er Zbigniew Brzezinski of
the Carter Administration's
continuing close relation-
ship with Israel and its
standing position that a
Middle East peace settle-
ment will be up to the par-
ties to the conflict to nego-
tiate.
Brzezinski, who is chair-
man of the National Secu-
rity Council, met for an
hour at the White House
Monday with a delegation
of Jewish leaders headed
by Rabbi Alexander Schind-
ler, chairman of the Confer-
ence of Presidents of Major
American Jewish Organiza-
tions. Their discussions cov-
ered the Middle East and
the American foreign policy
stance.
Schindler said the meet-
ing with Brzezinski was
sought when it appeared
that the Administration was
intent on keeping Israel off
a preferred list of countries
receiving U.S. military sup-
plies and blocking the co-
production with Israel of
certain military equipment.
At a session of the Ameri-
can Jewish Committee an-
nual meeting in New York,
Israel Ambassador Simha
Dinitz warned that Israel
must never depend on U.S.
guarantees for her security.
Following a session with
key Senators last week,
President Carter reversed
that trend and publicly de-
clared that his Adminis-
tration's "number one com-
mitment" in the Middle
East was Israel's security.
Schindler said that although
that obstacle in Israeli-
.
American relations was re-
moved, the meeting with
Brzezinski was held as
planned. He said his' group
held more or less regular
monthly sessions with ad-
ministration officials.
The next one is scheduled
today with Stuart Eizenstat,
director of the President's
Domestic Council. Energy
will be the chief topic of dis-
cussion.
Asked about the Adminis-
tration's follow through on
Carter's commitments with
respect to arms deliveries
and the co-production of
such equipment as F-16 jet
fighters and Israel's new
Merkava (chariot) tank,
Schindler said the Jewish
leaders had indicated to
Brzezinski that "often a
gap exists between the
statement and the deed"
and urged him to do every-
thing in his power "to fol-
low up both procedures."
Schindler described Brze-
zinski's response as "heart-
ening."
Questioned about charges
that Brzezinski was biased
against the Jewish people
Schindler replied, "That is
not only reckless, it is not
true." He said Brzezinski
has "always been very en-
lightening, thoughtful and
friendly."
Schindler said the coming
year would be "difficult"
for Israel • and the Middle
East with the "political
process going forward" and
"decisions to be made." He
observed that the American
Jewish community "can
supplement the government

war-injured personnel to
visit America. The idea
originated with Mrs. Don-
ald Robinson of Pittsburgh
for American volunteers to
entertain small groups of

States. The first group of a
dozen visited Pittsburgh in
1975. Last year another
group of 12 came to Wash-
ington.
Plans are being formed
for veterans to go in future
years to other American
cities, too. Detroit and Chi-
cago were indicated as prob-
abilities at a reception for
the veterans at the resi-
dence of Ambassador and
Mrs. Simcha Dinitz.
