Oil Weapon Use
NEW YORK — Syria and
the Palestine Liberation
Organization asked the
Arab League this week to
cut oil shipments' to the
U.S., Canada and Western
Europe if those countries do
not force Israel to give up
"occupied Arab lands."
The Arab League meet-
ing in Jordan was told that
the Arab countries should
cut oil exports to the West-
ern nations by 25 percent
beginning in 1981 if pres-
sure was not brought
against Israel.

End WZO Party Structure: Max Fisher
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
American Jewish leader
Max 'Fisher of Detroit,
called on the World Zionist
Organization to overhaul
its structure which is based
on political parties.
Fisher, who is chairman
of the Jewish ' Agency's
board of governors,
attended the agency's an-
nual assembly in Jerusalem
and also addressed the
meeting of the Zionist Gen-
eral Council which preceded
it.
Fisher claimed that the
party system is an anac-
hronism which has re-
peatedly proven
detrimental to the Jewish
Agency. "We have seen how
party politics can interfere
with the effective, function-
ing of the WZO and the
Jewish Agency," Fisher
said in a speech to the coun-
cil.
Leon Dulzin, chairman
of the WZO and Jewish
Agency Executives, pro-
posed a "retreat" next
fall where all of the 62
members of the agency's
board of governors
would study the issue in
depth. Fisher said he was
encouraged by that re-

sponse.
In his speech to the coun-
cil, Fisher spoke of "good
men — men of high qualifi-
cations and excellence" who
are excluded from key posts
"because they are from the
wrong party."
Fisher recalled the tough
battles he and other UJA
leaders had with the WZO
establishment over the
years on key appointments.
Most recently, he and his
close colleagues of the UJA
vetoed two nominees of
Premier Menahem Begin
for the office of WZO Trea-
surer — Rafael Kotlowitz
and Yoram Aridor.
They held out for the ap-
pointment of Laborite
Akiva Levinsky who, ac-
cording to all accounts, has
been a marked success in
that post.
Similarly, Fisher dis-
closed that it was at his
insistence that certain
ranking Jewish Agency
officials — among them
Aliya Department Direc-
tor Yehuda Dominitz —
retained their posts de-
spite the wishes of the
chairmen of their de-
partments to replace
them with political ap-
pointees.
"But the time has come to
take a leap forward" to re-
duce the influence of the
political party structure in
Zionist affairs, he said. He
has consistently played
down the traditional differ-
entiation between
"Zionists" and "non-
Zionists" within the Jewish
Agency.
"There are no non-
Zionists in the Jewish
Agency," he said in his
speech to the General Coun-
cil. He explained that all the
so-called "non-Zionists" be-:
lieve equally with the
Zionists in Jewish survival,
in maintaining the Jewish
heritage and in the cen-
trality of Israel in Jewish
life.
Moreover, he said, the
Jewish national and com-
munal organizations in the
Diaspora, especially in
--North America, are
engaged in "Zionist" work
— building up young lead-
ership, reaching out to the
campuses, expanding
