NEW YORK. (JTA) — Two " Soviet Jewry organizations have asked entertainer Johnny Carson to refuse publicly the in¬ vitation to liim by bitourist- Aeroflot to televise his "Tonight Show." from Moscow for two weeks. The California Students for Soviet Jews, based in Los Angeles, said the invitation should be rejected "on the grounds that anti-Semitism is still rampant in the Soviet Union and the Jews wishing to go to Israel are not per¬ mitted to do so." C^arson should accept only if the Soviet Government "can promise him th^t all those Jews now incarcerated in prison and other Jews wanting to go to Israel would be^permitted to do so," said CSSJ chairman Zev Yaroslavsky. Referring to Carson's questioning of whether a Russian audience would understand his jokes, Yaroslavsky declared: "liiis is no joking matter. Soviet treatment of Jews is a deadly serious matter of the struggle of a people to survive. If Carson goes to Moscow to tell jokes he will not be remembered favorably aniong those who struggled for fireedom when Soviet Jewry had their backs to the WaU."
Yaroslavsky recalled that "knowing Carson's concern for othei'people's rights," he wrote the NBC-TV star a year ago asking that he study the situation of Soviet Jews. "We never received a reply pne way or another from Carson or his staff," the' CSSJ leader reported. Yaroslavsky said "it would be tremendous if Carson would go to Moscow and interview leading activists for Soviet .lewry, or even hold a debate between government representatives and active Soviet Jews." But he      concluded:     ,"Un-

TEL AVIV (WNS) — U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Joseph-J. Sisco told a press conference prior to em¬ barking for his retimi to the U.S. that he had expected "no decisive breakthrough" ui his talks with IsraeU of¬ ficials on an interim agreement to reopen the Suez Canal and "none was achieved."

Sisco said, were "exploratory in nature" and added, "We know more clearly the limits, the possibUitieS, the perils and the opportunity which exists ui the present situation in the area."
