Arrow Support
Is Bolstered

S

unday's successful test fir-
ing of Israel's high-tech Ar-
row anti-tactical missile
came not a moment too
soon for supporters of the pro-
gram in Washington.
Pentagon official had warned
that American funding for the $1-
billion plus system could be in
jeopardy unless the program
started showing some impressive
results. And there has been an
ominous grumbling from the Pen-
tagon about the wisdom of fund-
ing an Israeli weapon that won't
provide protection against the
kinds of long-range missiles that
pose a threat to this country.
A test firing earlier this year
was aborted because of comput-
er problems, adding to the ten-
sion.

This week's test — in which an
Arrow successfully tracked an in-
tercepted a target missile — could
solidify both political and mili-
tary support for the embattled
project. The successful test firing
may also provide some insulation
against across-the-board defense
cuts that look increasingly likely
as Congress applies emergency
first-aid to the federal budget.
"Interest in ballistic missile de-
fense has receded," said one de-
fense analyst in Washington.
"And funding for all such projects
remains a big long-term question
mark. But the Arrow is a good
system that's necessary for Is-
rael's long-term defense needs —
and the technology developed by
the Israelis is potentially impor-
tant for this country."

For families with children in Sunday, afternoon or evening
classes, the Jewish Educational Scholarship Program
may be the answer.

This communal scholarship fund was established by the Jewish Feder-
ation of Metropolitan Detroit to encourage synagogue and temple mem-
bership, and to promote Jewish education.

Scholarships are based on financial need, with priority given to families
who are affiliated with a congregation or sponsoring organization.

Application forms are available at any of the participating schools, or
from the Agency for Jewish Education.

Application Deadline is July 1, 1994

The CIA Facility
And Hamas Funding

select group of Jewish
leaders will get a rare
glimpse of Washington's
most secret facility — the
CIA headquarters in suburban
Langley, Va.
The Jewish leaders will troop
to the sprawling complex in mid-
July for a full day's worth of brief-
ings from CIA officials, including
chief spook R. James Woolsey Jr.

Also on the agenda:
the issue of private
American funding for
Hamas.

Topics will include international
terrorism, regional security is-
sues and the proliferation of nu-
clear, chemical and biological
weapons.
The unusual session grew out
of a discussion between Mr.
Woolsey, Presidents Conference
chair Lester Pollack and Malcolm
Hoenlein, the group's executive
vice chair.
Also likely to be on the agen-
da: the issue of private American
funding for Hamas, the Islamic
extremist group in Gaza and the
West Bank that continues to pose
a major threat to the peace
process.
In recent weeks, the Presi-
> dents Conference has been work-
ing quietly to get various federal
agencies more involved in moni-
toring and limiting the millions

Security Council
Move Fails

United Nations (JTA) — A
Lebanese drive for a Security
Council statement condemning
Israel has failed because of Amer-
ican insistence that any such
measure be balanced.
Lebanon hoped the Security
Council would react to Israel's
kidnapping last month of Shi'ite
Muslim guerrilla leader Mustafa
Dirani and the separate air strike
June 2 on a training base .
But the United States, which
has veto power in the Security
Council, insisted that any state-
ment condemn as well the
Katyusha rockets fired on Israel .
