No Contradiction Between Nixon, Jackson, Says Stein
(Continued from Page 22)
This is an internal political
matter for U.S. Jews and
their representa•ives," Stein
said.
He described the meetings
between President Nixon, his
national security adviser,
Henry Kissinger, and top
U.S. Jewish leaders during
the past two weeks as im-
portant because they took
place. Stein said that Mr.
Nixon has not demanded that
American Jews withdraw

support from the Jackson
Amendment.
Stein said that since the
Jackson Amendment would
not be voted on until next
fall at the earliest, there was
no paradox in American
Jewry's support for both the
President's policy and Jack-
son.
He said he hoped that by
next fall Mr. Nixon and Kiss-
inger would be able to ac-
complish results for Soviet
Jews through their continu-
ing efforts.
Stein issued a written
statement signed by himself
and by two other American
Jewish leaders who met with
Dr, Kissinger in Washing-
ton—Max Fisher, past presi-
dent of the Council of Jewish
Federations a n d Welfare
Funds, and Richard Maass,
chairman of the National
Conference for Soviet Jewry.
Long Co-Sponsors
Jackson Amendment
WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Sen. Russell Long (D.La)
agreed to co-sponsor the
Jackson Amendment to the
U.S.-Soviet trade pact, bring-
ing to 77 the number of sen-
ators opposed to most-fav-
ored-nation treatment for the
Soviet Union as long as it re-
stricts its citizens' right to
emigrate.
Long, chairman of the Sen-
ate Finance 'Committee, was
not among the original co-
sponsors of the measure
when it was introduced last
October.
His adherence to it now is
regarded as significant in its
timing and importance to the
legislative process of the
Jackson Amendment. With
Long behind it, the legisla-
tion appears virtually as-
sured of passage by the Fin-
ance Committee to the Sen-
ate floor for consideration by
the full Senate.
In a powerful renewal of
congressional pressure for
White House insistence on
free emigration f o r Soviet
citizens including Jews, Sen.

Henry M. Jackson (D.Wash.)
and Representatives Wilbur
Mills (D.Ark.) and Charles
A. Vanik (D.Ohio) assured
the National Conference on
Soviet Jewry that there is
no change whatsoever in
their feelings about the legis-
lation they have introduced
to bring about relief for pros-
pective immigrants.
Mills, in fact, re-enforced
his support for the Mills-
Vanik Bill which he himself
had introduced in the House
by personally sponsoring yes-
terday the addition of three
more Congressmen to his
bill. Reps. Joseph J. Mara-
ziti R.N.J.), James Mann
(D.S.C.) and Edward Biester
(•.Pa.) joined the list of
sponsors bringing their num-
ber to 279—close to two-
thirds of the 435 members
of the House.
In Miami Beach, the third-
ranking Republicon in the
House of Representatives
called on Congress to "keep
the pressure on" the Soviet
Union by withholding pas-
sage of the U.S.-USSR trade
treaty until Moscow repeals
the "diploma tax" on Jews
seeking to emigrate.
Rep. John B. Anderson of
Illinois, chairman of the
House Republican Confer-
ence, told a Zionist Organi-
zation of America dinner
that "we must make certain,
as certain as we can," that
the Soviets repeal the tax
and "that they do not try to
reinstitute it later."
The seven-term congress-
man, who addressed the an-
nual dinner of the ZOA's
Southeast Region, also urged
that the U.S. press for a
trans-Canadian oil pipeline
to the Midwest as a step to
help forestall the Arab states
using their oil resources for
"political blackmail" on- Am-
erican foreign policy in the
Middle East.
Kissinger-Brezhnev Talks
Shrouded in Secrecy
NEW YORK (JTA) — An
official Soviet news blackout
shrouds the ongoing talks be-
tween Dr. Henry Kissinger
and Leonid I. Brezhnev in a
country retreat outside Mos-
cow.
But while there has been
no official word regarding
the broad range of topics
under review by President
Nixon's national security ad-
viser and the Soviet Com-
munist Party leader, there
are indications that the two
diplomats are diScussing the
Peronist Regime
Not Expected to
Be Bad for Jews
BUENOS AIRES (ZINS)—
When the Peronists achieved
victory in the last elections in
Argentina, the question was
asked whether this is "good
for Jews".
Judging by the policies of
the last Peronist regime
(1945-1955), observers expect
that the new government will
not 'be bad for Jews. During
the last Peronist regime, the
Jews of Argentina enjoyed a
relatively quiet life. Peron
himself had a great deal of
sympathy from the Jewish
community, despite the fact
that the Jewish community
as a whole was not counted
as a supporter of Peron.
Argentina, in the days of
Peron, exhibited less anti-
Semitism than it does today.
There are 500,000 Jews, the
largest Jewish community in
all of Latin America.
effect the USSR's policy on
Jewish emigration is having
on the East West Trade Act
now pending in Congress.
As the talks entered into
their third day, Izvestia, the
Soviet government's official
daily, assailed American
circles opposed to expanded
trade with the USSR until it
eliminates its restrictions on
Jewish immigration.
While presenting a gen-
erally optimistic view about
future prospects for U.S.-
USSR trade relations, Iz-
vestia denounced the "mili-
tary and industrial block,
Zionist elements and the ex-
treme right" for blocking
detente.
According to some observ- ,
ers, the attack by the of-
ficial Soviet government or-
gan was an indication that
the Soviet leadership is tak-
ing a hard line on the issue
of East-West trade and hop-
ing to convince the Nixon
administration to find a way
of separating trade talks an–
the issue of most-favored-
nation status from the issue
of emigration.
In a last-minute appeal to
Dr. iKissidger, prior to his
trip, Republican Senate
Leader Hugh Scott pointed
out that "all that could be
done has not been done
either on our side or theirs."
This was in reference to the
activities by both the Nixon
Administation and the Soviet
leadership 'on the emigra-
tion issue.
Expressing himself as "not
entirely satisfied" with the
Soviet relaxation thus far of
the education tax, Scott sent
a personal letter by special
messenger to Dr. Kissinger
to disclose his views in writ-
ing.
In his letter Scott warned
Kissinger that "the Jackson
Amendment still commands
majority support in the Sen-
ate and I suspect in the
House as well in spite of the
well publicized lifting of the
visa tax."
Continuing, Scott stated:
"The only way to defuse it in
the Congress is to obviate the
need for it, and I believe this
can and should be done. I
hope you will make a special
effort to raise this issue."
Liner Docking
on the Sabbath
Brings Protest
TEL AVIV (JTA)—Ortho-
dox Jews protested the dock-
ing of the French liner
France at Haifa on the Sab-
bath by blocking the port
gates.
Several hundred tourists
who disembarked from the
66,000-ton liner were prevent-
ed for a while from boarding
buses for sightseeing tours.
The protesters conducted a
Sabbath service in front of
the gates and then dispersed.
Police were on hand, but no
incidents occurred and no
arrests were made.
The France's arrival at
Haifa made her the largest
passenger liner ever to visit
Israel, a distinction which up
to then belonged to the
slightly smaller British liner
Queen Elizabeth 2. The lat-
ter vessel, which remained
in Israeli waters through In-
dependence Day, sailed for
Ashdod where she was visit-
ed by former Premier David
Ben Gurion.
