GOP backs Israel
Continued from Page 1
The platform also calls terrorism
"a new form of warfare against the
democracies." It points out that Rea-
gan "has put the United Nations on
notice that the United States will
strongly oppose the use of the U.N. to
foster anti-Semitism, Soviet espion-
age, and hostility to the United
States.
"In another section, the platform
says that "the Republican Party
commends President Reagan for ac-
cepting the honorary chairmanship
of the campaign to erect a U.S.
Holocaust memorial in Washington,
D.C. and supports the efforts of the
U.S. Holocaust Council in erecting
such a museum and educational cen-
ter."
Support for Soviet Jewry is reaf-
firmed at the end of the section on the
Soviet Union.
Meanwhile, Richard Fox of
Philadelphia, chairman of the Na-
tional Jewish Coalition, and other
long time Jewish Republicans said
they believe that Reagan can in-
crease the 40 percent of the Jewish
vote he received in 1980.
As a sign of growing Jewish sup-
port for the Republicans, the number
of Jewish delegates and alternates
totaled 104 out of the 4,470 alter-
nates and delegates or 2.3 percent,
according to official Republican fig-
ures. In previous years there were
never more than 40.
Max Fisher, of Detroit, who has
been active in Republican campaigns
since 1960, said a "revolution" has
occurred in Jewish participation in
the GOP. He said he believes the
major reason is that Jews have be-
come more conservative and are
troubled by such issues as quotas and
the recent signs of anti-Semitism ex-
pressed by Rev. Jesse Jackson during
the Democratic campaign for the
Presidency.
Edgar Bronfman, president of
the World Jewish Congress, said that
he believed President Reagan will do
"very well" in the Jewish community
in this year's Presidential election
"better even" than in 1980 when he
received approximately 40 percent of
the Jewish vote.
In a related development, Wal-
ter Mondale, the Democratic Party
Presidential candidate, told four
prominent Jewish leaders that he
would "rather lose the election with
you (the Jewish community) than
win it without you," according to a
report in this week's Long Island
Jewish World. The meeting, de-
scribed as a private get-together, was
held in Mondale's home in Min-
nesota.
Attending the meeting were
Larry Weinberg, chairman of the
board of the American Israel Public
Jewish delegates and
alternates number 104.
Previously, there were
never more than 40.
Affairs Committee (AIPAC); Tom
Dine, AIPAC's executive director;
Theodore Mann, president of the
American Jewish Congress; and
Kenneth Bialkin, chairman of the
Conference of Presidents of Major
American Jewish Organizations and
president of the Anti-Defamation
League of B'nai B'rith.
The meeting was slated for only
30 minutes but lasted for three hours,
and although a host of issues were
discussed, most of the discussion was
confined to the anti-Semitic out-
bursts that occurred during the
Democratic primary campaign, the
Jewish World reported. ,
In a related development, the
Detroit Free Press reported Sunday
that Michigan Democratic Sen. Carl
Levin has received $140,063 from a
group of 54 political action commit-
tees that back Israel.
According to the Free Press re-
port, the committees have names
that don't reveal their political pur-
pose.
In 1982, Michigan's other Sena-
tor, Donald Riegle, received $30,000
from the pro-Israel PACs. Other
Michigan recipients include Rep.
Mark Siljander (R-Three Rivers),
$16,800; Reps. Howard Wolpe (D-
Lansing), $8,500; Guy Vander Jagt of
Luther, chairman of the Republican
Congressional Campaign Commit-
tee, $5,300; William Broomfield (R-
Birmingham), $5,000; Robert Carr,
(D-Lansing), $1,000; and Sander
Levin (D-Southfield), $250.
