JERUSALEM — Would - be rioters

WARSAW (JTA) — The Polish government has
informed the American Joint Distribution Committee
that it intends to halt JDC operations in Poland at the
end of this year, it was reliably reported here. Polish
authorities did not deny the report. JDC officials
declined comment.
The JDC has been carrying on aid programs for
Polish Jews since the end of World War II. The bene-
ficiaries of the JDC programs include a large number
of aged and infirm survivors of the Nazi holocaust.

Dr. King Repudiates Stand
Taken by Black Separatists

NEW YORK (JTA) — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., head
of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, denounced
black separatism and anti-Semitism Tuesday and repudiated the
anti-Israel position taken by the New Politics Convention in
Chicago last month. The Negro leader said anti-Semitism was
"immoral" and was being used to divide Negro and Jew.
Dr. King's statement came in reply to a letter from the
presidents of organizations affiliated in the National Community
Relations Advisory Council. They had drawn his attention to the
anti-Israel declaration adopted at the Chicago convention at
which Dr. King had been the opening speaker.
In his reply, Dr. King noted that he had left the convention
early and pointed out that the SCLC staff members there had
been "the most vigorous and articulate opponents of the sim-
plistic resolution on the Middle East question."

Arabs for the Zion movie theater bomb incident in Jerusalem Sunday night were sharply
warned Monday by a cabinet minister that such acts would be severely punished.
Israel Galili, minister without portfolio, speaking on the radio Monday night, declared
that "attacking others indiscriminately for their religion or race is not the Jewish way." He
said security authorities were well able to deal with acts of terrorism, although he added he
could not guarantee that such acts could be eliminated entirely.
Galili spoke after the arrest in Jerusalem Monday night of about a dozen Jewish youths
for picking fights with Arabs and smashing the windshields of Arab-owned taxis. One group of
youths was stopped on its way to the Old City shouting insults. They will be brought to trial.
Authorities said the incidents did not take the character of riots and that the police had matters
well in hand.
Intensive investigation of the theater bombing attempt continued, with scores of people
questioned and an undisclosed number detained by police.
An alert police officer; on duty in the theater, heard the ticking of the timing apparatus
and ran outside with it, dropped it in the square
on the bomb, picked up the device

Eye-witnesses told police later that the bomb was placed under a seat in the theater by
two Arab women and an Arab man. According to these reports, the trio stayed in the theater
less than 20 minutes and, on leaving, told an usher in Arabic that they didn't like the film. It was
also reported that several Arab youths from East Jerusalem have been detained by the police.
The policeman who dashed out of the theater with the live bomb is expected to receive a
citation for bravery, as is the police sergeant who directed him to place the bomb under some
trees in an almost deserted area.
The police and army security forces were put on double alert immediately after the
explosion. Hundreds of policemen were recalled to duty and stationed in mufti in public places

Abba [ban Enlightens Detroiters on Status of Refugees,
U N's Inadequacy in M. E. Crisis, Israel's Current Needs

Abba Eban. the unmatched master of the art of
oratory, the brilliant spokesman for his People Israel on
the international arena, played multiple roles during a
brief visit in Detroit last Sunday and Monday. He was
the historian, the interpreter of the Middle East situation,
the analyst who reviewed the historic events during which

a maligned people, threatened with extermination, emerged
the victor over several neighboring enemy nations. He was
the evaluator of human values imbedded in aspirations for
peace and the venom that leads to war.
He spoke three times on Monday — at a breakfast
attended by close to 150 prominent participants in Detroit's
Jewish community affairs, a bit later at a press confer-
ence covered by all the communications media and at
of the Detroit
bitch at Cobo Hall, under sponsorship
of Max
Economic Club. The night before, he was a guest

Eban, Israel's foreign minister, clarified the
involved in the Middle East crisis. He outlined Israel's
aims' and the hope for peace that is attainable when the

"If they (the Arab nations) persist in
refusal to negotiate, we shall persist in re-

permanent amity, area cooperation and peaceful aims.
He made it clear that Israel was not at war with the
Western world and therefore is not discussing peace with
nations not affected by what is happening in that area;
and he was emphatic in indicating that Nasser and his
cohorts had been insisting that they were at war with
Israel while refusing to recognize that under such condi-
tions Israel also is at war with their states—a war imposed
upon Israel by those threatening her destruction. Under
such conditions, Eban now affirms in behalf of his govern-
ment that the old armistice agreements are null and void
and that negotiations henceforth are on the basis of the

At the breakfast session with the Jewish representa-

of Arab growth in population" and the effect it may have
on the "Hebrew cultural ethos." He warned of the danger
of Jews becoming a minority in an enlarged area in which
Arabs are increasing rapidly and he told of the need to
enlarge the Jewish population by means of new immigra-
tion. He pleaded for great voluntary efforts to remove the
