Egypt Immovable
on Suez Seizures;
Await Dag's Visit

Direct .TTA Teletype Wire
To The Jewish News

LONDON (JTA)—On the eve
of United Nations Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold's
visit to Cairo this week, to
try to untangle the Israeli-
Egyptian impasse over freedom
of shipping through the Suez
Canal, the United Arab Repub-
lic indicated its intention to
continue its action against
Israel.
The Egyptian War Prize Com-
mission, at Alexanderia, has
confirmed the confiscation of
an Israeli cargo, taken at Port
Said last March from the
freighter Kapitan Manolis. The
$89,000 cargo of phosphates and
cement, bound from Haifa to
Ceylon, was officially declared
by the UAR as "stolen goods,"
belonging to Arab refugees
whose land had been "usurped"
by the Israelis.
Hammarskjold's immediate
concern is the cargo aboard
the Danish freighter Inge Toft.
That ship has been tied up at
Port Said since May 21. The
Egyptians announced they
would confiscate that cargo as
a "war prize," as soon as the
captain of the Inge Toft has
the shipment unloaded. The
skipper persists in refusing to
unload the cargo.
Hammarskjold was to arrive
in Cairo this week. and is sched-
uled to be there two days.

Dr. Hallen

Dr. Horace M. Kallen, honor-
ary vice-president of the Amer-
ican Jewish Congress, in a pub-
lic address recently in New
York. urged a public letter-
writing campaign to President
Eisenhower calling for the re-
lease of Morton Sobell, current-
ly serving a 30-year prison term
for conspiracy to commit espi-
onage.
The noted educator, who is ,
research professor of philoso- 1
phy at the New School for So-
cial Research in New York, was
joined in the appeal by Prof.
Thomas Emerson, of the Yale
University law school. and Prof.
Murray Branch, of Morehouse
College.
In his address. Dr. Kallen,
the author of several scholarly
texts, told of his original skep-
ticism regarding the innocence
of Sobell, who was convicted
with atom spies Julius and Eth-
el Rosenberg, who were con-
demned to death.
Dr. Kallen told the audience
that a "West Coast" colleague
first raised the question of So-
bell's imprisonment with him.
and that Mrs. Sobell had sent
him literature after that time.
"which I could no longer ig-
nore."
He also outlined his role in
formulating. along with leading
Protestant theologian Reinhold
Niebuhr and other prominent
Americans. a statement urging
commutation of Sobell's prison
term.
This statement notes five con-
siderations r e a c h e d indepen-
dently of any "organization.
committee or group of any kind
concerned with the Rosenbergs
or that of Sobell." They are:
I. Sobell was never impli-
cated with atomic espionage
for which the Rosenbergs were
convicted (confirmed by the
judge who sentenced Sobell):
2. The charges against Sobell
were supported mainly by the
testimony of one man (Max
. Elitcher) who reported that on
one occasion Sobell had -taken
something to Julius Rosenberg
which looked like a can of film:
3. The emotions surrounding
the trial of the Rosenbergs and
the trying of Sobell's case with
theirs ought to be given full
recognition:
4. Sobell already has served.
with good conduct. nearly nine
years in prison. six of them in
_
Alcatraz. and
5. As Americans. fully aware
of the threat of Communism to
our freedom and way of life.
any attack on that freedom
must be resisted. Nevertheless.
one of the factors which makes
that freedom so precious is its
capacity to practice a disci-
plined and humane administra-
tion of justice precisely in those
cases where e mot ions are
aroused. . . We believe a com-
mutation of the Sobell sentence
would demonstrate our nation-
al faith in that freedom.

ate an agreement between the
Netherlands and West Germany
on German indemnification of
Dutch victims of Nazi persecu-
tions.
The foreign ministers of the
two countries, it was announced
here, will meet near Frankfurt
Am Main next Tuesday to try
to settle a number of problems.
among them the issue of in-
deninification.
Indemnification negotiations
were started between the Dutch
and the Germans two years ago
but have been interrupted
several times. The Dutch are
pressing claims totalling 220,-
000,000 Deutsche marks, a fig-
ure disputed by the Germans.
Other subjects on the agenda
for the foreign ministers con-

Dutch property seized by the
Nazis and rectification of the
Dutch-German borders.

Aid to ViCtims
of Nazis Urged
by Machrowicz

WASHINGTON ( J T A ) —
Rep. Thaddeus M. Machrowicz.
Michigan Democrat, urged a
House committee to approve
new legislation that 'would use
funds from frozen Nazi assets
io pay compensation to v i ct i ms
of the Nazis.
The Congressman testified on
his bill before the House War
Claims Subcommittee. It pro-
vides for compensation to vic-
tims who are now American
citizens or permanent residents
whether or not they were dur-
ing the war. At present. the
only claims allowed are those
from persons who were U.S.
citizens during the war.
Rep. Machrowicz pointed out
that many persons who suffered
under the Nazis came to Amer-
ica as' displaced persons after
1945.

Where there is no reverence,
for the Bible. there can be no
true refinement of manners. —
