THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, September 22, 1967 - 5 Israel Fights in Parliamentary Union to Block Soviet-Arab Indictments GENEVA (JTA) — The Soviet Union and the Arab states carried their campaign against Israel into the council of the Inter-Parliamen- tary Union here and sought to have that body brand Israel as an aggressor, call for Israel to with- draw from the territories it had occupied and pay reparations to the Arab states which had sought its destruction. Some 200 parliamentarians, rep- resenting the legislative bodies of 60 nations, attended the sessions which opened here Sept. 12. Almost the first order of busi- ness was submission of a Soviet resolution calling for condemnation of Israel. followed by another reso- lution presented by the seven Arab countries which are members of the IPU. A debate on the resolu- tions began immediately and, by adjournament, more than 20 mem- bers had spoken. David Hacohen, chairman of the Knesset foreign affairs and security committee and head of the six-man delegation, vigor- ously replied to the Soviet-Arab onslaught. He told the parliamen- tarians that the Soviet Union had neyer sought to promote peace in the Middle East and had never sought to modify the proclaimed Arab intention to destroy Israel. Ilcj recited a long list of threats by Arab leaders to encompass the destruction of Israel. The Israeli spokesman made a strong bid to the council to reject the two resolutions, just as the United Nations General Assembly had rejected similar resolutions. Ile urged the council to support honorable and direct peace nego- tiations between equals" which he described as a procedure funda- mental to the Charter of the United Nations. Cabinet Agrees on General Television in Near Future to Counteract Arabs JERUSALEM (JTA) — Three hOurs daily of television brodcast- ing in Arabic, and one in ilebrew, will be programed as soon as it is "technically feasible," the Israel Cabinet has decided. The new broadcasts are design- ed to counteract the influence of programs broadcast from the neigh- boring Arab countries and atten- tively watched by Arabs in the Israeli-occupied West Bank terri- tory. The facilities of the semi-inde- pendent Israel educational televi- sion station, funded by the Roths- child Foundation, will be used for the new broadcasts. Minister with- out Portfolio Israel Galili told the Cabinet that negotiations were tak- ing place with the foundation re- garding details of the planned trans- mission. It was stressed that the general programs scheduled would not in- terfere with the educational pro- grams, for which the foundation originally established its subsidy. The question of transmissions on the Sabbath, raised by the minis- try of religion, will be decided at a later date. • Classified Ads Get Quick Results Most Arab Shops in West Bank Open Despite Amman g (Digcl.h Z ertIvrTT ee w Wire JERUSALEM — An attempt in- spired by Amman Radio to or- ganize a strike of Arab merchants in East Jerusalem and the West Bank area to coincide with the opening of the United Nations Gen- eral Assembly: Tuesday was only partially successful. The strike had been urged by the Jordanian propaganda services as a protest against the reunification of Jerusa- lem. Nablus was the only town in which a majority of the Arab shops remained shuttered. In other towns, Arab stores and places of business slowly opened and by 11 a.m. more than two-thirds of the Arab businesses in the West Bank area were open. The East Jerusalem Chamber of Commerce' played an important role in dis- suading Arab shopkeepers from heeding the Amman incitement. Police and army units patrolled the streets of East Jerusalem. One I youth was arrested on a shopkeep- er's complaint that he had threat- ened him. A quantity of leaflets urging the merchants to strike was found by the police.

Some 50 young Arabs are now learning Hebrew twice a week in a course initiated by the Hebrew University Adult Education Cen- ter.
