Japan Commercials

NEW YORK (JTA)—Radio sta-

despite charges by the Anti-Defa-

JAL is participating in an anti-
Israel boycott, a spokesman for
the airline's advertising agency

The spokesman, representing the

JAL's six-week spring radio cam-

WMCA's acceptaince of JAL ad-

general counsel; Oscar Cohen, pro-

Belth, public relations director.
During a time-out, the station
aired a JAL commercial, after
which Forster advised Gray that
the airline was boycotting Israel.
Gray expressed surprise at the
information, and promised to take
up the matter of JAL's advertising
campaign with the station's man-
