State Dept. Is Charged With Trying
to Foil Action on Anti-Boycott Bill
NEW YORK — (JTA) — The
American Jewish Congress charged
that State Department officials
were seeking to prevent passage
of a Senate bill designed to frus-
trate the Arab boycott of Israel.
In a letter to Secretary of State
Dean Rusk, the Jewish group said
the State Department was "ap-
parently not only unwilling to pro-
tect American business from Arab
boycott demands but determined
not to let anyone else do anything
either."
The letter, signed by Will Mas-
low, executive director of the Con-
gress, said the target of State De-
partment efforts was a bill intro-
duced by Senator Jacob K. Javits,
Republican of New York, and Sen.
Harrison B. Williams, Democrat
of New Jersey.
The bill, which amends the
Export Control Act of 1949,
would make it unlawful for
American businessmen to impart
the kind of information custom-
arily demanded in Arab boycott
questionaires circulated in the
United States, including infor-
mation about the identity and
Israel Probes Report
That Spain Harbors
Closed to Its Ships
JERUSALEM — Israel's foreign
ministry began an investigation
Wednesday of reports in maritime
circles that Spain has been refus-
ing to grant harbor facilities to
Israeli shipping, presumably under
pressure from the Arab League.
While the ministry is not sure of
the authenticity of the reports, a
spokesman for the ministry said
that Israel would ask a friendly
nation which has a legation in
Spain to clarify the matter. Israel
has no legation in Spain.
Reports have reached maritime
circles in Haifa that, recently,
Israeli vessels entering Spanish
harbors have been refused the
usual port facilities or, when such
were given, that was done after
intervention by Spanish firms.

Thirty-one Senators have joined
in co-sponsoring the Senate bill
while companion bills have been
introduced in the House by 11 Rep-
resentatives, it was stated. In its
letter to Secretary Rusk, the
American Jewish Congress charged
that State Department officials
had sought to apply "pressures"
on Senate sponsors of the bill "to
withdraw the measure or schedule
no public hearings on it."
In Detroit, a heavy letter-writ-
ing campaign was launched this
week, with local residents urging
their Congressmen to vote for the
Williams-Javits bill.
Jordan Delegate
to Preside Over
Security Council
UNITED NATIONS, New York
—Abdel Monem Rifai, Jordan's
permanent representative here,
will become the president of the
Security Council Thursday for the
month of April. His assumption of
that office is in accord with the
Council's rule for rotating the pres-
idency each month in alphabeti-
cal order of the names of the 11
countries on the body. Ambassa-
dor Rifai succeeds Arsenne Usher
of the Ivory Coast, who was presi-
dent for March.
Rifai showed his anti-Israel bias
on his first day on the Council a
month ago when Usher extended
a routine welcome to him and two
other new Council members. Al-
though that was a pure formality,
the Jordanian went out of his way
to voice an anti-Israeli speech.
The very next day, he presented
to the Council two complaints
against Israel, one against Israel's
supposed plan to bring in heavy
military materials into Jerusalem
as part of the Independence Day
in May, the other mentioning un-
specified "aggressions" in the
Latrun area.
