For Information
Jakobson, 47, whose mother was
Jewish, is highly regarded as one
of the ablest diplomats in the UN.
Even Arab delegates consider him
to be fair.
The secretary general Is ap-
pointed by the General Assembly
on the recommendation of the
Security Council, and the as-
sembly opens its 26th session in
September.
An American spokesman ex-
pressed high regard for Jakobson,
but the Soviet delegate, Yakov A.
Malik, declined any comment, say-
ing he had not heard of the Jakob-
son candidacy.
The Finnish delegate is known
to have the support of Africans
for his firm position against co-
lonialism. A high-ranking Arab
official recalled that Jakobson had
been chairman of an assembly
committee that debated the fate
of Palestinian Arab refugees, and
Arab members felt his handling of
the topic had been fair.
Denver Hospital Official
to Be Israel Consultant
Israeli Red
Rebuked by
Israeli Arabs
JERUSALEM—Three patients
were lying in a small ward in
one of Israel's government hos-
pitals. Two of them were Israeli
Arabs; the third was a Jew, an
active member of Rakah — the
new Israel Communist party.
The Communist was trying his
hardest to convince the Arabs
bow bad their lot was in Israel;
the Arabs would not be con.
vineed. The other day, when a
two-minute silence was being ob-
served throughout the country
as a mark of identification with
the Jews on trial in Leningrad,
the doctors were making their
daily rounds, and they happened
to be in the room as the sirens
were sounded. They stopped
work and drew up to attention.
The two Arabs sat erect in their
beds, but the Jew remained
lying and drew the sheets over
his head. When the two minutes'
silence was over, the Arabs re-
acted with the laconic: "You
should be ashamed of yourself!"
Assail Wilner, Avneri
for Charging Gaza
Force with Atrocities
JERUSALEM (JTA)—Squabbling
broke out in the Knesset when
Meir Wilner, leader of the pro-
Moscow Rakah Communists, and
Uri Avneri, maverick chairman of
the Haolam Hazeh, the New Force
Movement, charged the Israeli se-
curity forces in the Gaza Strip
with "atrocities" against residents
there.
Wilner demanded that a parlia-
mentary commission of inquiry be
sent to the Strip to investigate.
Avneri claimed that the border
police had been sent to the Strip to
take over security duties precisely
because they were prepared to use
methods the army shrinks from.
He was interrupted by hooting from
all corners of the Knesset that
temporarily stalled the proceed-
ings.
When quiet was restored, In-
terior Minister Yosef Burg of
the National Religious Party took
the floor to declare of the Miner-
Avneri charges: "These things
have never happened. They are
not true and should not have
been said here." He added that
"it is unethical to try and drive a
wedge between different arms
of the defense services."
The allegations of border police
"thuggery" came a few days after
they instituted a get-tough policy
to subdue Arab terrorism.

Its Facility for Export
JERUSALEM—The Fur Export-
ing Co. Ltd. has begun construc-
tion of a new plant in Talpiot, a
south Jerusalem suburb.
The company, jointly owned by
Scharf's Furs Ltd., veteran Jeru-
salem furriers, and foreign invest-
ors, will process pelts and manu-
facture fur coats.
About $200,000 has been invested
in the new facility, with most of
the products, broadtail and mink,
for export. At a later stage, the
line will be expanded to include
the more popular-priced furs.
Captured Terrorist Regrets His.Role
JERUSALEM (JTA) — A cap-
tured Arab terrorist gave a tearful
account on Israeli television of his
recruitment by El Fatah in Leba-
non and his abortive mission to
kidnap an Israeli.
Ali Abed el Biari, 32, who said
he was a house painter by profes-
sion, was one of five guerrillas
rounded up by Israeli forces on
Jan. 2 after they landed on Israel's
northern shore from a motorboat.
The capture of the gang and dis-
closure of their mission led to an
Israeli commando raid on a guer-
rilla base 30 miles up the Lebanese
coast recently.
El Biari said he was recruited
by Abu Yusef, the El Fatah com-
mander of the Sarafand camp in
the Sidon district. "They bought
me for a paltry 100 Lebanese
pounds," he complained.

He said he thought the money
was a gift because his wife was
about to give birth at the time.
But be was then ordered to enlist
in El Fatah, given a uniform and
trained to use a Kalachnikof auto-
matic rifle.
El Biari burst into tears when
he was asked if he wanted to send
greetings to his wife and two
young sons, Hassan and Samir. He
said, "Tell them I am well and that
I have asked the Israeli authori-
ties to have mercy on me and
send me back to them soon."
The prisoner spoke bitterly of
Abu Yusef who, he said, drove
around in a chauffeured limousine
but "to the best of my knowledge,
never participated in any action."
He said the El Fatah base at-
tacked by Israeli commandos op-
erated with the full knowledge of
Lebanese authorities.
