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- An Extraordinary Opportunity For Substantial Savings On Men's Clothing And Shoes By Today's Most Important Names In Men's Fashions: • Givenchy • Adolfo • Jean-Paul Germain • Tiger of Sweden San Remo Le Baron Hugo Boss Lou Myles Rubin Bros. • Bally • Johnston & Murphy • Lanvin • Zegna 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 AFL-CIO Head Cited by Israel Large Selection of DRESS and SPORT SHIRTS and TIES 1110 Cks CLOTHES 5 0 0 % NEW YORK — Lane Kirkland, president of the AFL-CIO, has been desig- nated as the second reci- pient of the Golda Meir Leadership Award which is presented annually for dis- tinguished service in sup- port of Israel's economic progress.
