in the Washington Star Oct.
15 said "born-again Protes-
tants are now splitting their
votes" between Carter and
Reagan "despite
endorsements of Reagan by
some leaders of the conser-
vative movement. In fact,
Reagan does more poorly
among born-again voters
than among others.
From the start of his Ad-
ministration, Carter has
had high Jewish visibility
in his appointments, includ-
ing those at the White
House and in his Cabinet
and as ambassadors. He
also focused national atten-
tion on the Holocaust and
Jewish heritage in America
and opened his door to vis-
itors concerned with Jewish
affairs.
On his policy towards
Israel, however, he has
been almost continually
criticized. Early in his
first year as President,
after Saudi Arabians saw

Bill

Broomfield

Our Congressman
for the SOs

During his 24 years in Congress and as
the ranking member of the House For-
eign Affairs Committee, Bill Broom-
field has demonstrated his concern
for the State of Israel and its security.

,sraeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin with
Congressman Broomfield during a meeting of
the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Hassell, Treasurer.

him, the word from Arabs
was "we have an Arab
White House." While
foreign aid under Carter
is almost half the total
given Isral since its
founding, the statisti-
cians seldom note that in-
flation, the payments for
withdrawal from the
Sinai bases, the increases
sponsored in Congress
also have been principal
factors, in that. figure.
In his Clinton, Mass.
speech that, like the Rogers
plan, virtually set back Is-
rael to its insecure 1967
borders, his courting of the
PLO and the U.S. posotions
in the UN Security Council,
his record, Carter watchers
point out, indicates he is op-
posed to meaningful territo-
rial change supporting Is-
rael's security and perma-
nent disqualification of the
PLO in the peace process
with Palestinian Arabs.
Only Anderson among
the candidates appears free
of the albatross of pro-Arab
advocates among his top
aides. Reagan has William
Simon, John Connally and
Robert Fluer on his side.
With Carter are Brzezinski,
George Ball ( who left An-
derson) and Andrew Young
who continues urging- U.S.
recognition of the PLO
without precondition.
In a jibe at President
Ford's 1975 threat to "re-
assess" the U.S. position
toward Israel, Carter says
he will never reassess his
policy toward Isarel. The
facts, however, analysts
note, indicate he already
has many times. This in-
cludes his appeasement of
the PLO by willingness to
water down Security Coun-
cil Resolution 242, his com-
parison of the PLO with the
American civil rights
movement, his view that
East Jerusalem is "occu-
pied territory" (that con-
flicts with his statement
about. "undivided"
Jerusalem).
In summary, the cam-
paign is ending on waves
of uncertainty and con-
fusion for many Jewish
voters plus a warning to
them from some in Wash-
ington who urge "don't
put all your eggs in one
basket." In practical
political advice, orie ob-
server noted the absence
of respectable support
for any major candidate
could prove damaging to
Israel.
Whether he wins or loses,
the disappointed candidate
who believes he has gone
all-out for Israel but was re-
jected could naturally have
feelings of ingratitude and
make them felt in later

Every man is valued in
this world as he shows by
his conduct that he wishes
to be valued.

Spokesmen Battle
for the Candidates

Spokesmen for the three
major candidates for the
Presidency disagreed before
an audience of leading cler-
gymen from across the
country last week . on
whether the United States
has the "credibility" under
the Carter Administration
to press for peace in the
Middle East.
Robert Hunter, director of
Middle East affairs for the
National Security Council
and an adviser to President
Carter; Dr. Raymond
Tanter, a University of
Michigan political scientist
who is one of Republican
candidate Ronald Reagan's
Mideast advisers; and J.
Owen Zurhellen Jr., a
former diplomat who sub-
stitute for Patrick Lucey,
independent candidate
John Anderson's Vice
Presidential running mate,
spoke at the headquarters of
the Anti-Defamation
Leagus of Bnai Brith in
separate consecutive ses-
sions.
Their appearance was
part of a two-day National
Religious Convocation in
Support of Israel.
The Rev. John Paw-
likowski of the Catholic
Theological Union in
Chicago, stressed that
those present wanted to
express "our concern for
Israel" and the continua-
tion of American policy
in support of Israel
"whoever may be
elected."
Both Lucey, whose speech
was read by Zurhellen, and
Tanter, charged that Car-
ter's concern with reaching

has caused a lack of pro-

Hunter said that Carter has
spent more time on seeking
peace in the Mideast than
on any other problem of his
Presidency and stressed the
President's accomplish-
__

ments in bringing about the
Camp David accords.
Tanter cahrged that the
Carter Adminsitration had
