UN Discusses Right
of Jewish Migration
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.,
(JTA)—Demands for measures
that would, on the one hand,
permit Jews to emigrate from
the Soviet Union and would, in
another context, prohibit inter-
national dissemination of anti-
Semitic and other hate-monger-
ing materials were made here
at the meeting of the Subcom-
mission on Prevention of Dis-
crimination and Protection of
Minorities.
Judge Philip Halpern, Ameri-
can member of the subcommis-
sion, continued to press the
group for adoption of a report
which would give to all peoples
"the right to leave any coun-
try." Judge Halpern, who has
been advocating adoption of
such a report for the past two
years, was opposed by A. A. Fo-
min, Soviet representative on
the unit. However. neither of
the speakers mentioned the
USSR specifically.
Dr.,, Gerhardt Jacoby, repre-
sentative of the World Jewish
Congress, asked the sub-commis-
sion to help outlaw dissemina-
tion of material which advocate
"national, racial or religious hos-
tility" or constitute "incitement
to hatred or violence."
Russian Envoy R eturns to Israel
TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Mikhail
Bodrov, Soviet Ambassador to
Israel, returned here after two
months of home leave in the
USSR. It was learned in Em-
bassy circles that Bodrov will
shortly confer with Foreign Min-
ister Golda Meir and, possibly,
with Premier David Ben-Gurion.
The Soviet diplomat has devel-
oped friendly contacts with the
Premier.
Several days ago Israel lodged
a strong protest against a "blood
charge" of murder made in an
official Russian journal, "Inter-
national Life," which falsely
blames Israeli authorities for in-
citing the murder, last Novem-
ber, of Mrs. Joyce Doran, wife
of the British air attache here.
Mrs. Doran was killed by Sy-
rian infiltrators. Her body, with
three Arab-marked bullets, was
found 60 meters inside Israel's
side of the Syrian frontier. The
head of Israel's Foreign Minis-
try's East European division
summoned the Soviet charge
d'affaires and protested the
article.
"International Life" is spon-
sored by the Soviet Foreign
Ministry. The article, which the
Israel Foreign Ministry calls
"unprecedented," makes allega-
tions which "even the Arabs
have not dared voice." The For- 1
eign Ministry also pointed out to
the Russian representative that
the article fails to mention that
a United Nations investigation
had "clearly established" the
fact that Syrian infiltrators had
murdered Mrs. Doran.
