BRUSSELS (WNS) — The nine Common Market
countries have adopted a draft resolution calling on
Israel to end its occupation of all territories it has
held since 1967. The resolution prepared by Foreign
Ministers Sir Alec Douglas-Home of Britain and
Michel Jobert of France will be reconsidered for final
approval at a meeting Dec. 15 in Copenhagen. The
action came in the face of a threat of a cutoff of oil by
the Arab states. Holland already has been completely
deprived of oil. However, newspapers in, Britain and
Germany accused the nine countries of giving in to
Arab blackmail.
New York (WNS) — Abraham D. Beame won 57
percent of the vote to become the first Jew to be elected
as mayor of New Y$rk City. The 67-year-old city
controller will be New York's 104th mayor: Beame, as
expected, received his largest pluralities in the Jewish
middle'class districts of Brooklyn, the Bronx and
Queens, but he also gathered nearly 70 percent of the
vote in the city's Black and Hispanic neighborhoods.
Beame, who became mayor after 23 years in public
office, won born in London March 20, 1906 and was
' taken to New York by his family as a three-month-old
infant. His family name of Birnbaum was legally
changed when Beame was six years old. Beame is
active in Jewish affairs and is a member of an Or¬
thodox synagogue in Brooklyn. He refused to cam¬
paign on Saturdays! ',' ' ,     ' '   v ' '

'them'with food. Mondale made his suggestion in
Detroit at the 60th anniversary dinner of the Michigan
Ahti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith. "I hope the
Secretary of State will emphasize in talks with the
< "Arab countries that the United States cannot be ex¬
pected to produce agricultural products to feed their
people if they withhold the petroleum needed to run our
tractors," Mondale declared. Earlier Foreign
Agriculture, a publication of the Agriculture-Depart¬
ment, reported that the United States is the prime
source of grain and other farm products for the Middle
East. ' '

Kissinger's Five Point Formula For Peace
Reported Accepted By Israel And Egypt
JERUSALEM (WNS) -
Chances of maintaining the
cease-fire between Israel
arid Egypt and starting
negotiations for a peace
settlement seemed to have
improved after it was
reported that both Israel and
Egypt have accepted a
formula proposed by U.S.
Secretary of State Henry A.
Kissinger. The formula,
which has been accepted in
principle by Israel, provides
according to sources: a
permanent supply corridor
through Israeli lines for the
encircled Egyptian Third
Army under United Nations
control; an immediate ex¬
change of wounded prisoners
of war to be followed by a
general exchange of POWs;
lifting of the Egyptian
blockade of the straits of Bab
el Mqndeb; a realignment of
the cease-fire lines; and
peace negotiations to follow
if the first four conditions
are to be honored. The
formula was submitted to
Premier Golda Meir by
Joseph J. Sisco, Assistant
Secretary of State for Near
Eastern and South Eastern
Affairs. Sisco and Harold
Saunders, director of Middle
Eastern Affairs on the
National Security Council,
arrived suddenly in Israel
from Cairo where they had
attended Kissinger's
meeting with Egyptian
President Anwar Sadat at
which Sadat had apparently
accepted Kissinger's
proposals. Joining Mrs. Meir
in   meeting   Sisco   were

Bikel Says Latest Middle East Peace
Is Result Of Egypt's Military Success
by BILL COHEN
Chronicle Special Reporter
Egypt's mild success on
the battlefield may be one of
the reasons that country
signed its recent "peace"
agreement with Israel,
according to Theodore Bikel.
Bikel, in Columbus'earlier
this week for a Torah
Academy fundraiser and a
breakfast at Hillel, told The
"had achieved a modicum of
dignity" that allowed them
"to come to-a peace table
with an equanimity and
without all those chips on
their shoulders."

military history, acquitted   Arab psychological makeup
itself rather well and found
its manhood, if you want to
call it that. Egypt can come
to a peace table without any
loss of face and indeed with a
legitimate claim to its own
people that they were not
-defeated."
Bikel said the Egyptians
couldn't countenance it.
Bikel went on to describe
Zionism as a "national
liberation movement."
"This includes an
awareness of oneself as
belonging to a people;
regardless   of   where   one

In a letter to his
congregation, Rabbi David
Stavsky of the Beth Jacob
Synagogue urged the entire
Jewish community to put
their cars in the garage for
the Sabbath Day. The letter
read:
"If the non-Jewish people
in the Netherlands can
deprive themselves of the
use of their cars on a Sunday
then the American Jewish
community in keeping with
.the spirit of The Holy Sab¬
bath can surely once and for
all   learn   to   walk   to
synagogue and to temple on
The Sabbath Day. The
conservation of gasoline and
oil during the present Middle
East crisis brought about by
the Arab blackmail of all
freedom loving countries, is
a must for ev,ery Jew", said
the rabbi. "Walking to shule
or temple is a matter of
habit. I have found it is
usually the'best hours that I
spend with my children and
members of my family, as
we usually discuss so many
different topics and subjects.

request, has for the second
time postponed House
consideration of the Trade
Reform Act of 1973 because

Jewish Telegraphic Agency
was informed, Albert in¬
dicated he would .postpone
calling up the bill for detente
for one week, from the
legislative period beginning
Nov. 12 to the period starting
Nov. 19. Later, the White
House for the first time

negotiations on the Middle
East crisis. The trade bill

scheduled for final action

poned when Nixon asked
