stated, "It is appropriate in hon-
oring Dr. Hershman that we
do it in the way it will mean
most to him, by a heartwarm-
ing response to the State of
Israel."
Judge Levin, U.S. district
judge for eastern Michigan, has
served on the congregation's
board during his many years of
membership. He came to know
that rabbi in a personal manner
as next door neighbor to the
Hershman family.
Besides Judge Levin, Dr. Jo-
seph Burg, Israeli minister of
Communications, will honor
Rabbi Hershman on behalf of
the Israel government and the
Israel Bond campaign.
Dr. Hershman, Rabbi Emeri-
tus now living in New York
with his daughters, assumed the
Shaarey Zedek rabbinical post
in 1907, when the congrega-
tion was located on Winder
St. Then 27, he was installed
by Dr. Solomon Schechter, pres-
ident of the Jewish Theological
Seminary and one of the great-
est Jewish scholars of modern
times, who came here from
New York.
Dr. Hershman, a leading
spokesman for Zionism, was re-
sponsible for early Zionist ac-
tivity in Detroit. He received
his doctorate from the Jewish
Theological Seminary when he
published the book "Rabbi Issac
Perfet and His Times," in 1943.
Though he became Rabbi Em-
eritus three years later, he has
continued his scholarly re-
search and has achieved world-
wide renown as a man of
learning.
Those interested in attend-
ing the dinner should call the

fice, according to Dr. Leonard
Sidlow, chairman of the event.

LONDON—Israel's Sinai op-
eration was described on a BBC
television program as "the
shortest fighting campaign in
history, brilliantly conceived
and brilliantly executed."
This summary was made by
commentator Richard Dimbleby
in first anniversary review of
the effects of the Sinai opera-
tion, for which Peter Flynn,
BBC correspondent in Israel,
was brought to London.
Flynn said that as a result
of the Sinai campaign the
Egyptian army was smashed,
15,000,000 pounds of Egyptian
war equipment was captured,
the Gulf of Aqaba was opened
to make possible present week-
ly arrivals of oil cargoes at the
port of Eilat, infiltration attacks
have almost ceased and a "great

He added that Israelis had
not gained as much as they had
hoped, specifying that there
was no United Nations admin-
istration in the Gaza Strip nor
had Israel received concrete
guarantees of free passage
through the Suez Canal and the
Gulf of Aqaba. He added that
Israel had learned "a hard les-
son at the hands of the UN and
the United States."

Police had orders to use force
in dispersing the demonstra-
tion.
The clash was the second
Communist-inspired effort to
gain political capital from the
Kfar Kassem slayings. The first
was an attempt by Tewfik
Toubi, also a Communist dep-
uty, to break into the Arab vil-
lage despite a police cordon.
He claimed after he was forci-
bly prevented from entering
that he was assaulted by police.
The Attorney General repeat-
edly was considering revocation
of Toubi's parliamentary im-
munity to permit suit of the
deputy on charges of attacking
police on duty.

UNITED NATIONS, (JTA)___
Israel has received significant
aid in the development of its
economy in the last seven years
from 150 internationally known
experts sent to the country by
the United Nations Expanded
Program of Technical Assist-
-. ance.
During the same period, the
UN's Technical Assistance pro-
gram sent 398 Israelis to for-
eign countries on fellowships
providing training in their spe-
cial fields. Altogether, the Tech-
nical Assistance set-up has
spent a total of nearly $2,800,-
000 on its work in Israel.
These facts, among others—
showing not only what UN
Technical Assistance did for
Israel, but also how Israel aided
the world organization's tech-
nical assistance programs in
other countrie s—were sum-
marized here by the UN on the
