Statements of protest

Section of the World
Zionist Organization, the
National Council of
Jewish Women, the Union
of American Hebrew

binical Council of

The Jewish Community
Council of Metropolitan
Detroit delivered an angry
protest letter to Detroit's

Yves Coffin. The council's
rabbinical commission
sent letters to 13 area
newspapers protesting
Daoud's release. The Met-

telegrams to the U.S. State
Department and the

Washington expressing
outrage "at the complete
disregard of justice."
Dore Schary, honorary
national chairman of
the Anti-Defamation
League, said, "While the
ADL is opposed to the de-
vice of the boycott and
does not plan the use of
one, we are appalled at
the behavior of the
French government in
bowing to the pressure of
terrorist groups."
Dr. Joseph P. Stern-
stein, president of the
Zionist Organization of
America, said, "Ameri-
cans who fought twice for
the liberation of France
feel saddened and
ashamed of the French
decision to free a top
commander of the Black
September terrorist
group which is responsi-
ble for countless murders
of innocent men, women,
and children."
Dr. Sternstein said

that many

Physics Expert Elias Klein, 88

Elias Klein, noted for-
his research in physics in
the 1920s and 1930s, died
Jan. 10 in Florida at age
88.
Born
in
Vilnar,
Lithuania, Dr. Klein was
sent by his widowed
mother from his birth-
place to an uncle in New
York in order to secure
a scientific education.
He earned a . BS de-
gree in physics and a BCE
in structural mechanics
from Valparaiso Univer-
sity. He spent five years
as an instructor at Val-
paraiso and then became
a teaching assistant at
Yale University where he
received a PhD degree in
1921.
After a year at the
University of Saskatche-
wan, he became an as-
sistant professor of
physics at Lehigh Uni-
versity. There, he
pioneered in developing a
curriculum emphasizing
the training of engineers
to meet futu're needs.
This approach was later
adopted at Cornell and
Harvard universities.
In 1927, Dr. Klein joined
the staff of the Naval Re-
search Laboratory in
Washington D.C. There
with a small group of other
scientists, he developed
acoustic detection devices
that did much to counter
the submarine threat in
World War II.
He designed the Harbor
Echo-Ranging System,
whichwas.a listening de-
vice for the protection of
New York Harbor. He
then supervised the lay-
ing of a cable for the re-
mote control network on
the bottom of the harbor
and its connections to

.

.

land stations, and set up
the Harbor Defense
School to teach personnel
how to operate the sys-
tem. For this achieve-
ment, Dr. Klein received
the Department of the
Navy Distinguished Civi-
lian Service Award in
1945.
During World War II,
Dr. Klein also developed
the ultrasonic underwa-
ter beacon which pro-
vided navigational gui-
dance for commando and
amphibious landings on
beachheads. In peace-
time, it is used as a chan-
nel marker.
In 1947, the Navy De-
partment asked Dr. Klein
to collate and coordinate
information in the field of
shock and vibration. Over
a 10-year period he or-
ganized a series of 24
symposia to encourage
the exchange of informa-
tion and the improve-
ment of science and
technology in the field.
After his retirement at
age 71 when he received
the honor of a presidential
extension of duty beyond
the mandatory retirement
age, Dr. Klein worked with
NASA's Goddard Space
Flight Center in Green-
belt, Md. He organized and
conducted the Goddard
Summer Workshop. This
effort brought together
university professors and
students to stimulate new
thinking ' and new ap-
proaches to the problems-
presented by space re-
search.
Dr. Klein is survived by
his wife, Bert; a son,
David; a daughter,
Marsha; and a sister, -

persons organized by the
Canadian Zionist Federa-
tion demonstrated in
front of the French con-
sulate. There were also
demonstrations in front
of the French embassy in
Washington and a "fun-
eral procession" for
French honor up Fifth
Ave. in New York.
AFL-CIO President
George Meany said in a
statement that "the cow-
ardly —action" by the
French _ government
"merits the contempt of
the civilized world." He
said, "In what amounts to
recognition of terrorists,
France has demonstrated
more concern for pleasing
the Arab oil blackmailers

and insuring sale of air-
craft to Arab nations
than it has shown for
human lives and human
decency."
A delegation of the
DAIA called on French
Ambassador Francois de
la George in Buenos Aires
to express "the deep con-
sternation" of the Argen-
tine Jewish community.
In Mexico City, a dele-
gation of the Central
Jewish Committee deli-
vered a memorandum to
the French embassy say-
ing that the Jewish co
munity in Mexico is "d
appointed and dismaye
by the incredible attitude
of the French govern-
ment."

Fight Against Terrorism Hurt

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Premier Yitzhak Rabin
told Sunday's Cabinet
meeting that the French
government's position in
the Abu Daoud affair is
damaging to the pros-
pects of fighting interna-
tional terrorism.
He vowed that Israel
would act by all possible
means to bring terrorist
killers to trial and
punishment. "The gov-
ernment is obligated to
act in every legal way to
seize murderers who stay
in friendly countries," he
said.
"The purpose is," Rabin
explained, "to prevent op-
tions for sabotage in Israel
and against Jewish targets
both in Israel and abroad."
He stressed, however,
that Israel's quarrel is
with the French govern-
ment, not the French
people "who understand
the need to fight against
international terror." -
The Cabinet session

was attended by Israel's
Ambassador to France,
Mordechai Gazit.
