Washington — Prime Minster
Shimon Peres wound up his two-day
visit to Washington with his senior
aides asserting that the next step in
the overall Arab-Israeli peace process
would depend to a large degree on the
United States.
Israeli officials said the Prime
Minister was very pleased by the new
level of "coordination" with the Re-
agan Administration on a two-stage
process aimed at getting direct negoti-
ations off the ground.

They said that the U.S. was ex-
pected to take the lead in the coming
weeks in trying to arrange .a "pre-
paratory committee" which would
then reach agreement on the exact
terms for a formal international con-
ference. This committee, they said,
would determine the scope and par-
ticipants of the international gather-
ing.
U.S. officials said they were con-
sidering various options in the conven-
ing of such a preparatory committee,
including another return visit to the
region by Assistant Secretary for Near
Eastern and South Asian Affairs

THE FIGHTE
FUTURE

Israel's controversial new military
jet, the Lavi, may be the hottest
thing in the air when it takes off
late this year. For now, though, it
has to duck the flak of domestic
and U.S. critics

An Oak Park kosher butcher has
filed a $1.5 million lawsuit against
Sinai Hospital of Detroit and three of
its employees, charging they have dis-
criminated against him because they
refuse to accept him as an alternate
supplier. Also named in the suit are
the Council of Orthodox Rabbis of
Greater Detroit and the Kollel Insti-
tute.
Rabbi David Nerenberg of Lincoln
Kosher Meat Market in Lincoln Cen-
ter also says he may add his landlord
and Detroit's only kosher beef supplier

to the suit. Nerenberg says they may
be part of "a conspiracy" against him.
In his suit filed recently in Wayne
County Circuit Court, Nerenberg
charges that Sinai Hospital and three
of its employees have discriminated
against him because he is a member of
Lubavitch. According to the suit, the
hospital has refused to include him as
a supplier of kosher meat, although his
bid is lower than the present supplier,
Superior Kosher Meat Market in Oak
Park.
Nerenberg charges in the suit
, that Sinai, vice president of operations
Alan J. Bleyer, and Sinai employees
