cott policy of the United

"failed, neglected and re-
fused to implement the 1965
Export Administration Act,
which states in part: It is
the policy of the United
States to oppose restrictive
trade practices fostered or
imposed by Foreign coun-
tries against other countries
friendly to the United
States . . ."
Drinan charged that Mor-
ton and Kleppe had disre-
garded the law by "failing
actively to oppose the re-
strictive trade practices and
boycotts carried out by 14
countries in the Near East
and North Africa against Is-
rael and against American
companies that trade with
Israel."
In charging Morton
with "actions tending to
hinder, impair and frus-
trate the anti-boycott pol-
icy of the United States,"
the suit cites Commerce
Department export regu-
lations (Sec. 369.1) stating
that exporters "are not
legally prohibited from
taking any action . . . that
has the effective of fur-
thering or supporting such
restrictive trade practices
or boycotts."
The Near East and North
African countries referred
to in the complaint as par-
ticipating in restrictive
trade practices or boycotts
against Israel or companies
that trade with Israel are:
Algeria, Bahrain, Iraq, Jor-
dan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Li-
bya, Morocco, Oman, Qatar,
Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tuni-
sia and United Arab Emir-
ate.
All 25 of the House mem-
bers listed as complainants
in the suit are Democrats.
The original sponsors of the
lawsuit are Drinan, Edward
I. Koch (NY), Benjamin S.
Rosenthal (NY), James H.
Scheuer (NY), and Henry A.
Waxman (Cal.).
James J. Blanchard and
William S. Brodhead, both
of Michigan, are among the
25 listed as complainants in
the suit.
Asked why no Republi-
can members are among
the "Washington 25" Dri-
nan theorized that partici-
pation would be embar-
rassing since their own
party members are being
sued. Drinan said that
Republicans were asked to
join but they declined.
Drinan also said the fac-
tor of the Arab boycott
would be a point in the con-
firmation proceedings of
Elliot Richardson as Mor-
ton's successor as Com-
merce Secretary.
Canadian MPs
Fight PLO Visit
TORONTO (JTA) — The
Canadian government has
issued a ministerial permit
to Shafik al Hout, vice-
chairman of the PLO dele-
gation to the UN, to come to
Canada for a series of lec-
tures on the topic, "How
Can Zionism be a Form of
Racism?"
The government policy is
that PLO members are ad-
mitted to Canada if they
have no terrorist record.
Protests were raised in
the Parliament by Liberal
MP Herb Gray of Windsor
West, and Progressive-Con-
servative MP Claude Wag-
ner of St. Hyacinthe.

tions were held outside the
