Levi Eshkol said that even with
receipt of 50 F-4 Phantoms "we
are far from a true arms bal-
ance." He said the Soviet Union
was "still supplying vast quantities
of modern weapons to Israel's ene-
mies" and that Israel's defense
"necessitates we acquire more
weapons at tremendous cost." The
50 Phantoms reportedly involve a
cost of S200,000,000.
NEW YORK (JTA)—Jewish or-
ganizations issued statements
accusing the State Department
of bias against Israel for condemn-
ing the Israeli raid on the Beirut
airport while remaining silent con-
cerning the Arab guerrilla attack
on an El Al airliner earlier at
Athens airport. Among the protest-
ing organizations were the Zionist
Organization of America, Ameri-
can Jewish Congress, Union of Or-
thodox Jewish Congregations, Rab-
binical Council of America, New
York Board of Rabbis and Ameri-
can Jewish Committee.
Jacques Torczyner, ZOA presi-
dent, said that "silence toward the
Arabs and criticism toward Israel"
was hardly an example of "even-
handedness." He charged that the
State Department was trying to
undermine the agreement for the
sale of 50 Phantom jet aircraft to
Israel, declaring that completion
of the agreement was needed to
reduce "the tremendous imbalance
between Egypt's military airpower
and that of Israel."
Rabbi Arthur J. Lelyveld, presi-
dent of the American Jewish Con-
gress, said that "the proper func-
tion" of the State Department at
this time was "to demand that the
Arab government stop offering en-
couragement, hospitality and sup-
port to those terrorist forces whose
wanton disregard for human life
threatens to plunge the Middle
East into still another round •of
war."
Rabbi Joseph Karasick, presi-
dent of the UOJC, said that the
State Department should follow the
same sensitivity toward dangers to
Israel from the Arabs as it did for
the feelings of the Arab rulers.
Rabbi Zev Segal, president of the
Orthodox rabbinical group, ac-
cused the State Department of
lacking objectivity. He said his
organization was "astonished" at
the contrast between the quick
condemnation of Israel and the
silence on the Athens attack.
Rabbi Gilbert Klaperman, presi-
dent of the New York Board of
Rabbis, said in a telegram to
Secretary of State Dean Rusk,
that the State Department was
showing "incomprehensible bias"
against Israel in the two incidents.
Rabbi Klaperman said in the tele-
gram that Israel could not con-
tinue to be "a sitting duck every-
where for terrorist activities while

Conference of Presidents of Major
American Jewish Organizations
was to meet with Secretary of
State Dean Rusk at the State De-
partment on Thursday morning to
discuss the Middle East situation.
Angered by the unilateral and
double standard action of the
world powers in condemning Is-
rael while ignoring all previous
injuries inflicted upon Israelis,
spokesmen in Israel and at the
UN rejected the resolution. Te-
koah charged that the UN was
"morally and politically bank-
rupt." He declared that its text
was invalidated by the principles
of the UN Charter.
Jews everywhere were angered
especially by the "sanctimonious"
assertions of

der in an attack
on an Israeli plane, or the mass
murders of Israeli civilians by
Arab terrorists in Tel Aviv and
Jerusalem. In Israel, Minister of
Religions Zerah Warhaftig was
especially outspoken in his critic-
ism of the Pope.
The American Jewish Committee
issued a statement saying that "no
violence in the Middle East should
be condoned" but it pointed out
that Israel had never been able
to obtain relief in the Security
Council because of the Soviet veto.
The American Israel Public Af-
fairs Committee protested to Secre-
tary of • State Rusk against the
"partisan attitude" of the United
States in condemning Israel's
Beirut reprisal after ignoring the
Arab terrorism that provoked the
raid.
U. S. Ambassador to the UN J.
R. Wiggins, annoyed as so many
others were with the outrageous
attacks on Israel by the Soviet bloc
and the Arab spokesmen, dissociat-
ed himself from-"sweeping general-
izations" and declared: "Israel is
not on trial here for its life. Israel
is not being asked here to defend
its right to exist."
The resolution adopted Monday
by the Council of the City of Chi-
cago reviewed the events that led
to the Israeli reprisal in Beirut and
declared: "Be it resolved that the
Council ask our State Department
to seek ways to a permanent peace
in the Middle East and that it
understand that actions of Israel
and particularly its retaliatory
raid on the Beirut airport as the

UNITED NATION N.Y. (JTA)—
The Security Council Tuesday
adopted a strong resolution of cen-
sure against Israel for the com-
mando raid against Lebanon's
civilian airport at Beirut.
After a night meeting Monday
that lasted until 1 a.m. Tuesday,
and after Israel had been con-
demned sharply in speeches by all
15 members of the Council, the
chief delegates had agreed to a
draft resolution condemning Israel
for a premeditated attack, declar-
ing that such action jeopardized
maintenance of international
peace, warning Israel that any.
further action of this type will re-
quire stronger Council action and
declaring that Lebanon is entitled
to appropriate compensation for
damages.
The barrage of anti-Israeli
voices in the council was led by
the Soviet Unions' envoy, Ambas-
sador Yakov A. Malik, but had the
out-and-out support of the leading
Western ambassadors, including
Wiggins and Lord Caradon of
Britain, as well as such old friends
of Israel as the ambassadors from
Canada and Denmark.
Adoption of the resolution of
condemnation, which suggested
"appropriation redress" for dam-
age done to Arab aircraft, was
speeded because composition of the
Security Council membership was
to change drastically at midnight
Tuesday.
The five permanent members of
the Council remain, as they must
under the UN. Charter. They are
the United States, Britain, France,
the Soviet Union and Nationalist
China. But five of the 10 non-per-
manent members' tenure expired.
Going off the Council were Canada,
Brazil, Denmark, Ethiopia and
India. Their places were taken on
Jan. 1 by Finland, Colombia,
Nepal, Spain and Zambia.
The retiring Council feared that,
unless a decision was made by
midnight Tuesday, the debate on
the complaints would start all over
again, with time to be given the
new Council members to familiar-
ize themselves with issues in the
Arab-Israel conflicts. The new
president of the Council is the am-
bassador from Finland. Max Jakob-
son.
Lebanon had sent a special dele-
gation to the Council meeting,
headed by Fouad Boutros, a for-
mer foreign minister of the Beirut
government. He not only attacked
Israel sharply inside the Council
but, in the corridors, he lobbied
vigorously for a strong anti-Israeli
resolution, calling not only for
compensation by Israel for the
planes destroyed at the Beirut
airport but also for a United Na-
tions boycott against Israel's com-
mercial aviation under a clause
in the UN Charter which author-
ized economic sanctions against a
member state that violates the
charter.
Premier Abdullah Yafi of the
Lebanon lined his government up
squarely with the Arab terrorist
organizations and told newsmen in
Beirut that "we consider Arab com-
mando action legal and sacred ac-
tion." He said the Israeli attack
on the Beirut Airport would not
weaken Lebanon's support of the
Palestine Arab guerrillas including
those who had attacked the Israeli
airliner in Athens last Thursday.
The Soviet Union had served no-
tice that it would be satisfied with
nothing less than sanctions against
Israel and would not go along with
an "emasculated" resolution of
condemnation of Israel's reprisal
attack on Beirut airport. Speaking
-for the Soviet Union in the Security
Council debate Monday night.
Malik insisted that mere condem-
