Atrocities Against Israeli
POWs Are Charged
Continued from Page 1
Israeli Ambassador Yosef
Tekoah disclosed at the rally
that, in addition to an earlier
report that Syrians had mur-
dered Israeli prisoners, there
was "information of another
place where Israeli soldiers
were shot after having been
taken prisoner. In one case, an
i—nrisoned and wounded Is-
'. officer, who had difficul-
t,, alking, was shot to death."
Tekoah also said that Egypt
and Syria displayed Israeli
prisoners on television and
those prisoners were "forced
to be photographed in humil-
iating positions." He charged
Egypt and Syria with flag-
rant violations of the Geneva
Convention on treatment of
war prisoners by refusing to
transmit lists of prisoners
they held.
Sen. Jacob Javits (R.N.Y.)
told the rally that where the
United Nations rushed to en-
force a cease fire, when the
Arab armies were near col-
lapse, it did not show concern
over enforcement of the
Geneva Convention.

Two Nobel Prize winners
and a dozen other American
scientists at the National In-
stitutes of Health went to the
headquarters of the Ameri-
can Red Cross Monday to
elicit its support for an ex-
change of prisoners of the
Arab-Israeli war. In the
group were Christian Anfin-
sen, who last year became a
Nobel Laureate for his dis-
covery of protein structures,
Marshall Nirenberg, who was
honored in 1968 for his genetic
code findings, and DeWitt
Stetten, director of the Gen-
eral Medical Sciences at
NIH. Jack Cohen, a biophy-
sicist who arranged the visit,
said that its purpose was to
ask the American Red Cross
to exercise its influence
through the International Red
Cross and other appropriate
agencies to persuade Egypt
and Syria "to abide by the
accepted norms of civilized
conduct in warfare."
