AJCampaign Concluding Report Meeting on April 22 - Allied Jewish Campaign division heads and their co-workers will hold a concluding report meeting at the United Hebrew Schools on 12 Mile Road, 8:15 a.m. April 22 for an urgent effort to attain the goal to meet the current needs for Israel and the scores of local and national agencies. The meeting will feature a traditional breakfast during Hol Hamoed Passover. While significant progress was reported at the annual Campaign dinner Arms for Argentinians and Their Apologetics on March 24, contributions are still being sought from persons in the Jewish community who have yet to make their Campaign pledge. The $19,150,000 goal for 1981 was arrived at earlier this year in line with nationwide findings by the 1981 Campaign Planning Task Force of the Council of Jewish Federations and United Jewish Appeal. Additional funds are needed to support Detroit's Project Renewal social reconstruction efforts in the city of Ramla, Israel.

On April 3, Uri Levi, Wayne State campus representa- tive for the American Zionist Youth Foundation, and myself, attended a meeting of the Michigan Chapter of the Organization of Arab Students. While waiting for the guest speaker, Dr. Hatem Husseini of the Palestine Information Center in Washington, D.C., the audi- ence was addressed by a member of the OAS, who asked the audience to write to ABC and complain about the recent "20/20" program on PLO terrorism. He claimed that the program was biased and unobjective. The Jewish community should be aware of the pressure beinc, put on ABC by the Arab community. Those who wish to compliment ABC on the journalistic quality and level of interest of the "20/20" program should write to: ABC, 20/20, 77 W. 66th St., New York, N.Y. 10023. The next speaker at the meeting was Russ Bellant, president of the Student-Faculty Council at Wayne State University. In his statement, Bellant noted how difficult it is to obtain objective news reports because of the "monopoly on media." Spoken to an audience composed almost entirely of Arabs, the implication was obviously that the media are controlled by Jews. Dr. Husseini, realizing that he was speaking to an audience (Continued on Page 33) (Editor's note: The information in this article was provided by University of Michigan student Dan Levy, a member of Students Concerned About a Recurrence.) ANN ARBOR — University of Michigan students and faculty organized a campus protest last week against solicitation letters sent to the community within the last two weeks by the "Legion for the Survival of Freedom" and the "Institute for Historical Review" in California. The letters insist that the Holocaust never took place and offered a book order form for such titles as "Six Million Lost and Found," "The Kangaroo Court of Nuremburg" and "Anne Frank's Diary — a Hoax." University of Michigan groups formed Students Concerned About a Recurrence (SCAR) in response to the letters. Last week, SCAR published a full-page advertisement in the campus news- paper, the Michigan Daily, held a forum on "Hate Groups in the 80s," and held an outdoor campus memorial service for the victims of the Holocaust. The advertisement published in the Michigan Daily on April 1 was signed by more than 300 Jewish and non-Jewish students and faculty, as well as 14 organizations. Entitled "An Open Letter to the University Community," the advertisement was also posted at various campus locations. The advertisement stated: "Recently, many students here at the university have received an affront to their intelligence and moral sensibilities in the form of a letter. The envelope of this letter displayed'the return address of the Legion for the Survival of Freedom but the letter inside identified the sender as the Institute for Historical Review, a West Coast-based organization devoted to rewriting the history of the Second World War. • We are outraged that they deny the existence of anti-Semitism in Nazi Germany. • We are outraged that they claim that Anne Frank's Diary is a forgery. _ • We are outraged that they claim the Nazi furnaces are part of an ancient Jewish fantasy. • We are outraged that they claim that a "Zionist-controlled (read: Jewish-controlled) media and academic establishment have created the 'myth' of the Holocaust in order to lead Americans to war. • We are outraged!

A bi-partisan group of about 80 Congressmen urged the Reagan Administration on Tuesday to review its decision to sell Saudi Arabia additional fuel tanks and Sidewinder air-to-air missiles for the 62 F-15 jets. Strong statements were made by Rep. William oornfield and Senators Carl Levin and Donald Riegle. Rep. James Blanchard (D-Mich.), who along with Rep. Jack Kemp (R-NY) led the move on the House floor, called the proposed sales "foolish and ill-timed." Blanchard said they would "constitute a serious new escalation of arms" in the Mid- dle East and would "ultimately place a much greater security burden on our oldest and staunchest ally in the region, the state of Israel." Blanchard noted further that the sale "represents yet another attempt to court friendship with other nations through the sale of highly sophisticated military weapons." He pointed out JAMES BLANCHARD WILLIAM BROOMFIELD that "the presence of such sophisticated weapons" in Saudi Arabia, which has internal security problems, "could jeopardize U.S. strategic interests and those of our established allies if those weapons fell into the wrong hands." Kemp said the AWACS surveillance planes should not be allowed out of American hands in Saudi Arabia. However, he said he would not be opposed to the sale of other equipment to enhance the capabilities of the Saudi F-15s if the U.S. would get something in return, such as Saudi support of the Camp David agreement. Blanchard pointed out when he had opposed the sale of the F-15 's when it was proposed by the Carter Administration in 1978, "I was concerned that we were not getting any assurances from the Saudis of their willingness to play a role in the peace process. Unfortunately, in the past two years we have received very lit- tle in return for the F-15 s." He noted that the Saudis have not supported the Camp David process, have called for a holy war against Israel during the recent Islamic summit con- ference and "continue to provide massive amounts of funding for the Palestine Liberation Organ- ization." Blanchard added that by giving the Saudis advanced CARL LEVIN DONALD RIEGLE (Continued on Page 5)
