This is exactly the outcome the Bush adthinistration ap- pears to want, and it is why it filed a brief urging the court to take up an appeal by the Providence (RI.) School Committee of two lower fed- eral court rulings. These rulings said that a prayer and invocation by a rabbi at the Nathan Bishop Middle School in Providence violated the so-called estab- lishment clause of the First Amendment because by mentioning God it was an of- ficial endorsement of re- ligion. The high court agreed March 18 to hear the case, Lee vs. Weisman, next fall. Legal experts at Jewish organizations fear the deci- sion may signal the court's willingness to erase many of the boundaries that now ex- ist between church and state. If the court were to go along with the administra- tion's thinking, it could mean there would be "nothing left of the estab- lishment clause," said Marc Stern, legal director for the American Jewish Congress. Samuel Rabinove, legal di- rector for the American Jew- ish Committee, and Steven Freeman, his counterpart at the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, also express- ed fear of an erosion of the establishment clause. None of the legal experts believe the court would restore organized prayer to the public schools. But, Mr. Stern warned, it could mean that religious symbols could be allowed on public property seasonally or even permanently, and it could open the door to a re- examination of prohibitions on federal aid to parochial schools. The case centers around the 1971 Lemon vs. Kurt- zman decision, which for 20 years has been the standard for deciding whether a policy or practice violated the es- tablishment clause. Lemon vs. Kurtzman sets a three- - American Rad Crowe part test requiring proof that a policy or practice have "a secular purpose," that "its principal or primary effect must be one that neither ad- vances nor inhibits religion" and that it does not foster an "excessive entanglement with religion." In the Providence case, the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Ap- peals in Boston found that the graduation prayer failed to meet the second part of the test, because it was an "advancement" of religion. The suit against the school board was filed by Daniel Weisman, a professor of so- cial work at Rhode Island College, whose daughter, Deborah, was one of the graduates. While his family is Jewish, Mr. Weisman maintained that non-Jewish students could have been offended by the prayer. Three years earlier when his older daughter, Merith, graduated, Mr. Weisman complained to the super- intendent because an in- vocation speaker thanked Jesus for the students' ac- complishments. The main focus in the Providence case will be on the newest justice, David Souter, who replaced Justice William Brennan, the court's most ardent defender of the First Amendment. AJCongress, which has participated in the case since its beginning, will file a brief in support of Mr. Weisman. ADL filed a brief in support of Mr. Weisman in the U.S. Court of Appeals. Both ADL and AJCom- mittee are expected to file briefs in the Supreme Court case, although no decision has been made yet. U.S. Speeds Up Shipments To Israel Tel Aviv (JTA) — The United States has speeded up delivery of vital weapons to Israel, including Apache attack helicopters, which have arrived two years ahead of the original Israel Defense Force target dates. David Ivri, director gen- eral of the Israeli Defense Ministry, disclosed the ac- celerated schedule in an interview published here last month in the National Religious Party newspaper Hatzofeh. Mr. Ivri, who accompanied Defense Minister Moshe Arens during his Feb. 11 meeting in Washington with Defense Secretary Dick Cheney, also cited the speedy delivery of U.S. Patriot anti-missile systems after the first Iraqi missile attack on Israel as an exam- ple of the high-level strate- gic cooperation between the two countries. "I have no doubt that the implementation of certain logistical steps, such as the delivery of Patriots, at the pace which has occurred un- til now, is the result of the infrastructure which was es- tablished by strategic coop- eration," Mr. Ivri said. Ten attack helicopters and 12 early-model F-15 aircraft were part of the $700 million in special military assis- tance the Bush administra- tion promised Israel after Iraq invaded Kuwait last August. "But delivery was delayed when the Gulf war started" on Jan. 17, military analyst Ze'ev Schiff wrote in the Feb. 21 edition of the Jerusalem Report, an Eng- lish-language weekly. "Israel was informed that not all the promised equip- ment might be available: Some was needed for the war, and the whole list would have to be reassessed later on," Mr. Schiff wrote. But "as things developed, instead of the one Patriot that the United States had promised, six were sent to Israel," Mr. Schiff pointed out, adding that some might remain there after the war. Mr. Ivri told Hatzofeh that strategic cooperation with Washington has become "normal, mutual and reaches the highest levels." He said this cooperation "maintains ongoing work and creates important per- sonal relations." Speaking of Israel's policy of restraint in face of Iraqi Scud missile attacks, the Defense Ministry official said it is the government's duty to discuss and deter- mine when to respond. "This deliberation in- dicates the state's maturity and reflects on the existence of our military capability," he said.
