(Copyright 1977, JTA, Inc.) By Joseph Polakoff WASHINGTON, (JTA) - The United States govern¬ ment obliquely appeared to take comfort in what did not happen over the Labor Day weekend at the meeting in Cairo of Arab foreign 'ministers. The ministers agreed on a general strategy for pressing the United Na¬ tions General Assembly, which begins its 32nd session Sept. 20, to impose-severe strictures on Israel but re¬ portedly" rejected a move to suspend Israel from the world body. State Department spokes¬ man Hodding Carter refused to discuss the Cairo meeting. However, the Voice of America (.VOA), which takes policy guidance from 'Body & Soul-Ethics' To Be Discussed During 19th Religious Emphasis Week The Beth Jacob Congrega¬ tion, under the leadership of Rabbi David Stavsky, is proud to announce that for the 19th consecutive year -Beth-Jacob .will .host a Reli-. gious Emphasis Week (R.E.W.) program. This na¬ tionally recognized event provides the entire Colum¬ bus community with an op¬ portunity to listen to and question outstanding speak¬ ers'. As has been true-in the past, this year's topic "Body and Soul — Ethics" forces the community, along with the expert speakers, to con¬ front several controversial problems. Issues such as "pulling the plug," "inform¬ ing the patient of death," "testing of drugs on humans (with or without prior con- Pictured above are members of the committee which helped plan the 19th Religious Emphasis Week at Beth Jacob Congregation.

The "Southbound Express" is for those women who spend all or part of .the win¬ ter season in Florida1 or else¬ where. _'. "I am delighted that At¬ torney General Brown has accepted our invitation to address our group," said Mrs. Jean Schottenstein, co- chairwoman of the "South¬ bound Express," "Since his -recent visit to Israel in March,' he has been an arti-' , culate spokesman on behalf Attorney General William Brown of Israel's cause.

Apparently there was a conscious de^ cision here not to engage in vituperative public ex¬ changes so soon before the foreign ministers of the Mideast area go to New York and Washington later this month to hold talks with President Carter and Secre¬ tary of State Cyrus Vance. The Arab foreign ministers urged the upcoming United Nations General Assembly to take strong mea¬ sures against Israel and intend to urge the world body to condemn Israel's settlement policy in the occupied territories. They have also approved a draft resolution asking the UN to call on member states' to halt military and economic aid to Israel; urging the restoration of all rights of the Palestinian people including their right to return, self-determination and the creation of a Palestinian state. . (CONTINUED ON PAGE 7) Israeli Draft Of Received, Arab By Joseph Polakoff WASHINGTON, (JTA) - The United States acknowl¬ edged Sept. 7 that it has re¬ ceived proposals from Israel to settle the Middle East con¬ flict and indicated its ex¬ pectations that the Arab go¬ vernments will submit drafts for, discussion here and in New York beginning after the middle of this month. State Department spokes- ' man Hodding Carter said PjeacpJ*lan Is Proposals Due Israel's draft was trans¬ mitted "relatively receritly" and that while none has yet come from the Arabs, "it is- entirely possible" that they • will be forthcoming.

The VOA noted that "what did not happen" in Cairo was "a rejection of continuing American efforts to find a ■ . solution both the Arabs and Israelis can live with. That kind of stance would have also included a campaign to convince the UN member¬ ship* that Israel' in effect ought to be declared a pariah state. Also rejected was the argument, advanced by some of the conferees, that the Arab states and the Palestine Liberation Organi¬ zation Should look away ' from Washington and de¬ pend mostly on the Soviet Union." That, the VOA continued, "would have amounted to a statement that the U.S. can¬ not move the Israelis who. have undeniably hardened ■ the] Middle East situation by legalizing" Jewish settle-' ments on the West Bank. The . Arab foreign ministers, the VOA added, "agreed' on a campaign ..to , convince theTTfiJ-members to halt all military and economic aid to Israel unless Israel publicly changes its stance on the occupied terri¬ tories and a homeland for Palestinian Arabs."
