The Israel Parliament voted overwhelmingly last night to protest the re-arming of both East and West Germany. Seventy-six deputies voted for this motion, while a sprinkling of 12 Communists and Mapam deputies voted for censure only of the arming of West Germany.
In the discussion which preceded the vote on these resolutions, Premier Moshe Sharett noted that the re-arming of Germany resulted from the world-wide East-West conflict and that while the re-arming of East Germany began four years ago, the arming of West Germany has only now gotten under way. Mr. Sharett described West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer as a man who sincerely strives to establish a democratic Germany.
