The direct talks in Moscow be- tween the United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union, on the banning of atomic tests in the air under water, was cited by Eshkol as best proof for the need of direct Arab-Israel ne- gotiations to achieve Arab- Israel peace. The Israeli Prime Minister said the successful results of the Moscow talks encourage Israel to continue to ask for direct negotiations with the Arabs. Direct talks, he stressed, bear the best results. "I do not know of a better so- lution to the Arab-Israel prob- lem than direct negotiations," he declared. The Big Power treaty initialed in Moscow last week, he said, should be re- garded as a gateway to more understanding between oppos- ing blocks, but it is still to be seen if it has any bearing on the situation in the Middle East. Regarding Israel's relations with the Soviet Union, Eshkol said Israel had tried on a num- ber of occasions to achieve an improvement h e r e, but that Israel found no listening ears. Similarly, he said Israel had also revealed its good will to- ward Communist China, but "we wanted and still expect a more positive reaction." With regard to the threat voiced by Egypt's President Nasser last week at the military parade in Cairo, in which he emphasized that he is preparing "to free Palestine of Zionists," Eshkol said that Israel's reply to this threat will be military preparations. "The best reply to prepara- tions is preparations," he stated. "I am often blamed for speaking too much of peace. Yet this does not come instead of alertness and prepardness. There will be no easy going about this." Regarding atomic research in Israel, Eshkol said the at- omic reactor in Dimona is progressing according to plan, though there are the normal delays of engineering and con- struction adjustments. He said he does not contemplate any visit or meeting with the heads of states outside Israel in the next few months, and that the Foreign Minister, Mrs. Golda Melt', would head Israel's dele- gation to the United Nations General Assembly, scheduled to convene in September. The Prime Minister said he favors the introduction to Is- rael of educational television and, in due course, might con- sider the establishment of a general television network for the country. As to proposals to bring the remains of the late Zionist Revisionist leader, Zeev Jabotinsky, to Israel for re- burial, Eshkol said he does not consider dealing with this ques- tion in the near future. Jabot- insky had requested in his will ; prior to his death in 1940, that the Jewish State, which he fore- saw, bring his remains to the State for reburial. 0 * STOCKHOLM, (JTA) — The nuclear test ban treaty initialed in Moscow last week by the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union is "not, in itself, enough to affect the Middle East situation," Abba Eban, Israel's vice-Prime Minister, declared here. "Later developments," he said, may affect the situation. "But," he added, "the lessening of world tensions will favor our region." Eban made that statement to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency upon his arrival this morning to attend a meeting of scien- tists discussing the contribu- tions of Weizmann Institute of Science at Rehovot. His first official meeting here was with Sweden's Prime Min- ister Tage Erlander, with whom he exchanged impressions re- garding the general interna- tional situation. It was Erlander's First conference with a member of the recently formed Israeli government. Canada Tenders Farewell to Herzog OTTAWA (JTA) — Ambassa- dor Yaacov Herzog took his leave of Prime Minister Pearson and Foreign Minister Paul Mar- tin. At an official farewell luncheon tendered by the gov- ernment of Canada, Martin, ex- pressing regrets at the Am- bassador's departure, lauded not only his services for Israel in Canada, but no less for what he had done for Canada and the deep friendship he had de- veloped toward Canada.

Tapper, 60, prominent Jewish resident of Winnipeg Beach, north of this city, was elected mayor of Win- nipeg Beach. Tapper had one opponent, Patrick E. Irwin. He is the first Jew ever elected to that office. Tapper has been active in Jewish and general community affairs for many years. He is a past president of Bnai Brith Lodge 650, former international deputy for AZA, Bnai Brith youth organization, and a mem- ber of Shaarey Zedek Congre- gation. He is a member of an early pioneering family in this area, dating back to the 1870's. The names of his parents, Elias and Yetta Tapper, were listed in Winnipeg's first city direc- tory. In an interview with the Jewish Post here, Tapper de- clared: "I attribute my election not only to my election workers in Winnipeg Beach and the city, but .to the entire non-Jewish element, by far the greatest majority of electors, who are very much ashamed and revolt- ed by the recent defacing of the synagogue and the swastika contagion at the Beach." According to the World Al- manac, the probability of draw- ing a perfect bridge hand — 13 spades—is 1 in 635,013,559,600 deals.
