WASHINGTON (WNS) - In an unusual and angry statement that implied criticism of Israel, President Ford declared that the United States would hot compete with leaks in diplomacy affecting a Middle East settlement. His statement read by State Department spokesman Robert Anderson referred to an article by the Jerusalem correspondent of the New York. Times which reported an Israeli offer for a second - stage agreement with the Egyptians accompanied by maps. According- to the Times, Israel has offered Egypt a land corridor to the Abu Rodeis oilfields and an Israeli withdrawal from the western part of the Gidi and Mitla passes in return for an Egyptian commitment not to use force for three or four years. Ford's statement declared that the U.S.. "will not get into the business pf competitive leaks' of con¬ fidential .. diplomatic- Zjsi-.. changes. The maps that Syria To Get $58 Million In U.S. Aid By Joseph Polakoff WASHINGTON (JTA) - Congress will allow the Ford Administration to make an additional economic loan of $58 million to Syria without opposition but with ample warning that . further financial assistance will be opposed with floor action unless the plight of Syrian Jews is alleviated. With the House going into a ten - day recess on June 26, those who chose to make a fight against the second loan to the Damascus government have found they had virtually run out in their legislative time to block the Administration's action. On the first loan of $25 million granted earlier this year, Congress made no move to prevent it in view of Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger's preparation at the time for his ill - fated venture for a 2-second Egyptian - Israeli interim agreement. Congressional -supporters of a better at¬ mosphere for Syrian Jews felt pressure against Syria would he considered by the Administration as jeopar¬ dizing the Kissinger mission. The Administration's move to allow a second loan for Syria brought angry op¬ position at a* hearing in which Administration policy was " roundly, scored as detrimental to American interests since principle was being sacrificed for pragmatic deals which, as Rep. Benjamin S. Rosenthal (D. NY) and others in¬ dicated have resulted in failure iri other parts of the world. In addition to the op¬ position at a public hearing, 57 House members called on President Ford to take up the issue of harassment of Syrian Jews arid refusal to allow them to emigrate, with Syrian Foreign Minister Abdal Halim Khaddam during his visit here last weekend. The President, it appears, did not refer to the issue with Khaddam in their one-hour White House meeting, but Administration sources hinted that it was mentioned in "diplomatic channels:" "Our general policy for supporting free emigration is known to the. government of Syria," a White House spokesman told the Jewish Telegraphic (CONTINUED ON PAGE 11) Bexley Salutes Rabbi Zelizer Rabbi Nathan Zelizer, who retired in 1974 after 43 years' service to Temple-Tifereth Israel, will be saluted July 4 as Bexley's Citizen of the Year.

And despite the widely divergent viewpoints that marked' their discussions, they left Jerusalem exchanging addresses, promising to write and planning visits. The seminar — which also included tours of Jerusalem and dancing and singing in the Hostel's Steinberg Pavillion — revived a project initiated, several years ago by the Hostel in cooperation with the Israeli Ministry of Education, the Government Information Office and Histadrut to foster better understanding between Jews and Arabs.
