Congress Urged to Hike Aid for Israel

assistance for Israel at $250,-

ed by Israel—instead of the
$50,000,000 recommended by
the administration.
The administration's For-
eign Assistance Act includes
$300,000,000 in military
credits for Israel. Kenen sug-
gested that $100,000,000 of
this be in the form of grants.
Kenen told the committee

Jewish Organizations, which

had a similar authorization
from the American Jewish
Committee.
OIPAC also supported a

help resettle Soviet Jews—a
measure voted by the Senate
last week.
Kenen said that since he
war, Israel's arms procure-
ment requests totaled more
than $3,000,000,000, exceed-

by Congress last fall.
Because the UN has been
unable to halt terrorists out-

Shemona and Ma'alot, Israel
had to maintain armed re-

said Kenen.
Kenen noted the "anomal-

BUDAPEST '(JTA) — The

ored the memory of those
who were deported to Ber-

ing World War II.
In a special ceremony held
in Budapest's second largest

and although "in our nation

He called attention to the
"miserly" donations of the
wealthy Arab oil states to
UNRWA and UNICEF and
the drought-stricken African
Sahel, whose plight has been
aggravated by high oil prices,
and he contrasted the readi-
ness of the Arabs to spend
huge sums to destroy Israel
with their indifference to the
condition of the Arab refu-
gees.
`Suez Canal Should Be Open
to Israeli Flag Ships'
WASHINGTON (ZINS) —
A move is gathering force in
the Senate to make Ameri-
can aid to Egypt dependent
on Cairo's opening the Suez
Canal to flag ships of all na-
tions equally, meaning Is-
rael — according to column-
ists Evans and Novak.
Actually, Israel has pri-
vately told the U.S. it will
accept Egyptian agreement
to permit Israeli cargoes
(but not Israeli flag ships)
through the canal. Egyptian
President Sadat has given
private assurances of that.
But if—according to the
columnists — "the strongly
pro-Israel Congress attached
free passage for Israeli flag
ships, the powerful pro-Israel
lobby here would scarcely
oppose it."
If such an amendment ac-
tually denied future U.S. aid
to Egypt without a Cairo
pledge to permit Israeli flag
ships to traverse the Canal,
Egypt would never agree.
That could sour the Washing-
ington-Cairo romance, ac-
cording to the columnists.

Pledges Better Aid
to Jewish Poor
NEW YORK (JTA)—Rabbi
David Haymovitz, director of
the office of special projects
of the city's social services
department said that a mara-
thon meeting last week with
a wide variety of representa-
tives of Jewish organizations
was the first in a series of
fact-finding meetings to en-
able his office to formulate
recommendations for better
service to the Jewish poor,
particularly the aged.
The almost seven-hour
meeting was arranged after
charges were made by San-
ford Solender, executive vice
president of the New York
Federation of Jewish Phil-
anthropies, that the Jewish
poor, particularly hasidic
Jews, were being ignored by
anti-poverty agencies and
were being harassed at wel-
fare centers by other minor-
ity groups who resented their
presence.
Max Waldgeir, first dep-
uty commissioner of the
social services department,
who attended the meeting as
an observer, had acknowl-
edged several days earlier
on Victor Riesel's WEVD
"Talk of New York" program
that Jews, especially hasidic
Jews, "don't know how to
navigate in the system," but
a d d e d, "That is being
changed."
