Security Council Assailed by Eban for Measure
Demanding Israel Rescind Jerusalem Unity

(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News

JERUSALEM — A resolution
voted 13-0 by the Security Council
Tuesday calling upon Israel to
rescind the unification of Jeru-
salem was greeted with bitterness
and disappointment here Wednes-
day. Foreign Minister Abba Eban
told a press conference that the
resolution notwithstanding, Israel
will continue its policy of main-
taining a united Jerusalem and
will stand by its pledge to grant
each religious group free access
to the places it considers holy, "a
promise no previous government
of Jerusalem has ever made," Eban
said.
He assailed the Security Council
document as "a dark chapter in
the moral history of the inter-
national organization." E b an
pointed out that the council "has
not once censured aggression
against the population of the city,
against the cultural and religious
institutions in it and against the
savage tearing away of Jews from
the place they consider holiest —
the Western Wall."
The Security Council "comes
alive" to Jerusalem "only when
the city has become unified and
is on the way • to becoming inte-
grated and when for the first time
in 20 years, the Jewish people have
access to their holy places," he
said.
But, Eban declared, Israel's
policy regarding the peace mis-
sion of United Nations envoy
Gunnar V. Jarring, established
by the Security Council's Nov.
22, 1967, resolution remailtsf
unchanged, and Israel will con-
tinue to support Dr. Jarring's ef-
forts to end the Middle East
conflict. He said this reaffirma-
tion of support was the outcome
of Tuesday's cabinet meeting.
The Security Council resolution,
introduced by Pakistan and Sene-
gal, was approved in the face of
very sharp disagreements voiced
by U.S. Ambassador Arthur J.
Goldberg and Canadian Ambas-
sador George Ignatieff.
Canada and the U.S. abstained in
the final voting.
The council called upon Israel
to "desist forthwith from taking
any further action which tends to
change the status of Jerusalem."
The secretary-general was asked
to report to the Security Council
on the implementation of the reso-
lution.

Goldberg voiced an impassioned
plea for explicit re-endorsement
of Jarring's Middle East peace
mission and warned that the reso-
lution before the body would en-
danger the success of the Jarring
mission. The U.S., said Goldberg,
deplores any unilateral actions re-
garding the status for Jerusalem,
but he argued that "a peaceful
settlement of the Middle East issue
encompasses all aspects of the
situation, including Jerusalem."
The resolution before the body,
he said, "would isolate the ques-
tion of Jerusalem." He insisted
that the Security Council's reso-
lution of Nov. 22, 1967, which
resulted in the Jarring mission,
"remain the touchstone" of the
entire situation. The aim of the
council, Goldberg insisted, must
be explicitly to support the Jar-
ring mission, to call "upon all
parties" to cooperate with Jar-
ring and thereby help the estab-
lishment in the Middle East of
a "permanent, just and lasting
peace."
Ignatieff, informing the council
that his delegation would abstain,
warned that adoption of the draft
means that the council is on the
road toward voting sanctions." He
recalled that in Monday's brief
debate Yakov A. Malik, chief rep-
resentative of the Soviet Union,
had virtually threatened the adop-
tion of sanctions against Israel.
Malik told the council that while
the measure was acceptable to the
Soviet Union, it should have been
strengthened "against the illegal
and expansiOnist aims of Israel
against the Arab parts of Jeru-
salem." He reiterated Soviet

charges of Israeli "aggression and
expansionism." He said- that the
Kremlin stands ready to support
action against Israel, and declared
that Israel was obstructing the
Jarring mission. Malik voiced "the
determination of the Soviet Union
to see to it that the Security Coun-
cil force Israel to withdraw its
troops from the occupied terri-
tories."
Israel's ambassador, Y o s e f
Tekoah, told the council that the
resolution "does not contribute to
the attainment of peace but, on
the contrary, deepens further the
abyss of Arab belligerence." Te-
koah criticized the council sharply
for its failure to take any action
whatever in the defense of Israel
during most of the last 20 years.

French Jewish Students
Raise Own Ruckus'at
Central Organization HQ

PARIS (JTA) — The general
strike that has paralyzed France
spread to the offices of the French
Jewish Consistory, central organi-
zation of the Jewish community
and the Fonds Social Juif Unifie,
central fund-raising organization
of French Jewry.
About 100 Jewish students oc-
cupied the consistory building and
declared that they would not leave
the premises until their demands
for basic reforms and a voice in
consistory policies were granted.
The staff of the Fonds Social,
meanwhile, has joined the strike.
Because of the strike, the ex-
position "Israel Through the Ages"
has been compelled to close its
doors for a few days. The unrest
also has caused cancellation of
a meeting of the World Jewish
Congress which was to take up
the Jewish situation in Poland.
(El Al, Israel Airlines announced
in Tel Aviv that it had suspended
flights to Paris because of the
general strike that had shut down
airports. Passengers for Paris
would be landed in Brussels and
transported to their destination by
bus, the airline said).
