The proposal was one of a series urged by Prof. Carlo Schmid, -vice-president of the Bundestag, on the government to demonstrate the determination to wipe out all elements of anti- Seniltism and neoJ^Tazlsm in West Germany. tN PRESENTINQ the White Paper, Gerhard Schroeder, Minis¬ ter of the Interior, said that while the police investlgratlona at local and federal levels had not verified susplclins that the anti-Semitic Incideaits were organized, "there Is e-vldence to show that the Com. munists exploited them to dis¬ credit tlie Federal Republic and to create discord between the partners of the Western Alliance." He announced the Intention ot the government to create a com¬ mission of educators, scientists and leaders In public life to study means of impro'vtag political edu¬ cation in West Germany. He also said the government would aet against rightist groups by all means at its disposal. PfOf. Schmid asserted that antl- Semltlsm should not be viewed as an Isolated problem and that "wherever a Jew Is Insulted, the principles of democracy are at¬ tacked." DECLARING THAT such ac¬ tions should be considered treason against the state, he also listed as a step the government should take the removal of all persons from office who had been affiliated with the Nazis. The Wiilte Paper, said direct ties between vandals and politi¬ cal groups were found only in eight cases, seven of them involv¬ ing the German Relchs party. Among those arrested, the re¬ port said, 130 were cUldren under 20, 49 were persons under 30, 38 were under BO, 11 under 60 and six were 60 years old and older. The report said 63 offenders have received fines, detention, or jail terms ranging from two to 17 montlis.

The climax of the hearing came when Rep, Leonard Farbstein,- New York Democrat, a member of the committee, told Herter tliat he was seriously considering an amendment to the Mutual Secur¬ ity Act to bar American aid to any nation denying tbe principle of freedom of the seas. Rep. Farbstein told Herter that, iii view of the massive American aid now being given tbe United Arab Republic, the United States liad a right to ask the UAR about its Suez Canal lestricUons against Israel, without depending entirely on United Nations-faction. Herter replied that tbe Ameri¬ can Ambassador In Oairo bad made representations to Presi¬ dent Nasser's regime, Oiat the United States was supporting ef¬ forts of UN Secretary CJeneral Hammarskjold, and that Herter had expressed tiimseU on the matter at the United Nations. IKE REJECTS IDEA OF UNITED STATES ARMS TO ISRAEL WASHINGTON (JTA) — Presi dent Elsenhower rejected, the Idea of United States arms sales to Israel even though he acknowl¬ edged that Soviet-bloc arms were arriving In some Arab states. He also indicated dlsnilssal of the Idea of a possible American-Israel mutual security pact Eisenhower told his press con¬ ference that the United States, as a matter of policy, has never served as a major supplier of arms to Israel and does not in¬ tend to assume such a role now for Israel or any other country in that area., ACKNOWLEDGING that cer¬ tain Arab states were receiving (Communist arms, Eisenhower pointed out that Israel waa being supplied with military egulpitient by France and Great Britain. Eiseaihower said he should be "frank" in stating that the United States was sending enough arms to enough nations and tliat he would let somebody else carry that responsibility regarding Is¬ rael. He said he was unfamiliar with a recent suggestion by Senator Jacob K. Javits, New York Re¬ publican, that a mutual security treaty be negotiated to link Amer¬ ica with Israel in defense. He added, however, titat he had heard the same idea discussed many times before. HB INDIOATEa} dismissal of such a defense treaty, stating he told the United NaUons the United States would deal with tbe Arab states and Israel as a unit for economic development assistance if the Arabs and Israel coulfi agree. If such agreement could be reached, the United States still stands ready to support and co¬ ordinate a policy of regional de¬ velopment assistance, be declared. Commenting on the current sta.- tus of the Suez CSanal impasse tn- vol'vlng Israel and tbe United Asab Republic, Elsenhower re¬ called his 1957 statement that if operation of the canal was unfair, this should cause action by the United Nations. He said he believed that the Suez Canal matter had been han¬ dled by the United Nations. His reference waa presumed to be to the recent efforts of United Na¬ tions Seoretary Oeneral Dag Ham¬ marskjold to resolve Israel-UAR differences over the canal.

COUNCIL CALLS FOR BROAD STUDY ON RACIAL PREJUDICE NEW YORK, (JTA) — A broad program o f investigation, r e- search, conferences, and inter¬ group education in pulific, private and parochial schools, to deal with the underlying causes of re¬ ligious and racial prejudice in America, was called for by the National Cpmmunity Relations Advisory Counoil in a report is¬ sued recently. The report incorporates a re¬ view and evaluation of the rash of antl-Semltlc Incidents that oc curred In the United States dur¬ ing the month of January. The evaluation concludes that there is no cause for alarm in the Ameri¬ can Jewish community, since there Is no evidence of an antl- Semltlc plot or conspiracy In the United States and, In reacting to the Incidents, Americans have given a fresh demonstration of their practically universal ab¬ horrence of anti-Semitism. THBBB IS however, evidence of an undercurrent of latent anti- Semitism, the report finds, and an effective concerted attack on the underlying social causes of anti-Semitism and other forms of hatred is required to assure a- gainst Suture outbreaks. In tills connection, the report puts for¬ ward the following proposals: 1. That the US. Civil Bights C:!ommission or another federal agency specially created for that purpose systematically and con¬ tinually gather information about anti-Semitic and other hate mani¬ festations and that municipal and state commissions, undertake similar programs. 2. That the U^S. support a pend¬ ing UJf. resolution calling for a worldwide survey of such mani¬ festations. 8. That human relations com¬ missions call community-wide conferencea "under the broadest community auspices" to evaluate local situations and project co¬ ordinated programs of action. 4. TELAT INTEBQBOUP eduoa¬ tion programs be expanded. In. (OontlBnea •> pace t) look utterly futile. Agreeing with Uoyd that there was deterltJration Jn the Middle East SituaUon, ^e UN offioiai noted carefully that "actions here are possible in the Security Coun¬ cil, in the General Assembly, and by the Secretary Oeneral." ASSERTING that he had not been idle, he observed that there lyere actions "that other organs of the. United Natione can take and I cannot take." He added that "there Is a certain tendency in some quarters to forget these, differences and expect from the Secretary (Senerai actiona that be cannot perform." In effect admitting he had done all that he could, he asserted tbat "I see no other way to help the situation except for the. Security Council to strengthen the UN and for the UN to stick to ita gruns." Since Iioth the United States and Britain are permanent mem¬ bers of the powerful Seouxlt}'- C^unoil, tills statement was promptly accepted as a request by Mr. Hammarskjold to the two powers to get busy in the Security CJouncii with some activities of their own to deal with tho situa¬ tion. He dealt more generally N^th questions about Nasser's cfiCM- lenge to Premier Kassem of Iraq to send armies to support Syria and the "condemnation" by the Israel-Syrian Mixed Armistice Commission of Israel's action in the Tiberias demilitarized zone. He said all the facts were not yet tn on the situation in the zone. NAVY DROPS CUUSE WHICH HELPED ARAB BOYCOTT OF ISRAEL WASHINGTON (JTA) — Tho VB. Na-vy has decided to cancel a contract clause in its shipping contracts which has been widely criticized aa abetting the Arab boycott of Israel. The clause was part of a con¬ tract of the Military Sea Trans¬ port Service, wiiich acts as char¬ terer for the Navy. It contained options to protect Navy cargoes carried by shippers if the Arabs refused to accommodate their ships for having done business with Israel. Th% effect of the clause was to foreclose American shippers who have done business with Israel from bidding on the lucrative Navy transport cargo cantraota. Disclosure last Jan. 21 that the clauses had been in effect tor nearly two years touched off widespread protesta The Navy declared in a state¬ ment to Congress, that "the clause was adopted with no intention to give support to any politi(»l boycott" but rather on the basis that "it was deemed advantageous to both the government and ship¬ owners." However, the statement added, the Military Sea Transport Serv. ice "can accomplish its mission without using the clause. Inas¬ much OS it has been mistakenly constructed aa pro'ridipg aotte solace to the Araib boycott Im¬ posed on persona trading with Israel, the Navy will dlMontiikue ' ita use."
