MONTEVIDEO, (JTA) - AL
though armistice agreements
have been achieved by Israel
with all the Arab countries, final
peace has not been obtained as
yet and, therefore, the war is not
yet over, Col. David Shaltiel, In
spector General of the Israeli
Army, emphasized at a public
meeting here attended by more
than 5000 people.
Col. Shaltiel, now in this coun-
try on a goodwill mission, is the
official guest of the Uruguayan
military authorities. In the course
of his address, he pointed out that
Israel will not forget the political
aid it received in the United Ma
tons from the Soviet delegation,
but will also remember the fact
that Jewish immigration to Israel
is now being hampered in Soviet
satellite countries.
