Jordan Frees Israeli
Guard after 4 Years

Mrs. Meir to Head Israeli UN
Delegation; Ben-Gurion Wants
Her to Remain Foreign Minister

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — An
Israel border policeman was re-
turned here after spending four
years in a Jordanian prison.
Moshe Binyamin was seized
by the Jordanians when he
crossed the border four years
ago, and sentenced to 17 years
imprisonment as a "spy." Israel
had demanded his release im-
mediately after he was arrested,
but he was held.
A Jordanian infiltrator, serv-
ing a long sentence in Israel,
was returned to Jordan at the
same time. Israel police are
now investigating the circum-
stances of Binyamin's crossing
of the border.
Israel coastal poli -ce this
week arrested four Lebanese
who were fishing illegally, in
Israel waters. The fishermen
were using explosives, which
are barred by Israel law.
When captured, the four
claimed there were no fish in
Lebanese waters and, since they
were hungry, they chose to fish
in Israel waters. The police,
who view with gravity the con-
tinuous practice by Lebanese
of using explosives in Israel
waters, will demand severe pun
ishment for the violators to -de-
ter other Lebanese from fishing
here.

BUENOS AIRES (JTA)—The
70th anniversary of the modern
settlement of Jews in Argentina
was observed widely by Jewish
communities throughout the
country.
It was in 1889 when the first
group of Eastern European
Jews came to Buenos Aires
aboard the S.S. Weser, settling
in a newly-established agricul-
tural colony, named Moisesville,
in Santa Fe province. The 136
settlers were all from the
Ukrainian section of Czarist
Russia. With the help of the
Jewish Colonization Association,
and the backing of the late
Baron Maurice de Hirsch, the
next five decades saw the estab-
lishment of 25 Jewish agricul-
tural colonies, with a total popu-
lation of 28,000 settlers.
Meanwhile, large-scale Jewish
immigration was directed to-
ward the larger cities. DAIA,
the representative body of Ar-
gentine Jews, with headquarters
in Buenos Aires, was formed in
1934, and now has more than
100 affiliates throughout the
country. The Jewish population
of Argentina in 1957 was esti-

"The results were amazingly
more than satisfying," Dr.
Chaim Shela, director of the
hospital, said later. "For his
age, his blood pressure is nor-
mal, his eyes clear, his diges-
tive system functions in order—
in short, he is healthy and in
terms of insurance company
rates, he can lower his pre-
mium."
Dr. Shela attributed much of
the Premier's excellent condi-
tion to his practice of taking
long walks daily.

JERUSALEM (JTA)—Prime
Minister David Ben-Gurion, 73
years old, "is in good shape
and is a good insurance risk,"
his doctor said after the Pre-
mier had undergone day-long
physical tests at the Tel
Hashomer Government Hos-
pital.
Ben-Gurion arrived at the
hospital early on Aug. 12
after having taken his custom-
ary six-kilometer walk and was
immediately put through an
exhaustive series of examina-
tions.
