port from liberal Jewish ac-
tivists.
In Oregon, the pro-Israel
community did not fare so
well. Sen. Mark Hatfield,
who has been a major prob-
lem for Israel's defenders in
Washington, fended off a
furious challenge from polit-
i c a newcomer Harry
Lonst1ale.
Mr. Lonsdale, who has
never 1.eld public office, liv-
ed in Israel for six months in
the early '70s, and generated
considerable enthusiasm in
the pro-Israel community.
He also attracted support
from liberal Jc..vvish activists
who opposed Mr. Hatfield's
anti-abortion stand.
But in the end, Mr. Hat-
field's ability to deliver for
Oregon residents and his
vigorous, last-minute cam-
paign proved unbeatable.
In Kentucky, Sen. Mitch
McConnell won a second
term by a 53-47 percent
margin after a tough race
against Harvey Sloane. Mr.
McConnell has won high
marks from pro-Israel ac-
tivists; the pro-Israel PACs
turned out in force to sup-
port his uphill battle for re-
election, and on Tuesday, he
was able to overcome the
fact that registered
Democrats outnumber
Republicans by almost 5 to 2
in Kentucky.
Another pro-Israel incum-
bent faced only minimal op-
position. Sen. Joseph R.
Biden Jr. (D-Del.) who has
been in the Senate since
1972, easily outdistanced his
GOP opponent, Jane Brady.
In one of the most dra-
matic races in recent
memory, Sen. Jesse Helms
(R-N.C.), long the nemesis of
Jewish multi- issue groups,
beat Harvey Gantt, a black
Democrat who waged an
effective, energetic cam-
paign.
The race proved to be a
controversial one within the
Jewish community. For
years, Mr. Helms was a
major roadblock in the
Senate for pro-Israel ac-
tivists.
After a trip to Israel and
some insistent lobbying by
conservative pro-Israel ac-
tivists, Mr. Helms became
an outspoken defender of the
strategic relationship bet-
we en Washington and
Jerusalem, and one of the
leading critics of the
Palestine Liberation Organ-
ization.
But Mr. Helms' conversion
was not complete; despite his
NOW IS THE TIME FOR JEWS
EVERYWHERE TO STAND UP WITH THE
PEOPLE OF ISRAEL.
