, Washington (JTA)—A State Department spokesman, has indicated that Secretary of State Dean Rusk will probably meet with Israeli Ambassador Yitzhak Rabin this week to discuss arrangements for the negotiations that President Johnson-directed Mr. Rusk to open with Israel for the sale of American supersonic military aircraft to that country. But a Washington columnist considered an authority on U.S.-military affairs charged that the Johnson directive was a "stalling ploy" prompted by election-year politics and expressed doubt that Israel would receive the jet planes from this, Administration. According to Robert J. McCloskey, the department spokesman, the Rusk-Rabin meeting would probably deal with such details as when and where to begin actual negotiations and at what "level theTalk^shbuId Tie conducted. Other department officials have explained.that detailed deliberations were necessary, to establish Israel's needs with respect to the number and type of jets and terms and conditions of sale. Israel has requested 50 F-4 Phantom jet fighter-bombers, considered to be the best fully operational aircraft of its type in the American arsenal, President Johnson's announcement directing negotiations did not specify what type plane was involved but observers here are virtually certain that hejiad the Phantom in mind. i ,

Political Stall „ , , .Col; Robert S. Allen, a syndicated columnist who is known'to have access td the highest U.S. military circles, claimed that the Johnson announcement was "largely window dressing" and actually means very '—little. Colonel Allen, who has long advocated the supply, of Phantoms to Israel, noted that there was nothing in the President's announcement that "commits.him to approve the sale . . . He did not even put a time, limit on the duration of the so-called negotiations." . '.. V The columnist pointed out that "as the President has only three more months in office, it would not be too difficult for the State Department to prolong negotiations beyond that.time. The election is one monthoff and on the basis of Johnson's record on this issue, the odds are against his authorizing a sale."

Israel Square Named In Copenhagen Rites COPENHAGEN (JTA)—Jerusalem, a city built on hills, and Copenhagen; a city on. the sea, were united symbolically Friday when "Israel Square" was officially named in the heart of the Danish capital. The naming was performed by Mayor Teddy Kollek of Jerusalem who will officiate at a later date when "Copenhagen Square" is dedicated in Jerusalem. The events marked the 25th anniversary of the rescue of almost all of Denmark's 8,000 Jews from deportation by the Nazis. Mayor Kollek and other speakers alluded to that episode in remarks at the dedication ceremonies.
ism and intemperate arrogance have no place in a university faculty." The AJ Congress was one of several Jewish groups, along with the Catholic Interraciol Council and the Protestant Council, which condemned the appointment of "Mr. "HatT chett to the NYU post last July.

The university offered a c o m p r o m i s e under which the teacher could serve as an advisor to Negro students on the campus, using his year's severance pay as .salary. The university offered -office space provided that the student groups supporting Mr. Hatchett paid the rent. Dr. James M. Hester, NYU president, said the principal reason for terminating Mr. Hatchett's appointment was that he "has proved to be increasingly ineffective in p e r f o r ming his duties because of the incompatability of many of his actions and public statements with the requirements of his position in thejiniversity." Some 200 s t u d e n t s held a noisy but generally orderly demonstration on New York Uni-

The Institute released a study that found the danger of miscalculation in the Middle East to be "considerable." It w a r n e d that the growing Soviet power in the Mediterranean will make it increasingly difficult for the U.S. to consider even a partial withdrawal. • Soviet Influence A major point stressed -was that Soviet influence over Egypt is now far beyond that of the U.S. in Israel. The Institute attached great importance to the control by each major powen>f~ its client states. The report suggests that the Super E o w e j s "rather than just containing each other will find themselves forced together to contain con- : flicts." • ; A main point troubling the In-' etitute was whether M o s c o w ' would tolerate "smaller military operations by her Arab clients; against Israel . . . The danger that such smaller action could escalate beyon'd that1 which the Soviet Union may be prepared to tolerate or can effectively control is likely to grow."

By Wilton Friedman Presidential candidate George Wallace is riding the crest of a wave that swept away Abe Fortas' chance to become Americans first Jewish Chief Justice. . This is not to .suggest that anti-Semitism is, sweeping the nation. The reactionary tide, is a confused blend of c o m e rvatism and racism.

Such people are bitter because America is changing. They are frightened. They live in fear of riots and revolts. They see the ; country "falling apart." The Supreme Court is blamed not only for coddling , criminals but for allegedly imposing black control on white citizens. American defeat in Vietnam'is attributed to alleged treachery and- incompe. tence in high places. . Fortas Defeat The popular mood of reaction defeated Mr. Fortas.

QUESTION: Why does the dying man proclaim the message of the faith by saying "Hear O' Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord i s One" before passing away? ' ANSWER: Rabbi Akiba is said to have passed a martyr's death after reciting this declaration. The patriarch Jacob i s said to have done likewise. Generally speaking, it behooves a man to express his faith and to, so to speak, reassure himself by using this declaration in times of crisis as well as in times of change. Thus, we'declare these words each morning in testimony of the change from night to day as we do contrarywise, every evening. It is uttered in times of our greatest change and crisis—the hour of death. Perhaps the true test of a man's faith is for him to express his belief in God when God is taking from him his very life. "
