Morris Athitay, AIPAC's executive secretary, noted that the 600 delegates from 37 states who registered for the conference constituted an unprecedented attendance for an AIPAC opening session. Israeli Minister of Justice Shmuel Tamir cautioned American Jewish commu- nity leaders that "the secu- rity of Israel, the very exist- ence of Israel" are at stake in the next phase of the Egyptian-Israeli-American negotiations opening in El Arish May 26.

Packwood aroused storms of applause in his series of attacks on the Carter Ad- ministration's Middle East policy. He pointed out that "at a time when we should be strengthening Israel, Harold Saunders (assistant secretary of state for Near East and South Asian Af- fairs) was telling the Arabs on the West Bank — 'hold on — we will get Israel out of the West Bank like we did in Sinai.'
