However, the source was quoted to say, if Is- rael is attacked, there is no reason to doubt U.S. readiness to help her. If Israel should initiate dip- lomatic moves on the Palestinian issue, the source added, "it should help cool down any un- rest in the neighboring countries." The source was later identified as Stel.RtiX to the expansionist de- signs of the Soviet Union. Our region has withstood the brutality and call- ousness of the Soviet Union as it seeks to further its expansionist aims." Continuing, Blum de- clared: "Experience shows that when it suits the Soviet Union, it does not hesitate •6 violate the most elementary norms of conduct among na- tions or to place twisted and arbitrary construc- tions on the Charter of the United Nations and its Purposes and Princi- ples. When the Soviet Union's imperialistic and hegemonistic ambitions are concerned, it is pre- pared to ride shamelessly and rough-shod over any state which is in its way." - Last week, former Is- raeli Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan said that the situation in the Mid- dle East was much more • serious than depicted in the press because of the situation in Afghanistan and Iran. Dayan said, "It is very very important for Israel to defuse its conflict with the Moslem world and making progress on the autonomy question would be one way of doing that." There "are a number of local problems," includ- ing autonomy, "whose quick solution would re- move us from the circle of those in conflict with the Moslem world," he said. Dayan denounced the plans to relocate the Elon Moreh settlers to Djebi I Kebir. He called the move "a calamity" costing the government millions of Pounds because the new site has neither strategic nor se- curity value and is isolated in the midst of a densely populated Arab area of the West Bank.

However, Rep. Elizabeth Holtzman (D- NY), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee's sub- committee on immigration, refugees and international law, expressed some reser- vations over the deadline. Holtzman, who has been a leader in efforts to bring al- leged Nazi war criminals to justice, said, "It is a very ambitious goal and I hope it can be met in a way that meets professional standards." However, she said, "I don't want to see meritorious cases closed down to meet a goal." Meanwhile, Sen. Ed- DETROIT DISTRICT JERUSALEM FILM . . .

He said he was "deeply concerned over the sudden transfer of Martin Mendelsohn. It signals this office is still not functioning smoothly nor effectively enough to accomplish the mission for which it was estab- lished." He said his com- mittee "will not abide half-efforts." In Detroit this week, a clerk for Judge Cornelia Kennedy said the judge has denied a defense attorney's request for a review of Judge Kennedy's order blocking a motion for dis- missal in the Trifa case. Archbishop Trifa's ac- tions, which allegedly led to a pogrom in Bucharest. Romania in 1941, were the subject of an ABC-TV News "Closeup" report Sunday evening. Judge Kennedy must now decide whether she will try the case herself — she is now a U.S. Appeals Court judge —and set a trial date . Expert Tells of French Aid in the Nazi 'Final Solution' BONN (JTA) — An ex- pert on Nazi death machin- ery told a Cologne court last week that no "final solu- tion" for French Jewry would have been possible without the collaboration of French institutions and public organizations. Prof. Wolfgang Schemer of the Free University of West Berlin, was testifying at the trial of three accused Nazi war criminals, Kurt Lischka, who was head of the Gestapo in Paris during World War II; Herbert Mar- tin Hagen and Ernest Ein- richsohn. As an example, ScheMer noted that in one wave of arrests 2,500 French policemen took part . Scheffler did not say if he has information on whether the defendants knew what would be the final fate of the Jews they sent to concentra- tion camps. This may be the decisive question in the trial, which started last Oct 23. But Scheffler did testify that Lischka rejected a suggestion by the German army in 1942 that the Jewish inmates be released and that the Red Cross be given information about their arrests.
