JERUSALEM, (JTA) —
Israel's parliament approved by
a vote of 51 to 34 Premier Levi
Eshkol's first policy statement
since he took office.
The Premiere had called on
the major powers to safeguard
peace in the Middle East, an-
nounced the abolition of major
military rule restrictions on
Arabs in some parts of Israel
and pledged continued efforts
against aid by West German
scientists to the Egyptian wea-
pons development program.
Discussing questions raised
during the debate which fol-
lowed his presentation on Mon-
day, the Premier said that
Israel was following a dual
policy regarding the possibility
of alliances or guarantees to
preserve Mideast peace. He said
"we are acting and will con-
tinue to act as though there
is no hope of an alliance or
guarantees, relying on our own
strength but we shall endeavor
in every possible way to achieve
wider international understand-
ing and we shall act as though
alliances or guarantees are
possible."
In reply to critics who asked
for more details in Israeli plans
for peace with the Arab coun-
tries, the Premier recalled the
six-point plan presented to the
United Nations General As-
sembly earlier this month by
Mrs. Golda Meir, Israel's For-
eign Minister in which she re-
iterated Israel's readiness to
discuss unresolved issues with
the Arab countries. He added
that at the first serious hint of
a desire for peace by the Arabs,
"we will have something to say
and we are prepared to sit down
at a peace table."
He counseled patience over
demands for complete abolition
of military government over the
Israeli Arabs. He noted that
with the newly instituted relax-
ations permitting free move-
ment for most Israeli Arabs
without the formerly required
travel permits, only the "frame-
work" of military rule was be-
ing maintained and that it was
the fervent hope of the govern-
ment that- it would not need to
be used. He added that the com-
plicated situation of Israel's
security had not been created
by Israeli or Arab citizens but
by Israeli's neighbors. T h e
government, he said, was look-
ing forward to complete elimina-
tion of military rule.
Zealots Attack
JERUSALEM, (JTA) — The
Cabinet dealt with rioting Sat-
urday night by ultra-Orthodox
zealots in which a mob of resi-
dents of Jerusalem's Meah She-
arim quarter broke into a near-
by Education Ministry building,
smashing doors, windows and
furniture, resulting in damage
and destruction in about 20
rooms of the building.
A report on the incident, in
which the rioters also attempted
to set a fire to a police patrol
car parked outside the building,
was made to the Cabinet by
Education Minister Zalman
Aranne. Prime Minister Levi
Eshkol reiterated during the
Cabinet session that the govern-
ment and police will take all
measures to prosecute those
responsible.
The attack on the. Education
Ministry building followed day-
long clashes over Sabbath traf-
fic near the Meah Shearim
quarter between the zealots and
the police in which a number
of police were injured by stone-
t hr owing demonstrators and
nine of the zealots were ar-
rested. Police used firehoses
on the demonstrators who
hurled rocks and bottles at po-
lice units stationed in the quar-
ter in efforts to prevent re-
currence of the anti-traffic riot-
ing.
Dr. Joseph Burg, Minister for
Social Welfare, narrowly es
caped injury by a stone thrown
from one of the balconies when
he visited the quarter yester-
day with Religious Affairs Min-
ister Zorach Warhaftig. One
Orthodox Jew, who attempted
to argue -with the zealots
against the preservation of the i
Sabbath through violence, was
seriously injured by a rock
thrown at close range near the
Mandelbaum Gate yesterday
morning.
Prime Minister Levi Eshkol
said the government is deter-
mined "to protect public
rights and the freedom of
traffic" in Jerusalem.
At the same time it became
apparent that S h i v t a i Israel
Street, scene of many of the
acts of violence, may be re-
routed and a bypass set up to
provide for Sabbath traffic for
diplomats and others who have
been abused in order to avert
further outbreaks.

What Famous Leaders
Think of the Israel
Histadrut Campaign
ARTHUR J. GOLDBERG

in ethical
"Humanitarianism, - rooted
principles, binds our two countries, our
two labor movements, and all of us as
individuals, together in a common pur-
suit of a world devoted to peace in free-
dom. We are engaged in a great effort
to break new ground for human welfare
and for freedom. I salute our partners,
the people of Israel, and their great labor
movement, Histadrut, which stands as a
symbol of human dignity."
WILLIAM 0. DOUGLAS
Associate Justice
U.S. Supreme Court
"I feel that I should like to give Histadrut
an award for inventiveness, originality
and courage for the great pioneer work
it does. I think that the work of Histro-
dut that I have seen in Israel, is some
of the most challenging anywhere in the
world. It will be the ideas of charity, of
humanity, of fraternity and mutual help
that will ultimately govern and control.
Those are the ideas that Histradut has
developed in Israel."
