Reports US
Demands AS
Pact Price

TEL AVN (JTA)-PeretZ
Bernstein, Minister of Com
merce and Industry, charged
that the u. S. was demanding
too many concessions from
Israel as the price of a mu-
tual defense pact. Speaking
before the General Zionist ma
tional council, he said that the
main United States demands
are: a return of the Arab ref
ugees, changes in the borders
of Israel, and reparations for
Arab refugees without any
assurance III a t reparations
for property left in Arab
countries would be paid.
Such demands, the Cabinet
member asserted, cannot even
come into consideration. Eve

Sharett might comment on
Mr.. Bernstein's revelations,
in view of the fact that they

Lashes Out
At Histadrut

VIENNA (JTA) - The Le-

congress of the international
Confederation of Free Trade
Unions broke the calm of a
session by opening an attack
on the Histradrut, Israels la.
Dor federation, and it's repre-
sentative here. His attack was
replied to Immediately by the
Histradrut representative,
Reven Barakat.
The Lebanese delegate ac-
cused Histradrut of maltreat-
ing Arab workers and launch
ed a personal attack on Mr..
Barakat, accusing him of fol
lowing an anti-Arab policy.
The delegate from the Leba-
non also referred to the sta
tus of Arab refugees, saying
that Israel had not only de-
prived them of their homes,
but was inflicting great suf-
ferings on them.
In his reply, Mr.. Barakat
said that Histadrut's policy
from its very beginning, was
to integrate Arab commune
lies and to give them a full
and equal opportunity. That
program, he continued, was
was now almost completely
implemented with the result
tha Israels Arab workers and
farmers had a higher stand
ard of living than that OF
their counterparts in any OF

Danger
Israel Pawn
Big-4 Meet

NEW YORK-W Warning that
"pacification in the Near
East" at the forthcoming Big
Four parley must not be OBJ
tained by any Great Power
agreement at the expense OF
Israel, Rabbi Mordecai klrsh-
blum, president of the Miz-
rachi Organization of Amer
ica, expressed fears that the
conference might result in
Israel becoming another Po-
land at a new Yalta."
Recalling similar confer
ences held during the World
War II period, the MiZrachl
leader said the results OF
those meetings were not such
"as to rule out conclusively
the danger that the choice
will be that of appeasement
of the Arabs as the price OF
stability in the Near East
Rabbi Kirshblum insisted
that "as Jews whose religious
commandments have required
us to have labored for the res
toration of Israel and now re-
quires us as religious Zionist,
to labor with equal fervor Tor
the attainment of security 1or
the Jewish State, we must
face a danger which we per
ceive for Israel in the con-
ference.
Describing the Near East
land the role of the Great
Powers in the dispute be-
tween Israel and the ARAB
states" as one of the consplcu-
Gus examples of a strategic
area "in which the cold war
has been fought with the
weapons of propaganda, sub
version and diplomatic ma.
neuvering," the M Mizra c n
president declared that the
story of that role to date is a
sorry tale of betrayal of those
ideals for which the free
world has poured out so mucf
of its material and moral SUD
