UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. - U.S. Ambassador
Daniel P. Moynihan casts the 12th U.S. veto in the 30-
year history of the United Nations Security Council to
block a resolution that would have condemned the
recent-Israeli air raids on Palestinian targets in
Lebanon without al$o mentioning'' Arab- violence
against Israel. The vote was 13-1 with Costa "Rica-
abstaining.
Mr. Moynihan told the Council that the United States
"strongly deplores" the Israeli action in Lebanon but
had reluctantly vetoed the resolution because it was
not balanced.

Charge Film Is Missionary;
Ads Misrepresent Its Theme
NEW YORK (JTA) - It
appeared unlikely on Dec. 9
that the New York City
Department of Consumer
Affairs will take any action
on a request by an Orthodox
Jewish organization that the
film, "The Hiding Place," be
labelled as a' missionary
movie. A spokesman for
Consumer Affairs
Commission Elinor
Guggenheimer told the
Jewish Telegraphic Agency
that the department is
investigating the complaint
made by Agudath Israel
of America 'that "news¬
paper advertisements
misrepresent the  film  as
, being commercial
entertainment on a
Holocaust theme, when
actually it is an out-and-out
' mission tract with a hard¬
sell evangelical pitch." The
spokesman said, however,
there  is   no  law   which
, requires the producer's
name to be on
advertisements for the film.

i$ based on a book written by
' Corrie ten Boom, a Dutch-
Christian woman, who
helped save some Jews

JERUSALEM (WNS) -
The veto by the United
States of a United Nations
Security Council resolution
condemning Israel for its air
raids on terrorist
strongholds in Lebanon was
welcomed with satisfaction
by the Israeli government. A
Foreign Ministry spokesman
said the U.S. had prevented
another onesided resolution,
whiqh ignored' the
"abominable crimes" of the
terrorist organizations.
Thirteen of the 15 Council
members voted for the
resolution, with Costa Rica
abstaining, and the U.S.
casting the only negative
vote which constituted a
veto. U.S. Ambassador
Daniel P. Moynihan told the
Council that the U.S. was a
mediator in the Middle East
conflict and could only
support an  even-handed
resolution. When proposed
American amendments
including terrorist raids
along with Israel in the
condemnation    were
rejected, Moynihan received
approval from Secretary of
State Henry A. Kissinger to
veto the resolution. Israeli
