JWV Urges Action
for Disabled Veterans
• Local Jewish war veterans are
urging the public to write Presi-
dent Nixon on behalf of hospitaliz-
ed Vietnam veterans who require
costly medical personnel and equip-
ment, yet whose rebabiliation is
jeopardized by adminis tr a tion
spending cuts.
In an appeal to fellow veterans.
Bale Post pointed out that there
are 289,000 Vietnam wounded, in-
cluding amputees and paraplegics,
many of whom will remain hospi-
talized for the rest of their lives.
The equjpment and personnel
they' require. would have been
covered in a 1184,000,000 Veter-
ans' Administration allocation..
However, "In response to the ad-
ministration call to cut spend-
lug, the VA cut out this entire
amount with the stroke of the
pen.
"Both houses of Congress passed
legislation forcing the VA to spend
at least $105,000,000 for the pur-
poses mentioned above. The Presi-
dent vetoed this act of Congress,
and for several months there has
been no further action . . . Will
you help override this presidential
veto?"
The appeal concluded, "This has
nothing to do with your feelings
about the Vietnam War—pro and
con. This only has to do with your
feeling for suffering humanity and
your sentiment on justice."
Hits Airing of Views
by Leila Khaled on CBS
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Jew-
ish War Veterans in a letter to
the Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
tem protested its permitting Leila
Khaled to "justify her criminal
behavior with distortions and lies"
on its nationally telecast "Sixty
Minutes" program.
"At the very least," wrote Na-
tional Commander Albert Schloss-
berg, "CBS should have granted
equal time on the same program
for w refutation and solid fact."
Miss Khaled participated In the
successful hijacking of a TWA
jet to Damascus in September,
1901 and in an abortive attempt
to hijack an El Al jet over
Britain Sept. 6.
In an interview, taped at head-
quarters of the Popular Front for
the Liberation of Palestine in
Beirut, she claimed that the wave
of hijackings in September, which
made some 300 airline passengers
and crew members hostages of
Palestinian terrorists, was intend-
ed to forestall the Jarring peace
talks.
She claimed that in that respect
the hijackings were successful even
though her own attempt to take
over an Israeli plane was foiled.
Miss Khaled, who appeared in
uniform and spoke heavily accent-
ed English, denounced U. S. aid
to Israel and referred to that coun-
try as "the 52nd state."
Schlossberg said in his letter,
"To permit Khaled to perform her
historionics on free air time was
to mock an agonized world's hor-
rified reaction to the deadly antics
of a gang of hoodlums dedicated
to continuous bloodshed in the Mid-
dle East."

tive efforts. This partnership has produced a New Society based on the principles of Social Jus-
