The defense minister was presumed to have made clear that unless all parts of the disengagement agreements with Egypt and Syria are ful- filled, little chance existed for adequate negotiations in other areas. (Peres reportedly told lead- ers of the Conference of Presidents of Major Ameri- can Jewish Organizations in New York that the most im- portant element in the de- fense of Israel is world Jew- ry, either through the physi- cal presence of Jews in Is- rael or by their participa- tion in support of Israel.) Meanwhile, legislation to give Congress veto authority over U.S. government agree- ments to deliver nuclear re- actors to foreign countries is expected to be adopted by both houses in the wake of provisional contracts signed with Egypt and Israel.

It was in- troduced by the committee's chairman, Rep. Melvin Price (D. Ill.) and its vice-chair- man, Sen. John Pastore (D.R.I.) The Atomic Energy Corn- mission informed the JTA that its agreements with Egypt and Israel are not identical. Among the differ- ences, a spokesman said, was that deliveries of nuclear fuel would begin to Egypt in Feb- ruary 1980 and to Israel 11 months later, in January 1981. Both contracts call for payment of $39,000,000 spread over 10 years. Egypt made a down pay- ment of $660,000 and Israel $726,000. Both checks were on the Morgan Trust Co., New York. Funding for the remainder of the contracts, it was intimated, will be through the U.S. Export-Im- port Bank. Each country is to receive a 600-megawatt plant with construction to be completed in about eight years. Such a plant, the AEC told JTA, is sufficient to provide electri- cal power for an American city of about 250,000 inhabi- tants. The spokesman told JTA that he did not know of any hidden undertakings or clauses in either agreement. At a hearing by two House Foreign Affairs subcommit- tees, Herbert P. Scoville and Dr. Theodore B. Taylor, for- mer specialists at -the Los Alamos scientific laboratory, said the U.S. should insist that fuel used in plants of Egypt and Israel should be reprocessed outside the Mid- dle East. Reprocessing yields plutonium used in a tomc weapons. Rabbi to Speak to Pro-Israel Sect in Japan NEW YORK—Rabbi Wolfe Kelman, executive vice presi- dent of the Rabbinical As- sembly, the largest rabbinical organization in the world,.has been invited to address the annual summer conference of Makuya, a Christian sect in Japan that believes that the state of Israel is the fulfill- ment of biblical prophecy. It marks the first time that an American Jewish religious leader has been invited to appear before this Japanese group whose annual confer- ence attracts some 10,000 members. Rabbi Kelman, who is scheduled to arrive in Japan Tuesday, will participate in the Japanese religious con- ference which will be held in Izu from July 22-25. He also will confer with the leaders of the compara , tively small organized Jew- ish community of Japan, which is headed by. Rabbi Marvin Tokayer, a member of the 1,100-member Rabbini- cal Assembly and a graduate of the Jewish Theological Seminary. In accepting the invitation, Rabbi Kelman did so "as dis- ciple of his revered teacher and master, the late Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, who is known and loved by so many of Makuya." The Makuya (which is the Japanese word for taber- nacle) annually sends some of its outstanding students to Israel in accordance with its belief that the establishment of Israel is living evidence of the fulfillment of scrip- tural testimony. Watch your step—a friend in need is not necessarily a friend when not in need. The Survival of Israel From Moses Maimonides' Epistle to the Jews in Yemen, 1172. "The antagonism of the nations toward us is due to our unique position as a peo- ple of faith. This is why their kings oppress us, to visit upon us hatred and hbstility. But the Creator endowed us with confidence, so that whenever persecution or fury against Israel arises, it will surely be endured. The power of the kings presses down upon us and they exercise a hard rule over us; they per- secute and torment us with oppressive decrees, but they cannot destroy us or wipe out our name. "Do you not know, breth- ren, that in the time of the wicked Nebuchadnezzar, Is- rael was forced to worship foreign gods, and o n 1 y Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah were rescued? But in the end, this king and his authority were destroyed and truth was restored. The same happened in the time of the Second Temple, when the wicked dynasty of Seleu- cus came into power and per- secuted Israel in order to destroy its religion. The Syrians forced Israel to dese- crate •the Sabbath and the covenant of circumcision and publicly to renounce belief in God. This oppression lasted fifty-two year's, and then God annihilated both the govern- ment and the religion of the enemy. "God promised us through his prophets that we shall never perish and that we shall never cease to be a nation of faith. Our life is correlated with the existence of the Lord. As it is said: Tor I the Lord change not, therefore ye, 0 sons of Jacob, are not consumed.' And Moses, our teacher, said in the Torah: 'And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them and to break My cov- enant with them; for I am the Lord their God.' "Therefore, brethren, be strong and of good courage. If persecutions arise, let them not disconcert you. Let not the mighty hand of the enemy and the weakness of our nation frighten you. These events are but trial and proof of your faith and your love. By holding firm to the law of truth in times like these, you prove that you belong to those of Jacob's seed who fear God and who are named "the remnant whom the Lord shall call.' "
