Friday, October 31, 1980 33 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Justice Department Orders Trifa Deportation Hearing on Nov. 18 WASHINGTON (JTA) — The Department of Justice moved Tuesday to deport to Romania the alleged Nazi war criminal Valerian Trifa and a hearing was set for Nov. 18 before a U.S. immi- gration judge in Detroit. Trifa, bishop of the Romanian Orthodox Church, had voluntarily surrendered his certificate of naturalization on Aug. 25 shortly before the scheduled trial of the department's suit to revoke his citizen- ship on grounds he had il- legally entered the United States by concealing par- ticipation in the'persecution of Jews in Romania in World War II. A press statement issued by the department said that its charges against Trifa in- cluded allegations he had encouraged and partici- pated in the persecution of Jews and Christians in Bucharest in January 1941. against Trifa was in May 1975 when denaturaliza- tion proceedings were insti- tuted. Last September, fol- JERUSALEM (JTA) - le Supreme Court issued an interim injunction last week barring the deporta- tion of Mayors Fand Kawasme of Hebron and Mohammed Milhim of Halhoul pending a final de- cision on their appeal. Premier Menahem Begin, as Defense Minister, and Maj. Gen. Binyamin Ben- Eliezer, commander of the West Bank, informed the court that they would abide by the order issued by Jus- tice Miriam Ben Porat. The injunction does not affect the deportation order which is being appealed, but enjoins the army from tak- ing unilateral steps against the two mayors before the judicial process is corn"- pleted. The court secretariat will schedule a session to deal with the ap- peal. Ben Porat said she is- sued the interim injunc- tion in the interests of "public order" and to avoid "unnecessary anx- iety by the mayors." Kawasme and Milhim, who were expelled from Israel-held territory last May on grounds that they had incited a terrorist act, were permitted to re- turn a week ago to file an appeal with the military government's review board. The latter decided last week that there Were insuf- ficient grounds to lift the deportation order. Mean- while, the mayors remain in custody near the Allenby i it be- even a greater threat. The Pentagon and the State Department both said in the past months that the additional equipment would not be a menace to Israel and stressed that al- tered circumstances in the Middle East required that Saudi Arabia be allowed the additional equipment. Carter was also, quoted over the weekend as making a pledge on the U.S. stand in the United Nations. "Whenever in the future the United Nations is mis- used or abused on Israeli- Arab-issues with malicious, unfair and one-sided resolu- tions we will oppose them and in the Security Council we will veto them," he said. "I want to make it clear again that we will not per- mit any isolation of Isarel in other United Nations organizations nor will we allow the UN to be used as a propaganda organ for the Palestine Liberation Organization." Meanwhile, in Belgrade, the 21st general conference of UNESCO adopted a reso- lution to assist the PLO and other "liberation move- ments" in improving their propuganda capability. The U.S. representative, William Harley, backed by the British and West Ger- many, warned that this resolution and other budget resolutions pushed through by the Soviet and Third World bloc countries, would cause "widespread political problems - and "move UN- ESCO in a most unhelpful direction." PLO chief Yasir Arafat addressed the conference on a resolution denouncing Is- rael. 545- 1300 ELECT DAVID The original U.S. action Tian University Michigan REGENT Bridge.

Carter Won't Give Saudis Equipment to Enhance F-15 WASHINGTON (JTA) — President Carter has de- cided that his Administra- tion will not provide equip- ment to enhance the range and combat capability of the 60 American F-15 fighters proi;rided to Saudi Arabia. The President made known his decision in a radio interview with RKO General Broadcasting ...last week. The transcript was made available on the Presidential press plane. Political observers here pointed out that the deci- sion, which has been de- layed since last spring, was an apparent policy change aimed at reassuring Jewish voters in the last few days before the Presidential elec- tion. Carter said in the interview, "There will be absolutely no change in the assurance given to the Congress in 1978 by (Defense) Secretary (Harold) Brown, acting under my instructions, on the sale of F-15s to the _ Saudi Arabians. In ac- ordance with those as- urances, we will not agree to provide offen- sive capabilities for the planes that might be used against Israel." Brown told Congress two years ago in seeking to ob- tain Congressional ap- proval for the sale of the 60 planes that the planes would not be improved to the point where they could menace Israel. Friends of Israel pointed out that the planes could be used even without the addi- tional bomb racks and re- ' fueling equipment against Israel and that the addi- tional equipment would en- able them to fly long-range missions against Israel ,and 1/2 blk.
