Congressional Sources Predict More Phonfoms
WASHINGT(JN (JTA) - President Nixon will sooner or later authorize the saje of additional Phantom jet fighter- bombers .and other arms to Israel despite diplomatic dif¬ ferences over peace proposals, congressional sources predicted this week. .
U.S. policy-makers are convinced that a continuing U.S. arms supply tojsrael would not tnly deter Arab agression but also inhibit Israel from a pre-emptive war. An American- Soviet nuclear confrontation in the Middle East may be avoided if Israeli power is kept at a carefully balajiced level,

Says
Eban
Gunboats Not To Be Armed
JERUSALEM, (WNS) - Foreign Minister Abba Eban has promised that Israel will not arm the five gunboats she obtained from Ft-ance in what Pacis viewed as a breech of the embargo on arms to direct participants in the Mideast conflict.
Mr. Eban's pledge was made on an interview broadcast over Radio ' Luxembourg during which he praised Admiral Mor- > dechai Limon'^ a "national hero" for his role in arranging the departure of the boats from Cherbourg. Admiral Limon was told to leave France where he had headed Israel's arms pur¬ chasing mission in Europe.
the Foreign Minister's ' statement that "we.' must ..honor our pledges" camels Gaul||st factions attacked the French Goyemment for "complicity" in allowing the speedy vessels to leave FVance.        ^'
(In Paris, it was an- .nounccd thai iwo officials suspended for approving the sale of the gunboats to a^ private company had been'
removed from their office, This action is expected to further anger FVench Army officers who are dissatisfied with Paris's support of the Arabs and what some generals view as an attempt to make military officers' "the ^capegoati for the mistakes   of   politicians.")
The Israeli Cabinet had declared before Mr. Eban's radio statement, that the gunboats were going to a .civilian oil-exploration company for commercial use and that Jerusalem had violated no international law in the transaction.
The Government statement said that Mr. Limon's expulsion was "unjustified" and that the basic cause of the entire affair was the arms embargo that "withholds equipment legally acquired and paid for by Israel in violation of normal international con¬ duct and with damaging effects on peace prospects in the Middle East."
Israel noted that while thc arms embargo was in effect against her,' massive ship¬ ments of FVench arms are going to Arab states and a major deal is being arranged between Paris and Libya, 'a country which has tleclared its readiness to lend armed forces to a renewed Arab Attack on Israel..'   \J' "

UJFC Womens Division Feature Two Affairs

major events will'be participating in setting the pace for the

according to high officials
Consideration of the arms list submitted by Israeli Premier (jolda Meir last is under active rev,iew without direct- linkage to current differences on other matters. But the financial aid she asked now appears less likely than the arms quest. Informed sources said 'that a new commitment will be made for sale of Phan¬ toms to be delivered after the 50 ordered last year are shipped.
Delivery of th^ 50 is scheduled for completion by the end.bf 1970. A new order would.', be delivered in carefully controlled monthly driblets to retain leverage on Israeli policies. But ship¬ ments may be expedited or slowed depending upon Israeli losses and the extent and quality of Soviet arms provided to the Arabs.
Financing to , 6over -mounting arms costs is problematic because of inflationary tendencies and budgetary problems. White House officials will decide upon the timing of any new
arms 'sales
with  a  view  to  domestic
political  considerations   as
.well   as   the   international situation.
The limited sale of ad¬ ditional arms to Israel was also indicated in a policy analysis published in the latest issue of the authoritative quarterly, "Foreign Affairs'." The publication cited "jcom- pelling reasons' for^-sug- plying weapons tb^Isr^l aim' outlined "why it would" be unwise to deny Israel further supplies in th,ehope that such restraint'would enhance the prospects Df a miiitllate^al political Settlement between the various parties to the'
¦ conflict." ^
Foreign Affairs argued in favor of helping Israel remain "the 'dominant local airpower in the Middle East."" If America denied essential arms, Israel yvould "redouble its attempt to build up its own arms in¬ dustry and would ,klmost certainly move further toward a nuplear option."
