New Jerusalem UTAt—The Israel Army c h a p l a i n c y has announced that all the Israeli soldiers killed in the Six-Day War have been identified, freeing the widows of men previously reported missing but whose bodies had not been identified, of the (status of .'"agunah." Under Jewish religious law, the wife of a missing person is not permitted to remarry. The religious laws governing marriage and divorce are the laws of Israel and, without the chaplaincy ruling today, these widows would not have been allowed ever to remarry.
Paris fJTA) — P r e s i d e n t Charles DeGaulle launched his most bitter attack against Israel which he called a "war-like state determined to expand on any pretext" and declared that the only solution of the Middle East problem must be one based on the evacuation of Israel "from territories taken by force" and agreed to by the big powers—United States, Russia, France and Britain. The French President spoke before more than 1,000 newsmen, diplomats and members of his government at the latest of his infrequent press conferences. He said that France was ready to play its part, along with the other big powers, in achieving a Middle East settlement which, in addition to an Israeli withdrawal, should be based on an "end to belligerency
Pa. Jurist Calls for U.S. Funds for Israel Philadelphia fJTA)—The Chief Justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court called for a termination of U.S. foreign aid to Communist and pro-Communist nations, and diversion of part of the funds to Israel "where the cost of their war for survival and freedom must be tremendous.' Judge John C. Bell, Jr. issued his call in a statement in which he castigated continued aid to nations that "insult our country, attack our embassies, burn our flag and aid our enemies." On the other hand, he noted, "from the days of Abaham, Moses and Solomon, the Israelites, in their religious tenets and beliefs, have inspired our Western World. Moreover, in recent years, they have established an oasis of democracy in the Middle East. How ridiculous of Washington to say, concerning the Mideast war that we are neutral in .thought, word and deed."
and the recognition of each state by all other states." Such a settlement, bolstered by "decisions of the United Nations, with the presence nnd the warrant of their forces, would make it possible to define the boundaries, the conditions of life and security of both sides, the fate of the refugees and of minorities and the rules of free navigation for all in the Gulf of Aqaba and tlu Suez Canal," DeGaulle said. Ito added that France favors a'.spociitl status for Jerusalem. He stressed that agreement by the big powers was necessary. If this was achieved, tha agreement of the United Nations would automatically follow, ha said.
