Fulbright Nullifies Kennedy Clause
Opposing Discriminatory Arab Tactics
(Continued from Page 1)
. Rep. S e y m o u r Halpern,
New York Republican, an-
nounced that he would fight
in the House against the Ful-
bright amendment because it
"seeks to nullify the already

watered-down anti-discrimina-
tion clause" in the new
Mutual Security Act and is
"a further retreat from pre-
vious expressions by CongresS
against discriminatory Arab
tactics."
Halpern said
Fulbright's
wording calling for "the
avoidance of taking sides"
actually "obscured the whole
issue because we have too long
delayed taking sides between
right and wrong not only in
the Suez Canal blockade issue
but also in defense of the basic
rights of our own citizens and
shipping subjected to Arab prej-
dice."
Senator Keating, co-sponsor
of the Douglas-Keating amend-
ment calling on the Presi-
dent to deny foreign aid to
Arab states practicing dis-
criminatory boycott and block-
ade procedures; announced
Tuesday that if the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
does not strike out a nullify-
ing clause added by Fulbfight
to this year's bill, "I certainly
shall make such a motion on
the Senate floor and I believe
that Senator Paul Douglas
(Illinois Democrat) will sup-
port the motion."
According to Senator Keat-
ing, "Congress should be on rec-
ord - in the strongest possible
terms opposing use of foreign

Meanwhile, House Foreign

said that not only was the
"Fulbright nullification" un-=
acceptable llut the original
clause adopted by the Sen-
ate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee was "a retreat from the
stand of the House Foreign

matter."
The House committee made
known it would seek not only

JERUSALEM—Israel's Parlia-
ment sustained, at a special ses-
sion Monday night, a decision
of the Cabinet last December
clearing Pinhas Lavon of respon-
sibility for a security disaster
which occurred in 1954 when
Lavon was Defense Minister.
The action was a rebuke to
Prime Minister David Ben-Gur-
ion and his Mapai party. It
came in the form of two resolu-
tions adopted unanimously with
Mapai deputies abstaining. One
resolution declared that the re-
signation of a cabinet did not
nullify its decisions. The other
said that, in consequence, the
cabinet's decision accepting the
findings of a special seven-man
ministerial committee in the
secrecy-shrouded dispute still
was valid.
Four Cabinet ministers who
had served on the ministerial
committee spoke during the de-
bate. They were Rosen, Health
Minister, Israel Barzilai, Trans-
port Minister Yitzhak Benaha-
ron and Interior Minister Moshe
Shapiro.
The Prime Minister left the
chamber when Mena chem
Beigin, leader of the Herut
party, took the floor.

• TEL AVIV — A- high -speed
electronic computer was pur-
chased in the United States re-
cently by the Israel ,Defense
Ministry for use by the army and
other security forces.
The computer, which has a
reading capacity of 180,000 let-
ters per second, compares with
a computer now in use at the
Weizmann Institute which has
2,000-letter-per-second capacity.
The new computer is one of
only ten such devices now in
existence. It will be operated for
Israel's military forces by scient-
ists from the Hebrew University,
the Haifa Technion and the
WeiZmann Institute who were
trained in the United States.
Defense sources said -the com-
puter is highly important in mod-
ern army operations since,
through it, any headquarters can
obtain the exact status of forces,
supplies and transport at any
given time.

Fulbright said he opposed
using the foreign aid bill
as "a club" to force Arab states
to change their policies. He said
the bill should avoid taking
sides in such "controversies" as
those affecting Israel and the
Arabs. Other committee mem-
bers disagreed, pointing out that
Arab bigotry affected American
citizens of Jewish faith, and
that the United States should
withhold aid from nations dis-
criminating against our citizens.
The wording, submitted by
President K e n n e d y, that
Fulbright and his faction op-
posed, was actually weaker than
last y ea r' s Douglas-Keating
amendment. The new clause
merely is part of a preamble
supporting "freedom of navi-
gation in international water-
ways, and recognition of the
right of all private_ persons to
travel and pursue their lawful
activities without discrimination
as to race or religion."
