Two Arab-lsrael
Issues Included
On UN Agenda
UNITED NATIONS, N Y.
(JTA)—Two items affecting Is-
rael-Arab relations are on the
provisional agenda of the next
session of the General Assembly,
scheduled to open September 17.
The agenda was made public here
this week.
One of the items concerns the
maintenance of the United Na
tions Emergency Force, which
guards the Gaza Strip border and
the freedom of Israeli shipping
on the Gulf of Akaba. The other
concerns a review of the activities
of the United Nations Relief and
Works Agency for Palestine Ref
ugees.
In addition, there are several
items on the agenda of general
interest to Jews the world over.
Most of these are in the field of
human rights. They include res
olutions forwarded to the Assem
bly by the recent session of the
Economic and Social Council,
held at Geneva. One of the draft
calls for the elimination of all
racial discrimination, another
proposes elimination of all re
ligious discrimination.
A third ECOSOC report, deal
ing with the right of every per
son to leave his own country and
return thereto, is also among the
documents to be placed before the
Assembly. The latter report
touches upon the situation of the
Jews in the Soviet Union, who
are forbidden to emigrate. How
ever, the report does not mention
the USSR specifically.

South Africa
OIIC Reveals
Problems
JOHANNESBURG, (JTA) —
Intermarriage between Jews and
non-Jews in South Africa is on
the increase “to an appreciable
degree,” the Federation of Syna
gogues of the Transvaal and the
Orange Free State declared in
its annual report here today.
The report has been readied for
submission to the third national
Conference of Orthodox Hebrew
Congregations, to be convened
here next month.
According to the report, inter
marriage in South Africa “is as
suming disquieting proportions.”
The report also noted that there
is a shortage in this country
of rabbis and other Jewish re
ligious functionaries, and urged
expansion of training for such
posts by local Jewish institu
tions. Still another section of
the report criticized Reform
Judaism, declaring that the Re
form movement is “the nega
tion of everything Orthodox
Jews stand for,” and stating
there can be no rapprochement
between Jewish Jewish Ortho
doxy and Reform Judaism.
In regard to general South
African affairs, the report
pledged support to the Govern
ment. Stating that “our country
is beset by innumerable prob
lems, and has become the target
of violent attacks from the out
side,” the Federation pledged
“unwavering loyalty” to South
Africa. The Federation recorded
its gratitude to the Government
“for ever-ready assistance and
cooperation from its many de
partments."
