Senator Fulbright
Attacks Israel on
Atomic Power Use

WASHINGTON, (JTA)—Chair-
man J. W. Fulbright of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee attacked Israel this week
on the atomic bomb issue in the
course of a committee hearing
on the qualifications of Murat
W. Williams, former U.S. Em-
bassy counselor in Tel Aviv,
named by President Kennedy as
new Ambassador to El Salvador.
, Senator Fulbright asked Wil-
liams if he knew of atomic bomb
manufacture in Israel being kept
secret from the United States.

mer the Embassy was aware of
some nuclear activities and
pointed out that Israel, in verify-
ing the existence of such research,
had emphasized its peaceful pur-
pose.
Senator Fulbright, however, in-
ferentially attacked the Israel
atomic program, the .c text
