(From the files of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency)

film.
The last Nazi provincial leader, Education Minister M. Franzen
of Brunswick, resigned after admitting perjury in connection with
anti-Jewish riots.
Russian translations of Sholom Aleichem sold half a million
copies in the USSR during 1925-30.
After the beating of a Jewish student, "investigation by the school
authorities revealed that the anti-Semitic pupils were directed from
the outside by elements hostile to the Soviet government."
Jewish-born Soviet atheists urged Jews to work on Rosh Hashanah

10 Years Ago This Week: 1961

World Bank Grants S30 Million Loan
WASHINGTON (JTA) —The

000, 20-year loan to Israel for high-
way building programs.

recently announced five-year pro-

gram of highway expansion esti-
mated to cost $91,300,000. The
bank's loan will be for the con-
struction and improvement of 75
miles of Israel's 5,642-mile-long
road netwook.
The funds will be used for the
Ayalon Expressway in Tel Aviv;
the Danot-Lod-Ramleh Highway;
three sections of the four-lane di-
vided highway in the Beit Dagan,
Ramleh and Rishon LeZion areas;
and for four interchanges on the
Tel Aviv-Haifa route.
The bank spokesman said most
of the roads were concentrated
"in and around the capital, Tel
Aviv." The United States, which
supplies about 40 per cent of the
bank's operating capital, has been
careful to avoid controversial proj-
ects or to recognize Israeli changes
in the status of Jerusalem.

Israeli authorities have promised
to rebuild the homes of two East
Jerusalem Arabs which were de-
molished by sappers recently be-
cause the owners were suspected
of terrorist acts. The home own-
ers were exonerated when cap-
tured terroists confessed to the
acts. The authoities also promised
to help the men of the two fami-
lies find jobs.
The Gaza incidents continued
Sunday when nine pupils, two
teachers and a janitor were in-
jured after a hand grenade ex-
ploded in the Falastin School yard
in Gaza. The grenade was aimed
at an Israeli patrol guarding the
school during matriculation ex-
aminations. There were no Israeli
casualties. An Arab terrorist
dressed in women's clothes was
*killed in the Gaza Strip Friday as
he threw a grenade at an Israeli
patrol.
Israel lodged two more com-
plaints with the United Nations

Canal zone. Israel claimed the
cease fire was violated each day
by a pair of Sukhoi-7 fighter
bombers. On Tuesday they were .
