Not long afterward, King Hussein released Abu Daoud. Now he has been freed again so that he may kill again . . ." Statements of protest were issued by the American Jewish Com- mittee; the American Section of the World Zionist Organization, the National Council of Jewish Women, the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, the Rab- binical Council of America, the National Council of Young Israel, the New York City Coun- cil, the American Zionist Federation, the Religious Zionists of America, the executive committee of Breira, the Union of Or- thodox Jewish Congrega- tions of America, the New York Board of Rabbis, as well as hundreds of other organizations. The Jewish Community Council of Metropolitan Detroit delivered an angry protest letter to Detroit's consul general of France, Yves Coffin. The council's rabbinical commission sent letters to 13 area newspapers protesting Daoud's release. The Met- ropolitan Detroit Chapter of Hadassah, the sister- hood of Cong. Shaarey Zedek and the community council sent more than 500 telegrams to the U.S. State Department and the French ambassador in 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 s he that many had n6 no Americans will "seek to shun relationships with France." The AJCongress an- nounced cancellation of its members' travel program to France. In Montreal, some 400 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, - Mrs. Minna Stone of Berkley . - 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. * * Daoud Proclaims His Innocence NEW YORK — Abu Daoud gave several Con- flicting statements to Paris newspapers from Algiers over the weekend, following his release by French authorities. Daoud denied any role in the 1972 Munich mas- sacre, offered to go to West Germany to prove his innocence if the Ger- mans would deal with the Palestine Liberation Or- ganization to make the arrangements and would guarantee his safe re- turn, and said he would continue fighting "Israel and Zionists."
