addressed letters to American
enterprises requesting informa-
tion about their relations with
Israel or Israeli firms.
Segal referred specifically to
a letter addressed by the Boy-
cott Affairs Department of the
Kuwait government to Sam-
uel Shulsinger, head of a New
York printing firm engaged in
the printing of Jewish books,
periodicals and other printed
matter. He attached a copy of
this letter to his complaint to
the State Department. Kuwait,
a sheikhdom on the Persian
Gulf, has sent such letters to
American firms all over the
United States warning them
against doing business with Is-
rael on pain of Arab boycott.
Pointing out that these let-
ters are "an outright example
of Arab boycott which is be-
ing conducted in the United ,
States against American citi-
zens," Segal asked the State
Department to advise him as
to what action can be taken
"in this most serious and
urgent matter." In a reply
received from the office of
the Near Eastern Affairs of
the State Department, Segal
was told that the Kuwait
letter "will be cited" by the
State Department "as we con-
tinue to register our govern-
ment's disapproval of Arab
boycott activities."
The reply added:
"As you know, the boycott is
only one of several disturbing
problems arising out of the
Arab-Israel conflict. It is our

Which Made Major
Discovery in Italy
ROME, (JTA) — Widespread
press attention has been given
to a major archaeological dis-
covery in northern Italy, after
four years of research, by a
team led by Emanuel Anati, an
Israeli archaeologist.
The team unearthed docu-
mentation on the existence of a
community which lived in the
area, near Lake Iseo, 2,000 years
B.C.E. The community left
artifacts of its existence in rock
drawings. Anati, who was
born in Florence, was graduat-
ed from the Hebrew University.
He completed his studies at
Harvard University and the
Sorbonne in Paris.
