The Land of Milk
and Honey Sours
for 24 Marranos -
TEL AVIV—Unanticipated prob-
lems were disclosed Wednesday to
have complicated the integration
of the newly arrived 24 Spanish
Marranos, whose ancestors were
forcibly converted to Catholicism
nearly 500 years ago in Spain.
It was learned that the new-
comers had not been told that their
return to the Jewish fold would
involve a year-long procedure in-
cluding circumcision for all male
newcomers. They were told that as
construction workers, they would
be in demand in Israel. However,
they arrived during a building
slump last month, and their bread-
winners have been given work on
relief projects, such as clearing
rocks.
The independent daily Haaretz
called for disciplinary action
against officials of the Jewish
Agency immigration department
who involved the newcomers and
Israel in a difficulty that was
"not in the national interest and
dubious from a moral and
religious standpoint."
Yediot Ahronot asserted that
"overzealous representatives" in
other countries "must be restrain-
ed." Haaretz said the ultimate
responsibility rested with Jewish
officials who arranged the immi-
gration.
Israel to Set Up
Cambodia Mission;
Vietnam Ruled Out
JERUSALEM (JTA)—A foreign
ministry spokesman. said today
that Israel plans to establish soon
a permanent diplomatic mission in
Cambodia. which is now served by
a nonresident Israeli envoy.
Reaffirming the government's
policy of not establishing diploma-
tic relations with South Viet Nam
at the present time, the spokesman
said that Israel has diplomatic re-
lations and resident envoys in all
the countries of former French
Indo-China, except Viet Nam. The
appointment in Cambodia was at-
tributed to developing relations
with that country, to which Israel
is giving technical aid, mainly in
agriculture.
Foreign Minister Abba Eban
told Parliament that there had
not been any United States pres-
sure on Israel to reverse a re-
fusal to meet a request from
South Viet Nam for experts.
Eban said that the Saigon regime
had made the request for agricul-
tural and other experts several
months ago with United States
government blessing.
In reply to a question, Eban also
said that Israel was ready in
principle to establish diplomatic
relations with any government ask-
ing for such ties. A foreign mini-
stry spokesman said later that
Eban had expressed only the
juridical aspect of the question and
that a prior government statement
that Israel felt that establishment
of relations with South Viet Nam
was currently inopportune.

TEL AVIV (JTA)—The execu-
tive board of Tel Aviv University

institution's 1966-67 budget by near-
ly 4,000,000 Is r a e l i pounds
($1,333,000), below original esti-
mates, fixing the fiscal year's
budget at 20,000,000 pounds ($6, an
budget at 20,000,000 pounds
($6,667,000).
Hit hardest under the revised
budget will be new appointments
to the university's faculty. The
number of new students to be ad-
mitted will also be reduced.
The budget cut came in the wake
of the governments general tighten-
ing of all expenditures. That policy
will, among other things, also re-
duce the subsidies expected to be
the government to all institutions
of higher learning in Israel.
