WASHINGTON, (JTA) -
Democratic candidate
Jimmy. Carter's victory in
the ' Presidential ' election
Nov. 2 that culminated his
amazing two-year drive
from political provincialism
to the White House augurs
well for strong • American
support of Israel's require¬
ments and on other issues of
Jewish interest and concern.
From the time the former
Georgia   Governor   inau¬
gurated his campaign at the
National Press Club here
nearly two years ago he has
espoused economic, military
and  political  support  fori]
Israel — support that he en-v
han'ced   with   additional
pledges   in  speeches   and
statements as the.primary
and   election   campaigns
gathered momentum. Speci¬
fically, Carter is committed'
to' U.S. aid that "must be
responsive    to    Israel's
needs," saying "Israel must
feel secure in the support
, that it expects from America
in order to, take the neces- .
sary risk„s for peace."
i -. Conversely, he -has -urged
that "the U.S. should not
create the" need for aid to
Israel by eroding Israel's
security - through uncon¬
trolled arms sales to Israel's
adversaries." "As regards
Egypt," he said, advocating
direct Arab-Israel nego¬
tiations, "I would not favor
any sale of military supplies
until after Egypt has worked
out a permanent settlement
recognizing Israel and. its
right to exist in the Middle
East as a peaceful nation."

Jewish Vote Helped Carter Win,
35 % Clairhed By Ford Supporters
(JTA) — Jewish voters in such key states as New '
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio helped contribute the
deciding edge Nov. 2 that enabled Jimmy Carter to eke
, out a slim victory over President Ford, according to in¬
complete results.
Carter's headquarters in Atlanta said the Jewish
vote for the former Georgia Governor totalled 75"per- •
cent. This is midway between the 85 percent received
by Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey in 1968 and the 65 percent
given to Sen. George McGovern in 1972.
Supporters of President Ford said Nov. 4 that nation¬
wide at least 35 percent — or about one in every three
Jewish voters — cast their ballots for Ford. In addition
to their own surveys of precincts in Jewish neighbor¬
hoods, the Ford backers referred to the New York
Times - CBS poll that estimated 32 percent of the
Jewish vote went to, Ford and .to the Lou Harris poll
showing 45 percent for Ford and 54 percent for Jimmy
-   Carter. " ,,.,.-.
In I^ew York City where a heavy plurality won the • ,
state for Carter,' the Democratic candidate received 80
.percent of the vote, according to some estimates.
Carter did very well in heavily Jewish areas. of -
- BrookiynV Manhattan and The Bronx; Carter's:head- -'-
, quarters said that in th,e heayily Jewish areas of Phila-
- 'delphia---whiv2h-are--represented by-Democratic-Rep-."' '*•*■
Joshua Eilberg, Carter won with 70-75 percent of the-.
vote.   ,' ,
In the Cleveland suburb of Cleveland Heights,.
Carter's headquarters said he won 80 percent of the
vote. But a breakdown of 13 heavily-Jewish precincts in
the Cleveland suburbs of South Euclid, Beachwood and
University Heights, found that Carter won by a slim
margin of 3361 to 2886 votes. However, Howard M.
Metzenbaum, the successful Democratic candidate for
the Senate- who comes from the Cleveland area,
'   carried these precincts by a 6-1 margin.
The Jewish vote in Michigan was estimated to have
split fairly evenly between Carter and Ford despite a
heavey Democratic registration by Jews in that state.
One of the reasons given was a sentimental apprecia¬
tion for Ford, who is from Michigan and was one of the
pioneer supporters of Israel during his 25 years in the
