Clash Is Averted
at Temple Mount
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
The presence of Jerusalem
riot police and the restrain-
ing influence of Moslem eld-
ers prevented a possible vi-
olent clash between Jews
and Arabs on the Temple
Mount Sunday.
A group of right-wing
nationalist Israelis, led by
Herut City Councilman
Gershon -- Solomon and
Rabbi Louis Rabinowitz,
dispersed peacefully after
attempting to hold a prayer
meeting at the Islamic
shrine. Arab youths, some
of them armed with sticks
and stones, also left the area
at. the persuasion of elderly
Moslem worshipper's.
The Teinple Mount, where
Solomon's Temple once
stood and which is now the
site of the Mosque of Omar
and 'El Aksa Mosque, has
become a trouble spot in
East Jerusalem. A local
magistrate ruled in January
that the government's ban
on Je. wish religious rites
there was illegal and since
then several rightist groups
have held prayer services on
the site, sparking Arab riots
in East Jerusalem and in
major West Bank towns.
The government has ap-
pealed the ruling to the Su-
preme Court and it is ex-
pected to be overturned.
Meanwhile, Jerusalem pol-
ice have served notice that
they intend to enforce the
ban.
