to open Israel's northern
borders to Christian refu-
gees from Lebanon. The in-
vitation was broadcast by
Israel's Arabic language
transmitters but as of Mon-
day, no refugees appeared
at any of the border posts.
The move was regarded,
however, as a timely hu-
manitarian gesture and was
taken after top level discus-
sions in response to appeals
from various Christian reli-
gious and secular institu-
tions in Israel. Refugees
from Lebanon could expect
to find shelter in the Maron-
ite Christian communities
in northern Israel.

Meanwhile, Palestinian
terrorists in southern Leba-
non have moved into posi-
tions evacuated by Lebanese
army units in the Hatzbaya
and Litani River regions and
are taking over villages
wholesale by occupying
houses vacated by their in-
habitants who have fled the
region.
Israeli sources learned
of these latest develop-
ments from Lebanese
farmers in the border re-
gion. The Lebanese army
has never been very effec-
tive in the southern area of
the country and with civil
war raging in the north,
the authority of the Beirut
government is virtually nil
there.
Official circles have re-
fused to comment on over-
seas press reports that the
Israeli army was concen-
trating forces on the north-
ern border.
Army movements are
classified information and
are never commented on in
military or government cir-
cles. But with the situation
in Lebanon becoming more
menacing daily, Israeli se-
curity forces have been put
on a high alert.
A Syrian delegation is in
Beirut trying to negotiate a
cease-fire between the war-
ring Moslem and Christian
factions. But they are doing,
so as armored units of the
Syrian commanded Pales-
tine Liberation Army have
been deployed in strategic
areas of the country and the
terrorist grip on the south
has tightened.

Israeli circles have ex-
pressed apprehension that
a Syrian-arranged truce in
the Lebanese civil war
would open the way for
Syrian army officers to
enter Lebanon in the guise
of cease-fire observers.
Israel's
Meanwhile,
mounting concern over the
growing Syrian influence in
Lebanon was reflected here
in warnings by the presi-
dent, the premier and the
defense minister that Israel
would be forced to intervene
militarily if Syria invaded
or took over Lebanon.
The warning by President
Ephraim Katzir, in a speech
to a United Jewish Appeal
mission headed by Walter
Segaloff of Newport News,
Va., was unexpected be-
cause the president of Israel
rarely makes political state-
ments in public.
Katzir's words, therefore,
seemed to underline the
gravity of the situation.
Katzir said: "Our policy
is not to interfere in Le-
banese internal policy.
But if Syria interferes, we
will have no choice but to
send in our troops. If Syria
takes over Lebanon it will
pose a serious threat to
Israel."
Premier Yitzhak Rabin,
addressing the closing ses-
sion of the United Israel Ap-
peal-Keren Hayesod mis-
sion here, also warned Syria
not to intervene in Lebanon.
He declined to specify what
Syrian move would be re-

DISTINGUISHED SPEAKERS

25847 WOODVILLA, SOUTHFIELD
The Vaad Harabonim of Detroit cordially invite everyone to attend .
garded by Israel as an act of
war. However, he declared,
"Our neighbors know ex-
actly" what developments
would force Israel to act and
they should therefore "think
and think again before pre-
cipitating such develop-
ments."
Defense Minister Shimon
Peres, who addressed a
52-member UJA mission
from Cleveland, said "We
feel our warnings regarding
Lebanon have been suffi-
cient until now. I know that
some elements in Lebanon
are appreciative. If the Syri-
ans are around in Lebanon
it will mean a new war, but
they have an appreciation of
their strength compared to
ours and for that reason
they are being careful."
In Washington the
United States looks to "a
political accommodation"
in Lebanon which will
"preserve the security of
all the Lebanese communi-
ties," the State Depart-
ment said.
Under questioning, de-
partment spokesman John
Trattner said, in reference
to the Syrian government's
mediation with the warring
parties, that "we would, of
course, be encouraged by a
successful outcome of what
appears to be a serious ef-
fort to achieve a cease-fire
that sticks and a political
accommodation in Lebanon
which would be acceptable
to and preserve the security
of all Lebanese communi-
ties."
