The participants instead
adopted the position taken
by the Organization of Afri-
can Unity (OAU) in Kam-
pala, Uganda, last July and
that of the Conference of
Non-Aligned States in
Lima, Peru, in August
which called for increased
pressure to compel Israel to
abide by UN resolutions,
but fell short of demanding
that country's suspension
from the world organiza-
tion.
Meanwhile, Saadun Ha-
madi, Iraq's foreign minis-
ter, urged the expulsion of
Israel from the UN stating
it would be the "right ap-
proach" toward a settle-
ment in the Middle East.

The foreign minister
termed the plight of the
Palestinians "perhaps one
of the supreme cases of in-
justice in the history of
mankind" and added that
"the Zionists have re-
sorted to mass killings to
exterminate the Palestini-
ans."

Israel's permanent repre-
sentative at United Nations,
Chaim Herzog, did not avail
himself of the right to reply.
"I did not want to descend to
the gutter," Herzog said
later.

In a statement outside
the Assembly hall, Herzog
said it did not behoove "a
dictatorship such as Iraq,
which indulges in public
executions in the main
square of Baghdad, to lec-
ture a free democracy such
as Israel on the subject of
humanity."

"It is relevant to recall
that of the ancient Jewish
community in Iraq, which
numbered 160,000, hardly
any have remained today,"
he added.
Despite the Iraqi proposal
the Credentials Committee
of the United Nations Gen-
eral Assembly approved the
formal credentials of the de-
legations to the current 30th
session of the Assembly,
including that of Israel.
The only protest against
Israel was a token one by Li-
bya which expressed its
"strongest reservation on
the credentials of the Zion-
ist delegation."

Meanwhile, Israeli For-
eign Minister and Deputy
Premier Yigal Allon de-
clared in a major policy
address to the General
Assembly that his nation
was "ready and willing"
to engage in peace nego-
tiations with any and all of
its neighbor states, that
"Israel is in favor of any
mechanism which will ad-
vance the process of nego-
tiations between the par-
ties to the conflict" and
that it is prepared, even
before peace is achieved,
to consult with its neigh-
bors to end the "senseless
competition" of the Middle
East arms race and to
reach agreement with
them to make the Middle
East a nuclear-free zone.

Allon declared that "the
government of Israel is
ready and willing to enter
into peace negotiations with
Syria without prior condi-
tions as called for by Reso-
lution 338 at any place and
at any time" even though
Syria has repeatedly made
statements rejecting "the
whole concept of a genuine
peace treaty with Israel."
He said Israel supports
the Geneva peace conference
and believes it can be recon-
vened whenever the parties
are ready for it following
adequate preparations. He
said that Israel is also pre-
pared to give "most earnest
consideration" to Secretary
of State Henry A. Kissin-
ger's proposal for informal,
multi-Israel consultations
on the Middle East.
The Israeli leader said his
country was fully aware of
the Palestinian problem and
that "it is self evident that
genuine peace in the Middle

East must include a just
and constructive solution
for the Palestine Arab prob-
lem." However, he said,
such a solution demands a
change of attitude in the
Arab world.

Allon issued a strong
warning that the Middle
East is being swamped by
new and sophisticated mil-
itary hardware "such as it
has never known in all its
long history."

He said the problem of
arms control in the Middle
East is real and urgent and
that while Israel is forced to
participate in this
"senseless competition" it is
ready "at any time, even
before peace is made, to con-
sult with its neighbors on
measures to limit the arms
race . . . without materially
affecting the relative defen-
sive capacity of any of the
parties to the consulta-
tions."
Allon said Israel also sup-
ports the proposal for a nu-
clear free zone in the Mid-
east and is ready to ne-
gotiate with its neighbors
to reach an agreement. He
said Israel emphasized ne-
gotiations, contrary to the
Arab demand that the issue
be settled by correspond-
ence through the secretary
general of the UN.
Allon reviewed the 30
years of the existence of the
United Nations, its aims
and its achievements, but he
accused the world organiza-
tion of following a "hypo-
critical and dangerous
course" in its attitude to-
ward Israel.

He
assailed
the
"mounting of a despicable
attack on Zionism by asso-
ciating it with abhorrent
political concepts." Allon
contended that anti-Zion-
ism was a euphemism for
anti-Semitism and
charged that "subscribing
to a resolution condemn-
ing Zionism means an en-
dorsement of anti-Semi-
tism and legitimization of

aggression against Is-
rael."

It also was reported that
the Soviet Union stands for
reconvening the Geneva
peace conference on the
Middle East with the partic-
ipation of all parties con-
cerned, including the Pales-
tine Liberation Organi-
zation.
In a major policy speech
at the 30th session of the
United Nations General
Assembly, Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei A. Gro-
myko declared that "to es-
tablish a just and lasting
peace in the Middle East in
the interests of all states of
the area and people inhabit-
ing it, it is necessary to
withdraw Israeli forces
from all Arab territories
occupied by them in 1967; to
insure the legitimate rights
of th Arab people of Pales-
tine, including their right to
establish their own state;
and to guarantee the rights
of all the countries of the
Middle East to independent
development."
Gromyko said that as
long as those crucial prob-
lems are left unsolved there
will be no headway in the
Middle East.
Herzog, meanwhile, de-
clared that despite the hos-
tility toward Israel in the
General Assembly he does
not feel alone because he
knows that behind him is
the heroism of the Israeli
people and the support of
the "great American Jewish
community." He praised the
effectiveness of American
Jewish leaders.
Herzog spoke to some 100
persons, many of them lead-
ers of American Jewish or-
ganizations, at a luncheon
in the "Sukka in the Sky,"
on the roof of the 50-story
Grace Building in midtown
Manhattan. This is the
fourth year the sukka called
"the world's highest," has
been erected on the building
owned by the firm of Benja-
min Swig, Jack D. Weiler
and Robert H. Arnow.

Timetable Result of Geneva
Talks; Terrorists Pose Threat

JERUSALEM (JTA) — A
timetable for implementing
the provisions of the Israeli-
Egyptian Sinai accord was
disclosed here last Tuesday
by Dr. Meir Rosenne, legal
adviser to the Foreign Min-
istry who is a member of the
Israeli working team that
has been negotiating with
the Egyptians in Geneva.
He said the timetable
called for Israel to turn over
the Abu Rodeis oilfields to
Egypt in the latter part of
November. He noted, how-
ever, in a radio interview,
that the agreements
reached at Geneva would
not go into effect until the
U.S. Congress approved the
posting of American techni-
cians to man surveillance
stations in the Sinai.
Dr. Rosenne said the ne-
gotiations in Geneva have
been completed to the satis-
faction of both parties. He
said that the Israeli and
Egyptian armies would oc-
cupy
their new lines in Sinai

five weeks after the final
signing of the protocols
worked out in Geneva. He
said the joint Israeli-Egyp-
tian military committee
would begin to function
shortly after the signing.

The talks continued
amid tight security follow-
ing reports that Palesti-
nian terrorists were on
their way to Switzerland
to try to stop the signing of
the accords.

Reports of possible ter-
rorist attempts to sabotage
the agreement came from
Vienna where a state of
alert was ordered at the air-
port.
Police have also been
alerted at Amsterdam's
Schipol Airport and border
patrols throughout Holland
were similarly alerted.
Reports from Amsterdam
said international police
authorities have issued
warnings to all European
police forces about possible
terrorist attempts to reach
Geneva.
