Shamir
Continued from Page 1
He wrote the letter "to ex-
press to Secretary of State
Shultz our support for his ef-
forts."
Levin said that Shultz has
taken great political risks in
these peace efforts, and that
the senators were offering
encouragement.
Levin said he knew the let-
ter would be controversial,
but added that it also has
received tremendous support.
He said American Jews
should speak out to advance
the peace process, especially
at a time when so many
Israelis are doing so.
In response to the Levin let-
ter, Sen. Chic Hecht, R-Nev.,
and eight other Republican
senators this week sent an op-
posing letter to Shultz. The
senators asked the secretary
of state not to pressure
Shamir during the prime
minister's visit.
The Hecht letter warns that
"in light of the volatile situa-
tion in Israel at this point in
time, such (administration) of-
ficials must be most careful
not to say anything which
creates a risk of promoting
additional violence or discord.
"Regardless of how any of
us as individuals feel about
the concept of 'trading land
for peace, we believe that it is
the sovereign right of the
State of Israel and its leaders
alone to determine whether
and when Israel shall choose
to relinquish its land in ex-
change for agreements with
neighboring countries."
The letter adds that "the
people of Israel, better than
anyone else, understand their
own security imperatives."
It was also signed by Sens.
Jesse Helms of North
Carolina, Steve Symms of
Idaho, David Karnes of
Nebraska, William Arm-
strong of Colorado,
Christopher Bond of
Missouri, Gordon Humphrey
of New Hampshire, Phil
Gramm of Texas and Larry
Pressler of South Dakota.
Shultz received the Hecht
letter on the eve of Shamir's
visit, which began on Monday
with the Prime Minister's ap-
pearance before the Sixth Na-
tional Young Leadership Con-
ference of the United Jewish
Appeal.
As Shamir addressed the
crowd, about 100 members of
the UJA Prime Minister's
Council — including six pro-
minent Detroiters — met in
Washington with Israeli
statesman Abba Eban.
The Council and Detroiters

had breakfast on Tuesday
with White House officials in
Carl Levin: Moving forward.
the Old Executive Office
Building. President Reagan
addressed the crowd of major
UJA donors, re-affirming his
support for the Shultz peace
plan and at the same time
putting in a pitch for the
Young Leadership conference.
Security was especially
tight before Shamir's arrival
at the conference. Guests
walked through a metal
detector next to the hall
where Shamir was speaking.
Dogs, trained to sniff out
bombs, sat outside the door.
Shamir was greeted by
thunderous applause from
more than 3,000 guests, who
were singing rounds of
"Shalom Aleichem." This was
a pleasant surprise to at least
one member of the Young
Leadership National Cabinet,
who confided that cabinet
members had feared the
Prime Minister would be
booed by the crowd.
In his speech, Shamir
recalled the days when the
Old City of Jerusalem was oc-
cupied by Jordan. "We shall
never allow this to happen
again," he said. "This city
will stay undivided, it will
stay open, it will stay under
Israel's sovreig-nty. And it will
continue to stay the capital of
Israel forever?'
He also encouraged U.S.
Jewry not to cower in the face
of recent criticism of Israel,
saying, "It may be a big
mistake for our enemies to
underestimate our strength,
but it is even more difficult
for us to do so."
Contrary to his comments
to Levin, Shamir did not ap-
pear to have softened on his
position regarding the land-
for-peace proposal during his
speech.
Some people, he said, have
asserted that Middle East
peace is attainable if only
Israel declares its willingness
to give up the territories.
He recalled the 1948 and
1967 wars.
"I am astounded at the
