The immediate bringing over to Israel of Jews from French Morocco was urged here today by Zalman Shazar, member of the Jewish Agency executive, upon his return from North Africa.

Mr. Shazar reported that there is great danger for the Jews in Morocco, where Moslem religious fanaticism is reaching dangerous dimensions. At the same time, he indicated that in Tunisia, which is now receiving its internal autonomy from France, the Jews have nothing to fear.
