Technion Scientists Find
New Way to Extract
Oils From Avocados
HAIFA—A simple new process
for the industrial extraction of oil
from avocados and other oily fruits
has been developed by applied
scientists at the Technion, Israel
Institute of Technology.
Dr. Arie Letan, a member of the
food industries instruction station
of the Technion Research and De-
velopment Foundation, conducted
the research which led to the new
process. The discovery was made
as a result of a two-fold research
and dvelopment program under-
taken at the station for the Milouot
Co. of Haifa. Avocado oil can be
used for dietetic, gastronomic, nu-
tritional and cosmetic purposes.
This new process may be of par-
ticular interest to tropical coun-
tries looking for, additional uses
for their many tons of surplus
fruit.
Arabs' Military Plans
WASHINGTON—A clearly de-
fined American policy toward Arab
military preparations and plans to
dam rivers flowing into Israel was
asked by Jewish War Veterans
National Commander Ralph Plof-
sky of White Plains, N.Y., in a
statement on the Arab summit con-
ference in Cairo.
Plofsky said that United States
aid and loans, subsidized by the
American taxpayer, bolster the
economies of many of •the 13 Arab
countries "which just pledged vast
sums of their own resources for
the unproductive and spiteful block-
ing of rivers and activation of ag-
gfessive military steps, which could
trigger war in the Middle East and
even escalate into a world holo-
caust. This is American tax-paid
aid to activities about as worthy
as 'Arab Assassins, Inc. "
The JWV leader said the Arab
measures agreed at Cairo violated
the spirit of President Lyndon B.
Johnson's commitments on peace
and justice in the Near East.

Homeowners Item
Reported Heavily
Opposed by Jews
An examination of the vote on
the "homeowners' rights" ordi-
nance shows-that areas containing
substantial numbers of Jewish
residents voted heavily .against the
ordinance, according to an eval-
uation presented to the Jewish
Comunity Council's executive com-
mittee.
The ordinance, which appeared
as Amendment I on the Sept. 1
primary ballot, was opposed by
"Citizens for a United Detroit,"
of which the Jewish Community
Council was one of the member
agencies.
Although the ordinance was
adopted by a plurality of 23,000
votes, voting precincts located in
predominately Jewish areas re-
ported totals as high as 10-1
against the homeowners proposal.
The ordinance was defeated by
substantial margins in every one
of the precincts located in the
areas between Six and Seven Mile
Roads and between Wyoming and
Livernois. Voters at polling sites
located at the Labor Zionist Insti
tute, the Jewish COmmunity Cent-
er, and the Pasteur School also re-
jected the ordinance.
The report rejected claims
which characterized the vote as an
indication of the so-called "white
backlash." Acknowledging that the
vote represented a temporary set-
back to the steady progress that
Detroit has achieved in community
relations over the past 20 years,
"backlash" charges are upsubstan
dated when the vote on the or-
dinance is placed in perspective
and related to other results in the
primary election.
Immediately following the elec-
tion the Mibhigan Civil Rights
Commission indicated its inten-
tion to bring suit in the hope of
