Goldberg, chairman of the Ad Hoc Com¬ mittee on the Human Rights and Genocide Treaties, has applauded the Senate Foreign Relations Com¬ mittee's unanimous action in approving the 23-year-old Genocide convention, in force since 1953 and ratified by 75 UN member states. He expressed confidence the Senate leadership would bring the Convention before the Senate for a vote early in this session. He noted that a bi-partisan letter, initiated by Senators Frank Church, William Prpxmire, Jacob Javitz and Hugh Scott, had been signed by 53 Senators. This, he said, demonstrated strong bi-partisan support for con¬ sideration and approval of the measure. WASHINGTON (WNS)-The Washingtoni Committee for Soviet Jewry has written Dr. Armand Hammer, board chairman and chief executive officer of the Occidental Petroleum Company, to express his con¬ cern to Soviet officials about the approximately 40 Soviet Jews imprisoned for wishing to emigrate when . he negotiates with Soviet authorities. Hammer was instalments] in arranging the loans of 41 post- inimpressionist paintings owned by the Soviet government to.be shown here at the National Gallery and also in New York. Warn Of Anti-Semitism it Russian Trade Bill Blocked Israel Urges Governments Not To Surrender To Terrorist Extortion WASHINGTON (WNS)- G.A. Arbatov, director of the Institute for U.S. studies at the Academy of Sciences in Moscow, told American tf-jsiness "leaders here that proposed Congressional legislation aimed at removing Soviet restrictions on emigrations "would revive anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union" because it would give "Soviet Jews a special status and treat¬ ment" Speaking at the two- day U.S. Soviet trade con¬ ference here sponsored by 1 the National Association of Manufacturers with U.S. and SovietrGovernmentbacking, Arbatov warned that if the- question * ; of w Soviet emigration 1 becomes in¬ surmountable it "would spur anti-Semitism in the United States itself" because many would use it "as a. pretext against the SALT talks and detente." ' He warned that if "nor¬ malization" of trade . relations between the two countries is blocked it would (CONTINUED ON PAGE 16) JERUSALEM, (JTA)<- The Israel government urged other governments March 4 "not to surrender to extortion by terrorist organizations" if terrorist outrages are to be curbed. A sharply worded statement to that effect was issued by the Cabinet this evening, several hours after the an¬ nouncement that eight Black September terrorists who murdered two American diplomats and one Belgian envoy in Khartoum Friday had surrendered to Sudanese authorities, The Cabinet statement broke the official silence that Israel had maintained since Thursday when the heavily armed Black Septembrists shot their way into the Saudi Arabian Embassy in Khartoum and seized three Western diplomats and two Arab envoys who were at¬ tending a reception there. I The only Israeli statement i until today was a brief (message of condolence, 'which Foreign Minister Abba Eban* sent to' IKS? i Secretary of State William ' P. Rogers over the deaths of i the two Americans, Am¬ bassador Cleo A. Noel, Jr. and U.S. Embassy Counselor George C. Moore. The third victim, Belgian Charge d'Affaires Guy Eid, was reported earlier to have been spared when the two Americans were shot. Today's Cabinet statement contained additional con¬ dolences to the American and Belgian governments. It stated that the Khartoum episode provided "additional evidence of the murderous nature of the terrorist and sabotage organizations'' and ; noted: "These organizations not only show total disregard of all human standards in their decisions. and operations but also aim to torpedo every chance of progress toward peace between the Arab states and Israel." The Israeli statement warned: "The terrorists threaten the peace of each and every country, un¬ dermining the sovereign interests even of Arab states. Their activities could be checked were the necessary security and legal measures to be instituted by the countries of the world, including the Arab states- each country for itself, in cooperation with the world community." The statement called "on all governments of the world not to surrender to extortion by the terrorist organizations and to do everything possible to prevent their activities." Apart from the Cabinet statement, Israeli circles here laid a large measure of the blame for the latest terrorist outrages on what they called the acquiescence of. some Western European governments to terrorist blackmail. "There is the feeling that. the Western European governments have, by their very acts of acquiescence to terrorist blackmail, in¬ creased the chances of terrorist activities," the circles said.

Mr. SamuelM: Miller, National Chairman of the United Jewish Appeal, and the evening's speaker, highlighted the) importance for significantly increased giving in 1973 in order to maintain and support the flow and resettlement of Jews from the Soviet Union to Israel. "A miracle in our time is now taking place," he stated, "which must be recognized and the op¬ portunity grasped to rescue these people before the iron curtain may again come vtown." Michael Radimoslosky, immigrant to Israel from Russia last year, spoke about his experiences and told of the hardships con¬ fronting all Jews: in the Soviet Union in retaining their identity, in order to live a Jewish life. "The only course for such Jews is that of going to Israel, but in making such a choice one undergoes a horrible ex¬ perience of alienation among the Soviet Jews, the loss of employment, the loss of educational opportunity and the loss of all those normal activities which we, in a democartic state, take for granted," he said. A direct telephone call to the Soviet Union to one of the Russians awaiting a visa, was made at the Dinner by Mark Mellman, a young dynamic leader of Columbus Jewish Youth activity in¬ volved in seeking the release of Soviet Jews.
