Panamanian authorities is whether the U.S.-Panama accord is the final word on any nation's use of the waterway. The Jewish Telegraphic Agency asked U.S. and Pan- amanian spokesmen whether the treaties super- sede any possible action by the United Nations that may impinge on the U.S.-Pan- amanian treaties. The State Department replied, that no country's ships - can be legally barred from transiting the canal and that if a country is con- demned by the UN it still could have its ships go through the waterway. At the Panamanian Embassy, Counselor Marina Mayo told JTA "the canal -will be open at all times to vessels of all nations on an unrestricted basis without discrimination. Panama might apply sanctions as a government but it would not apply sanctions towards another country's use of the waterway." *** The fact that Sol M. Linowitz, former chairman of the board of Xerox and former U.S. Ambassador to the Organization of Ameri- can States, naa a major part in the shaping of the treaties, is additional testi- mony to the important roles Jews have had in Panama's external and domestic affairs. Linowitz, in association with Ellsworth Bunker. not only performed a lion's share of the negotiation for the United States but he also was called upon by President Carter to con- vince such organizations like the American Legion to approve the treaties and to persuade the Senate of their need. Jewish traders and finan- ciers helped cement U.S.- Panamanian relations at the time the canal was being contemplated and when it was being dug under Ameri- can auspices. Jews were in the narrow waist of Panama when Americans and others were crossing it on their way to the California Gold Rush in 1849. Three centuries before that, the first Spanish colo- nial governor of the Pan- amanian province of Colum- bia was the Marrano Pedro Arias Davila. While a Cath- olic, Davila is widely regarded in Central Amer- ica as a Jew and was one of many like him who /were Text of U.S., USSR Joint Statement on M. E . Released UNITED NATIONS (JTA) — The text of the joint U.S.- Soviet statement on the Middle East: •Both governments are convinced that vital interests of the peoples of this area as well as the interests of strength- eing peace and international security in general urgently dictate the necessity of achieving as soon as possible a just and lasting settlement of the Arab-Israeli conflict. This set- tlement should be comprehensive, incorporating all parties concerned and all questions. The United States and the Soviet Union believe that within the framework of a comprehensive settlement of the Mddle East problem, all specific questions of the settle- ment should be resolved, including such key issues as with- drawal of Israeli armed forced from territories occupied in the 1967 conflict; the resolution of the Palestinian question including insuring the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people; termination of the state of war and establishment of normal peaceful relations on the basis of mutual recogni- tion of the principles of sovereignty. territorial integrity and political independence. The hvo governments believe that, in addition to such measures for insuring the security of the borders between Israel and the neighboring Arab states as the establishment of demilitarized zones and the agreed stationing in them of United Nations troops or observers, international guaran- tees of such borders as well as of the observance of the terms of the settlement can also be established, should the contracting parties so desire. The United States and the Soviet Union are ready to participate in these guarantees, subject to their constitutional processes. 'The United States and the Soviet Union believe that the only right and effective way for achieving a fundamental solution to all aspects of the Middle East problem in its entirety is negotiations within the framework of the Geneva Peace Conference, specially convened for these purposes. with participation in its work of the representatives of all the parties involved in the conflict, including those of the Palestinian people. and legal and contractual formalization of the decisions reached at the conference. In their capacity as co-chairman of the Geneva Confer- ence, the U.S. and the USSR affirm their intention through joint efforts and in their contacts with the parties con- cerned to facilitate in every way the resumption of the work of the Conference not later than December 1977. The co-chairmen note that there still exist several questions of a procedural and organizational nature which remain to be agreed upon by the participants to the Conference. •Guided by the goal of achieving a just political settle- ment in the Middle East and of eliminating the explosive situation in this area of the world. the U.S. and the USSR appeal to all the parties in the conflict to understand the necessity for careful consideration of each other's legiti- mate rights and interests and to demonstrate mutual read- iness to act accordingly. sent to the Isthmus in those years to help colonize Spain's new territories. In 1967, another Jew, Max Del Valle, . became Pan- ama's president for a brief time. In a political upsurge that year, the government's head was deposed and Del Valle as vice president assumed his duties until a new government took charge. Del Valle is one of the two Jews outside of Israel who served as presi- dent of a country. The other is the late Moses Pijada who was Yugoslavia's presi- dent in the early years of Tito's authority after World War II. Many Jews have been prime ministers. Panama's present Jewish population of about 2,000 in a total of about 1,600,000 is about 60 percent Sephardim. The country's first Jews under Panamanian rule were from the Spanish-Por- tuguese communities on the Dutch and British islands in the Caribbean. At present, Panama City has about 1,500 Jews. Colon includes some 200 and there are scat- terings in David, Chitre and other towns.
