Israel, Jordan Withdraw Complaints WJCongress Appeals to Soviet Union for Direct Talks
JERUSALEM (JTA)
T h e the statutes of limitations for ment for its efforts to commem-
on Incidents; Eshkol Warns Syria
World Jewish Congress, at the clos- prosecution of Nazi war criminals, orate the martyrdom of European

JERUSALEM (JTA)—Israel and
Jordan informed the United Na-
tions Jordanian-Israeli Mixed Armi-
stice Commission that each of the
governments has agreed to with-
draw complaints against the other,
growing out of recent border inci-
dents.
Each of the governments told
the commission that its withdrawal
of the complaints on these inci-
dents has been prompted by a de-
sire to ease tensions.
Meanwhile, Premier Levi Esh-
kol warned Syria that Israel's
restraint in the face of new
Syrian border attacks was not a
sign of weakness.
Speaking to a graduation parade
of air cadets on Air Force Day, at
an undisclosed air base, Eshkol,
who is also defense minister, said
that Israel demanded that United
Nations truce supervisory officials
"keep their eyes open and see who
actually is provoking border inci-
dents and who is interested in pro-
voking such incidents."
The Israel Foreign Ministry last
week rejected a report by the U.N.
Syrian-Israeli Mix e d Armistice
Commission on recent Syrian bor-
der incidents which sought to "bal-
ance" the picture by saying that
"both sides" fired, without stating
which side had opened the attacks.
"Even if we do not hurry to
react to their activity," the Pre-
mier told the cadets, "our enemies

should not make the mistake of
thinking that we do not foster our
strength and that we do not have
the strength to prevent incidents
when they are overdone."
He spoke of Israel's deterrent
power as a means of averting
war, and said: "While our neigh-
bors continue to wave war dec-
larations, it is not our way to
wave our military strength and
to remind the threatening rul-
ers of the existence and strength
of our power."
(In Amman, King Hussein said
in an interview with The New
York Times that the recent border
incidents had been initiated by
Israel to provoke the Arabs to mili-
tary retaliation, to divert world
attention from Israel's tap of the
Jordan River for its Negev irriga-
gation project.
(He claimed that 50,000 to 60,-
000 Jordanian farmers would be
deprived by the Israeli water proj-
ect of fresh water, but added that
"still, we do not intend to go to war
over this.")
The Air Force put on a display
of exceptional precision and ma-
neuverability of various types of
its jet planes. These included Ou-
raganes, Voutours, Mysteres and
Super-Mysteres. The display was
climaxed by a flight of Mirage jets,
Fouga jet trainers, Nord carriers
and helicopters.

ing session of its plenary meeting,
addressed an appeal to the Soviet
government for direct talks with
Jewish organizations on the posi-
tion of Soviet Jewry.
A resolution adopted by the
100 Jewish leaders from 30 coun-
tries attending the session voiced
the concern of world Jewry for
Soviet Jews, asked the Soviet gov-
ernment to permit reunion of Jew-
ish families separated by postwar
frontier changes and expressly dis-
sociated world Jewry from any
involvement in cold war politics.
The Soviet government was
urged to denounce incitement to
hatred of Jews in Russia and to
punish those responsible for pro-
pagation of such incitement.
Another resolution warned
against the revival of international
anti-Semitic and neo-Nazi activities
in Latin America and Europe and
sharply condemned the role of the
Arab League in such activities.

lations urged the West German

ADL Exposes Race Discrimination

by Realtors in Eastern Community

The Anti-Defamation League of
Bnai Brith revealed that it has
asked the Connecticut Commission
on Civil Rights to investigate re-
ports of a Greenwich "design to
exclude members of minority
groups from the community."
The League said rt had made its
request in a letter to Ralph Goglia,
chairman of the commission, follow-
ing a "test" of Greenwich real
estate brokers' attitudes toward
Negro and Jewish home seekers
made in the wake of a zoning
dispute.
The zoning dispute stemmed
from an unsuccessful petition by a
Greenwich property owner to lower
the four-acre requirement for build-
ing homes in certain areas of the
city to one-half acre.
Some supporters of the peti-
tion, which was denied by the
Greenwich Planning and Zoning
Commission, believe the four-
acre restriction is "in some
measure" an effort to limit avail-
able residential land and thus
lessen the opportunity of minor-
ity groups seeking to settle in
the community.
The ADL test disclosed "signifi-
cant anti-Negro prejudice" on the
part of Greenwich real estate
brokers but no discrimination
against Jews "on the first level of
house hunting."
In a report sent to the Commis-
sion, the League said it had sent
eight teams—each composed of a
Negro, Jewish,_and white Christian
couple—to eight real estate brokers
who are members of the Greenwich
Real Estate Board. In making ap-
pointments, spread out over a
weekend, each couple asked to be
shown a three-bedroom house at
a price of about $35,000.
According to the report, the
broker who had handled the Negro
couple told her white Christian

clients of her "harrowing exper-
ience" in having to show homes to
Negroes who had made their ap-
pontment by phone. She apologized
for being late in meeting the white
Christian couple, explaining that
she had first observed them from
a distance to determine their race.
The same agent said the own-
ers of the homes she had shown
to the Negroes were "upset by
the experience" and recalled that
in a previous situation she had
been able to telephone the build-
er of houses under construction
so that when the Negro couple
arrived at the site, 'sold" signs
were posted on the partially
finished units. "It will be a long
time in Greenwich before inte-
gration," the agent declared.
The other six brokers tested all
gave "adverse differential treat-
ment" to the Negro couples. One
broker showed three houses to the
Negro couple sent to him, but
showed ten to the Jewish couple
and six to the white Christians,
with an invitation to see more if
they wished.
Another broker showed seven
houses to the white Christian cou-
ple and none to the Negro—on the
ground that they were 30 minutes
late for their appointment. The
broker made no attempt to sched-
ule another appointment.
The four remaining brokers gave
ample time and attention to the
Jewish and white Christian couples,
but were "extremely abrupt" with
the Negro home seekers.
The League said it remains to be
determined whether the Greenwich
real estate brokers "are inflicting
their personal dislikes upon the
community, or whether they reflect
the community's wishes."
