The president of the Inter-
national Ladies Garment
Workers' Union reported that
the officers of the union had
each pledged to volunteer a
week's pay to the Histadrut
and that the rank-and-file of
the 325,000-member union
would be asked to give what-
ever they could.
Other strong statements for
Israel came from scores of
unions.
Messages of support to Is-
rael were issued by statewide

On Saturday, U.S. maritime
unions said they would boy-
cott handling of all cargo and
ships bound for the Soviet
Union unless the Kremlin
halted its aid to the Arabs in
the war. Later, with the war
over, they said the boycott
would be held as scheduled
unless Arab nations continue
oil shipments to the U.S.
The boycott was aimed
primarily at the remainder of
the shipment of U.S. wheat
and corn and the massive
grain deal the administration
negotiated last year.

A group of black trade un-
ionists, in a full-page ad
sponsored by the A. Philip
Randolph Institute in the New
York Times, pledged their
solidarity with Israel.
Describing the Jewish state
as a "society that breathes
the spirit of democracy with-
out which free trade unions
could not exist," the state-
ment appealed to the U.S.
government to provide Israel
with whatever arms it re-
quired to defend itself and
urged the Arab states to sit
down with Israel at the ne-
gotiating table.
Among the signers of the
ad were Detroiters Leonard

ace Sheffield, United Auto-
mobile Workers ; William
Stodghill, Service Employes
International Union; and
Thomas Turner, Metropolitan
District Council; and Albert
Jones of Lansing, United Auto
