JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Premier Menahem Begin
met Monday with Jewish
Agency Executive chair-
man Leon Dulzin on the
problem of Soviet Jewish
"dropouts" — Soviet emi-
grants who choose to im-
migrate to destinations
other than Israel on reach-
ing Western Europe. Minis-
ter of Immigration and Ab-
sorption David Levy and
Jewish Agency Immigra-
tion Department head
Raphael Kotlowitz were
also present at the meeting.

Jewish organizations in the

ing on ways to reduce the
dropout rate," Dulzin said
after the meeting. Levy
added that alternative ways
of reducing the number of
dropouts were discussed,
but declined to specify.
One of the ideas brought
by the immigration officials
to Begin was that if the
dropouts knew more about
Israel and about what Israel
can offer Soviet Jewish
emigrants on reaching Vie-
nna, more of them would
choose to immigrate to Is-
rael.
On other matters, the
World Zionist Organiza-
tion Executive issued a
statement protesting the
ideas of Prof. Raanan
Weitz, head of its settle-
ments department, on the
possibility of establish-
ing a Palestinian state on
the West Bank and the
Gaza Strip. The Execu-
tive noted that the timing
of the pronouncement on
the eve of the Camp
David summit was "un-
fortunate and mistaken."
Dulzin added that the
London Security Tightened
LONDON (JTA) — El Al
has changed the positions of
its departure desks at
Heathrow Airport because
they were felt to be un-
necessarily vulnerable to
terrorist attacks.
The move involved an ex-
change of positions with the
Kuwaiti and Pakistani air-
lines following the Aug. 20
Arab terrorist attack here
in which one El Al flight
attendant was killed and
eight persons were injured.
An Arab terrorist in-
volved in the attack on an El
Al bus outside a London
hotel warned a London
magistrate to release him,
"otherwise something bad
will happen to you."
The Arab, 22-year-old
Fand al-Mihyi, was re-
manded to a week's jail
after being accused of
murdering El Al flight
attendant Irit Gidron in
the attack.
Replying to Mihyi's
threat, the magistrate said:
"Is that an application for
bail or a threat?" When
Mihyi replied it was a
threat, the magistrate or-
dered him returned to
prison.
In a bid for further infor-
mation about Mihyi and his
dead accomplice, police
authorized the publication
of their photographs, which
were splashed across the
London evening newspap-
ers. In previous cases, police
have prevented publication
of the portraits of suspected
terrorists.
Although Britain has re-
jected charges of lax secu-
rity, there has, in fact, been
a sharp increase in the
number of armed police
posted outside the Israeli
Embassy, El Al offices and
other buildings.
However, the govern-
ment has turned down an
Israeli request — re-
peated in a BBC inter-
view by Premier
Menahem Begin—for the
admission of Israeli
armed guards on British
soil. Avraham Kidron,
the Israeli Ambassador is
expected to seek further
early talks on security
with the British
authorities.
In June, Begin requested
permission from the British
government to allow El Al
security guards to carry
weapons, but the request
was denied. This was offi-
cially revealed by the Prime
Minister's office as a means
of clarifying recent conflict-
ing reports on corre-
spondence between Begin
and British Prime Minister
James Callaghan on the is-
sue.
The announcement was a
move to refute the British
Foreign Office's assertion
that Callaghan was never
asked by Israel to recon-
sider the British ban on
arms for El Al security per-
sonnel.
In addition to a letter sent
to Callaghan after the June
terrorist attack at Paris'
Orly Airport, Israel's Am-
bassador to London, Av-
raham Kidron, twice raised
the issue with the British.
WZO Executive does not fol-
low its own foreign policy,
and that if Weitz wants to
remain in his position he
must remain subordinate to
the government's decisions.
Weitz expressed surprise
by the reaction to his views.
Noting that his opinions
closely followed those of the
Labor Party, Weitz sent a
message to Labor Party
head Shimon Peres, in
which he said he did not ex-
press support for the estab-
lishment of a Palestinian
state.
Calling the reaction to his
views "an artificial uproar,"
he said he merely pointed to
the establishment of a /
Palestinian state as a possi-
ble alternative. Meanwhile,
the Likud Knesset faction's
executive demanded
Weitz's resignation and
noted that the Executive
decision on the Weitz issue
was "insufficient."
