NEW YORK—When Hilda
Abravaya was engaged for
her first cantorial post, she
reportedly was the only worn-
an cantor in New York State.
She may be the only cantor
to have obtained a post
through a situation-wanted
advertisement in a daily
newspaper.

Arab Oil: A Case
of 'Simple Greed'
By PHIL BAUM
(Baum is associate execu-
tive director of the American
Jewish Congress and director of
its Commission on International
Affairs.)
It is ironic that the oil
weapon should be wielded so
stringently by Saudi Arabia,
with which the United States
has a long-standing bilateral
treaty guaranteeing each
partner most-favored-nation
treatment. This means at
the very least that neither
country will exact of the
other trade terms harsher
than those demanded of any
third power.
This provision is flagrantly
and totally violated by the
current Saudi Arabian em-
bargo against the United
States. So much for the
trustworthiness of treaties
with the Arab countries.
The Arab states cannot
drink their oil; neither can
they eat their dollars. For
their fantastic wealth to have
economic meaning, they must
be able to purchase the goods
and services provided by the
industrial nations. A concert-
ed policy of withholding
those commodities from coun-
tries that embargo or re-
strict fuel production is the
only rational response to the
wildly escalating demands by
Arab rulers.
If these policies are not
adopted shortly, we can look
forward to more extortionate
price increases — preceded,
no doubt, by extortionate pol-
itical demands intended to
disguise and make respect-
able a policy of crude, bla-
tant and apparently limitless
profiteering.

Fight Is On
for Genocide
Convention
Major issues facing the
U.S. Senate when it gets into
session again next week will
include ratification of the UN
Genocide Convention.
Opposition from the Amer-

again delay action on the
major issue outlawing de-

Senator Jacob Javits is
leading the fight for ratifica-
tion of the Genocide Conven-
tion. A national committee
that has been urging immedi-
ate action by the Senate is
