Moshe Sharett Attacks Soviet Premier for His Anti-Jewish Allegations TEL AVIV, (JTA)—The anti- Jewish sentiments expressed by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush- chev in his statement to the Paris newspaper Le Figaro were sharply denounced by Moshe Sharett, former Premier of Is- rael, in an address at a mass meeting of immigrants from Russia held here. Speaking in Russian, Sharett expressed astonishment that such statements as those in the Khrushchev interview in Le Figaro could be made by people who claimed to be the most pro- gressive. He added that the Khrushchev statement actually demonstrated five points which refuted all assertions made by former Soviet leaders with re- gard to Jews under Commu- nism. Sharett said the points were: 1. Khrushchev in effect acknowl- edged the existence of a Jewish nation; 2. He indicated that the Jewish nation remained unique in its communal appearance; 3. If You Turned ffte •IV•CLI* i upside Down You Worl'f Find a Finer Wine Than He admitted that a Jewish prob- lem exists in the Soviet Union; 4. He also admitted that the problem was not solved; 5. He acknowledged that the only so- lution of the Jewish problem w a s territorial concentration and national independence. Sharett said that the situation of the Jews in the Soviet Union continued to deteriorate and that the refusal of the Russian Jews to assimilate was a "quiet - Mogen Dovid Burns —So Does Jordan Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News JERUSALEM—A large fluo- rescent Mogen Dovid blazing on top of Mount Scopus for the celebration of Israel's tenth anniversary drew the ire of Jordan which filed a complaint of violation of the Armistice Agreement. The Mogen Dovid lit up the sky Tuesday night as the tiny garrison of Israelis on iso- lated Mount Scopus behind the Jordanian lines in old Jerusalem joined in the tenth year celebration. protest" against their fate but at the same time constituted a source of danger. The meeting called upon the Soviet government to permit Jews to emigrate from the So- viet Union. It demanded that Jews in Russia be permitted to maintain their own cultural and communal life. The rally also sent a message of greetings to Jews in the Soviet Union. Jordan Concentrates Tanks to Counter Parade JERUSALEM, (JTA) — The Jordan-controlled Radio Ramal- lah announced that Jordanian tanks and heavy equipment were being brought into the Old City of Jerusalem to counter the arrival in new Jerusalem of Israeli troops and equipment to participate in an Independence Day parade. The- official communique read over Radio Ramallah said that Jordanian Premier Samir Rifai had informed United Nations truce chief Maj. Gen. Carl C. von Horn of the Jordanian de- cision and that the Jordan gov- ernment had registered with Dr. Francisco Urrutia during his last visit here a protest against the Israeli action. This sudden turn on Jordan's part filled Israeli authorities with dismay, since they had given the UN truce set-up here ample advance notice of its in- tended actions and had not been told of any objections. Even the Jordanian communique ad- mitted that Gen. von Horn had told the Jordanians, in reply to their last minute protest, that he understood the Israeli equip- ment was being brought to Je- rusalem for decorative, not of- fensive, purposes. He was un- able to intervene, he told the Arabs, because the Israeli ac- tion was standard practice which had hitherto not been contested. Israeli troops continued comb- ing the dunes north of Migdal for Arab marauders who seri- ously wounded an Israeli civi- lian, Itzhak Izack, a recent im- migrant. Izack had been hired by a Migdal woman to bring hay from her field to a distant barn. She and her two children were 'in the wagon with Izack when two marauders sprang from the dunes and shot the immigrant, but spared the woman and chil- dren. An Israeli patrol near Beit Naballah in the Lydda area cap- tured one of four Jordanian sol- diers who were found on Israeli soil. The other three managed to escape. The captive was car- HARRY ABRAM SHORE CHEVROLET Announcing the Israel War Dead Are Remembered Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News TEL AVIV—A special order of the day, in the form of message to relatives of Israel servicemen from Brig.

Ben - Gurion reportedly sug- gested that the principle of dis- armament be applied to the Middle East region to diminish the possibility of an outbreak of war in the area. The gist of the reply is thought to be: Is- rael favors the banning of nu- clear weapons tests but believes that this can only be put into effect by a decision among the Big Powers. In a repercussion of the Mos- cow-Belgrade rift, the Israeli Communist delegation which was to participate - in the forth- coming national convention of the Yugoslav Communist Party cancelled its flight plans at the last minute. The Israeli Com- munists informed the Yugoslav delegation in Israel that its ac- tion was in line with Moscow's boycott of the Belgrade meet- ing. However, an Israeli Mapam delegation left for the Yugoslav capital to attend the parley. Mapam political secretary N. Peled told a press conference that Israel has high hopes that Yugoslavia will contribute to neutralizing the Middle East and possibly will be able to help promote direct Arab - Israel peace talks. 89 6T `9Z ITAV 10,000 American Zionists to Visit Israel During 10th Year NEW YORK, (JTA) — More Emanuel Neumann, ZOA presi- than 10,000 American Zionists dent, accused the U.S. Govern- are expected to visit Israel dur- ment of attempting to white- rying a Jordanian Army rifle ing its current 10th Anniver- wash President Nasser of Egypt sary Year, it was announced at with the purpose "to rehabili- and ammunition. a session of several hundred tate the Egyptian dictator in Israel Starts 10th members of the national execu- Free World opinion."
