She told the annual meet-
ing of the New York Chap-
ter of the American Jewish
Committee at the Plaza
Hotel that this must be done
to convince Egypt that the
U.S. is not wavering in its
support for Israel.
Noting news reports that
Sadat plans to ask Ford for
funds to pay off Egypt's $47
billion debt to the Soviet
Union, Ms. Abzug said if
this was true it would be "a
new definition of chutzpah."
Ms. Abzug charged that
the Ford Administration
has labelled Israel as in-
transigent and declared
that it is time the Adminis-
tration began pressuring
Egypt to take steps toward
peace.

Archbishop Says He Backs Israel
NEW YORK (JTA) — An
American Catholic leader
declared that "The right of
Israel to exist as a sovereign
state with secure bounda-
ries is clear and needs no
further explanation," but
added that "The Palestinian
Arabs must-have a voice in
any negotiations" because "
a basic human right of any
group is that no settlement
in a matter which affects
them so directly and inti-
mately may be imposed on
them."
Those remarks were
made by Archbishop Joseph
L. Bernardin, president of
the National Conference of
Catholic Bishops, and Arch-
bishop of Cincinnati, who
was guest of honor and prin-
cipal speaker at a dinner
reception held this week by
the American Jewish Com-
mittee and attended by
nearly 100 national Jewish
and Christian leaders.
Archbishop Bernardin
also said that "Roman
Catholics should strive to
understand and respect
the religious significance
of the link between the
Jewish people and the land
of Israel."
While declaring that the
persecution and harassment
of Soviet Jews was "a viola-
tion of human rights which
has a very special character
and cannot be ignored by
silence," the Roman Catho-
lic leader also urged that op-
position to the persecution
of Soviet Jews "be broad-
ened to include all people
whose human rights are
being violated, not only in
Russia but elsewhere."
