Quiet Diplomacy in M.E. Urged; Israel Earns Rodino Praise
WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Sen. John Sparkman (D.-
Ala.) said with relation to
the Middle East that "we
are now in a period calling
for quiet diplomacy" and
urged sidetracking of all is-
sues until "a suitable an-
swer is found to the ques-
tion of Palestinian
nationalism."
The chairman of the Sen-
ate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee offered his advice in
a review of American for-
eign policy in a Senate
speech. He declared that
this is the time for "pa-
tience, to wait for the right
moment for practical peace
initiatives, and to discour-
'q- e any state in the region
om preemptorily altering
the delicate balance."

American trade issue that is
tied to Soviet emigration !,
policy, Sparkman indicated
he was moving away from
the Jackson-Vanik Amend-
ment although he did not
mention it directly.
"When the trade issue is
revived at some future
date," he said, "we should
. not try to connect it to the
internal practices of the
Soviet Union, however
greatly we may deplore
some of these."
In New York, Rep. Peter
W. Rodino (D.-NJ), chair-
man of the House Judiciary
Committee, cited the
"democratic institutions" in
Israel as an example to the
free world, adding that "it is
from without that Israel is
threatened and we Who have
made our own democratic
experiment a success must
stand firmly with Israel as
it briefly faces a difficult
future."
Rodino made this state-
ment during his address to
some 1,700 persons, includ-
ing leaders from Zionist,
religious and civic organiza-
tions in the metropolitan
area, at the 68th annual
Award Dinner of Bnai Zion
honoring the organization's
president, New York State
Supreme Court Justice
Abraham J. Multer.

Another 4,000 dunams
(1,000 acres) of land belong-

to object as vociferously as
the Arabs, government
sources said.

TEL AVIV (JTA) — The
Cabinet decided that one
way to stop leaks to the
press was to reduce the
number of people attending
its meetings. From now on
only the Premier, his 20
ministers, the Cabinet sec-
retary and. the stenographer
will be in the meeting room.
The Cabinet will be able
to invite someone to attend
the meeting but the person
will stay only for the ques-
tion with which he is con-
cerned.

Jewish Cemetery Vandalized in NY
NEW YORK (JTA) — The
Hebrew Free Burial Asso-
ciation's cemetery on Staten
Island has been vandalized
during the last two week-
ends. Irving Friedman, su-
perintendent of the Mount
Richmond Orthodox Jewish
Cemetery for the Poor, said
that 56 gravestones or pe-
destals were damaged or
overturned last weekend
and 34 the weekend before.
He said he believes the van-
dals were teenagers.
Friedman, 65, who has
been superintendent for the
past 47 years, said not only
his cemetery was vandalized
but also the non-Jewish
cemeteries in the area.

the Congressman warned.
"Arrayed against it are not
only military forces, but
also the political foes of
those who voted in the
United Nations for the reso-
lution that called Zionism a
form of racism." That vote,
he said, "more than any
other action in recent years,
served to undermine the in-
tegrity of the institution
(the United Nations) that
was created to serve the in-
terests of peace and justice
for all people."
Cabinet to OK Land Request
for Galilee Housing Project
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
The Cabinet decided with-
out opposition to authorize
the requisition of 5,000
acres of land in Galilee —
half of it from Arab owners
— for housing projects
aimed at increasing the
Jewish population of the
region.
The decision is expected
to stir serious opposition
among Arab landowners
even though they would be
"handsomely" compensated.
Some Jewish landowners
affected by the decision are
also expected to object.
Housing Minister Avra-
ham Ofer and Shmuel Tole-
dano, the government's ad-
viser on Arab affairs, said
the 5,000 acres was the min-
imum area feasible for the
projected new development.
They recalled that original
plans called for the requisi-
tion of much larger areas
and that the Arab land in
question was presently nei-
ther cultivated nor built
upon.
Government sources
said that compensation
rates would not be based
on the present condition of
the land — described as
"scrubland" — but on its
potential value as housing
sites. They said that
"wherever possible" the
Arab owners would be
compensated with alter-
nate land elsewhere but
not far from their present
holdings. There was no
intention on the govern-
ment's part to evict Arabs
from settled land, the
sources insisted.
The land which the gov-
ernment intends to requisi-
tion is located near Naza-
reth and Illith (Upper
Nazareth) and at Carmiel.
Ofer said the plans called
for the development of Car-
miel from a village of 8,000
to a township with a popula-
tion of 35,000. New housing

Rodino stated that Is-
rael "has been created
from the desert by men
and women who thirsted
and hungered for a land of
their own where they
could be free. They have,
as the Prophets foretold,
made the desert bloom.
But more than that, they
have made hope, and
equality and human dig-
nity bloom as well."
Now, however, "Israel
is being challenged by
those who would destroy it,"
