Delivering her foreign policy address before the plenary session ' of the General Assembly, Mrs, Meir included tn her offer of peace talks not only the President of the UAR but also King Hus¬ sein of Jordan and the Prime Minister of Lebanon, both of whom had addressed the Assem¬ bly earlier. On behalf of Israel, she also:
1. ENIKJKSED Secretary Gen¬ eral Dag Hammarskjold's actiona in the Congo, which have been at¬ tacked violently here by the Sov¬ iet Union's Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev.
2, Called for "complete disarma¬ ment of Israel and the Arab States under mutual inspection and control."
On the subject of disarmament which is before the Assembly, Mrs, Meir said: "One of the planks in the Israel Government's program Is complete disarmament for Is¬ rael and the Arab states under mutual inspection and control. We are not impressed by lofty speeches on world disarmament and peace by leaders who do not practice at home what they preach abroad. Ours is a troubled area and an underdeveloped one. Neither Israel nor its neighbors can afford an arms race; the needs of the men, women and children of ail our countries cry out against it,"
m CHAJLLENGEVG Nasser and rulers of the Arab lands to meet with Ben-Gurion on Arab-Israel peace, Mrs, Meir said: "We again call most solemnly to the leaders of the Arab states: Let us ait down in a free, not pre-condition¬ ed conference, to diacusa peace. We are convinced that that is the only realistic approach. And when there is peace between us, let us with united strength develop the entire region for the welfare of ail peoples,"
Stressing that Nasser still main- tains, his boycott against larael, and the Suez blockade, she stated: "Since, if the United Arab Repub¬ lic is not prepared to Implement the Security (Council's decisions on the question of shipping In the Suez Canal, then how wiil it base its right, if elected to the Security (Council, to tell others that there must be no war or threat of war and all questions must be resolved by peaceful negotiations, and that Security (Council decisions must be observed,"
MBS. IVIEIB'S reference to the Security Council alluded    to    the
fact that the UAR Is now a can¬ didate for election to (Council membership as successor to the seat on the Council held now by Tunisia.
The Israeli Foreign Minister re¬ ferred in her address also to the Arab refugee problem which has been discussed with bitterness by the Arab leaders In this year's As¬ sembly, Those refugees, she stat¬ ed, "did not go Into strange lands. Why are they not absorbed?" she asked.
Israel, Mrs. Meir' pointed out, has absorbed not only many Jew¬ ish refugees from Europe but also a half-million Jews who had to leave Arab countries. Israel, fur¬ thermore, she pointed out. Is to¬ day housing and finding employ¬ ment tor 240,000 Arabs in Israel.
JWV ASKS CENSURE OF ARAB DIPLOMATS
WASHINGTON (JTA)—Nation¬ al Commander I, L, Feuer of the Jewish War Veterans of the U.S. asked the State Department to censure "the Intrusion of Arab governments into the American election campaign" and to oust offending Arab ambassadors.
Feuer cited Iraq's protest to the State Department against a pro-Israel speech by Sen. John F. Kennedy, Maasaohusetta Demo¬ crat, He urged the "immediate re¬ jection" of the diplomatic note handed to the State Department by Iraq,
Referring to a recent anti-Jew¬ ish apeech by Ambassador Mus¬ tafa Kamel of the United Arab Republic, Feuer said the ambas¬ sador shouid be declared persona non grata to end his intervention in American domestic politics. Tho Arab ambassador told Arab stu¬ dents in this country it waa their "duty" to enter American election activity and propagandize Ameri¬ can voters against Israel and poiiticai candidates like Sen. Ken¬ nedy who support larael.
"\Ve have enough trouble with native agitators Injecting: spurious religious issues into the current campaign without permitting the Arab ambassador in Washington to violate the rules of diplomatic behavior," the JWV commander stated. He suggested an investi¬ gation by the FBI of political agitation by foreigTi Arabs in this country on temporary visas.
