Weizmann Guard

Jailed as Spy

TEL AVIV (JTA)-A guard
at the Weizmann Institute of

Science at Rehovot has been
arrested and will shortly be
brought to trial on charges of
espionage, police officials an-
nounced here this week. The
name of the arrested man was
not revealed.
The suspect, who has been
under detention since Novem-
ber, will face two charges:
passing information to a
foreign agent with the inten-
tion of violating the security
of the state, and passing in-
formation without authorization
with intent to harm the secur-
ity of the state.
The first charge carries a
maximum sentence of 15 years
in prison, while the latter may
bring up to a life term.
The Weizmann Institute has
a number of nuclear science
projects in progress and, like
other institutions of higher
learning in Israel, is working
on research contracts for the
United States armed forces.
The accused man has an
18-year-old son living in his
country of origin. This young
man is the child of his first
marriage. In Israel, he lives
with his second wife, a Polish
Christian, and a ten-year-old

son.

links with the anti - Semitic
League of Empire Loyalists and

tivities.

Moslem Court Rules
Boy Is Premier's Son

TEL AVIV, (JTA) - The
claim of Avraham Maziliah, a
Jewish boy living in an Israeli
kibbutz, of being the grandson
and sole heir of the late Nuri
Pasha es-Said, assassinated for-
mer Premier of Iraq, was up-
held by a Moslem religious court
in Jaffa.
Nuri Pasha's widow has made
an application to the High
Court in London, seeking con-
trol of the entire Nuri es-Said
estate. The boy's relatives here
entered a claim that he was the
sole heir. They claim that Avra-
ham was the son of a Jewish
mother and Nuri's only son,
Sabah.
The Arab religious court in
Jaffa, before whom attorney
Max Seligman, of Tel Aviv,
brought the case, heard wit-
nesses and ruled in favor of the
boy. Now Avraham's claim to
being the sole heir of the mur-
dered Iraqi Premier will be
certified to the High Court in
London.

corresponded with him while
he was still in Europe during
the interim period when the
Nazis had released him and the
American authorities were pon-

refuge. . .. Eventually the late
President F. D. Roosevelt in-
structed the State Department
to issue a visa and Lion Feuch-
twanger came to America in
1941. . . . He was fragile look-
ing, small in stature. . . . Even
his face had the contours of a
midget. . . . Yet his appearance

He told us, as a matter of fact,
that he followed a strict re-

He was a methodical person.

early rising and the diet of an
athlete. . . . His weight re-
mained always the same. . . .
Trim, lean, he was a bundle of
energy. . . . He was eager to
have his works published in
Yiddish and so we arranged
with the Jewish Morning Jour-
nal to print his "Josephus" and
"The Oppermanns" in serial
form. . . . The financial con-
sideration was far from im-
pressive b u t Feuchtwanger
liked the idea of being read in
Yiddish. . . .
The first interview, an exclu-
sive one, we obtained while
Feuchtwanger was in New
York. . . . It was really a dou-
ble interview for we had also

and his charming blonde wife.

suicide, was in a most jovial

paper. . . . His second on yel-
low, if we remember correctly.
. . . His final draft for the
publisher was on white paper.
. . In his household every-

body was nervous until he
reached the white paper stage.
. . . Then he calmed down and

his good humor returned. . .
But during the pink and yellow
phase s, Feuchtwanger was
tense and demanded silence
and permitted no interruptions.
. . . No visitors. . . . He was
a very meticulous craftsman.
. . . His research, especially
when he wrote his historical
novels, took him Jonger than
the actual writing. . . .
Feuchtwanger had at one
time, while still in Europe,
written a slender volume on a
series of conversations he had
with Stalin. . . . This book was
to plague him during his entire
life. . . . Unless the U. S. Gov-
ernment relented during the
last few years, Feuchtwanger,
we believe, was not granted his
U. S. citizenship. . . . He never
returned to Europe for he did
not care to travel on his Ger-
man passport. . . . From time
to time we received a short
note from him, always in his
own handwriting, in which he
answered questions we would
poSe him in connection with
his work. . . . He wanted to
see his novel, "The • Opper-
mans," dramatized for the
stage. . . . We secured the co-
operation of a playwright, but
nothing came of it because
Feuchtwanger did not approve
of the dramatization. • . . He

devoted to the region of Galilee
and especially to the various
eras of the city of Salad, be-
ginning with the Biblical era
down to Safad in the War of
Liberation.
Special interest was aroused
by the discussions of the im-
portant excavations carried out
in recent years in the ancient
city of Hazor. This was an im-
portant Cananite city in Galilee,
and it fell into the hands of
the Children of Israel in the
thirteenth or twelfth century
B.C.E. The archeologists are not
unanimous about the period in
which Hazor fell. Some say it
fell in the period of Joshua,
and others say in a later period.
But on one point all the
archeologists are agreed - that
the broad public in Israel shows
a very great interest in the
history of its country.
