ment to take firm measures.

The IO-ipagc dncultnent, presented by the colonial secretary to Parlia- ment mid evidence gleaned from intercepted communications lhovj- ed that Hagana, a hufle 3W1" underground organization. Mid "5 permanent military arm. known a5 Palmadii. worked under Wllllfml control of prominent Jewish afifllfly m rs in the program of vio- lence in Palestine carried out “un- der the guise of the Jewish resist once movement "

Since last autumn. the aovern- ‘ment charged. the lesser under- ground organlmticns-the Irgun Zvai Leumi and the extreme stern gang which originated a8 dieflldent Jewish factions-worked in co-op- eration with Haucnzfs high com ?mand on certain 0d 8116b UPQTR" tions.

A spokesman for the Jewish agency in London said the Jews had no immediate comment

The overnmerit said the inter- cepted elegrams linked the Jew- ish leaders Moshe Shertok. Bern- ard Joseph. David Ben GUTlOTl and others with anned attacks by the three Jewish ‘illegal para-military organizations," Hsgana. Iftllln Zvai Leumi and the Stern Gang

Shertok. Jose li and other ar- rested leaders o the Jewish agency still are in confinement in the Latrun detention camp.

The Jewish agency consists of both Zionists and non-Zionists and is recognized by the British and Palestine governments as the agency for the Jewish people in matters pertaining to Jewish immigration and the Jewish national hcnoe.

The paper concluded:-

"l. ‘That the Hagaria and its as. scciated force. the Palmach (work- ing under the political control of prominent members of the Jew- ish agency) have been engaging in carefully planned movements of sabotage and yiclmceundar the guise of the ‘Jewish resistance movement.’ .

“2. That Ihjlln Zvai Ileumi and the Stern group have worked since last autumn in co-operation with the H-agtana high command in eer- taln operation:

"3. That the broadcasting station ‘K01 Israel.‘ which claims to be the ‘voice of the resistance movement’ and which was working under the general direction of the Jewish aseney. has been supporting these organizations."

Soviet Writer Attacks Basie System in li.S.

By REMBERT JAMES

MOSCOW. July 24 - IAP) Soviet Journalist David Zasiavsky today assailed the Federal Bureau of Investigation as the "American secret police.‘ and charged its prosecution of i-he Lieut. Nicolai Rodin spy case was "a criminal conspiracy" aimed at injuring Sc- viet-American relations.

Redin was acquitted July l7 in Seattle of espionage charges. Journalist lly-i Ehrenburg, writ- ing in the Soviet government news- paper Izvestia. told the Russian people that "America. which never knew feudalism. llad established an- other hierarchy-q; racili one" _Continuing a presentation of his mpressions of his recent visit to the United States. he said Ameri- cans had a caste system ‘entirely unofficial in the case of Jews, Its.‘- ians and Chinese, but legalized in the case of Negroes."

Zaslavrirys article angrilv at- tacked F B‘I Chief Edgar Hoover “and his accomplices" for the con- duct of the Rodin case.

“'I‘his conspiracy of secret police and bandits had as its goal the in- fringement of those friendly rela- tions which t-he American and Sov- iet peoples had during the war likdinst the uommdn enemy and which still remain at present, de- spite all efforts of the American pro-Fascist kind reactionary," the

article said said the FB I

The article handling of the t-ese “was not only brutal, but Icl-imsy and inept." bu: that the arrest of Rodin became "a signal for a fierce anti-Soviet campaign by the reactionary press."

liitirenlburgs Izyestis article dc- scribed what ne called the Amery can racial caste system as puzz- lin in a country which fought to do. eat Hitlerism

"The English. Scotch and Irish are the aristocracy," he wrote "Af-

and Siavs. The Italians are many‘ limes lower. The Jews are even lower. The Puerto Ricans are be- low them. and last, at the bottm of the ladder, are the Negroes."
