ROME (JTA) — The town of
Saluzzo commemorated Monday the
20th anniversary of the Italian anti-
Nazi resistance against the German
occupation with a "Deportees Day"
which included religious cere-
monies in Jewish, Catholic and
Protestant rites.
Senator A. Caleffi, undersecre-
tary of public educatkons and presi-
dent of the Italian Association of
Former Deportees, recalled the suf-
ferings of the victims of Nazi con-
centration camps. A memorial
stone dedicating a street to the,
memory of Jewish deportees was
unveiled.

During the occupation, Saluzzo
was an important center of parti-
san activity. Many young Jews from

Piedmont fought among the parti-
sans against the Germans, and per- •

Israeli Experts
in D.C. for Talks
on Desalination

WASHINGTON (JTA)—A team

of Israeli experts arrived in Wash-

ington for joint American-Israeli
planning sessions to advance the
"LBJ Plan" for nuclear desalina
tion in Israeli. The talks opened
Wednesday at the U.S. Department
of the Interior.
The Israeli delegation is headed
by Gen. Zvi Tsur, of the Mekorot
Water Authority, who was ap-
pointed by Prime Minister Levi
Eshkol to serve as chief coordi-
nator for the desalination project.
Other members of the Israeli team
are Dr. Abraham Katz, specialist on
electricity; Aharon Weiner, head
of the Water Planning Company,
Tahal; and R. Tiberger, expert on
reactors of the Israel Atomic En-
ergy Commission. They will meet
here with American experts of the
Interior Department and Atomic
Energy Commission, who recently
visited Israel for preliminary
phases of the survey.
Together, _ the experts will now
formulate a joint resume to the
two governments on the practical
aspects of the project, its scope,
size, cost, and other details. The
project will use nuclear power to
desalt seawater while simulta-
neously generating low cost elec-
trical power. While in the United
States, the Israelis will view a de-
Salination project at Wrightsville
-
Beach, N.C., and the "Yankee Re-
actor" in New York State.
