Romberg conceded that
"members of at least one in-
ternational terrorist group
reportedly are still in Iraq,
apparently under certain
constraints. We will con-
tinue to register our strong
view that there can be no
advantage to Iraq, or to

terrorist threat, in permit-
ting terrorists to transit or
reside in Iraq.
"However, we see no
prospect that such punitive
measures as withholding
certain U.S. exports to Iraq
will further the objectives of
our vigorous and promising
diplomatic efforts on this is-
sue."

German Jewish
Cemetery Ruined
BONN (JTA) — Police
are investigating the van-
dalization of one of the four
Jewish cemeteries in Col-
ogne where some 60 graves-
tones were overturned and
partially or completely de-
molished last week.
A spokesman for the local
Jewish community said it
was the most serious desec-
ration of a Jewish burial
ground in Germany since
World War II.
The upended stones were
not daubed with anti-
Semitic slogans as is often
the case in such incidents.
Ironically, the Cologne
cemetery, which is 300
years old, survived the Nazi
era intact.

LONDON — Tourists re-
turning from Prague have
told the International
Council of Jews from
Czechoslovakia that memo-
rial tablets inside the an-
cient Pinkas Synagogue are
disintegrating from the
dampness plaguing the
structure.
A guide told the tourists
that there were no plans to
fix the relatively-new tab-
let's memorializing the
77,000 victims of the
Holocaust in Bohemia and
Moravia.
A spokesman for the
Prague Jewish community,
however, said a more com-
plete list of Jewish victims
was being compiled, but re-
storation of the tablets "will
take considerable time."
TEL AVIV (JNI) — There
are probably only about
75,000 Israelis living in the
greater New York area, ac-
cording to Israeli Consul
General Naphtali Lavie.
"Reports that there are
nearly 500,000 Israelis in
the U.S. are a myth," he
said.
