JUDITH TRUMBULL DESIGNS

647-5839

Bonn (JTA) — An official of
the Central Council of Jews
in West Germany resigned
under fire from its leader for
insisting that Jews should not
have demanded the resigna-
tion of former Bundestag
president Philipp Jenninger.
Michael Fuerst stepped
down as a vice chairman of
the council after its chair-
man, Heinz Galinski, de-
nounced him on national
television.
At issue was the speech
Jenninger delivered at a
special session of the
Bundestag Nov. 10, com-
memorating the 50th an-
niversary of Kristallnacht,
the first publically organized
pogrom in the Third Reich.
It was widely interpreted as
a justification rather than
condemnation of Nazi
outrages and precipitated
walkouts by more than 50
parliamentarians.
The international furor was
such that Jenninger, a rising
politician in Chancellor
Helmut Kohl's governing
Christian Democratic Union,
resigned the following day.
Jenninger, said to be friend-
ly toward Jews and suppor-
tive of Israel, insisted that his
speech was intended to depict
the state of mind in Germany
in 1938 that allowed
atrocities such as
Kristallnacht.

EC Reacts
To PNC State

Brussels (JTA) — The
Palestinians received a pat on
the head Monday from the
European Community, but
got no recognition of the in-
dependent state proclaimed
Nov. 15 by Yassir Arafat at
the meeting of the Palestine
National Council in Algiers.
The anxiously awaited com-
munique of the 12 European
foreign ministers who conven-
ed here Monday, praised "the
Palestinian acceptance of
U.N. Security Council Resolu-
tions 242 and 338 as a basis
for an international peace
conference."
That, according to the com-
munique, implies that the
Palestinians accept the right
of "all states in the region, in-
cluding Israel," to exist
within secure borders.
The statement also reaf-
firmed the right of the
Palestinian people to self-
determination "with all that
this implies" without
elaborating.
Observers here characteriz-
ed the communique as
"timid" and "cautious."
