Free Prostate Cancer Screening
Prostate cancer can be successfully treated
when detected in the early stages.
The facts about prostate cancer:
• It is the second most common form of cancer death
among American men.
• An estimated 200,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate
cancer in 1994.
• Approximately 38,000 men will die from prostate cancer this year.

ing free prostate cancer screening exams. If you're 40 years of age

Golan Study
Washington (JTA) — Members
of Congress will have a study de-
tailing scenarios of possible U.S.
troop deployment on the Golan
Heights in their hands by Oct. 15.
An amendment to the $243 bil-
lion Defense Appropriations bill,
approved by the Senate last
week, requires the State De-
partment to release a confiden-
tial study conducted by the Rand
Corporation.
The study examines the roles
U.S. troops could play in Middle
East peace settlements.
The Senate bill, approved Aug.
11 with a vote of 86-14, also in-
cludes several provisions for fund-
ing joint U.S.-Israel military
projects.
Jewish groups opposed to the
current peace process, who have
banded together in a loose coali-
tion with Christian pro-Israel or-
ganizations to oppose any U.S.
peacekeepers on the Golan,
hailed the amendment as a "ma-
jor achievement."
Calling themselves the Coali-
tion for a Secure U.S.-Israel
Friendship, the 20 groups joined
forces in June to oppose any set-
tlement with Syria that includes
U.S. peacekeepers.
"Our ultimate goal is to pre-
vent such a deployment which is
useless and would serve only as
a fig leaf for Prime Minister Ra-
bin," Herbert Zweibon, chairman
of Americans for a Safe Israel, a
member of the coalition said.
The issue of U.S. troops being
sent to enforce a peace agreement
between Israel and Syria came
to the fore two months ago when
the Senate overwhelmingly de-
feated a measure that would
have enacted burdensome re-
porting requirements before the
president could station troops on
the Golan.
Many pro-Israel members of
Congress, as well as the Ameri-
can Israel Public Affairs Com-
mittee, fought against the
measure, saying it was prema-
ture and could damage sensitive
negotiations between Israel and
Syria.
Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin
joined the fray at the time, ac-
cusing the right-wing groups of
trying to derail the peace process.
Most analysts believe that any
future peace deal between Israel
and Syria will require some in-
ternational observers or forces,
including from the United States.
The Coalition for a Secure
U.S.-Israel Friendship, including
the Christians' Israel Public Af-
fairs Campaign, the Center for
Security Policy, World Commit-
tee for Israel, Americans for A
Safe Israel and the Jewish War
Veterans of America, in June pur-
chased advertisements in the
New York Times and the New Re-
public, expressing their opposi-
