newsmen about the charges
against him, Schroeder said "I
did not come to Israel to discuss
my biography. There is nothing
in my paXt activity — public or
personal — that could prevent me
from accepting the invitation of
the Israeli government to visit
IsraeL"
Schroeder has been accused of
refusing to send gas masks to Is-
rael during the tense period prior
to the 1967 Six-Day War. He was
then defense minister. He ex-

Kahane Says $45,000 Bail Was Put up
by Colombo; JDL Head in Israel
LONDON (JTA) — Rabbi "Meir
Kahane, chairman of the Jewish
Defense League, disclosed here
that the reputed racketeer Jo-
seph Colombo Sr. put up $45,000
bail for him last May after he was
arraigned at a Federal District
Court in New York on charge's
of conspiracy to violate the 1968
Federal Gun Control Act.
"But for him (Colombo) I would
not have been here; and I could
not have gone to Israel," said the
38-year-old Kahane, who arrived
here from New York Monday for
a brief visit as the guest of the
Committee for the Release of So-
viet Jewish Prisoners.
Rabbi Kahane was questioned
by newsmen on the JDL's alli-
ance with Colombo, president of
the Italian-American Civil Rights
League.
Rabbi Kahane said, "Our only
yardstick is what is good for the
Jews, -and this alliance is good
for the Jews. We must deal with
the poor among the Americans,
and with the various ethnic groups
and with some groups which are
not the darlings of the establish-
ment."
Rabbi Kahane said he would
establish JDL headquarters in
Jerusalem, dividing his time be-
tween Israel and the U.S. He
would try_ to act as a bridge be-
tween various groups and sections
of Israeli society, but would not
engage in politics there, he said.
Asked if he would -institute
training in the use of arms for Is-
raeli Jews as he has done in the
U.S., Rabbi Kahane replied,
"Never, never, this is done by
Zahal (Israel's armed forces) in
the most efficient manner."
In New York, seven Jewish
Defense League members have
been arrested and indicted on
charges of conspiring to bomb the
offices of the Soviet export-import
agency, Amtorg Trading Corpora-
ton, April 2.
Two of the . defendants also
were charged with attempting
to bomb the Soviet Mission's
estate in Glen Cove, Li., June 12.
Police found the bomb on the
estate before it could go off, but
a bomb damaged the office of the
Soviet trade agency.
