Olubs Confer on Ecumenical Council New York (JTA)—Leaders of major national and international Jewish organizations issued a joint "Statement to the Jewish Community" this week expressing the hope that the Ecumenical Council, now in session in Rome, would act to "contribute to the! effective elimination of anti-Semitism and all sources of bigotry and prejudice" for a 'better understanding among all peoples." The joint statement resulted from a series of consultations among the Jewish leaders,.who analyzed the debate in the Ecumenical Council at the Vatican on proposals for a declaration on relations between the Catholic Church and the Jewish people. During the Vatican debate, many of the 2,500 pi elates attending the session, led by a group of American cardinals and bishops, strongly urged a draft which would absolve all Jews, past and present, of the charge deicitie; would condemn anti-Semitism: and eliminate a statement seeking conversion of Jews to Christianity. The Council is expected to act before the end of October on the question. "A concern with the common destiny of all men is deeply rooted in our spiritual heritage," the j o i n t statement declared. "We therefore note with satisfaction the development of increasingly harmonious relationships among the g r e a t faiths that have engendered common positions and actopms on vital humanitarian issues." The statement a d d e d that, while "the ever increasing contact between peoples in the modern world has created new dimensions in h u m a n relations which Jews have welcomed and in which they have fully participated," the Jew now, no less than in the past" " r c m a i n s steadfast in his historic commitment, determined to preserve his faith and heritage. "It is our hope that '.his Council will further harmonious relationships among the religions of the world in their efforts to seek solutions to the problems of mankind. All men of good will are encouraged by the concern of this Council with the fact that certain teachings of the Church have been used at times as a source of anti-Semitism. It is to be hoped that the final determination of the Council will contribute to the effective elimination of anti-Semitism and all sources of bigotry and prejudice and will lead to better understanding among all peoples." The Jewish organizations participating in the deliberations which led to the joint statement under the chairmanship of Label A. Katz, president of B'nai B'rith were: the American Jewish Committee, American Jewish Congress, B'nai B'rith, Canadian Jewish Congress, Jewish Labor Committee, National Community Relations Advisory Council, Rabbinical A s s e m b l y of America,' Rabbinical Council of America, U n i o n of American Hebrew Congregations, Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America, United Synagogue of America, World Jewish Congress, Central Conference of American Rabbis, and the Jewish War Veterans of the United States. .

Jerusalem UTA)—The anti-Israel resolution adopted at the conference of the socalled nonaligned nations in Cairo was seen here as an Arab propaganda victory but without significant political implications. At the conference, President Nasser of Egypt, heading the 13-nation Arab bloc, won a strong endorsement for the "full restoration of all rights of the Arab people of Palestine to their homeland" and a declaration of The chairman of the Jewish support for thir "struggle for National Fund Project, Mrs. J. liberation from colonialism and Milton Margolin, has announced racism."

Madrid OTAi—A new draft law introduced in the Spanish Piirliament, legalizing the status of non-Cntluilic religions in this country, was hailed here by Max Mazin. president of the Jewish Community of Spain, as a move important not only to Spain but to the Jewish people in this country as well. Mr. Mazin estimated that the Spanish Jews in tlu! country total about 7,(l(li). New York (J'J'Ai—The Spanish (t o ve r ninent jiresented a nienorah. especially designed on orders of the Franco Government, to the Jewish community of New York. Mignei Garcia de Saez, Madrid's commissionergeneral at the Spanish pavilion at the New York World's Fair, gave the ancient symbol, on behalf of the Sophardic community'of Spain, to Rabbi Louis C. Gerstein of New York's Congregation Shearith Israel. The presentation c e r e mony was held at the Spanish Pavilion at the World's Fair, and was attended by a number of other rabbis as well as by other leaders of the Sephardic'community in New York. TEL AVIV (JTA) - Syrian Runners fired on Israeli farm workers east of Lake Tiberias two days in a row forcing Israeli ftjrces in the area to return the lire, so that a tractor driver could take cover. There were no Israeli casualties. The .Syrians began shooting with small arm;; at a tractor cultivatin/; a field regularly fanned by the Israelis in the Haon area. Using artillery, the Syrians set a number of field fires which were put out by a local fire brigade. Children of the Haon and Tel Katzir settlements were sent to shelters for s e v e r a l hours during each incident. The first tractor target was hit by some of the .'(() Syrian shells. An armored Israeli tractor was put into the field, and the Syrians resumed shooting. At this point the fire was returned, so that the driver could get out of range. United Nations observers who visited the scene confirmed that the tractor was on Israeli territory, and found fragments of :jli-millimeter shells. Tel Aviv (JTA)-General Yitzhak Rabin. Israel's Chief of Staff stressed that Israel must continue to build its military strength to deter the Arabs from attacking. Speaking at a regional defense meeting in central Israel, Gen. Rabin cited the recent article in Al Ahram, the Egyptian daily, which said that the Arabs could not attack Israel now because it was too strong. He said that "it is our duty to ensure that such ideas will prevail a m o n g the Arabs," and ndded that it was Israeli military strength which prevented the Arabs from carrying out threats to attack Israef over its Negev irrigation project through the National Water Carrier. Paris UTAi—Egypt was re-. p o r t e d here to be ready to launch a major propaganda offensive in Egypt, with the goal of strengthening Franco-Arab friendship and disrupting the traditionally strong Franco-Israel ties. Egypt plans to open in Paris a Central Bureau of Information to coordinate Arab propaganda activities in .Western Europe. The bureau will issue a daily bulletin based on reports of the "Middle East News Agency," a Cairo propaganda organization. Dr. Adel Aniar, a young university lecturer and diplomat, who will head the operation, and who is already in Paris, has been given unlimited funds and is trying to buy a large block of shares in a Frencfi daily newspaper as a base for anti-Israel propaganda. He has had little success so far. The E g y p t i a n Information Center is busy seeking to organize into one unit the 7,O0D
Arab students attending French universities. "The Association of Arab Students" recently held it* first meeting, which was largely an anti-Israel demonstration. The Egyptian activities followed, the d e c i s i o n of the 13 Aralj League state rulers, at the recent summit meeting in Alexandria, to launch a major propaganda drive against Israel • tit Western capitals. Brussels (JTA) •— All Jewish members of the Socialist Party of Belgium rejected an invitation from their party to run on the Socialist tickeii; in municipal elections in Belgium, in protest against the party's reiiomination of the Mayor of Antwerp. Mayor Lode Crayeback was the center of a widespread controversy last spring, following an incident in an Antwerp cafe in which he insulted two Jews when he had allegedly b e e n drunk. The Mayor later apologized in a public letter to the Jewish community and said ho would not be a candidate for reelection. Despite that statement, the Socialist Party decided to put his name at the head of their list, thus automatically assuring his re-election. The mayor canceled his letter of resignation after the party renominatcd him. Moscow (JTA) —Three Soviet leaders in the field of aviation left here for Israel to attend thu 57th general conference of the International Aeronautical Federation in Telaviv. The delegation included Valdimir Kokkinaki, well-known Soviet test pilot; Stepan Mikoyan, a test pilot and a son of USSR President Anastas Mikoyan; and Alexander Tatyanchenk, a member of the presidium of the Soviet Aviation Federation. Haifa, Israel—First bowling center has been opened here by the U. S. A. Brunswick Corporation. The 16-automatic bowling lanes are located in the Supersol Building, Central Carmel, Haifa. London—The Jordanian Council of Ministers added 50 companies in more than a dozen countries to tne list of firms blacklisted for trading with Israel in line with the Arab boycott program. It was reported here from Amman. Jerusalem—The Cabinet meeting discussed the recent attacks from Syrian positions on Israel's northern b o r d e r settlements. Prime Minister Eslikol stressed that the attacks were directed against Israeli farmers in indisputably Israeli territory.
