THE DETROIT JEWISH- NEWS Soviet Jews Blame Credits for Trade Pact Failure (Continued from page 1) with Soviet emigration prac- tices and said he looked to the Congress and the Admin- istration to keep their com- mitments concerning the link- age. "I do not believe that the Congress will respond to t h e disappointing Soviet move by abandoning its com- mitment to help bring about the freer movement of people and ideas between east and west, and I expect the Pre- sident and the Secretary of State to stand by their own commitments embodied in the October 18 compromise," Jacjn said. on indicated that the _,$300 lllion ceiling on loans to the Soviet Union can, un- _der existing law, be in- - creased with congressional approval but ue cautioned that "Congress should not abdicate its responsibility to oversee the disposition of U.S. credits, particularly to the country whose policies re- uire us to spend billions of dollars for defense." Jackson said he was issu- ing the statement "to set the record straight" because Secretary Henry Kissinger's Jan. 14 announcement that the Soviet Union had decided of to bring into force the 1972 trade agreement "had given rise to confusion, spec- ulation, and misunderstand- ing: , His own position, Jackson said, is that "genuine de- tente requires freer move- ment of peoples and ideas and not just of machinery and wheat. I continue to be- lieve- that the economic pow- er of the United States should be pressed into the service of human rights, and I continue to believe that the courageous men and women lighting for their freedom in he Soviet Union are worthy of our support. I will not abandon their cause, whether under pressure from the cold-hearted in Moscow or _ the faint-hearted in Wash- ington." Jackson said he would con- tinue to • support expanded trade with the Soviet Union despite its rejection of the trade agreement and fore- saw that ordinary commer- cial trade might well con- tinue to grow. "But the fact is that to the Soviets the '1972 trade agreement was designed to bring not so much of our trade, as our aid—in the form of a huge infusion of American capital at subsidized interest rates," he said. Detailing the history of the trade law since the Jackson- *Kissinger exchange of letters Oct. 8, Jackson said that "r than saying plainly tha Soviets have re- neged; the Administration sought to blame the Congress ---and then to exploit t h e Soviet action to inhibit the Congress from playing its constitutional role in estab- lishing tariff and regulating credits." In New York, the joint U.S.-Soviet Trade and Eco- nomic Council has embarked on a vigorous lobbying ef- fort to increase Export-Im- port Bank credits for the USSR and divorce political from economic issues in trade relations between the two countries. Donald Kendall of the Pepsico Co., American co- chairman of the joint council, said that "the breakdown of the 1972 trade agreement" was "only a temporary set- back." He said the Ford Ad- ministration is "pledged to introduce and support vigor- ously new legislation which we consider an immediate imperative." He claimed that increased exports to the USSR would mean more jobs in America where unemployment is on the rise. He said U.S. De- Cohen and Drachler Appointed Federation Associate Directors (Continued from Page 1) In the past decade, the Federation Apartments for senior citizens at Ten Mile and Greenfield have been built, Prentis Manor has been acquired as an addi- tional facility for the care of the dependent aged, and the Jewish Vocational Serv- ice-Community •Workship has been able to procure larger, more modern facilities. Con- struction of a new Jewish Community Center is now under way at Maple and Drake Roads, with plans for the site which can be utilized eventually by other Federa- tion agencies. Prior to his appointment as assistant director of the Detroit Federation in 1964, Cohen had been executive director of the Jewish Com- munity Council of Spring- field, Massachutetts. He prev- iously was assistant director of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation following an ear- lier affiliation as a member of the campaign and planning staff of Detroit's Federation. Cohen holds degrees from the University of Maryland and the University of Cincin- nati and received his post- graduate social work training at Ohio State University's school or social administra- tion. Drachler, who was raised and educated in Detroit, has been on the Federation staff since 1957. He was super- visor of the Jewish Parents' Institute prior to that date. His assignments at Federa- tion have included the direc- torship of the mercantile and the real estate and building trades divisions and the supervision of the education and community relations di- visions and the committee on capital needs. partment of Commerce fig- ures estimated that every $15,000 worth of exports generated one job. Kendall also warned that the U.S. would be losing valuable Soviet business to France, West Germany and Japan which, he said, were already far more generous in their credit to Moscow.

The document, prepared as part of- the Ministry's gen- eral plan for a national popu- lation of four million by early 1980s, said there was a steady Jewish emigration from Gali- lee. It cited as an example Ki- ryat Shemona, founded in 1953, in which some 80,000 persons were settled. In 1965, however, its population was only 15,000. Kiryat Shemona, near the Lebanese border, has been the target of terro- rist attacks in the past year. The Interior Ministry re- ported that many Jewish youths leave their home towns in Galilee, especially after completing military ser- vice, while Arab residents show a much higher degree of attachment to their home 'villages. The latest figures show that Arabs constitute 49 percent of Galilee's popu- lation.
