"RALLY ASKS WILSON TO AID ISRAEL.
A resolution calling on the Government to take effective action to help Israel was passed at a rally of 9,000 people in the Royal Albert Hall last night.
The rally, organised by the British Zionist Federation, was addressed by MPs of all three main British parties as well as by the Chief Rabbi, Dr Immenuel Jakobovits.
Apart from the attacks on President Nasser and other Arab leaders, there was strong criticism of the British Government's policy of sitting on the fence.
The severest condemnation came from Mr J W Pardow Liberal MP for Cornwall North."
