RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO By Yitzhak Kabi UNITED NATIONS, (JTA) — Prospects increased that the Arabs and their supporters will come up with a relatively moderate draft resolution in the current Security Council debate on the Middle East which the U.S. would find difficult to veto on grounds that it impairs progress toward peace and which, according to sources here, is aimed at creating a rift between Israel and the U.S. The anticipated resolution would ask for recognition of the "national rights of the Palestinians" and thereby open the way for PLO participation - at a reconvened Geneva conference, the sources Said. Meanwhile, an Israeli official confirmed to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that Security Council President Salim Ahmed . Salim of Tanzania, has. been hi contact with Israel's UN Ambassador Chaim Herzog urging him to participate in the Council debate which Israel is boycotting because of the presence of the PLO. The Council voted 11 - 1 on Jan. 12 to seat the PLO v delegation. The U.S. cast the only negative vote. Britain, France and Italy abstained. The vote was procedural and not' subject to veto. The delegates who favored ■ admitting the PLO to participation with the rights of a UN member state except the right to vote, explained, that their position was based on what they Abzug Denies Claim of Anti-Israel Or Anti-Semitic Trend In Women's Liberation \ i By David Friedman NEW YORK, (JTA) - Rep. Bella Abzug (D. NY) strongly rejected Jan. 15 a claim that there was an anti- ' Semitic or anti-Israel trend in the women's liberation movement. "I know of no evidence of it and if there were evidence, it (anti- Semitism) would be crushed," she told some 100 women attending a day-long conference on Zionism sponsored by the American Zionist Federation at the America Israel Friendship House. Abzug, a leader of the feminist movement, was challenged on' the < anti- Semitism issue after she spoke about the Internationa] Women's Year Conference in Mexico City which she attended as an official Congressional observer. She said the clause in the "Declaration of Mexico" calling for the elimination of Zionism was not a feminist measure but was adopted by delegates who represented governments, not women, at the United Nations- sponsored conference in Mexico City. Several women told Abzug that they had found anti-Semitic and anti- Zionist ideology expressed at local feminist meetings. They charged that Judaism was being blamed' for oppressing women. I have never seen or heard what you described," Abzug replied, noting that she has a strong consciousness both as a woman and a Jew and would recognize any anti- Semitic trend. She said there are probably anti-Semites in the women's movement just as there is in society as a whole but stressed that the movement's leaders such as Karen DeCrow, president of the National Organization of Women, have strongly condemned the anti-Zionist moves by the United Nations General Assembly. Faye Schenk, president of the AZF, said if the women who raised the question found an anti-Semitic trend in local organizations, it was up to them to oppose it personally on the local level. Rachel Jacobs, executive director of (CONTINUED ON PAGE 12) regarded as "precedents" for such action. U.S. Ambassador Daniel P. Moynihan, however, insisted that the seating of the PLO was "illegal" because the PLO was not a state, did not recognize Israel and did not accept Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338 as the basis of peace negotiations. Shortly before midnight on Jan. 13 two bombs were discovered at the Iraqi UN Mission. -Police sources indicated they were similar to the three pipe bombs discovered at the entrance to a subway service tunnel under the UN library building Jan. 12. The two bombs at the Iraqi Mission were found after an anonymous caller telephoned WCBS-TV at 11:08 p.m. that there were bombs at the Mission. The caller, a man, identified himself as a representative of the "Jewish Underground Army." More than'an Hour ' later, CBS radio received a call from a man who said he represented the "Jewish Armed Resistance Strike Movement" of the Jewish Defense League. The caller, apparently unaware that the bombs had been discovered and dismantled, said, according to CBS' sources, "We would like to accept responsibility for the bombing of - the Iraqi Mission." He also said "We would also like to say it is quite possible several more bombs are placed around the city. W« are not saying this is definite but the UN had better watch out." the bombs at the Iraqi Mission were found propped against a door leading to the Mission's basement entrance. According to police, they were wrapped in black plastic sheeting and were concealed in a shopping bag. Seven persons in the building at the time were evacuated. Meanwhile, a UN spokesman announced that three more bomb threats were telephoned to the UN. The Council sessions are expected to be presented shortly with either amendments to Resolutions 242 and 338 or additional provisions which will call not only for the recognition of Palestinian rights but for PLO participation < at Geneva. The new proposals may also demand Israel's withdrawal from all occupied territories within one year and a return to its pre-June, 1967 borders under penalty of UN sanctions. Still another possible resolution is one calling for the creation of a Palestinian state on the West Bank and Gaza Strip, sources said. If the U.S. finds itself unable to veto all of these possible resolutions, Israel, would be more diplomatically isolated than ever before, which, apparently, is the Arab aim, the sources said. The U.S. has'said it would veto any resolution that it sees as impairing progress toward peace. It may thus block a measure calling for Israel's evacuation from all occupied territories since Resolution 242 does not make such a demand, at least as it is interpreted by the U.S. and other Western countries and Israel. It calls only for Israel's eventual withdrawal from "territories" within the framework of a peace settlement. The resolution also does not mention the •(CONTINUED ON PAGE 12) Richard Harris and Lloyd Harris as they appear in the Country Dinner Playhouse production of "1776." Hadassah Donor Event Will Be Jan. 25 At Playhouse Chapter President Beverly Shafran and Donor Chairman ■ Barbara Weingrad have announced that the 1976 Annual Hadassah Donor Event will take place Jan. 25 at 6 p.m. at the Country Dinner Playhouse, Tussing Rd., Reynoldsburg. The evening's events will consist of a cocktail party, combo, buffet dinner and the dynamic show "1776," which has played to standing room only crowds since the beginning of December. The donor event is the culmination of an extensive campaign to raise money for two hospitals, led by solicitations chairman. Carta Paine. All donations go 100% to Hadassah projects in Israel. A donation of $36.00 as a donor or $60.00 as a patron enables one to attend this event. The couvert for the evening's activities will be $10.00 per person. Mrs. Abe Shatz, 84 N. Merkle Rd. is in charge of reservations. Transporta¬ tion Chairman is Mrs. Jack'Stone. "Linked Together For the Good of All," the theme for the Hadassah Annual Donor Campaign .was chosen for the significant emphasis it places upon Hadassah's work and for the dream of Hadassah Women, that they may in some way bridge the gap of terrorism and war in the Middle East by healing and teaching both Arab and Jew. Hadassah has been alive and well in Columbus for fifty-eight years,' and during America's Bicentennial year it seems very apropos that Hadassah should have, -a "Re- Birthday," which took place in Jerusalem on "Mt. Scopus," with the rededication of their "First Hill of Healing." Working under the capable leadership of Carla Paine were the group donor chairmen, Mesdames Jerry Liepack, George Rosinger, Irvin Roth, Jeannette Papier, Maxwell Fishking, Michael Talis, Isaiah' Shavitt, Faye Smith and Bertha Krau'sz. Group Donor Treasurers: Mesdames George Molar, A. H. Kanter, Lana Zeitsman, Sam Robeano and Barry Smith.
