Jewry has learbed that the
trial against Soviet Jewish
activist Dr. Iosif Begun on
charges of parasitism has
been postponed until May
27, due to the activist's
"poor health."
Reports from Moscow
said the courtroom where
the trial was to have taken
place May 6' was open to
the public.
In a related development,
Fred Coleman reported in
Newsweek Magazine on
stepped-up harassment of
Soviet Jews by the Krem-
lin.
He stated in part:
"Since February, the dis-
sident committee set up in
Moscow to monitor Soviet
compliance with the
human-rights provisions of
the 1975 Helsinki accord
has been decimated by ar-
rest, illness and forced emi-
gration.
"To what extent Soviet
anger over Carter's human-
right pronouncements may
have led to the crackdown
On dissidents remains, un-
clear. The Kremlin appar-
ently intends to stifle dis-
sent before a meeting in
Belgrade next month at
.which the Helsinki accord
will be reviewed by the 35
I Don't Want to Sell You A Car.
I Want To Help You Buy One.
You work hard for your money.
So do I.
But.I don't think.that a low price
alone is enough to get you to
spend your money at Jerry
Glassman Olds, or any other
car dealership.
I believe people want to
buy their car-from a
dealership they can put
their trust in. A dealership
that'll work as hard for their
money as they did. Making sure
things are right — before, during.
and after the sale.

When you visit Glassman Olds,
we'll help you pick out a car that's
right for the kind of driving yaw do.
Then we'll quote you a fair price. A
price as low as any in town.
Maybe lower.
And, after the sale, you'll find
our smiles are just as wide,
our handshakes just as friendly
when you come in for a free
warranty check.
That's the way I tun things at
Jerry Glassman Oldsmobile.
Come in and see for yourself.

"Many diplomats in Mos-
cow believe the Soviet
crackdown was designed as
an object lesson to Poland,
Czechoslovakia, East Ger-
many and Romania, where
dissidents pose more of a
threat to Communist re-
gimes than they do in Rus-
sia.
`-`The Kremlin went a
long way toward silencing
'dissent when it ordered the
arrests of three founders of
the Helsinki group:
Aleksandr Ginzburg, 40,
and Yuri Orlov, 53, in Feb-
ruary and Anatoly Sha-
ransky, 29, in March."
At the United .Nations, Is-
rael appealed to the Soviet
Union "for a gesture of
good will, to release those
imprisoned and to permit
those many . other Jews
whose only'. desire, after
years of waiting, is to be re-
patriated to their homeland
andunited with their fam-
ilies.''
Herzog was charging
the Soviet delegate, Am-
bassador Evgeny Makeyev,
demanded that Herzog not
be allowed to continue his
address. The Russian said
Herzog's speech was con-
trary to the "rules" and
"not relevant" However,
Ambassador Ole Adgard of,
Norway, who was chairing
the session, ruled that Her-
zog was speaking "to the
point." The Israeli envoy
continued with his speech.
In Washington, Congress-
man Dale E. Kildee (D-
Flint) is taking a leading
role in the .Congress in
speaking out for the cause
of human rights for Jews in
the 'Soviet Union.
Kildee is a co-sponsor of
two House concurrent reso-
- lutions which would put the
Congress on record as ask-
ing the Soviet government
to adhere to the principles
of the Helsinki agreement.

Carter-Assad Meeting Differed
From Other Talks on Mideast
GENEVA (JTA)—Presi-
dent Carter's 3'/2-hour meet-
ing with President Hafez
Assad of Syria in Geneva
differed markedly from his
earlier meetings with
Middle Eastern leaders in
that concrete matters were
discussed.
According to Zbigniew
Brzezinski, chairman of the
National Security Council,
who participated in the
meeting, the two presidents
discussed the possibility of
setting up demilitarized
zones on both sides of the Is-
raeli-Syrian border and the
use of sophisticated, elec-
tronic advance warning sys-
tems such as those cur-
rently operated by Ameri-
cans, Israelis and Egyp-
. tians in Sinai. ,
Such details are not
known to have been dis-
cussed at Carter's meetings
with Israeli Premier Yitz-
hak Rabin and President
Anwar Sadat of Egypt last
month or with King Hussein
of Jordan who visited the
White House earlier this
-
month.
According to Brzezinski,
Carter and Assad discussed
the nature of peace in the
Mideast, borders, security
and the Palestinian issue in
its immediate ramifications
which concern Palestinian
representation at a recon-
vened Geneva conference
and in a broader sense ap-
parently meaning a Palesti-
nian homeland.
yrian sources said
Assad stressed that a
speedy solution must be
found for the Middle East
conflict and that the Gen-
eva conference was the last
hope.
Prior to his talks with
Assad, Carter- was called
upon by the Committee for
the Rescue of Syrian Jewry
to raise the issue of the
plight of Syrian Jewry with
the Syrian president.
The State Department offi-
cial who translated Carter's
remarks into Arabic
Assad was Isa Sabbag
scribed by American
cials as of Egyptian-Jewish
origin.
In Jerusalem, Premier
Rabin said he had the feel-
ing Syrian President Assad
had dictated "too much" to
U.S. President Jimmy Car-
ter.
