The Soviet press has again attacked Israeli Prime Minister David Gen Gurion. An article in “Sovietskaya Byelorussia,” official government organ of White Russia, received here today, sharply criticized Mr. Ben Gurion for allegedly asserting that Jews in the Soviet Union and elsewhere in Eastern Europe face extermination. The newspaper differed with the Israeli Premier in his claim that the only hope for survival, for Jews in the Soviet bloc countries, was emigration to Israel.
