Boston Jews to Get
Housing for Elderly

BOSTON (JTA) — The Boston
City Council has approved the sale
of nine acres of city-owned land to
the Jewish Community Housing for
the Elderly for a 240-apartment
project for the elderly.
Jewish Community Housing for
the Elderly is sponsored by the
Combined Jewish Philanthropies of
Boston.
Benjamin Ulin, president of
Housing for the Elderly, said the
project will include studio-apart-
ment and one-bedroom units, plus
common dining room facilities, a
recreation room, crafts room, li-
brary, meeting rooms and facilities
for emergency medical treatment.
Some 120 additional units are
planned for later addition.
The total project is expected to
cost $4,500.000 with financing ten-
tatively assured through the fed-
eral Community Facilities Admin-
istration.
The units are to be built on a
non-profit basis with non-sectarian
admission, with priority for Boston
residents.
The price of the nine acres was
given as $175,000. Sale of city-
owned land requires two votes of
approval. The city council is ex-
pected to consider a second vote
next week.

Histadrut-Mapai Leader Frymer
Sees Rebirth of Youths' Idealistic
Attitudes Both Here and in Israel

Confidence in an upward trend
in the idealitic approaches of Jew-
ish youth both here and in Israel
was expressed by a distinguished
leader of the labor Zionist move-
ment on the occasion of a brief
visit in Detroit in behalf of His-
tadrut and the developing labor
Zionist activities.

tor of Histadrut in Israel, member

Commenting on the attitude of
Israel's youth, Frymer said that

and the Zionist movement now has
a new role to perform," he stated.
He said he foresaw the labor Zion-
ist idea serving as an alternative
for objectives youth seems difficult
to attain and he expressed the view
that Zionism will fill a gap that
has been created by conditions that
have arisen in recent years.
Having utilized his current visit
in Detroit for conferences with
young people in Histadrut and la-
bor Zionism, Frymer, said he was
delighted with the type of question
now being asked, with the new
concerns, with the mature ap-
proach to the problems involving
the Jewish people and Israel. "The
inheritors of our cause and our
ideals are emerging in a new spirit
of constructive dedication," he
stated.

the aftermath of the June Six-

Jewish people.

Reading the diaries of the sol-
diers on the front lines in the last
war, including those that were -
written by young people who lost
their lives in the war, Frymer
said there is a revelation of an
awareness of Jewish responsibili-
ties, that the war was viewed not
merely as a defensive one for Is-
rael but for the entire Jewish peo-
ple.
Frymer also sees a signifcant
reconciliation between the religious
and non-religious elements. He
said the youth in Israel is taking a
deep interest in government, that
there are new poltical attitudes.
that they are rising to the forefront
in poliiical parties' activities. "In
Mapai we see a desire of young
people to attain key positions, and
this is both a healthy and legiti-
mate demonstration," he said.

Jordanian Charge
of Persecution
Denied by Israel

UNITED NATIONS (JTA)—Is-
rael denied Jordanian allegations
that it forced members of the Be-
douin tribe off Nuwaseirat to cross
to the East Bank of the River Jor-
dan.
In a letter to Secretary-General
Thant, Ambassador Shabtai Rosen-1
ne. Israel's acting permanent rep-
resentative here, termed these al-
Ilgations "false."
This tribe, the letter said, was
located on the West Bank, near the
Jordan River, in the Jericho area,
where there have been frequent il-
legal infiltrations across the river,
and terrorist activities by persons
penetrating from Jordan territory
on the East Bank.
For security reasons it became
necessary to proclaim the area re-
stricted, Dr. Rosenne stated. In
their desire to alleviate unneces-
sary suffering, he said, the Israeli
authorities approached the chief of
the tribe and proposed an agreed
relocation elsewhere. A new site
for the encampment was agreed up-
on while maintaining access to the
former grazing grounds.
At the same time, approximately
150 members of the tribe voluntar-
ily chose to cross to the East Bank,
and written declarations of this wil-
lingness were signed by these per-
sons at the Allenby Bridge.
The Bedouins who crossed to the
East Bank were accepted without
any reservations by the Jordanian
authorities who awaited them a
few yards away. Dr. Rosenne
stated the crossing was openly and
freely conducted, and there was no
coercion whatever,
