Ja- cob Javits said yesterday the approaching confirmation of Ger- ald Ford as vice president mov- ed to the "front" consideration for President Nixon's resignation. With Ford's expected confirm- ation by the House Thursday, the New York Republican said, every Republican must also take into consideration the "suffering" of the party under the charges level- ed against Nixon on Watergate. WHEN FORD'S confirmed he said, the "consideration of re- signation or any call for resig- nation will properly come to the front and in such a context I and others will have to give every thoughtful consideration to that possibility." "It is clear that the Repub- lican Party, without being direct- ly implicated in Watergate, is nonetheless suffering because of these charges and this must give every Republican added concern as it relates toathe issue of re- signation," he added. The fact that Ford is 'at home' with the domestic and in- ternational policies espoused by President Nixon contributes to the propriety and practicality of such consideration as Ford's pos- sible succession to the presidency would not negate the voters' mandate of 1972." JAVITS SAID that inquiries in his own state show that "charges against the President are reflect- ing on the party." He also said the House Judi- ciary Committee "should report yes or no on a bill of impeach- ment within 60 to 90 days and the House . . . should then vote by roll call on the impeachment resolution up or down." Asked how such a bill might fit into constitutional language for impeachment on grounds of high crimes and misdemeanors, Javits said any House bill of impeachment "is what they make it." ASKED ABOUT Nixn's effort to inform members of Congress on his side of the Watergate charges, Javits said, "It's been a good try."

FIGHTING CONTINUES: batte for Kien Due Arab countries use energy crisis in identifying friends, BEIRUT, (A) - An old Arab saying goes: "The friend of my enemy is my enemy and the ene- my of my enemy is my friend." Many nations have suddenly learned the meaning of it - through the energy crisis. The Arabs have already iden- tified their enemies, beside Is- rael. TheUnited States, and the Netherlands, Portugal, Rhodesia, and South Africa are under a to- tal oil embargo. THE UNITED STATES lost its oil because it sent arms to Is- rael and appropriated $2.2 billion for aid to the Jewish state dur- ing the October war. The Dutch lost their oil be- cause their foreign minister made pro-Israelitstatements, their defense minister was pho- tographed at a pro-Israeli rally. The oil boycott was extended to South Africa, Rhodesia and Portugal on the grounds that their white regimes are to black Africa what Israel is to the Arabs. So far this year about 20 black African states have brok- en relations with Israel to sup- port the Arab cause, and in re- turn they asked the Arabs to strike a blow for their cause. THE ARABS are still trying to decide who their friends are. To spur the selection process, they have cut oil production 25 per cent with the promise of fu- ture 5 per cent monthly cut- backs until Israel withdraws from occupied Arab territory and the Middle East conflict is settled. Saudi Arabia's oil minister, Ahmed Zaki Yamani, has made it clear that "countries friendly to us will get the same amount of oil as before, while the neu- trals will get less." Thus, the 25 per cent cutback through November saw favored nations like the black African states get first whack at the re- maining 75 per cent, while neu- trals had to share what was left. JAPAN AND EUROPE, the Arabs' biggest oil customers, were hardest hit. European Common Market countries, excluding the Neth- erlands, won a reprieve from the S per cent December cutback af- ter they issued a joint statement calling for Israeli withdrawal from occupied Arab land and re- cognition of the "legitimate rights of the Palestinian people." Japan, Singapore and the Philippines followed suit and were likewise rewarded by the Arabs. BUT THERE is still next year. Yamani, now in the United States, has said that Saudi Ara- bia will extend the exemption to Britain, France and Spain through January. Other coun- tries, especially Japan, will have to do more to prove their friend- ship, tightening the economic blockade around Israel. Saudi Arabia has taken the lead in Arab oil policy. But so far there is only partial agree- ment among oil producing states on how to use their cutbacks- who is friendly? What ratio of oil should be allotted for what degrees of friendship? KUWAIT FEELS that only Spain is friendly enough to get an uninterrupted flow of oil and disagrees with Saudi Arabia about Britain and France. Abu Dhabi agrees on Britain and France but favors Japan over Spain. Since Abu Dhabi produces far less oil than Saudi Arabia, Ja- pan has been short-changed up to now. Other countries like West Germany and Italy and Scandinavia aren't even on any- body's list yet. " nemies The Arab summit conference in Algiers voted to appoint a committee of oil ministers charg- ed with drawing up a unified list of friends and enemies. But even this will not insure total unanimity among Arab oil pro- ducing countries. LEFTIST IRAQ, which also boycotted the summit, is not ex- porting oil to the Arab enemies. But it has refused to curtail pro- duction and penalize the neu- trals. The Baghdad government needs its oil revenues and ad- vocates nationalization of foreign oil companies as a more effec- tive weapon against Israel's sup- porters. Iraqi wells are pumping away and Iraqi crude is selling at re- cord prices. SAIGON (AP) - South Vietna- mese troops backed by bombers launched a counteroffensive yes- terday to retake a district capi- tal and ease North Vietnamese pressure on a provincial capital, field reports said. The action to retake Kien Duc, a district town 12 miles west of Gia Nghia, capital of Quang Duc Province, apparently had the ap- proval of President Nguyen Van Thieu under standing Saigon poli- cy to retake all territory lost to the Communist side since the January cease-fire. IN WASHINGTON, Pentagon spokesman Jerry Friedheim said despite the increased pace of the fighting, U. S. officials do not anticipate the start of a na- tionwide offensive. It widened the battle of more than a month near the Cambo- dian border for control of stra- tegic supply routes leading south- ward to Saigon, about 100 miles away. Some South Vietnamese sources see the central highlands fighting as a prelude to a gen- eral North Vietnamese offensive next year. A MESSAGE said intensified North Vietnamese and Viet Cong attacks across South Vietnam and Viet Cong attacks across South Vietnam and the influx of 100,000 fresh troops since the cease-fire "is a confirmation of the Communists' intention to launch a new offensive in South Vietnam." Kien Duc, about 90 miles north- east of Saigon, was the fourth government position to fall since Nov. 1. All four positions lie along Highway 14. The North Vietna- mese need a 25-mile section of the road from Dak Song south- ward to Kien Duc to complete a 400-mile all-weather road net- work stretching from the demili- tarized zone. COMPLETION of the network would facilitate the flow of war materiels and troops.

Industry Labor Leisure Health Science Space Earth Disasters Education Transportation World Nations Communications e k E iJ i I Arabs often claim that they are not anti-semites because they are semites. That is irrelevant because anti-semitism histori- cally and unversally means hatred of Jews and nothing else. A n t i s e m i ti c literature abounds in the Arab world to- day and its main function ap- pears to be the cultivation and maintenance of popular hatred toward Israel. A substantial portion of this antisemitic campaign s t e m s from continued Arab-Nazi col- laboration since WW 11. The leaders of the Palestinian Arabs (Hai Amin el Husseini, Fawsi el Hawkii, Wase.f Kamal) were in Berlin since 1941. They helped to organize Muslim SS- units in the Balkan which help- ed to liquidate Jews and par- tisans. Furthermore, hundreds of lead- ing Nazis have been and are working in Egypt and Syria in prominent positions. Some ex- amples: SS-General Oskar Dir- lewanger, murderer of tens of thousands of J e w s in the Ukraine, was the commander of Nasser's bodyguard (now called Hai Amin). Dr. Heinrich Willerman, the Nazi doctor who cruelly experi- mented on human bodies in the Dachau concentration camp, is the commander of the Samarra camp in Egypt. And the head of the Gestapo in Poland, Leo- pold Gleim, is now (under the nam of Ali el Nacher) the head of the political police in Egypt. Finally, the "Institute for Re- search on Zionism" in Cairo is a profuse source of onti-semitic propaganda; its founder and di- rector was Goebbels' assistant Dr. J. Von Leers (died in 1965). A r a b governments cooperate throughout the world with neo- Nazi organizotions I i k e the British National Socialist move- nent, Tacuara (Argentina) and newspapers like the "Deut- sche Soldaten Se.itung" (Ger- many). Many of these organi- zations are subsidized by Egypt. The Palestinian terrorist groups also have Nazi links. E-Fatah uses Nazi recruiters (Karl Van der Put in Belgium and Johann Schuller. an ex-Nazi living in Rome). The commanded of a PFLP comp in Basra is a for- m-r SS-officer (E. Alten) . Wkin nurA of Iona :.-is .n Durng 1968 and 1968, an in- ternational commission of edu- cators, established under the authority of the director-gen- eral of UNESCO to examine textbooks used by Arab refu- gee children in schools financed by UN Relief and Works Agency, recommended that 65 of the 127 books examined be "modified" and that, 14 be withdrawn f r o m use entirely. The objectionable books were so judged because they distort- ed history, openly incited vio- lence, or employed "the de- plorable language of anti-sem- itism." The commission's initial report noted t h a t "special mention should be made of students' ex- ercises which are often inspired by a preoccupation with indoc- trination against J e w s rather than by s t r i c t I y educational aims." When the director-general of UNESCO approached the Arab governments to c or r e c t the books, he got the following an- swer from the Syrian minister of education Sule.iman - Al - Khash (A' Thaura 3.5.68) : "The hatred which we indoc- trinate into the minds of our children is sacred." The implications of such Arab- Nazi cooperation are that Israel must take Arab declarations of intended extermination very se- riously. Such genocidal threats are not mere rhetorical exer- cises, but the expression of a Hilterian-type racism, w h i c h still strongly thrives in Arab lands. The Jewish people lost six mililon people in World War It for failing to take Hitler se- rious'y: Israel cannot be blamed for taking the Arabs at their word. Quite apart from Arab anti- semitism, it is, worthwhile ex- amining other forms of Arab racism which ordinarily do not receive sufficient public atten- tion. The Arabs as a people have one of the worst historical records on racism known to hu- manity, h a v i n g engaged in widespread persecution of non- Arab minorities as well as in the wholesale trading of black Africans to slavery. (The reader is encouraaed to look up the section on "Slav- erv" in the Encyclopedia Brit- tonica w h i c h describes how Ar nh msave-traers ,as reently and Sudan--all the slaves are black Africans. It should also be mentioned that Egyptian pi- lots helped in the bombing of Biafra, thereby aiding in the massacre of well over a million lbos. In Sudan, a war is raged against the blacks of the three southern provinces of Sudan. Until 1970, the government ruled by northern Arabs killed 500,000 blacks, expelled or k i I I e d all missionaries (the blacks are Christian or pagan as opposed to the Muslim Arabs), murdered the black leader William Dang, and took away all land from the blacks in areas occupied by the Arab northerners. Hundreds of thou- sands of blacks from Sudan fled to northern Uganda. Even Arnold Toynbee attacked Arab colonialism in the Sudan (Play- boy, April 1967). In Egypt, the five million Copts, who are the bona fide descen- dants of the ancient Egyptians, are discriminated against in employment. In Syria, there is fierce perse- cution of the Kurds who, as a M u s I i m non-Arab minority, have no right to vote because they do not speak Arabic. They have no right to be Syrian cit- izens for the same reason. It is forbidden for Kurds to own land or to be employed in the public service or elsewhere. They are not allowed to learn in high schools (neither Arab nor Kurdish high schools) or to be taught in the Kurdish language. Tens of thousands of them are deported and dispersed in order to break their majority position in Djazireh. In Iraq, a similar war against the two million Kurds was waged between 1943 up to the present time. Since 1958, at least seven agreements between the Kurds and the government were signed. All were broken by Bagdad. In the meantime, 40,OOQ Kurds w e r e expelled from the suburbs of Kirkuk, 240 villages w e r e destroyed, poisonous gas was used, and hundreds of thousands w e r e killed. The above facts are especially interesting in the light of Arab propaganda tactics to depict Is- rael as colonialist and white in order to gain the support of Africans and black Americans.
