Assistant Sec. of State Dutton Justifies Increased American Aid to United Ara b Republic No Protest to be Made Against Israeli-Made German Uniforms (Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News) JERUSALEM — Minister of Commerce and Industry Pinhas Sapir told the Knesset Tuesday that he would not order an Israeli firm making uniforms for West German soldiers to can c el its contract. He made the statement in plying, on behalf of the govern- ment, to questions concerning this issue. The clothing is being manufactured in this country by ATA, an Israeli textile firm. Sapir declared he did not think that "the supply of uni- forms to the Bundesweter con- stituted an affront to Jewish workers." One of the parliamen- tary questioners had asked the Minister whether it was true that ATA workers were being subjected "to what amounts to tyranny" when they were or- dered by the company's manage- ment to work on the German uniform manufacture on threat of dismissal. Sapir replied that the ATA management had denied such coercion. BORENSTEIN'S BOOK SALE Over 200 Titles To Choose From!

T h r e e- quarters of American aid, $221.3 million in commodity shipments, represented o n 1 y surplus food, said Dutton. He justified the Egyptian- Soviet arms trade by saying that there was no market in the West for Egyptian cotton "at reasonable prices" and that "were the U.S. now to cease aid, the U.A.R.'s ability to pur- chase arms would not be sub- stantially affected." Sen. Keating said he was "glad to have the reassurance," although he was not in full accord with the department's reasoning. He is the author of a proviso, known as the Keat- ing-Halpern Amendment, now incorporated in foreign a i d legislation, requiring that U.S. aid "is not used directly or in- directly to finance Soviet arms purchases." The Senator said it was "a source of concern . . . to see President Nasser deliberately stepping up the arms race . . He stressed that "direct nego- tiations, not appeasement must be our aim." He said "I shall be following this situation closely to insure that the present language in the foreign aid bill is enforced and that our government does not subsidize, directly or in- directly, Arab militarism or propaganda."
