Yordim Situation
Not Frightening':
WZO Chairman

NEW YORK — In a
Jan. 18 interview on the TV
program "Israel Vision"
Leon Dulzin, chairman of
the executives of the Jewish
Agency and the World
Zionist Organization, em-
phasized that the number of
Israeli yordim (emigre's) in
the United States, when
viewed in the proper
perspective, was neither
abnormal nor frightening.
Dulzin said there were some
270,000 Yordim in the U.S.
"Wherever there is a
great deal of immigration
there is emigration," Dulzin
pointed out. As a case in
point he cited the experi-
ence of the United States
during the years 1906-1928.
During these years, Dulzin
said, "approximately 28
percent left the United
States for -other nations.
But, less than 10 percent of
Israel's population of
3,250,000 has left the coun-
try during the 33 years of
statehood," he said.

tives of American Jewish
agencies, newspaper editors
and members of the two
main BHC concentrations,
in Dimona and Arad, as well
as local townspeople in both
cities.
In its report, the group
declared it had found "no of-
ficial racism in Israel." Rus-
tin and Alexander stressed
this key conclusion at a
press conference on Tues-
day. But the report goes on
to say that the practices of
immigration police at the
airport entry point "risks
being perceived as racist no
matter what explanations
are given."
Blacks arriving in Israel
are weeded out of lines and
subjected to apparently dis-
criminatory treatment and
questioning, the report
says, and "such behavior
encourages anti-Israel
propaganda and creates
conflict between American
Jews and American blacks."
Rustin revealed that
anti-Israel groups in
Washington are cur-
rently collating the tes-
timonies of black visitors
to Israel, and these af-
fidavits could be used
against Israel in the fu-
ture. Many of these har-
rassments are perpet-
rated against bona fide
Christian pilgrims, he
noted.
He and his colleagues
demanded "extremely im-
peccable conduct" and "dig-
nity" on the part of immi-
gration officials who go
about their unchallenge-
able duty to prevent illegal
entry of undesirable aliens.
The report also urges Is-
rael "to make a prompt deci-
sion defining the status of
these persons." Long delays
had impinged on their
human rights, the group
felt. Its own recom-
mendations were that the
BHC people be given tem-
porary work permits and
that efforts to provide them
with adequate housing con-

Arab children.

Givat Haviva center in Is-
rael, a center for Arab, Afri-
can and Asian studies
which is headed by Yitzhak
Patish, a former Israeli am-
bassador to Vienna, and
Muhamad Watad, an Arab
journalist and politician.
The center offers seminars
for Jews and Arabs to help
both reach a better under-
standing between the two
peoples.

My advice is to consult
the lives of other men as we
would a looking-glass, and
from thence fetch examples
for our own imitation.

to air his personal view.
"I will not let the question
of color obscure my belief
in democracy and
abhorrence of dictators
... If the Black Hebrews
do not abide by Israeli
laws and intend to re-
plact the present order of
theings, they are a threat
to the state ...
"Carter is a dictator and
dictators don't have the
same moral principles as
democratic leaders. H . r
and Stalin were capab
doing almost anything."
He urged the government
to diffuse Carter's control by
spreading out the BHC —
exactly the reverse of the
recent Glass Committee
recommendations that the
whole cult be located in an
isolated site in the Negev.
All those currently in Israel
should be given the legal
right to live anywhere in
the country providing they
abide by the laws of the
land, Rustin maintained.

tinue.
On the controversial mat-
ter of Carter's power over
the BHC, the group merely
noted in an "addendum"
that "our concern for human
rights extends to those
which may be denied to the
members of BHC by its
leader."
The addendum noted too
a "recent indication of a
spirit of cooperation and
compromise" between the
BHC and the Israeli
authorities, but for. the mo-
ment the group regarded
these indications "with
some skepticism."
The BHC began arriv-
ing in the country from
Liberia, where it still
maintains a large com-
munity, 10 years ago.
Carter and others de-
clared then and sub-
sequently that the BHC
would eventually take
over the country from the
Israeli Jews who are not
the truly chosen people.

Alexander Allen told
newsmen that his own ob-
servation in Liberia led him
to believe that there is "a
potential for good" in the
BHC — provided that its ex-
tremist ideology can be
exorcised.
Rustin told the press con-
ference that in view of the
BHC's ideology "we can
fully appreciate Israel's
anxiety," and he agreed
that an underlying theme of
the group's findings was
that Israel is justified in
keeping additional BHC
members out of the country.
BASIC recommends in its
report to the BHC that it
"implement its pledge not to
permit an increase of its
membership except by
childbirth, and to cooperate
with the Israeli authorities"
in preventing illegal entry
of others.
Rustin in his Jerusalem
Post interview said he
had a "moral obligation"
