In resolutions passed at the con-

U.S. to provide Israel with the
weapons it needs for its defense.
The resolution said: "We are hope.
ful that American statesmanship,
recognizing the importance of the
sovereign State of Israel for the
Western World, will not permit the
Soviet Union and its client states
to endanger the stability and the
future of the Middle East."
In another resolution the ZOA
convention "condemned the volun-

willful violations of the cease fire
by the Arab states and the parti-
sanship of the resolutions passed
by a biased Security Council."
To fight increased Arab propa-

resolved to embark on a program
