Bedouins Seek Israeli Ties
Transcribed from the clipping
BEERSHEBA, Palestine, Nov. 18—Three Bedouin chieftains, representing 15,000 Arab tribesmen, joined sixteen Sheiks today in Israeli-held Beersheba and signed with their rings and other symbols a petition asking the Israel authorities to grant protection to them.
How this transcription was made
Read from the scan by a machine looking at the image of the page, not by optical character recognition and not by a person. The clipping carries no masthead or date line, so its date and newspaper rest on the record it arrived with, not on anything visible in the scan.
