Policy Study Slaps Kissinger

BOSTON (JTA) — United
States policy in the Middle
East is based on an illusory
detent with the Soviet Union,
an important policy evalua-
tion committee of Boston's
Jewish community charged
in the first of a series of Mid- .
east study papers prepared
for the Joint Mideast Policy
Committee of the Combined

Jewish Philanthropies of
Greater Boston and the Jew-
ish Community Council of
Metropolitan Boston.
The group charged that
U.S. political investment in
detente requires a quick res-
olution of the Arab-Israel
conflict to avoid further
Soviet - American confronta-
tion.

Litvinov Will Fight for Human
Rights in USSR While in U.S.

By YITZHAK RABBI
JTA Staff Writer
NEW YORK (JTA)—Pavel
Litvinov, the Soviet Jewish
dissident who arrived in the
United States Monday night,
said Tuesday that he plans
to continue to act for the de-
fense of human rights in the
Soviet Union while living
here and hopefully teaching
physics.
Speaking at a press con-
ference sponsored by the
Khronika Press, described
as a nonprofit publishing
house concerned with human
rights in the USSR, Litvinov,
the grandson of Maxim M.
Litvinov, Soviet foreign min-
ister under Stalin, said that

PAVEL LITVINOV

he chose to live in the U.S.
because it is a country of
immigrants and here he
could best identify himself
as a Russian.
Asked if he considered
emigrating to Israel, Litvi-
nov said: "It is a little diffi-
cult to answer. I am of Jew-
ish descent, but I was raised
on Russian culture and I
think of myself as a Rus-
sian."
Litvinov, who spoke Rus-
sian during the one-hour
press conference, admitted,
however, that in his applica-
tion to leave the USSR he
said he wanted to immigrate
to Israel. "It was a pretext
to come here," he explained.
His immigration to the . U.S.
was sponsored by United
Hias Service.
Litvinov spoke in detail
about his friend Vitaly Rubin,
the Soviet Sinologist and
Jewish activist who, accord-
ing to him, asked three years
ago for permission to emi-
grate and as a result has
been jobless for the last two
years.
He said that he plans to
remain and live in the U.S.
even though he hopes to re-
turn some day to the USSR.
Asked about the Jackson

Amendment. He said he has
"deep sympathy" for Sen.
Henry Jackson (D. Wash.)
and other congressmen and
said he does not consider
this an intervention into in-
ternal affairs of the Soviet
Union.
Litvinov arrived Monday
night at Kennedy Airport
with his wife Maya and their
4-year-old daughter, Larissa,
and Dmitri, his wife's 12-
year-old son by an earlier
marriage. He said he has not
decided where he will even-
tually live and teach in the
United States.

`No Jewish Issues'
in S. Africa Election

JOHANNESBURG (J T A)
—In view of some items that
have appeared in the press
trying to persuade or dis-
affect Jewish voters in con-
nection with the coming
South African general elec-
tion, David Mann, chairman,
South African Jewish Board
of Deputies, issued the follow-
ing press statement:
"The country is now in the
throes of an election cam-
paign. It should not be neces-
sary to reiterate that Jews,
like all other citizens, par-
ticipate in this election as
South Africans, and not as
members of a particular com-
munity or religious denomi-
nation.
"There are no 'Jewish is-
sues' in this election and it
is wrong for any newspaper,
political party, or candidate
to suggest the contrary. I
make an appeal to all con-
cerned neither to employ
such tactics nor to be in-
fluenced by them."

Sing, 0 heavens, for the
Lord has done it, shout, 0
depths of the earth: break
into singing, 0 mountains,
0 forest, and every tree in
it! For the Lord has re-
deemed Jacob, and is reveal-
ing his glory in Israel.
—Isaiah 44:23.

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Openly critical of Secretary
of State Henry A. Kissinger's
diplomatic moves, the policy
paper accused Kissinger of
making an understanding
with President Sadat of
Egypt to secure an Israeli
withdrawal from occupied
territory without direct sub-
stantive negotiations between
the belligerents without
true peace or recognition by
the 'Arab states of Israel's
sovereign rights.
"The secretary of state's
diplomatic style is one of
ambiguities, secret under-
standings and closed sum-
mits—capable in his hands of
achieving some spectacular
short-terin results. But it is
not a diplomacy which builds
genuine public understand-
ing of the issues — without
which a democracy like
America cannot exercise the
power at its command, nor
conduct an effective long-
term foreign policy," the
paper declared.
The paper presented a grim
outlook for the Geneva nego-
tiations, claiming, "The pres-
ent outlook allows little opti-
mism for the Geneva negotia-
tions, if they do in fact take
place. While Israel wants a
secure and permanent settle-
ment with her neighbors, the
Arab states regard the drene-
va proceedings primarily as
the political continuation of
the October War.
"Russia is completely com-
mitted to backing all Arab
demands—while the U.S. is
primarily concerned with de-
tente, or at least its illusion."
The policy paper noted that
for the Geneva talks to serve
the cause of peace the USSR
"must abandon (its) deliber-
ate policy of maintaining
and promoting Mideast ten-
sionsi neither the U.S. nor
the Soviet Union should in-
trude, either as advocates or
adversaries into the peace-
making process; the U.S. and
the Soviet Union should
jointly reaffirm, in an open,
public declaration, their
agreement that neither will
commit any combat forces or
nuclear weapons into the
Middle East."
If the two superpowers can
"demonstrate true mutual re-
straint" Geneva could mark
a turning point in Mideast
history and also "mark a. new
beginning for the battered
spirit of detente," the policy
paper declared.

Maass Succeeded in Soviet Jewry Post

NEW YORK — Stanley H.
Lowell was elected chairman
of the National Conference
on Soviet Jewry. A senior
vice president of the Ameri-
can Jewish Congress, he suc_
ceeds Richard Maass, who
served as first chairman of
the National Conference on
Soviet Jewry since its incep-
tion in June 1971. Maass re-
mains a member of the exec-
utive committee.
Lowell serves on the ad-
visory council of the New
York Board of Rabbis and
was chairman of the Greater
New York Conference on
Soviet Jewry.
Testifying Wednesday be-
fore the Senate Finance Com-
mittee on the pending Trade .
Reform Act, Lo well ex-
pressed t h e overwhelming
support of the Jewish com-
munity and its supporters for
the Jackson-Mills/Vanik free
dom of emigration provision.
Lowell called the Jackson-
Mills/Vanik legislation "a
realistic and effective form-
ula to employ Amer lc an
economic resources and cap-
abilities in securing the
fundamental a n d interna-

tionally recognized right to
emigrate."
Lowell w a s accompanied
by Sister Margaret Traxler,
co-chairman of the National
Interreligious Task Force on
Soviet Jewry, and by Prof.
Seymour M. Upset of Har-
vard University, a member
of the executive committee
of the Academic Committee
on Soviet Jewry.
Lowell took issue with a
statement by Secretary of
State Henry Kissinger in his
recent testimony before the
same committee. The secre-
tary had asserted that pas-
sage of the freedom of emi-
gration legislation would
bring about the termination
of Soviet Jewish emigration.
Lowell asserted that this is
"questionable" and "carried
the danger of becoming a
self-fulfilling prophecy."

All are warned not to play
the other man's game, but
many get a great deal of
satisfaction trying to deceive
the deceiver.
