Rabbis Hail Action
Of Church Council
NEW YORK (JTA)—The re
cent declaration of the World
Council of Churches Ip Candia,
Crete, which called for the poli-
ticf^independence and territorial
integrity' of all nations in the
Middle East, was hailed by the
New York Board of Rabbis. The
board comprises 900 Orthodox,
Conservative and Reform rabbis.
Rabbi Edward T. Sandrow,
bbard president, said the de
claration was a “sign of courage
on the part of the Christian
clergy,” since it advocated rec
ognition of Israel by the Arab
states "in spite of the fact that
in many Arab states Christians
are a minority and their religious
leaders are subject to heavy pres
sure by the governments which
are hostile to Israel.”
During the recently-concluded
conference of world church lead
ers of Protestant and Orthodox
faiths, Arab Christian delegates
had pressed for a strong anti-
Israel statement. The statement
that was finally approved criti
cized Israel’s takeover of terri
tories during the Six-Day War,
but firmly advocated Israel’s
right to exist—along with that
of all other Middle Eastern na
tions. The Council also called for
an international agreement on
access to the holy places in
Jerusalem.
Neo-Nazis Refused
Use of City Halls
BONN (JTA) — Two West

tional Democratic Party (NPD).

already rented the town hall for
its congress, scheduled for No
vember, the mayor announced he
will do all in his power to pre
vent the parley from taking
place in the city. At Wolfsburg,
the City Council passed a resolu
tion forbidding the lease of its
City Hall for an NPD rally.

With Inciting Arson
LONDON (JTA)— Mrs. Fran
co i*e Jordan, wife of Fascist
leader Colin Jordan, head of the
British National Socialist Party,
was ordered held without bail
by a magistrate here after the
was arraigned on charges of in
citing members to set fire to a
synagogue. The charges included
also one alleging that, under her
incitement, tsome members had
set fire to e synagogue in Stan
hope, Middlesex.
Mrs. Jordan asked Magistrate
W. H. Hughes to release her on
bail. Police Inspector Albert
Wickstead opposed that applica
tion. He told the court that four
weeks were needed to complete
the investigation of the activities
of Mrs. Jordan “who had fled the
country and returned only re
cently.” He voiced fear that, if
she were released, witnesses m
the case, who had already been
threatened, would face further
harassments. He also said he
feared Mrs. Jordan would again
try to escape from the country,
as she did in 1966.
Johnson Says Iran
Sets an Example
WASHINGTON (JTA)—Pres
ident Johnson has declared here
that the Middle East, recovering
now from “the shock” of the
June war between the Arab
states and Israel, looks toward
Iran as an example that “beckons
to all.”
Mr. Johnson made that obser
vation this week in a toast at a
White House dinner honoring
Iran’s Shah Mohammed Riza
Pahlevi, who arrived here for
two days of consultations, in
which the peace and security of
the Middle East play a major
role. Referring to the June war,
the President told the Shah:
“That shock should not and
must not obscure the vision of
what they can do to solve their
problems constructively, peace
fully—working with their neigh
bors.”

SYDNEY (JTA)— The Jewish
Board of Deputies has complain
ed publicly against anti-Semitic
manifestations that have devel

quest of Prime Minister Levi

costs creating high production

‘Monitor’:

Reasonable *Policy by Arabs
NEW YORK (JTA)—"Moscow
is waiting patiently for the Arab
nations to unite behind a ‘reaeon-
able’ rather than ‘extremist' pol
icy towards Israel,” the Christian
Science Monitor reported from
Moscow. The report said that
Western diplomats in the Soviet
capital believe that “reasonable”
means some acknowledgment by
the Arabs that they are not out
to annihilate Israel.
“Moscow could then oall on
Washington to use its influence
to obtain Israeli withdrawal
from occupied Arab territories,
thus opening the way to a ne
gotiated settlement of the Arab-
Israeli war,” the report states. It
adds that “Moscow has brought
no overt pressure on the Arabs
toward taking the first step in
this hoped-for-prooess. But the
Soviet press has made it abund
antly clear in the past few weeks
that if the liquidation of Israel
remains an Arab goal, the Krem
lin will have nothing to do with
it”

Dayan Pays Visit
To Occupied Area
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Gen.
Moshe Dayan, Israel’s Defense
Minister, has visited Nablus in
the occupied west bank to see at
first hand the measures Israeli
occup ation authorities were
taking to restore conditions to
normal.
The Nablus mayor and city
council resigned as a protest
against the Israeli occupation but
the mayor was persuaded to res
cind his resignation. Nablus
teachers, who had rejected Israeli
salaries to continue teaching, also
changed their minds tod agreed
to report for teaching duties on
September 1, when schools will
open throughout Israel and the
occupied areas.
Meanwhile, Israeli officials re
ported that Israel plans to sell
to the United States Army in
Europe some of its farm sur
pluses, including melons and
grapes from the occupied west
bank section. Prior to the June
war and Israeli occupation, west
bank farmers had been selling
fruits and vegetables to Arab
countries. In recent weeks, some
of the produce has been ferried
across the Jordan River into Jor
dan. The officials said that the
continuation of such farm ex
ports to the U. S. Army would
depend on Israel’s ability to meet
timetables and quality standards
of the U. S. Army.

“From these and other com
ments,” the Christian Science

sion that the Kremlin desires
normalization of the Middle East
situation and rejects the extrem

Syria. Soviet goals in the Middle
