A spokesman for the World Zionist Organization — American Section, an- other organization that has not reversed its decision, agreed that the "conces- sions made by the sponsors of the event were good," but said that his organization "was not mollified, not ap- peased, nor seduced" by the revised platform. He stressed that the changes did not affect the "careless" scheduling of the event for Saturday and the anti-Israel leanings of some of the rally's sponsors such as Rev. Jesse Jackson and former Sen. James Abourezk, who is now chairman of the American-Arab Anti- Discrimination Committee. At the press conference in Washington, Rep. Wal- ter Fauntroy (District of Columbia), national di- rector of the march, said that the day chosen for the march "was the date closest to the Aug. 28 date" of the original march. He noted there were ob- jections to the broadening of concerns from the areas of jobs and freedom, "to in- clude opposition to the es- calating arms race and the advocacy of non-violent resolutions to conflicts around the world." "Some Jewish organiza- tions," he said, believing that the call to peace might be interpreted as an attack on Israel, "requested assur- ances that the legislative package to be agreed upon will not explicitly or im- plicitly call for cuts in the economic or military aid package to Israel." Fauntroy and the rest of the march leadership, which included Coretta Scott King, wife of the slain civil rights leader; Benja- min Hooks, executive &rec- tor of the National Associa- tion for the Advancement of Colored People; and Dr. Joseph Lowery, president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, "responded to (the) concern" of the Jewish organizations, Fauntroy said. "It is not our intention to single out Israel," he said. "We worked on a revision of a proposed draft of the peace posi- tion paper so as not to appear to single out Is- rael for attack." The letter from Faun- troy and Mrs. King also tried to allay fears that the march would turn into an anti-Israel rally. maste!charg • • that the name implies."
