The World's Week
Compiled from JTA and WUP Reporfs
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (JTA) — The United Nations announced that a stained glass panel by the famous Jewish artist. Marc Chagall was unveviled at UN headquarters on Sept. 17, as a memorial to former Secretary-General Dag Hammerskjold and the 15 persons who died with him in a plane crash in northern Rhodesia. The cerembny marked the third anniversary of the accident.
LENNO.WILLE, QUE. (JTA)—Plans to revise a Good Friday prayer in the AngUcan prayerbook considered of¬ fensive to Jews were disclosed this week by Right Rev. J.R. Hunt, suffragan bishop of Toronto. He said that a mo¬ tion for such revision was approved by the 200 delegates at the Anglican synod's executive council meeting.
The Good Friday prayer includes the petition "have mercy on the Jews" and "take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart and contempt of the Word," Bishop Hunt said that it was agreed that it was "desirable that such negative words in reference to a people be replaced by posi¬ tive words of Christian charity and warm concern."
BUENOS AIRES (JTA) — Strong Federal legislation di¬ rected against anti-Semites who have been, for a long-time, stirring hatred in this country, was proposed to the Argen¬ tine Congress here this week by President Arturo Ilia.
The president sent to the Congress a bill outlawing all forms of hatemongering, included "verbal attacks on in¬ dividuals or groui>s, based on religion or ethnic origins." The measure would call for prison terms of one year to five years upon conviction.
NEW YORK (JTA) — Favorable Ecumenical Council action on a declaration specifically absolving tbe Jewish people of the ancient charge of deicide could help arrest the growing tide of anti-Semitism in Latin America, Morris B. Abrams, president of the American Jewsh Committee, asserted here.
He based the statement on the results of a three-week 15,000-mile tour of four Latin Anierican nations by AJCom- mittee leaders during which they conferred with top gov¬ ernment leaders and with leading Catholic prelates. The countries were Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Peru.
BONN (JTA — A spokesman for the West Gerrnan Government said this week that there were no immediate plans for a meeting between Chancellor Ludwig Erhai'd and Israel's Prime Minister Levi Eshkol. The comment was in reference to a statement by the Israeli Premier, in an interview with the Israeli daily newspaper "Maariv," t4|iit he expected to confer with tbe West German Chancelloi' before Israel's national elections in the summer^of 1905 on "very subsUintial and important matters."

Joint Arab Summit Meeting Reveals Basic Lack Of Unity
London (JTA)—Recurrent Arab rivalries appeared this week to have blocked Eqyptian Dictator Nas.ser's bid for power lo move troops to any Arab country in the Arali-lsrael Jordan River water dispute, according to reports from the Alexandria "summit" meeting of 13 Arab League member nations.
A series of contradictory announcemenl.s emerged from the conference on the issue. Initiall.v, the ai'mounced goal had been lo   give   Marshal Aly   Amer,    the

Egyptian who heads the unified Arab command to fight Israel, authority to move troop.s under his command to any Arab country to counter an Israeli  riposte.
The possibility of such a riposte stemmed from Arab plans to di¬ vert tributaries in their countries of the Jordan River and thus deny ils waters to Israel.
Initially, the Alexandria con¬ ference apparently approved a res¬ olution giving Marshal Amor auth¬ ority to move Arab military forces to other Arab countries "in case of war." But later, it appeared that Lebanon, queasy about the idea of Egyptian troops on its soil, had qualified that right by specifying that its government first had to consult its Parliament on such a move.
Another problem was that both Jordan and Lebanon are basically equipped with Western armaments, while Egypt has Soviet-made wea¬ pons. The Nasser plan apparently would have tied the Jordanian and Lebanese weapons systems into the Soviet types.
The 13 Arab rulers agreed to spend up to $14,000,000 annually to strengthen the forces commanded by Marshal Amer, a trivia] sum measured by the costs of modern

President Elect Charles Halou of Ix.>banon warned against pre¬ mature execution of the headwater diversion plan through construction of a dam in Jordan. He insisted that only Egypt was strong enough to fight Israel and that Jordan, Lebanon and Syria might have to bear the brunt of an IsraeU at¬ tack "before the Egyptians had time" to defeat Israel,
Tho Arab rulers approved the in¬ formation of an army of Palestin¬ ian refugees but put off implement¬ ing that decision for the time be¬ ing. A spokesman said that Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Iraq had pledged funds to finance the pro- prosed Arab refugee army and that Nasser had offered territory in the Sinai Peninsula and Gaza Strip for training the proposed army. Its purpose would be to seek to regain "the territory of Palestine" from Israel.
