The stained glass windows were shattered. Part of the ceiling was wrecked. Heavily armed police'wearing bulletproof vests and young Jewish defense guards were everywhere..The relatively small sanctuary -was crowded with regular worshippers, government officials and visitors from other parts of Paris and overseas who came to demonstrate their solidarity with the Rue Copernic congregation and French Jewry as a whole. Carter Reaffirms Opposition NEW - YORK, (JTA)=-Fresident Carter • repeated his opposition to a Palestinian state and reiterated his pledge not to recognize nor to negotiate with the Palestine Liberation Organization until it accepts Israetfsjight to exist.

'Terrorism is a crime against decency and humanity, whether it occurs on the streets of Paris or the streets of Jerusalem, whether those responsible are neo- Nazis or members of the PLO." '-, By Yitzhak Rabi NEW YORK, (JTA)-Two prominent Jewish leaders said today that there was an obvious connection between French .Middle East Policy and the recent wave of anti- Semitic acts in France, including the bombing of the Rue Copernic, Temple in Paris. That viewpoint was expressed by Howard Squadron, chairman of the Conferr ence of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, and Rabbi Alexander Schindler,' president of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations (UAHC), at a meeting of ^ the Presidents Conference- here. Squadron spoke of the meeting he had earlier last week with the French Ambassador to the U.S., Francois de la Boulez and Schindler reported on ' his ,visit to Paris recently to speak at.the bombed out synagogue. .-* 'A ■} \ t \ 'i / i LaJLl L / Plans for the November 11 "Evening With MIKE KELLIN" are being handled by Women's Division Advance Gifts Coordinator Linda Selcer (top photo, right).

"I have not seen any sign that the French government will reconsider its Middle East policy which is to appease and give respectability to the PLO," Squadron said, "to join prominently in every public criticism of Israel no matter how extravagant; and unjustified; to risk global catastrophe by providing nuclear knows-how to the radical regime in Baghdad in exchange for Iraqi oil; and generally to .sabotage the Camp'David peace process." He said hetold the French envoy that the attitude of the Jewish community in America and Americans generally toward France "is going to be tainted" as a result of the French government's pro-Arab policy.
