Legislator Warns of Plot on Israel

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Congressman John M. Mur-
phy's office told the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency that a
formal acknowledgment from
the White House had been re-
ceived in reply to a letter the
New York Democrat sent to
President Nixon Jan. 12 in-
forming him of a terrorist
plot to crash a hijacked air-
liner into the heart of Tel
Aviv.

The letter urged "the
United States to take the
world initiative to eliminate
air piracy."
According to an aide to
Murphy, the White House re-
ply thanked the congressman
for his letter and promised
that "it will be brought to
the attention of the Presi-
dent."
Murphy wrote Nto Nixon
that his knowledge of the
terrorist plot was "based on
intelligence I have had made
available to me from official
U.S. and international govern-
ment sources."
Ile said "The plot involves
the purposeful crashing of a
hijacked airliner into down-
town Tel Aviv."
The legislator noted that
such a disaster, apart from
its human toll, would lead to
a cessation of commercial air
services around the world in-
asmuch as the International
Air Line Pilots Association
has decided "to call a world-
wide suspen_sion of service
on the occasion of the next
serious crime of violence
against civil aviation "
Murphy has introduced leg.
islation that would authorize
the President to institute a
boycott of air services against
nations that fail to extradite
or punish aerial hijackers and
to deny landing rights to the
aircraft of countries that pro-
vide sanctuary for sky pi-
rates.
The Murphy bill also re-
quires the President to insti-
a secondary boycott
tute
against any country that con-
tinues to do air business with
an offending nation and to
apply sanctions against any
nation used by terrorists as
a base of operations, training
ground or sanctuary.
Syndicated columnist Jack
Anderson reported Jan. 12
that a Black September plot
"to hijack an airliner and
crash it into the heart of bust-
ling Tel Aviv" was discov-
ered by "intelligence agen-
cies which monitor the secret
radio bands used by the Arab
terrorists."

The same sources,
wrote, intercepted "similar
ominous messages" shortly
before the Lod Airport mas-
sacre of May 30 and the mur-
der of Israeli Olympic ath-
letes at Munich last Sept. 5.
The earlier messages were
vague about where the ter-
rorists would strike but the
latest ones were "more spe-
cific," Anderson stated.
The State Department ex-
p- essed disappointment over
the International Civil Avia-
tion Organization's rejection
of a proposal to take action
against countries that refuse
to cooperate in international
agreements against civil avi-
ation violence, including sky-
jacking.
Meeting in Montreal, the
ICAO's legal committee rep-
resenting 58 nations voted
that recommendations - for ac-
tion against offending na-
tions would be allowed, but
ruled out ICAO investigation
of alleged offenders or joint
action against them.
State Department spokes-
man Simone S. Poulain said
the U.S. was "disappointed
with the course of the vot-
ing." She noted, however,
that the ICAO meeting has a
week to go, and said "We
will continue to work for a
positive outcome."
The proposals rejected in
Montreal were included in a
U.S.-Canadian program for
action which calls for strong
measures against nations re-
fusing to assist in suppress-
ing violence against civil
aviation.
In Bonn, West German
President Gustav Heinemann
called on all governments to
"put an end to terrorism."

In a speech to ambassadors
accredited in Bonn, he said,
"All governments are faced
with the task, not only of
countering such violent acts,
but of getting to their roots
and removing them."
One of the three Arab as-
sassins responsible for mur-
dering Israeli Olympic team
members last September is
again in Western Europe.
West German security serv-
ices have been tipped off by
Israeli intelligence.
As a result, security checks
on Arabs have been tighten
ed even more at West Ger-
man airports in recent days.

All passengers have been
requested not to carry lug-
gage belonging to strangers
as a favor. Frontier control
posts have also been alerted.
Meanwhile, Austrian po-
lice armed with submachine-
guns and directed by helicop-
ters combed the woods near
a Jewish immigrant transit
center on the outskirts of
Vienna in search of Arab ter-
rorists believed planning an
attack on the center.
A telephone report from
Vienna said the manhunt was
focused around the Schenau
Palace where Jewish emi-
grants from the Soviet Union
are quartered while awaiting
transportation to Israel,

The action followed the ar-
rest of three armed Arabs
who arrived in Vienna with
forged Israeli passports.
The Arabs admitted their
passports were forgeries but
refused to give police their
real names, countries or ori-
gin or to say who sent them
to Austria.

TEL AVIV (JTA)—Finance
Minister Pinhas Sapir said
that Israelis are contributing
less than they can afford to
meet the nation's social
needs, despite their heavy
burden of taxes.

However, he said, there
were 35 Israeli families who
recently contributed IL 100
million (525,000,000) for vari-
ous social purposes.

Sapir, addressing a meet-
ing of the Women's Interna-
tional Zionist Organization
which marked the opening of
the 1973 WIZO campaign,
noted that the women's or-
ganization would soon open
400 day care centers permit-
ting 20,000 mothers to go to
work.

He noted that WIZO also
planned kindergartens for
children age 3-5 and said
these activities were essen-
tial because Israel needed a
Larger work force.

Jewish Poor
in New York
Total 272,000

NEW YORK — The Feder-
ation of Jewish Philanthropies
estimates that the Jewish
poor in this city number
272,000 — or 140,000 families.
A research team from the
New School for Social Re-
search conducted the study,
which discloses that 15.1 per
cent of the Jewish population
of 1,800,000 in the city are
poor or near poor, with in-
comes under $6,000 for a
family of four.
About half of these are
aged. Forty per cent are
families of three to five per-
sons.
According to the federation,
the needs of the Jewish work-
ing poor are housing, recrea-
tional and social programs
and cultural programs with
a Jewish orientation, scholar-
ship funds for Jewish youths
and family counseling.
The study was supervised
by Dr. Blanche Bernstein,
director of research for the
New School's Center for New
York City Affairs.
