and Israel listed on the
program. On the Palesti-
nian question, he stated
that "we can't write it off by
labelling all Palestinians as
terrorists. The question will
have to be dealt with" in a
peace settlement.
Former Detroit City
Council President Carl
Levin told the audience that
the stranglehold of Arab oil
on U.S. foreign policy was
dramatically seen in the
Senate vote on the sale of
U.S. fighter aircraft to
Saudi Arabia and Egypt.
He called it "a tragic
change" in U.S. policy. He
said Jerusalem can never be
divided again, and fully
supported the 1976 Democ-
ratic Platform plank calling
for the U.S. Embassy to be
re-located from Tel Aviv to
Jerusalem.
Levin blasted Carter's
policies of supporting
Egypt's call for Israeli
concessions before peace
talks resume and he said
it was foolish for Carter
to think that the U.S. can
dictate conditions for a
peace settlement.
"Carter showed no sen-
sitivity when he used the
catch-words "legitimate
rights of the Palestinians,' "
Levin said. He emphasized
that the U.S. must do every-
thing in its power to support
human rights in the Soviet
Union, but at the same time
continue the Strategic
Arms Limitation Talks be-
cause "both are vital to the
world."
race for Michigan's U.S. Se-
nate seat.
Nearly 1,000 persons at-
tended the rally at Cong.
Shaarey Zedek that was
sponsored by the Bnai Brith
Council of Metropolitan De-
troit, the Metropolitan De-
troit Chapter of Hadassah
and the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America - Detroit
District.
Richard Zuckerman read
a statement for Senator
Robert Griffin, the Republi-
can incumbent, in which
Griffin defended his record
of support for Israel.
His Republican oppo-
nent, Oakland County
Prosecutor L. Brooks
Patterson, lashed Griffm
for being able to attend a
Dearborn fund-raiser
Monday evening, but not
being present at the can-
didates' rally. He also at-
tacked Griffin's support
of the U.S. jet sale to
Saudi Arabia and Egypt.
Democratic candidate
Tom Derezinski also did not
attend.
Each candidate was given
seven minutes to outline his
views on specific program
questions concerning the
Middle East, Israel and U.S.
Middle East policies.State
Senator John Otterbacher
said U.S. foreign policy
should be based on human
rights, openness and fair
play. "It is not necessary for
me to patronize Israel, even
before an audience like this,
when talking about the
friendship between the U.S.
and Israel."
Observer and Eccentric
Newspapers publisher Phil
Power said the U.S. must be
clear in its foreign policy
goals and objectives, consis-
tent, and measured but firm
in its responses. He lashed
the Carter Administration
in all three of these areas.
During audience question-
ing he advocated firm
economic pressure on the
Soviet Union in measured
responses to its human
rights and foreign policy de-
cisions.
He said the U.S. has a
moral commitment and
that he supports many of
President Carter's
policies on human rights,
but I deplore his inabil-
ity to implement them."
He also "condemned"
Carter for not establish-
ing a consensus among
his foreign policy
spokesmen.

State Rep. Paul Rosen-
baum said the U.S. should
trade its wheat for Russian
oil "and let the Russians de-
pend on Arab oil for a
while." He said the U.S. has
had no foreign policy for the
last 10 years, while making
policy out of expediency.
He asked why Israel
should believe in U.S.
commitments to its sec-
urity when all Israel has
to do is look at U.S. bro-
ken promises in Africa
and other areas. He said
Jerusalem must always
be and has always been
Israel's capital, citing its
Jewish majority since be-
fore 1900 and links to the
Jewish people.
Rosenbaum blasted ter-
rorism and "any public offi-
cial" who would condone it,
a reference to Detroit Mayor
Coleman Young's state-
ment on the PLO after his
recent trip to Israel.
U.S. May Use
Israel Farming
Development
JERUSALEM
Ameri-
can agricultural scientists
are going to adopt a method
of eliminating plant root
diseases by use of solar
energy, developed by scien-
tists at the Hebrew Univer-
sity Faculty of Agriculture
in Rehovot in cooperation
with the Israel Ministry of
Agriculture.
Researchers at the Uni-
versity of California at
Davis have decided, after
two years of testing, that
the Israeli method is effec-
tive in eliminating various
plant root diseases, espe-
cially in cotton.
The Hebrew University
team, headed by Prof.
Yaacov Katan and includ-
ing Avihayil Greenberger,
Avshalom Greenstein and
Haviv Alon, started de-
veloping the method four
years ago, using transpa-
rent polyethylene sheets as
ground covers. The sun's
rays coming through the
plastic sheets heat up the
soil, thereby killing many
disease-causing organisms
and destroying various
weeds. Many Israeli far-
mers have adopted this
method.
U.S. Rep. Richard Van-
derVeen said that Israel
must retain portions of the
Arab lands she occupied in
1967 and that Israel's sec-
urity cannot tolerate a PLO
state on the West Bank.
VanderVeen
was
criticized by several ques-
tions from the audience and
by Levin for a statement
published in Tuesday's De-
troit News. Levin attacked
VanderVeen for calling
Soviet citizens wishing to
emigrate "radicals." He was
also questioned about his
branding Israel Prime
Minister Menahem Begin
as an "extreme hardliner."
In the Detroit News ar-
ticle, VanderVeen said a
Palestinian homeland
"does not necessarily
have to be on territory
occupied by Israel,
though that seems to be
the most logical place."
Before audience ques-
tions were permitted, two
questions were asked by
each of the sponsoring or-
ganizations. The question-
ers were Ralph Miller of the
Bnai Brith Council, Mrs.
Belle Rubin of Bnai Brith
Women, Inge Kramer and
Michelle Goldstein of
Hadassah, and Louis
Panush and Hymie Cutler
of the ZOD.

NJ Candidates
Lash President
NEWARK, N.J. (JTA) —
President Carter's Middle
East policy was criticized by
both the Democratic and
Republican candidates for
the United States Senate
from New Jersey.
Bill Bradley, the Democ-
ratic candidate, and Jeffrey
Bell, his Republican oppo-
nent, are seeking the seat
now held by Clifford Case
(R-NJ). They appeared in a
debate Friday conducted by
an ad hoc committee made
up of representatives of var-
ious New Jersey Jewish or-
ganizations.
