Jewish Ship Owner Seeks to Halt Tank Delivery
New York reports that the Jewish owner of a ship carrying 18 tanks to Saudi Arabia is attempting to prevent their delivery. Jacob Michael says Saudi Arabia may refuse the vessel at Jeddah, directing a transshipment to Port Said, Egypt. He claims admiralty rights could allow taking over the ship if redirected, but official lines dispute his authority. Michael notes the issue strains his family amid Arab Israeli tensions and would require orders from Eisenhower or the state department to stop the shipment.
