CIO Asks Israel Be in M.E. Defense Washington (WNS)—The Congress of Industrial Organizations, at Its executive board meeting here this week, adopted a resolution urging the United States Government "to use its influence to achieve the inclusion of the State of Israel in the free world's Middle Eastern defenses" since inclusion of "the democratic State of Israel would help not only the military and economic' defense arrangements of the area hut would make possible the extension of the demoocracy's bastions within the Middle East as a whole." Declaring It was obvious that the leaders of the Arab states must recognize reality by facing the fact of Israel's existence, tho resolution noted that "American insistence upon Israeli integration into the Middle Kastren defenses will have a decisive influence" strengthening the barricades the free world against Soviet-inspired infiltration of aggression. The Hague (WNS)—Queen Juliana of tlio Netherlands has confided to Chief Rabbi Dr. Samuel Rodriguez Perelra that she Intends studying Hebrew under the tutelage of an experienced Jewish teacher.

Israel Protests Plane Shooting Jerusalem (WNS)—A sharp pro. test against tho "shocking recklessness" of Bulgarian forces In shooting down an Israeli passenger plane that carried fiftyeight persons to death was presented this week at the Bulgarian legation in Tel Aviv by Walter Eytan, director genera) of the Israeli Foreign Ministry, . The note said the Israel /Government "has heard with amazement and horror the Bulgarian Government's:statement.-that Bul-i giirlan security forces opened fire" on the plane since there could have been no difficulty in Identifying the unarmed civil airliner of the Constellation type. Tho "action of the Bulgarian security forces," the note, said, "can bo understood only as deriving from wanton disregard of human life and of the elementary obligations of humanity." The Israel Government demanded "full satisfaction" from the Bulgarian Government for the grave international offense. It also protested against Bulgaria's refusal to refuse entry to an Israeli inquiry commission. Tho El Al plane was on the Vienna-Lydda leg of a flight from London when It was shot down by Bulgarian anti-aircraft fire. Bulgarian sources said the plane had strayed over Bulgarian territory, but Greek border patrol officials ;ald there be no mistake in detecting that plane was a civilian passenger bearing cratt. , News of the tragedy coincided with Tisha B'a observance in Israel and ther-! was deep mourning and sadness through the land apart from consternation over the wan.ton killings. Adding to the tragedy was a report that five of the passengers who perished were Russian Jews who had been permitted to leave for Israel for reunion with relatives. Twelve of the victims were American Jews bound for Israel on vacation and family reunion. .

^ surprising developfi ot ments of the election were the gains made by Herut, .extreme rightists who drew over 13 percent of the total vote and will have a representation of sixteen In the new Knesset,, Mapai, which arew close to thirty-two percent of the vote will have forty seats, In another upset, the General Zionists, who wen; ousted from the govern* ment, coalition shortly before the election, trailed with a percentage of 10.9, a five percent drop which places tho General_ Zionist Party as the third ranking body in the new Knesset with a representation of fourteen. Mizrachi and Hapoe] Hamizrachl received a vote of 9.5, with a representation of 12 deputies; Mapam received 7 percent of the vote,

entitling it to.8 members in the new Parliament; Leachdulh Avoda captured 8 percent with an anticipated representation of 10 in Knesset; Agudah and Poalo Aguda received 5.14 percent, with an e*timated representative of six dcuuties; the Progressives received 4.6 and the Communists 4.91, with each to have five deputies. While Herut leaders were rejoicing over their political victory, the leaders of the General Zionist Party could find no single excuse for the defeat. Dr. Perctz Bernstein, leader of the General Zionists, saiJ the voters were "mistaken in their judgment" and he blamed the rout on the fact that party had been singled out "unrestrained attack" \>y att' political parties. Herut leader Arieh Ben EHezer, on the Other hand ,was jubilant over his party's gains, declaring that the result showed a "voters" revolt and predicting a Mapai decline. Golda Meirson, who appears to have won 6ut In her race as mayor of Tel Aviv against Israel Rokach, voiced concern over Herat's gains. She ascribed the gains of the rightist Herut to the attacks which the General Zionists and Leachduth Avodah were carrying on against the Mapai government. The new Knesset win meet on August 16, After electing a Speaker and a deputy speaker, it will adjourn until after the High Holidays. Negotiations with respect to the formation of a new Cabinet and the composition of the new government coalition HTO expected to begin as soon as the election results are fully analyzed by Mapai leaders, whose chief standard

bearers, Mosne Share tt and David

Ben Gurlon, are vacationing after
