to keep me behind closed doors
in order to carry on a trial,"
and granted a police request
for a 15-day detention.
A report by two physicians
declared that Douek is legally
sane and can stand trial on the
attempted murder charge.
The report contradicts a deci-
sion of a year ago by a commis-
sion of psychiatrists which ruled
that Douek was not fit to face
trial for attempting to set fire
to Beilinson Hospital in Tel
Aviv.
The Cabinet has named a
Ministerial committee to plan
security arrangements to pre-
vent further attacks on the
Knesset such as the bombing by
Douek. Speaker of the Knesset
Joseph Sprinzak has named a
Parliamentary commission of in-
quiry, headed by Israel Bar Ye-
hudah, Minister for Interior,
and including representatives of
various parties to investigate
the bombing.
FroM Hadassah Hospital, Pre-
mier Ben-Gurion wrote to the
parents of Douek, absolving
them of any blame for their
son's act. The letter was gen-
erally regarded as a precaution
against any misguided acts of
revenge which might be di-

"You are living in the state
of Israel which is governed by
right and justice," the Premier
wrote the Douek family. "I hope
no harm of any kind will befall
you and your children. I -hope
you will succeed in bringing up
your other children to good
'deeds and a love of Israel."
Shapira, the Minister of Reli-
gious Affairs, was permitted
visitors at the hospital for the
first time, early this week. One
of them was Sephardic Chief
Rabbi Itzhak Nissim. Shapira
told the Chief Rabbi he had
been deeply moved by the pray-
ers recited for him in syna-
gogues in Israel and the United
States.

Mrs. Golda Meir, Israel's For-
eign Minister, was limping
slightly as she was released
from the hospital after three
days of treatment for leg
wounds.
Moshe Carmel, Minister of
Transport, who suffered a brok-
en arm may- be able to leave
the hospital by the end of this
week, hospital authorities said.
The newspapers of Israel en-
tered into a rare conspiracy of
silence to keep Premier Ben-
Gurion from learning the news
of the death of Col. Argov. Spe-

printed for distribution in Ha-

reference was made to the
story.

The $70,000,000 figure repre-

1 the-spot survey reveals a des-
perate need for "greater effort"
by American Jewry, if Israel
is to -be able to absorb an in-
creasing influx - of homeless
refugees, and if new oppoi-
tunities for overseas relief in
Eastern Europe and other
areas are to be met.
Morris W. Bernstein, UJA
president, reported that the
American Jewish communal
leaders saw "evidence of tre-
mendous progress, and also
tremendous need. Shortages of
funds could seriously hamper
absorption of immigr,ants in
the state of Israel and recently
organized aid operations in
Poland for Jews repatriated
from Russia," he said. -
Members of the study mis-
sion- will relate their findings
to their home communities
scattered across the United
States, and submit an exten-
sive report at the 1958 goal- 1
setting national conference of
the United Jewish Appeal, Dec.

picking him up and rushing him
to the hospital, he waited sev-
eral hours for a report on the
man's condition.
When told it was serious, he
rushed home, drew up a will
leaving his possessions to the
injured man, or to his family
if he died of injuries, wrote a
farewell note to Ben-Gurion and
then shot himself in the head.
Despite his relapse, the Pre-

who was on a one-day visit.
With him was William Baxter,
