There were no casualities,l and damage was negligible. The incident was the first on the Leb- anese border since Jan. 7 when Arab saboteurs blew up an empty house in Shetula village. An Israeli policeman was hurt near Ramallah Sunday when his patrol car hit a mine. A soldier was wounded by a sniper's bullet near Kantara at the northern end of the Suez Canal. A military spokesman said a soldier and an Army technician were wounded when Syrian gunners attacked a military vehicle in Golan Heights Military sources reported that terrorist and saboteur activities showed a marked decline last week—only 29 incidents compar- ed to 42 the week before. The in- cidents were scattered and re- sulted in the death of one Israeli soldier and injuries to three others and to a dozen Arab resi- dents. The reported decline in terrorist TORONTO (JTA)—The lay lead- er of Canada's largest Protestant church said in a radio debate here that Canadian Jews were "para- noid" on the subject of Israel and had "split loyalty" on it. Dr. Robert McClure, moderator of the United Church of Canada, spoke in a dialogue with Emil Fackenheim, a Jewish writer and professor of philosophy at Toronto University, which was broadcast live by the Canadian Brodacasting Corp. Dr. McClure, a physician, is titular head of the church. He maintained that the Jews of Canada wore "three hats"—first as Canadian citizens and second as Jewish religionists, which posed no problems. But in relation to their attitude toward Israel, he said, they have a persecution com- plex and resent any criticism. Prof. Fackenheim replied that in more than 20 years, the Chris- tian community had failed to come to terms with the Nazi holocaust, citing its silence before the June 1967 war when Arabs were threat- ening the destruction of all Jews in Israel. He asked Dr. McClure if he felt a "split loyalty between Canada and Christ." Dr. McClure suggested that Canadian Jews felt obliged to "shout louder" because they had a guilty conscience — they were more comfortable in Canada than are Jews in Israel. The United Church of Canada is Methodist and Congregationalist and includes a section of Presby- terians. Its official organ, the Ob- server, is edited by Rev. A. C. Forrest, who has been condemned by many • Canadian clergymen for anti-Israel, pro-Arab bias. It has consistently carried articles un- favorable to Israel.

An Israeli spokesman said there had been no call-up of reserves and that troop concentrations were at a normal level. The decline in commando activi- ty was attributed here to Arab fear of reprisals such as the Dec. 28 raid on Beirut Airport.
