Snatch Tel Aviv . . . A top secret . Soviet built radar unit was brought back Intact from Egypt by Israeli commandos after a raid on the Has Ghareb coastal defense station near the Gulf of Suez a week ago. The sevenion unit, one of the most modern pieces of Soviet equipment In Egypt, was airlifted into Israeli territory by cargo hencopter after it was carefully cut into two sections of manageabe size. The story of the "radar snatch" broke exactly one week after the raid occurred. Israeli

censors released it after an account was published byo the Daily Express in London, but the feat was an open secret here for days. The official Israeli account of the raid merely stated that it had been successful and that four Egyptian prisoners were taken. The prisoners turned out to be Russian-trained Egyptian technicians who manned the radar unit. They were unarmed. E g y p t i a n soldiers guarding the base fled after putting up token resistance. According to the account pub-

EmergencyMeet for US Jewish Leaders NEW YORK (JTA)—A national emergency conference of Jewish leadership on Middle East peace has been called-, for Jan. 25-26 in Washington by the Conference of Presidents • of Major American Jewish Organizations. Rabbi Herschel Schacter, Conference chairman, said, that participants will include representatives of all of the 24 constituent organizations of the Presidents Conference and that invitations were being extended to major leaders of Jewish communities and others. The two-day emergency conference will be held against the background of rising concern in the American Jewish community over what has been described as a "serious erosion" in State Department Rabbi policy on a Middle East settlement. In Schacter issuing the calf for the meeting;" Rabbi Schacter cited a Dec. 22 meeting between a Conference delegation and Secretary of State William P. Rogers, at which Rabbi Schacter conveyed to Mr. Rogers the Jewish com-' munity's "deep concern and apprehension" over, recent United States proposals for a Middle East settlement. After the meeting, Rabbi Schacter issued a statement, warning that the United States plan for a Middle East settle"inenTwould"1 'strengthen- Arab intransigoneo-and-Soviet. de»— signs and lead to an imposed settlement rather than a negotiated peace between the parties—the stated policy of our Government." The emergency, meeting is expected to be the largest and most representative gathering of American Jewish leadership since a similar conference in Washington during the 1967 Six-Day War.

Members of Congress Hit by Mail Barrage Protesting Mideast Policy Washington (JTA) — Members of Congress disclosed this week that they have been receiving a barrage of mail and telegrams f r o m constituents protesting the alleged erosion . of United States policy toward Israel and a Middle East settlement. W h e n they ask for clarification from the State Department, these Congressmen , are told that there has been no shift in U.S. policy toward Israel, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learned. Inquiries at the White House and the State Department have elicited Administration re-

French Poll Probes 'Jewish Influence' Paris (JTA)—Nearly onequarter of the people of France believe that Jews exert "too great an influence" in France, according to a poll conducted by the French Institute of Public Opinion. The poll was conducted before the affair of the five gunboats which evaded the French embargo and sailed from Cherbourg for Israel. Nearly 45 per cent of those interviewed in the p o l l thought that the Jewish influence in France was "normaL" But the newspaper, LTSxpress, which sponsored the poll, remarked that there was an inherent tendency toward a n t i - S e m i t i s m in France that was not confined to any specific element of the population.

Catholic Texts Will Be Studied for Bias Chicago (JTA)—A" national textbook commission will examine textbooks used in Cathf-olic- e l e m e n t a r y and high schools for racial ethnic or religious bias, the National Catholic Conference for Inter-racial Justice announced here. The commission was initiated by. the NCCIJ's department of educational services. Its members include classroom teach- ers, parents, academicians and textbook writers, under the direction of S. Margaret Ellen Traxler. The first reports of the study will begin in late January. The NCCIJ conceded that . "anti-Semitism and racial bigotry exists in texts and other learning tools in Catholic classrooms," adding that "sporadic ad hoc vigilante groups are not always best qualified to do the evaluation."

Alien Reports Due in January W. R. Wilson, District Director of the Omaha, Nebraska Immigration and Naturalization Service has again remind' ed all aliens to report their addresses during January. Cards with which to make the reports are available at Post Offices and offices of the Immigration and Naturalization Service throughout the country. The Teports must be submitted to one of those offices. Parents or guardians submit reports for alien children under fourteen years of age,-- - : Mr. Wilson urges all aliens to report before the end of January, as willful failure to do so may lead to serious consequences.

sponses which ranged from insistance t h a t t h e r e is not change to hints that there may be differences between. President Nixon and Secretary of State William P. Rogers, these Congressmen say. But one highly placed Congressional source said that key administration l e a d e r s were told at a White House briefing that the U.S. is taking steps to assure that it does not become embroiled in a Mideast war as Israel's partner which could lead to a confrontation with the Soviet Union. Rep. Seymour H a l p e r n , a New York R e p u b l i c a n who wrote to Secretary of State Rogers for a clarification of his Dec. 9 speech on the Mideast, said the reply he received was "an obvious evasion of the erosion of the U.S. position on Israel." The reply was written by"H. G. Torbert, Jr., acting Assistant Secretary of State for Congressional Relations. According to Mr. Torbert U. S. policy continues to be based

on the Security Council's Nov. 22, 1967 M i d e a s t resolution which calls for a just and lasting peace and rejects the acquisition of territory by force of arms. The resolution envisions Israel's e v e n t u a I withdrawal from the occupied Arab territories but, Mr. T o r b e r t wrote, the U.S. continues to "stand firmly on the position that Israel should not be expected to withdraw its forces f r o m any occupied territory except in the context of peace and security based on mutually b i n d i n g c o m m i tments agreed upon between it and its neighbors." In r e s p o n s e to Rep. Halpern's request for clarification of Mr. Rogers' Dec. 9 remarks on Jerusalem and the Arab refugees, Mr. Torbert alleged that press accounts had been "misleading." He said "The Secretary did not propose how Jerusalem should be governed or accord any specjal status to the Palestinian Arabs or offer any comfort to terrorist acts."

Pyrdye Discourages Eastern Applicants West Lafayette, Ind. (JTA)Purdue University has eased a 20-year restriction on the admission of applicants from the metropolitan New York-New Jersey area but has introduced a new quota on admissions to the undergraduate school from the states of New York and New Jersey which does not apply to other states of the Union. The university, a state institution, eased the old ban after Rabbi Gerald Engel, Hillel Foundation director on the campus, and members of the student body had charged that the geographical quota system was actually racist in its operation since a great majority of the.applicants from the eastern area were members of minorities, many of them Jewish. Under the original restriction, admissions from the metropolitan New York-New Jersey area were limited to the children of Purdue graduates. No such limitations was applied to other parts of the country except that out of state students were limited to 25 per cent of the student enrollment. Under the new arrangement

going into effect with the new s e m e s t e r , admissions from New York and New Jersey will be limited to that proportion of the student body which the two states represent. •The Purdue admissions authorities apparently are- continuing efforts to discourage applicants from New York and New Jersey. While letters of inquiry from other states received an encouraging response and applications form, applicants from New York and New Jersey receive letters discouraging their further interest —Applicants from New York, are told that only 120 freshmen can be admitted from the state in next September's entering class, New Jersey applicants are told that only 44 can be accepted. The letters note that preference will be given to sons and daughters of alumni and point out that "since the Cling of an application requires a $20 non-refundable application fee and since the number of non-alumni admissions will be so small, we feel all inquirers must know our limitations before they apply."

50 Embargoed Mirage Jets Shifted to New French Base PARIS (JTA)—Israel has apparently concluded that the French Government will not release its 50 embargoed Mirage supersonic jets in the near future and has withdrawn all of its air crews and maintenance personnel that have been standing by the planes. The air crews left France six months ago and the maintenance men were withdrawn about six weeks ago. The planes themselves have been transferred from two bases at Istrcs and Bordeaux-Merignac in southern and western France to Chateaudun, a huge central Franco airbasc, where they are now being maintained by French Air Force crews and mechanics of the Dassault company which manufactured the Mirages. The French authorities apparently believe that surveillance of the planes will be easier at the inland base. The French have tightened surveillance since Israel took over five embargoed gunboats at Cherbourg on Christmas day and sailed them to Haifa. It was learned that French Air Force planes shadowed the gunboats during part of their voyage across the Mediterranean but made no attempt to stop them.

Survey Finds 29 States With Improved Civil Rights Laws New York (JTA) — A year end survey by the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith disclosed that 29 states adopted laws Improving the protection of civil rights during 1969. The results of the survey were published in "Law," an ADL publication. ' •• . The number of states passing protective laws was down 13 since 1967, the last year in, which nearly all legislatures met for general business. This was attributed to the fact that "most states in which one can realistically expect enactment of such laws have already taken a c t i o n , " the publication said. A majority of the laws p a s s e d in 1969 strengthened existing legislation against discrimination. Housing Laws The survey found, however, that fair housing legislation still lags well behind existing enactments against other types of discrimination. Five states —Delaware, Idaho, Nebraska, New Mexico and Washington^'

If the government thinks the next war will last two weeks, we may be in China."

There are 37 states with laws against discrimination in employment and 38 that h a v e laws against discrimination in places of public accommodation. • . The report noted that Indiana, Minnesota ami New York added to their fair h o u s i n g laws last year a prohibition against "blockbusting." A similar law was enacted by Illinois which still has no -fair housing law. Maine was reported to be the first state to pass a law dealing with discrimination by private clubs'which hold state liquor licenses.

Ross Perot; the head "of" the "United We Stand" organization, who organized the airlift, included Bibles for the Jewish prisoners supplied to him by the commission on Jewish chaplaincy of the National Jewish Welfare Board.

Newsmen Charge Agnew's Speeches Created New Wave of Anti-Semitism Washington (JTA)-A team "of Washington correspondents charged this week that Vice P r e s i d e n t Spiro Agnew's speeches against the press and television has had the "unin-tcntional effect" of creating "a renewed wave of public expression of anti-Semitism." Writing in the Washington

Post, columnists Frank Mankiewicz and Tom Braden said the effect of the speeches was noticeable immediately in the "obscene phone calls protesting 'Jew-Commies' on the air" and in the "avalanche of sick mail." The columnists asserted that "obviously Agnew did not in-

Homes, Jobs in Israel For 39 Black US Sews Tel Aviv (JTA)—A group of 39 black Jews from Chicago who migrated to Israel unexpectedly three weeks ago are apparently getting along very well in their new environment. The Jewish Agency has settled them temporarily at Dlmona, a new industrial town in the Negev desert between Beersheba and the Dead Sea. But their eventual status as immigrants remains undecided. Within three days of their arrival at Dimona all families found work at the nearby textile plants and in local shops and factories, according to the Jewish Agency. Their children are already attending school. All of them have H e b r e w names and have some knowledge of the Hebrew language. The group arrived penniless at Lydda Airport from Liberia. They told Israeli officials they

had tried to set up a Jewish communal s e t t l e m e n t in the West African country but were made to feel "unwanted" and decided to go to Israel "where we belong."' The Government issued them visitors visas, good for three months, and they arc expected to receive permanent residents permits. Their status as immigrants and the privileges that go with it depends upon whether they are recognized as Jews by Israel's chief rabbinate. A number of rabbis have taken an interest in the case and are trying to settle the problem the Jewish Agency said. The newcomers will probably have to undergo conversion rites. They seem to have no complaints. They say "This is our home and we are going to work and stay, here," the Jewish Agency reported.

tend to spray kerosene on a banked fire. But the language he used was the same country club English which has put him in trouble before." They noted that the Vice President's charge that the American press and television was controlled by a small group of men in New York and Washington had "produced a Ravlovian reaction.'_ They pointed out that "the theme that America's press and television is controlled and dominated by a small group of Jews in New York and Washington ii dominant among the anti-Semitic lunatic fringe and has been so, at least since the days preceding World War II when the German-American Bund made it an article of faith in order to counteract a press increasingly critical of Adolf Hitler. Mr. Agnew, the columnists reported, "was unprepared for the reaction from the lunatic right and he has instructed his staff to answer mail in praise of his alleged anti-Semitism by disclaiming it." The "little group" of men who control American communications—if there is one— the columnists asserted, "is white, Anglo-Saxon Protestant —as any headcount of the owners of American media will reveal. But professional antiSemites are undisturbed by facts. Unless Agnew can escape their embrace, be may one day worry about the political consequences."

.Ant ^Zionist Slogans Applauded At 'Young Socialist" Convention Minneapolis (JTA) — Anti-Zionist slogans were shouted from the floor at the Young Socialist Alliance convention here where delegates demanded that the organization accelerate its support of the "Arab revolution andPalestinian liberation." The four-day convention at the University of Minnesota drew about COO delegates. The Young Socialist Alliance is a Trotskyite-Marxist group affiliated with the Socialist Workers Party. It claims 10,000 members, a majority of them students. YSA national chairman Larry Seigle said the organization's existing policy in favor of the Arabs would get new emphasis. Its pro-

ponents contend that as the Middle East conflict escalates, students would become more receptive to the YSA's "defense of the Arab struggle against Zionism." It was learned that three^Arab students helped set'the stage for the new emphasisT Heavy applause greeted their, slogan, "Death to U.S. Imperialism. Death to Zionism. Long live the"* Palestinian revolution." One of the Arab students brought greetings from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a guerrilla organization. A YSA officer said later that the organization supported no particular Arab group and that while it opposed Zionism, it supported "Socialist revolution" in Israel.

Mayor Lindsay Blamed for \ Clash at UN Soviet Mission New York (JTA) — Rabbi Meier Kahane, director of the Jewish defense L e a g u e , accused Mayor Lindsay's office this week of responsibility for a clash between JDL members and the police at a demonstration outside the Soviet mission to the United N a t i o n s . A spokesman for the Mayor's office said that the matter was "completely h a n d l e d by the Police Department" and that the charge against the Mayor's office was "fiction." Rabbi Kahne who was one of 27 persons, mostly JDL members, arrested in the m e l e e , also charged that the clash developed when police refused to honor a permit permitting a demonstration at the site on behalf of Soviet Jewry. He said the permit had been honored p r e v i o u s l y in the JDL-proclaimed vigil. All of the arrested demonstrators were released in their own custody. In an earlier a c t i o n , 13 youthful JDL members and

Rabbi Kahane were arrested and all but five were booked on charges which included assault, criminal trespass; disorderly conduct and juvenile delinquency. A 14 year old boy was one ofthose arrested after several of the demonstrators painted slogans on a Soviet airliner after it landed at Kennedy airport. A Port Authority' spokesman said two of them handcuffed themselves to the nosewheel of the Ilyushin-62 airliner. Others daubed the words "Am Yisroel chai" (the Israel Nation lives) on the plane's doors. A similar slogan was painted on the walls of the office of Tass, the Soviet news agency, in Rockefeller Plaza which was invaded by Rabbi Kahane and four other JDL members. The rest of the demonstrators were taken into custody after they invaded the midtown offices of Intourist, The S o v i e t tourist bureau.

Black Panther Leader Voices Support for Arab Terrorists LONDON (JTA)—Eldridge Cleaver, the Black Panther leader wanted by American police, said in Algiers this week that,the militant Negro movement in the U.S. fully supports Palestinian guerrilla activities against Israel. Cleaver, who has found asylum in Algeria, told the newspaper El Moujahid that "Zionists, wherever they may be, are our enemies." He said the Panthers "totally support the armed struggle of the Palestinian people against the watchdogs of imperialism." He charged that the U.S. uses the Zionist "to torpedo the struggle of pur people for liberation." Cleaver met earlier with El Fatah leader Yasser Arafat and pledged Black Panther cooperation against all pro-Israel Jews. ...... . HELEN A. BERNSTEIN 393-9111

Sabbath TV in Israel The common man in Israel has won a great victory. Now he can watch television on Friday nights. Some months ago the cabinet approved telecasts for the Sabbeth eve. Then it reneged. Following the elections, in order to form a coalition including the Religion Party, Prime Minister Meir announced the country would have to reconsider Friday" night TV. -Israeli television Is shamefully dull, as dull as anything aired in the U.S. It seemed perhaps that the Labor Alignment was doing the constituency a favor by banning broadcasts for some 14 hours over the weekend. But the constituency didn't appreciate the favor. The constitutency was annoyed enough to take the issue to the Supreme Court which ruled in its favor. Now the Israelis can follow the adventures of Ben, Hoss and Little Joe Carlwright on Friday nights. Ben-Gurion used to admonish the Israelis that the country could not have television until it could afford good television. But after the Six-Day War, the Israelis suddenly found themselves with a huge captured Arab population, all of whom were tuned into the Jordanian and Egyptian propaganda. So

Israel instituted TV on a crash program. After the antennas were constructed and the' studio space rented and the first programs beamed, the Israelis discovered that in the Gaza Strip and on the west bank of the Jordoa there weren't 5,000 Arabs who owned sets and those Arabs who did own sets still tuned into Egyptian and Jordanian telecasts. .. The Israelis are not partieu- larly kind about television producers. They have made i scapegoats of them. .One_of__ these producers is Azria Rapoport who had been a successful journalist and radio broadcaster. The government prevailed upon him to produce television shows. They said, "Azria, there is no trick in producing a successful show with proper lighting and expert cameramen. It is easy to entertain the public and amuse them with competent actors and natural-born script writ- ' ers. With enough studio space, an inventive producer can telfiivise anything. The real trick.is to produce superb television with none of these things." "Well," confesses Azria Rapoport, "it is a trick I have yet to pull out of the hat." He is going to get the chance to pull this trick out of the hat on Friday nights, every program bearing the legend, "Not filmed, taped or written on the Sabbath." Some Israelis believe educational TV will help solveihe— 10 Years Ago problem of absorption.
