It was learned that Is- rael sent two warnings to Syria over the weekend concerning the movement of Syrian troops in Leba- non. The warnings were conveyed to Damascus through American chan- nels, one Friday and the second Sunday night fol- lowing a meeting of Pre- mier Yitzhak Rabin with U.S. Ambassador Malcolm Toon. The latest warnings were believed prompted by the Katyusha rocket at- tack on Nahariya Sunday night and the bazooka at- tack on an Israeli border patrol Friday. The messages were said to have made it clear that Israel will hold Syria re- sponsible for curbing ter- rorist activities in South- ern Lebanon.

Mordechai Gur Dulzin Urges One-Year Delay of Zionist Congress NEW • YORK (JTA) — Leon Dulzin, treasurer of the Jewish Agency, said that the 29th World Zionist Congress should be postponed until January, 1978 in order to avoid conflicting with the election campaign in Is- rael. He disagreed with Yosef Almogi, chairman of the Jewish Agnecy and World Zionist Organiza- tion Executives, who said in Jerusalem last week that the Congress should be held next summer, possibly in June. Dulzin, who is presi- dent of the World Union of General Zionists, ar- rived in New York on a week-long speaking tour on behalf of the United Jewish Appeal. He said that if the Con- gress were to be held in June there is a _great danger that Zionist issues would be pushed into the background because all the political parties in Is- rael use the Congress to Rivlin Successor Sought by. Almogi DIAMONDS LARGE HOLIDAY GIFT SELECTION presence in Lebanon is strong enough to impose restraints on the rela- tively small terrorist con- centrations in the south- ern portion of that coun- try without Syria itself sending troops into the zone adjacent to Israel's border. Syrian strength in Lebanon is said to exceed 30,000 troops and au- xiliaries and 300-400 tanks. They comprise eight commando battal- ions, the 65th infantry brigade south of Baal- beck, the 21st infantry brigade at the Zaharani oil refineries near the port city of Sidon and the 132nd infanty brigade at the port of Tripoli. JERUSALEM (JTA) — Yosef Almogi, chairman of the Jewish Agency and World Zionist Organiza-. tion Executives, is look- ing for a new director general of the Jewish Agency to replace Moshe Rivlin who is expected to be elected chairman of the Jewish National Fund next month. Rivlin will resign from the post he had held with notable success for the past 11 years. So far, Almogi has en- countered difficulties fil- ling the job. He is known to have approached Simha Dinitz, currently Israel's Ambassador to the U.S., and former In- formation Minister Aha- ron Yariv, head of the In- stitute of Strategic Studies at Tel Aviv Uni- versity. Both turned down the offer. Premier Yitzhak Rabin and Foreign Minister Yigal Allon reportedly favor former Gen. Ze'ev Shaham to take Rivlin's place, but Almogi prefers to look elsewhere. promote their election campaigns. Dulzin, a leader of the Likud opposition, said that the Israeli represen- tation to the Congress is based on the 1973 Knesset elections. He said it would be more representative to have it based on the com- position of the new Knes- set after the elections, scheduled for November, 1977. The World Zionist Con- gress was to have con- vened in Jerusalem Jan. 17, 1977. It was postponed after the Congress Court ruled that elections must be held in all countries for Congress delegates. Dulzin will attend a meeting of the WZO Executive Plenary in London after leaving the U.S., at which a new date for the Congress will be discussed. The Board of Governors of the Jewish Agency will meet in Lon- don Monday and Tues day. chief of army intelligence. No details were released. Meanwhile, Israel's Ambassador to Wash- ington, Simha Dinitz, was expected to meet Secret- ary of State Henry A. Kis- singer to discuss the situ- ation in Lebanon. An Arab League spokesman, commenting on the dis- patch of Israeli re- enforcements to the bor- der, said that the league': peace-keeping force was sent to end the civil war in Lebanon, not start a new war with Israel.
