Anti-Israel Ad Queried

NEW YORK — The
American Jewish Congress
has asked the Department
of Justice to investigate the
source of funds used to place
an anti-Israel advertise-
ment in major newspapers
across the country by a mys-
tery group calling itself
"Concerned Americans for
Peace."
In a letter to Attorney
General William French
Smith, the executive direc-
tor of AJCongress, Henry
Siegman, suggested that
funds for the July 11 adver-
tising campaign may have
come from Arab sources and
may involve violation of the

JERUSALEM — Israel
Radio reported last week
that the Israel Defense
Forces had captured the Be-
irut National Museum in
west Beirut only after a
slow and careful attack on
the building and its sur-
roundings, to avoid damag-
ing the structure and its
contents.
But when the soldiers fi-
nally entered the building
to ensure that it was free of
terrorists they found it was
a fortified strongpoint more
than a museum, with
sandbag emplacements and
guns and artillery pieces
mounted on statue bases.
The museum area, the
nearby Hippodrome racet-
rack and the wooded Beirut
forest area gives the Israeli
forces a considerable tacti-
cal advantage, as the region
commands the surrounding
city area from which ter-
rorists have been firing at
Israeli forces and the Chris-
tian area in Beirut.

elusion of the meeting
when the clench-fisted
Moslems and blacks,
chanting "viva the PLO,"
clashed with a thousand
Jewish students who had
attended a pro-Israel
rally nearby.
Twelve university stu-
dents were suspended in
connection with the clashes
when security men had to
separate the BSS and the
Jewish students. Reasons
given for the suspension in-
cluded using insulting lan-
guage, punching, provoca-
tive behavior and disobey-
ing an order of Vice Chan-
cellor D. J. Du Plessis.
Du Plessis had to inter-
vene in the protest, and be-
gged the students to refrain

from violence. When he
asked them to disperse they
were reluctant to do so and
he consequently handed
some of them over to secu-

rity officials.
The students now face a
hearing by a disciplinary
committee which will de-
termine their future.
