WASHINGTON (JTA)
— Legislative actions of
special Jewish concern
and interest will soon
reach preliminary stages
in the 95th Congress.
Among the legislative
measures to face Con-
gress and the new Admin-
istration are military and
economic aid to Israel and
to its Arab neighbors; de-
livery of arms to Saudi
Arabia, Jordan and
Egypt; renewal of full
U.S. membership in UN-
ESCO which continues to
condemn -Israel while lift-
ing one "illegitimate"
barrier against her;
ratification of the 30-
year-old genocide treaty
which actually may be
voted into law by the
Senate this time; and
outlawing the Arab
boycott against Israel in-
sofar as Americans are
concerned in any form.
Other measures in-
clude: nuclear plants for
Egypt and Israel; legisla-
tion that may circumvent
the Jackson-Vanik and
Stevenson-Harrison pro-
visos of the current U.S.
trade and' credit laws
with relation to U.S gov-
ernment credits for the
Soviet Union and its
emigration policy; fresh
Congressional considera-
tions of the Helsinki ac-
cords in the light of Soviet
flouting of its human
rights provisions; and
consideration of energy
programs to lessen de-
pendence_on Arab oil.
Legislation is expected
to be introduced early in
the session against the
Arab boycott. It will be
along the lines of the com-
promise informally
worked ir)ut by Senate and
House members when the
legislation before both
chambers was stymied by
Senate Republican Policy
Committee chairman John
Towers until Congress ad-
journed Oct. 2.
With President Ford
and Commerce Secretary
Elliot Richardson both
having committed them-
selves to legislation that
would expose compliance
by American firms with
the boycott, new and
tough laws can be ex-
pected.
Whether the U.S.
should return to full
membership in UNESCO
may prove a troublesome
question. Arguments are
emerging that the clear-
ance of the road for Israel
to join the European Re-
gional Group should
offset the "politicization"
of the educational, scien-
tific and cultural organi-
zation against Israel.
Leaders in the strong
negative reaction and sus-
pension of U.S. 'dues in
UNESCO two years ago
after UNESCO pushed
through a resolution bar-
ring Israel are not so cer-
tain. They seem to agree
that the UNESCO vote in
Nairobi in November is a
good start in the right di-
rection but is two related
resolutions attacking Is-
rael outweigh that.
Restoration of Israel to
UNESCO membership,
pro-Israelis feel, is not a
favor to Israel but rectifi-
cation of a wrong that
never should have oc-
curred and is therefore
insufficient to justify re-
newal of U.S. payments to
that UN body.

'Solving Mideast
Conflict Is Risky'
TEL AVIV * (ZINS) —
Historian
Walter
in
Laqueur wrote
Ha'aretz that the notion
that solving the Israel-
Arab conflict would
stabilize the situation in
the Middle East, is a
dangerous illusion.
Even if Israel would
agree to the establish-
ment of a Palestinian
state, and this state
would have the economic
means to absorb hun-
dreds of thousanids of ref-
ugees and it would live in
peace with Israel, there
would be no peace in the
Middle East.
Laqueur said there are
many crises in the
Mideast. They are a re-
sult of territorial, ideolog-
ical, sociological, reli-
gious and political con-
flicts.
A "peaceful solution"
will not lessen but shar-
pen the political, ideologi-
cal and territorial con-
flicts.
While
They
Last.
