WASHINGTON (JTA) — The United States and Israel have agreed on a
new bilateral civil aviation agreement that is expected to result in greatly
expanded air service and lower passenger fares between the two countries.
The agreement, announced at the State Department Saturday after three
weeks of negotiations, replaces the original 1950 U.S.-Israel arrangement
and its amendments. It will be signed early in August after Israeli
Ambassador Simha Dinitz, who headed the Israeli delegation in the

Show Trial Reprisal Debated
Amid Anti-Soviet Indignation

No Agreement at Leeds Castle;
Cyrus Vance Will Visit M.E.

LONDON (JTA) — The Middle East talks at Leeds Castle were sufficiently

successful to warrant further contacts involving Egypt, Israel and the United
States, U.S. Secretary of State Cyrus Vance said Wednesday. But there is still no
agreement on a renewal of full-scale negotiations.
Vance was commenting at the end of the two-day meeting of the Israeli and
Egyptian foreign ministers, under his chairmanship. The meeting had not broken
down, like an earlier one in Jerusalem in January. Although no major decisions
were taken, these exploratory talks justified further contacts.
Alfred Atherton, roving ambassador to the Middle East, will go out to the region
immediately to lay the ground for Vance's own trip there in two weeks.

The actual talks were businesslike and thorough. That was especially true of the
protracted, technical dialogue between the leading legal experts of both sides when
considering Israel'i 26-point plan granting limited autonomy to the Palestinian
inhabitants of the disputed territories. The participants were Prof. Aharon Barak,
the former Israel attorney general, and Dr. Nabil al-Arabi, the Egyptian foreign
ministry's top lawyer.

Mayor Young's 'Clarification'
Calls Terrorism 'Fact of Life'

In a statement addressed to The Detroit Jewish News on Monday, Mayor Col-
eman Young presented a clarification of his views which aroused wide criticism
during the last two weeks.
The statement was inspired by a luncheon meeting he had with Jewish leaders
Friday at the Standard Club at which he was questioned regarding his views,
quoted from a press conference upon his return from Israel with Vice President
Walter Mondale, in which he reportedly condoned terrorism.
The meeting Friday was chaired by John Shepherd, president of the Jewish
Community Council, and was attended by members of several civic-protective-
Jewish groups in Greater Detroit.

Calling the report of his interview "a distortion" and stating that his
statement is "not an effort either to change or explain any of the comments I
made at the July 6 press briefing," Mayor Young proceeds to call terrorism
"a fact of life."

WASHINGTON (JTA) — President Carter began to take economic reprisals
against the Soviet Union on Wednesday for its sentences of Jewish activists by
cancelling the sale of a computer to TASS, the official Soviet news agency, and
putting all exports of oil technology to the USSR under direct White House control.
The President's action drew a mixed reaction from a group of Congressmen who
went to see him to discuss the reprisals. Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D-Wash.) applauded
the move and said the U.S. should lead efforts to have the 1980 Olympic Games moved
from Moscow to some other site. "The Russians are trying to clear out the dissidents
before the games," he charged.
But Sen. Frank Church (D-Idaho) voiced misgivings over the move. "Everyone feels
that the trials of the dissidents are an outrage," Church said. "But I must say that I
have my doubts that you can prick the paw of the Russian bear and convert it to a
lamb."
Church said that "The best leverage we have is the moral force that can be
brought to bear by the expressed indignation by free peoples everywhere. I
doubt very much that direct action in the form of reprisals can be effective."
Commerce Secretary Juanita Kreps, who announced the President's moves, also
did not feel it was the right way to handle the situation, a Commerce Department
spokesman said. "But he's made a decision and she's got to comply with it."
Anatoly Shcharansky was sentenced Friday in Moscow to 13 years for treason,
three years in jail and the remaining 10 in a "strict regime" labor camp, the second
harshest type of labor camp. He was also sentenced to seven years in a labor camp for
anti-Soviet agitation and propaganda, but that is to run concurrently with his present
sentence.
The day before Shcharansky's sentence, Alexander Ginzburg was sentenced in
Kaluga, 100 miles south of Moscow, to eight years in a "special regime" labor camp,
the toughest of the four types, for anti-Soviet agitation and propaganda. Time
magazine said Ginzburg is a devout Russian Orthodox convert. His mother is Jewish.
Shcharansky and Ginzburg were both members of the Moscow group
monitoring Soviet compliance with the human rights provisions of the Hel-
sinki Agreement. Also sentenced last Thursday was Viktoras Petkus, a
member of the Lithuanian section of the monitoring group, who received a
three-year prison term followed by seven years in a labor camp.
Of 38 founding members of the group, 17 are now in prison and seven have
emigrated or been exiled.
Immediately after Shcharansky's sentence, President Carter, who was in Bonn,
West Germany, said he was saddened by the news. "We are all sobered by this
reminder that so late in the 20th Century, a person can be sent to jail simply for
asserting his basic human rights, " Carter said. He promised that "our voice will,not

NEW YORK — An American Nazi propagandist was paid $20,000 by Saudi Arabia last year
"in appreciation" for his 1976 anti-Semitic book, "Antizion." As reported earlier, the Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai Brith uncovered the payment in foreign agent registration papers
filed by the Nazi, William Grimstad, with the U.S. Justice Department.
The payment was listed by Grimstad as a "gift or honorarium apparently in appreciation of
publication of my 1976 book, 'Antizion;' and intended for use in similar humanitarian educa-
tional projects I may undertake."

In filing as an agent, Grimstad described himself as an "historian and writer." He
said his work for the Saudis would include "historical research into all aspects of the
Zionist colonial incursion into Palestine" and "exposing Zionist imperialism."

Grimstad is a former managing editor of White Power, the periodical founded in 1967 by the
late George Lincoln Rockwell as the official organ of his National Socialist White Peoples Party
(originally, the American Nazi Party). He is the author of numerous anti-Jewish articles and
the book, "Antizion," dedicated to the late King Faisal.
A revision of his earlier book entitled, "The Jews On Trial," it is an anthology of anti-Jewish
statements purportedly made by "leading personalities" including notorious anti-Semites.
Grimstad joined White Power as a staff writer in 1971. During that year, some of the
material later incorporated into "The Jews On Trial" appeared with his by-line in a special
supplement of White Power under the headline, "One Hundred Views on the Jews." He became
managing editor of White Power in 1972.
