The names of the suspects continued to be withheld by court order but most are believed to be resi- dents of the West Bank with close ties to the Gush Emunim and other militant settler groups. The court deferred until next Thursday a decision on the prosecution request that all of the suspects remain in custody pending trial. The court session at which the charges were read was closed. Six of the suspects were charged with murder and attempted murder in con- nection with the machine- gun and grenade attack last July on the Islamic College in Hebron in which three Arab students were killed and 33 were wounded. Nine suspects were charged with attempted murder, attempted sabot- age, illegal possession of arms and causing serious bodily harm. All were charged with membership and activity in an illegal terrorist organization. The sabotage charges stemmed from the planting of powerful explosives in five Arab-owned buses in East Jerusalem, timed to explode at the peak of rush hour on April 27. The at- tempt was foiled at the last minute by security agents acting on inside informa- tion. The bodily harm charges were believed related to the 1980 car bombings that maimed Mayor Bassam Shaka of Nablus and Mayor Karim Khallaf of Ramal- lah. The accused were be- lieved acting in retaliation for the murder of six yeshivah students by Arab terrorists in Hebron a month earlier. Several suspects were charged with planting bombs in mosques in Heb- ron and others were conspir- ing to blow up the El Aksa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock,c- two of the holiest shrines of Islam, on the Temple Mount in East Jerusalem. The indictments marked the close of one of the longest and most sensitive criminal investigations in Israel's history that appar- ently confirmed the long- rumored existence of a Jewish terrorist under- ground among the settlers in the occupied territories. The settlers, numbering 30,000, are a major consti- tuency of the ruling Likud- led government. On Tuesday, 300 settlers and supporters of the Gush emunim staged a rally out- side Jerusalem police head- quarters in solidarity with the suspects. A message, purported to have come from one of the suspects, was read at the rally. It re- ferred to the detained per- sons as "innocent Jews whose lives are dedicated to Zionist action" and Claimed they were arrested "for ac- tion they have taken for the sake of the security of the State of Israel and its citi- zens." The message complained that the suspects were being treated as "terrorists" and urged their supporters to "protest against the distor- tion" and to convince the authorities that whatever actions were taken, albeit illegal, were the result of weakness and ineptitude on the part of the government in protecting Jewish settlers against Arab vio- lence. The message was signed "Prisoner of Zion." A Maariv reporter who claimed he gained access to the detainees in the Jerusalem jail during visit- ing hours, reported that they told him they did not consider their acts criminal. They blamed former De- fense Minister Ezer Weiz- man for creating a situation in which Jews had to defend themselves. They also charged that under Weizman, the policies of Sheli were im- plemented in the ter- ritories, Maariv reported. Sheli is a small, now de- funct, leftist faction. 4;4 Schaver-supported literary fund aids the WSU Press With the aid of the Morris and Emma Schaver Publi- cation Fund for Jewish Studies, Wayne State Uni- versity Press has been encouraged to publish im- portant Jewish works, with an emphasis on translations from the Yiddish. The newest in the series is Lead Pencil, the stories and sketches by one-time Jewish Daily Forward staff writer Berl Botwinik. There are 20 of the prime Botwinik stories in this vol- ume, and their translator, Philip J. Klukoff, in an in- troductory essay, pays trib- ute to the contributions Botwinik has made to an understanding of Jewish experiences in America, which he presented as fic- tion but which mirrored ac- tual events in the develop- ing American Jewish com- munity. The Botwinik book is dedicated to his daughters and their families. While serving as a memo- rial to the author of the stories in Lead Pencil, it is subtitled Bintel Brief. The reason for the latter is that Abraham Cahan, the famous editor of the For- ward, assigned to Botwinik the duty of responding to the letters that flooded the Yiddish newspaper. The introduction by translator Philip J. Klukoff is an •evaluative tribute to author Berl Botwinik as well as a commentary on the period in American Jewish history during which the personality in his essay be- came an important in- terpreter of Jewish life in the early years of this cen- tury. In the early years of his settlement in New York, Botwinik also was a painter and an orator. As a painter, he earned the title Berele der Mahler — Berel the Painter. He was not only a fresco painter, but was active in unionizing workers and helped create the Painters' Union. In Russia he participated in revolutionary activities and delivered speeches ex- posing Czarism. —P.S. Jewish lobby not just in DC, Senator says Washington (JTA) — Sen. Rudy Boschwitz (R- Minn.) stressed last week that the strength of the Jewish lobby was not due to the representatives of the Jewish organizations in Washington but to the or- ganized Jewish com- munities throughout the United States. "It is the Jews of this country who are willing to be involved who are really the strength of the Jewish lobby, not the few that I hear in Washington," Bos- chwitz told the opening ses- sion of the united Jewish Appeal's national leader- ship conference at the Sheraton-Washington hotel. The session was a joint plenary of the UJA and the Council of Jewish Fed- eration honoring the 70th anniversary of the Ameri- can Jewish Joint Distribu- tion Committee. C-,
