40 Friday, July 28, 1978 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS U.S. Hurting British Efforts to Enact Anti-Boycott Laws LONDON (JTA) — The chances of Britain adopting anti-boycott legislation have weakened considera- bly following the United States government's failure to provide important evi- dence about the impact of recent American legisla- tion. Anti-boycott circles sus- pect this may have been caused by U.S. reluctance to irritate the British govern- ment, which is hostile to legislation. But the Ameri- can Embassy says the only reason is the lack of conclu- sive evidence about Ameri- can legislation which is still new. It also denied that the British government has in- volved itself in the matter. As a result, however, the House of Lords Select Committee is preparing its report on the foreign FOR A COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO JUSTICE and Common Sense in the Courtroom JUDGE GENE SCHNELZ Judge Gene Schnelz has proved during thirteen years as judge that he knows you and your concerns and he has all the qualifications: honesty, ability, experience, maturity and a sense of humor as well as common sense.

Supporters of the legis- lation have argued that, contrary to dire predic- tions, the legislation has not damaged American business with Arab coun- tries and that, indeed, the latter are flexibly ac- commodating themselves to it. Opponents of the bill have maintained that such conclusions are either wrong or prema- ture. Meanwhile, Arab efforts to affect the policies of American corporations, banks, colleges and univer- sities are continuing at a re- cord rate, according to Petro Impact, a newsletter pub- lished by the American Jewish Committee. In its second issue, the publication describes a series of five meetings held between April 17 and May 3 in five U.S. cities in which leaders of Arab and U.S. chambers of commerce, OPEC officials, and Arab and American businessmen discussed the problems of doing business with each other. Although the announced purpose of the sessions was to "stimulate Arab-U.S. trade by bringing buyers and sellers together," Petro Impact stated, "there was a distinct political undertone to the meetings and also a rumble of secret deals. The conferences also served as forums for intense Arab lobbying efforts against U.S. anti-boycott regula- tions and for the proposed sale of fighter planes to Saudi Arabia." A significant result of increased commercial re- lations between the Arab nations and U.S. com- panies, the publication states, is the emergence of pro-Arab spokesmen among U.S. suppliers of goods or technical ser- vices to the Arabs. "These companies, in their zeal to cooperate with oil-rich countries, are in ef- fect a hidden lobby, helping to shape American percep- tions and attitudes," it de- clares. Another article in Petro Impact discusses the way three Quaker-founded col- leges — Swarthmore, Bryn Mawr and Haverford — have responded to student and faculty objections to their proposed joint effort to obtain funds for a Middle East studies program from a holding company founded and chaired by Adnan Khashoggi, "the Saudi ty- coon who allegedly solicited millions of dollars in bribes from American defense con- tractors." Swarthmore and Haver- ford have withdrawn from the proposal, but Bryn Mawr "is still considering whether to proceed with a grant application to support Arab women students at the college."
