Washington (JTA) — An
Arab American, who is a sup-
porter of the Palestine Libera-
tion Organization, and a Los
Angeles city councilman, who
supported an appearance of
Black Muslim leader Louis
Farrakhan in 1985, are
among the persons who were
added to the expanded
Democratic National Com-
mittee at its post-convention
meeting in Atlanta July 22.
Ruth Ann Skaff, of
Houston, who has been active
in various local and national
Arab American organiza-
tions, was among 10 sup-
porters of the Rev. Jesse
Jackson, who were added to
the committee as at-large
members as the result of the
unity agreement between
Jackson and Massachusetts
Gov. Michael Dukakis, the
Democratic presidential
nominee. Eight Dukakis sup-
porters were also named at-
large members.
Councilman Robert Farrell,
while also a Jackson sup-
porter, automatically became
a member of the executive
committee because he holds
the position of president of
the Conference of Democratic
Municipal Officials.
Hyman Bookbinder, an ad-
visor to the Dukakis cam-
paign on Jewish and Mideast
issues, said while he is not
pleased with some of the new
members, what is more im-
portant is that Dukakis and
the overwhelming majority of
members of the committee
support Israel and are not
sympathetic to the PLO.

Knesset Votes
To Split Elections
Jerusalem (JTA) — The
Knesset voted Tuesday to
hold municipal elections and
Knesset elections on different
dates.
The measure, backed by the
Labor Party and most of the
smaller factions, sailed
through its second and third
readings to become law.
Likud adamantly opposed the
change, but outnumbered, it
boycotted the vote.
Mayoral and town council
elections are now scheduled
for Feb. 28, instead of Nov. 1,
when Israeli voters will elect
a new Knesset. Until now,
local and national elections
have been held concurrently.
Meanwhile, the Knesset
Foreign Affairs and Defense
Committee cast a - vote
Wednesday to require all
yeshivah students to do
military service.
