Cabinet Officers Charged of Failure to Enforce U.S. Anti-Boycott Policy 1/// . DR. MERVIN VERBIT Stone, chairman and moder- ator; "Freedom of Choice: Changing Patterns in Jew- ish Family Life," with speakers Rabbi Irwin Groner of Cong. Shaarey Zedek and Samuel Lerner, executive director• of the Jewish Family and Chil- dren's Service and the Re- settlement Service; Helen Shevin, chairman and mod- erator; and "Freedom To Be Me: An Experiential Workshop in Jewish Self Awareness," led by chairman Mildred Gross- man. • 390 ernaple , binningharn 642- 5550 "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?"
