Suite 865 Southfield, Mich. 48075 King Faisal's Gift to Newsmen With Jobert: Protocols PARIS (JTA)—King Fai- sal of Saudi Arfabia has pre- sented the French newsmen who accompanied Foreign Minister Michael Jobert to Jidda with a personal gift— the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and an anthology of anti-Semitic writings. Each of the newsmen in the party—and they included four known to be Jewish— was presented with a small silk basket as a "personal gift" from the king. The anthology, published in 1972, contains 428 extracts from such strange co-authors as Adolf Hitler and Theodor Herzl, A large part is devot- ed to what it claims to be parts of Talmud. The Protocols is introduc- TRY YOUR LUCK IN LAS VEGAS! MANY DATES! HAMILTON, MILLER, HUDSON & FAYNE TRAVEL CORP.

"Le Monde" is the only French paper to reveal pub- licly the contents of the king's gift. The other news- men, apparently acting at the request of the French Foreign Ministry, have not made known to their readers the nature of the two books described by Saudie officials as "the king's favorite litera- ture." Le Monde's Eric Rouleau, known for his articles criti- cal of Israeli policy, was the only member of the French party to be refused a visa by the Saudis. Rouleau described himself as Jewish in his visa application. Four other Jewish news- men either said that they were "without religion" or are believed to have pro- duced forged baptism certi- ficates. When invited by the Sau- dis to send another reporter to replace Rouleau, Le Monde forwarded the name of Nicole Bernheim, who also described herself as Jewish. She, too, was refused a visa. Le Nouvel Observateur, usually critical of Israeli policy, and the Paris Cenutra News Agency (ACP), an- nounced that they were no longer covering Jobert's visit out of solidarity with Rou- leau. Meanwhile, the Saudi Ara- bian Embassy's refusal to grant Rouleau a visa has provoked sharp protests here against Saudi Arabia and Jobert. The International League Against Racism and anti- Semitism (LICA) sharply criticized what it called Jo- bert's "passivity" in the af- fair and expressed its "in- dignation at the foreign minister's failure to protest in the name of France against such racial discrimi- nation." Daniel Mayer, president of the Human Rights League (HRL), said, "As is often the case, their avowed anti- Zionism (Saudi Arabia's) is nothing but the official label they give to their anti-Semi- tism." The National Union of Journalist Syndicates (NUJS), in a written "solemn protest" of the Saudi Ara- bian visa refusal, expressed "its indignation at racist, philosophical or religious pretexts used to prevent the free exercise of the journalist profession and to suppress freedom of expressions." In addition, the NUJS strongly criticized what it termed the "passivity of the Quai d'Orsay (French state department) which did not deem it necessary to protest TEL AVIV (JTA) — The crackle of automatic fire and the heavy blasts of demo- lition charges echoed over both sides of the Euez Canal Tuesday as the first phase of the Israel withdrawal from the west bank of the canal ended. The sounds were not those of war but of disengagement. Soldiers of the Egyptian Third Army Corps, exuber- ant over the lifting of three months' encirclement, fired weapons into the air and shot off fireworks. Israeli forces, heading northeast in trucks and buses painted with signs that read "Goodby Africa" and "We're Going Home" were in a happy mood, too. But the reported promise by the Israeli chief of staff not to engage in a scorched earth policy in the evacuated areas appeared to have been forgotten. The Israelis are making off with huge quantities of Egyptian war booty. But whatever military installa- tions could not be moved— such as fuel dumps were destroyed. Local papers published Tuesday a series of author- ized photographs of demol- ished hangers and concrete abutments at three military airfields handed back to the Egyptians.

Whether these weapons will include Mirage fighter-bomb- ers has never been officially confirmed. In Kuwait Monday, Jobert offered arms and large in- dustrial investments in ex- change for long-term oil de- liveries. Jobert told the Kuwaitis that France was prepared to supply fighter planes, tanks and anti-aircraft missiles free of politic al strings, govern- ment sources saaid. He also expressed France's readiness to participate in petrochemical and oil refine- ry projects in Kuwait in re- turn for guaranteed yearly deliveries of crude and re- fined oil, the sources added.
