denial that the U. S. Army sanc
tioned bias in the recruiting of
Jewish civilians for government
projects in the Middle East was
forthcoming this week, but the
belated reply contained an ad
mission that at least one Arab
state refused to grant Jews visas.
The denial was contained in
a letter received by the Ameri
can Zionist Council here from
Department Counselor F. Shak-
elfok-d.' It followed a protest
from the AZC against the bar
ring of Jewish workers from em
ployment on projects in Arab
lands. The AZC protest was one
of a series from Jewish groups
following an open admission at
a Washington hearing that the
U S. Army had excluded Jews
from construction jobs in the
Middle East because it might
arouse Arab resentment.
In its protest, the AZC termed
the job bias policy as failing to
“add to the climate of brother
hood and peace” and “aggravat
ing a sensitive political situa
tion.”
The Army spokesman repli
ed, it was learned this week, that
the Department did not sanction
bias in the selection of person
nel for Middle East projects, but
that in the case of Saudi Arabia,
Jewish workers accepted by the
government for assignment were
unable to obtain visas admitting
them to the country.
“It is, of course, possible,"
Shakelford wrote the AZC, “that
the Deputy Chief of Engineers
was of the opinion that the same
or similar difficulties applied to
all Arab countries.”
