U.S. Interference is Denied in Israel's Kadum Decision JERUSALEM (JTA) — Foreign Minister Yigal Al- Ion strongly rebutted charges Wednesday that the government had been influ- enced by American interfer- ence when it decided, 10 days ago, to move the Kad- um settlement elsewhere. Replying to a motion in the Knesset by Likud's Yit- zhak Shamir, Allon said there was no U.S. "inter- ference."

At the same time, the USCF said it would not par- ticipate in the Arab games. Both decisions were taken Sunday during the USCF board meeting in Windsor Locks, Conn. E. B. Edmondson, the USCF director, said the Arab-sponsored games pose "the greatest poten- tial danger to the goals and existence of the Inter- national Chess Federa- tion." Sheik• According to USCF offi- cials, the Arab Libyan Chess Federation would pay the travel costs of partici- pants to Tripoli plus $8 ex- penses daily during the 23-day event.

AJCongress Helps Change Exam Date for Shomrei Shabat UNITED NATIONS (JTA) — Israeli delegates at the UN said that the Arabs suffered a "great defeat" when Black African dele- gates blocked a move by the Arabs to include statements equating Zionism with rac- ism in two resolutions adopted by the United Na- tions Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). The move by the African states indicated a widening rift between them and the Ar- abs. NEW YORK — The American Jewish Congress announced success in its ef- forts to persuade the Ameri- can Board of Ophthalmol- ogy to re-schedule a certifi- cation examination so that it is not held on a Saturday. The nationwide test had originally been scheduled to be held Friday through Tuesday, May 7-10. The next examination that did not include a Saturday was scheduled for October 1977 — an 18-month delay that would have caused consider- able hardship to physicians awaiting certification as ophthalmologists. As a result of protests by the American Jewish Con- gress in behalf of a group of Orthodox Jewish physi- cians, the board agreed to change the dates of its De- cember examination in Chi- cago to Wednesday through Friday, Dec. 1-3. Black African Delegates Block Anti-Zionist Move in the UN The two resolutions, how- ever, do contain anti-Zionist statements by implication. One endorsed all UN deci- sions "bearing on racism, racial discrimination, apar- theid, decolonialization and self-determination" which in effect includes last year's General Assembly resolu- tion equating Zionism with racism. This is also true of the second resolution which, in approving a request from Ghana for funds for a con- ference on racism. said the meeting would take steps to secure the "full and univer- sal implementation of United Nations decisions and resolutions on racism." Algeria wanted to strengthen the connection between anti-Zionism and the two resolutions. But it was opposed at a private meeting by African na- tions who feared the anti- Zionist move would ham- per efforts aimed at south- ern Africa, according to sources. The two resolutions were adopted by a 40-1 vote with Canada casting the lone negative ballot. The U.S. did not participate and eight West European countries in the 54-member body ab- stained. Meanwhile, in Istanbul, foreign ministers from 40 Moslem nations, winding up the seventh Islamic Confer- ence, called for Israel's ex- pulsion from the UN and equated Zionism with rac- ism.
