itself.
The question of "admission of
non-Zionists to the federation
shall be determined by each na-
tional structure, the regulations
provide. The various Zionist
parties within the federation
shall remain independent in its
own activities, and party affili-
ation with a territorial federa-
tion shall not affect the party's
connection with its world move-
ment.
The Zionist Actions Commit-
tee associated itself with the
action of the Parliament of Is-
rael and the custom of many
Jewish communities abroad in
the observance of National Re-
membrance Day, in memory of
the six million Jews martyred
by the Nazis. The committee
urged JeWs throughout the
world to mark the 27th day of
the Hebrew month of Nissan
"in an appropriate manner."
The committee rejected a
Herut move to debate the
questions of relations between
West Germany and Israel,
after it was stressed that this
is sphere of decision for the
Parliament and government
of the Jewish State, not the
Zionist movement.
Urge Congress Cancel
Aliens' Departure Bonds
Major Jewish organizations
last week urged the Judiciary
Committee of the United States
House of Representatives to
approve a pending bill (H. R.
8439) which would cancel de-
parture bonds posted by aliens
who have since qualified as
permanent residents.
The American Jewish Con-
gress, Jewish Labor Committee,
Jewish War Veterans of the
U.S.A., Union of American He-
brew Congregations, Union of
Orthodox Jewish Congregations
of America, and United Syna-
gogue of America joined in a
w
statement to this effect, which
was transmitted to the House
Judiciary Committee by the Na-
tional Community Relations
Advisory Council.
Some 280 persons, who origi-
nally came to the United States
as rabbis, students and visitors,-
would be affected by the leg-
islation. Each of these had been
granted asylum from religious
persecution. All were required,
in U.S. immigration law, to
post bonds to guarantee their
departure upon expiration of
their visitors visas.
S. Levenberg, chairman of the
Actions Committee political sub-
committee, expressed surprise
at the Moroccan government's
failing to heed its promise to
allow its Jewish citizens to emi-
grate freely to Israel.
A letter calling on all settle-
ments. established on Jewish
National Fund land to refrain
from breeding swine was read
and unanimously approved by
the entire membership of the
Actions Committee.
In the final minutes of the
session, Dr. Nahum Goldmann,
president of the World Zionist
Organization, paid tribute to
veteran Zionists Berl Locker
and Baruch Zuckerman on the
occasion of their 70th birthdays.

Soviets Continue
Pressure on Israel
LONDON (JTA)—Radio Mos-•
cow has again charged Israel
with "aggression" against Syria
and broadcast an implied threat
that the USSR would come to
Syria's aid.
In an Arabic language broad-
cast, the Soviet radio said that
there were powers "capable of
making them (Israeli leaders)
abandon the policy of intimida-
tion." It also charged that U.S.
"imperialists" had instigated
Israeli action.
Referring to the recent Israel
Syrian border clash which cost
one Israeli life and the wound-
ing of 10 others, the announcer
said: "The provocative acts of
aggression carried out a few
days ago by Israeli forces on
the Syrian frontier came as
irrefutable proof of the shame-
ful fact, that Israeli aggressive
quarters have not learned a
proper lesson from the defeat
of the ignominious aggression
which Israel, together with the
British and French imperial-
ists, launched against Egypt."
