After Reagan announced the appointment at the White House, McFarlane, who has been special Middle East envoy since July 22, told reporters,he believes in continuity in U.S. Mideast policy. But he noted that he saw his job as "not to be an advocate but to be a coordinator." At the same time, he gave some clues as to .where that policy is going when he was asked whether the Administration was concerned about the Palestinian people. He replied that that concern reflected in Reagan's Sept. 1, ' 1982 Mideast peace initiative? "The history of the Palestinian community like that of the Lebanese is a very sad history," McFarlane said. He said there were a "number of ideas in progress" for improving the conditions of the Palestinians in Lebanon and on the West Bank. While not going into details, he said the Palestinians are in a state of "flux" and the U.S. "has opportunities it has not had' until now." Repeating that Palestinian history was "sad," he declared: "It's time to stop reading about it and try to make a little of it." At the same time, McFarlane, who has been deputy assistant for National Security Affairs under Clark, stressed that he believes in a "strong U.S.-Israeli relationship. "I have always felt that. way and I shall remain to think* that way." He also noted the the U.S. was "concerned" about Israel's economic difficulties and would welcome exchanges with Israel about means of helping to alleviate it. McFarlane also stressed that a "strong relationship is vital to the security of American interests in the Middle East." But he maintained that reports during his negotiations in Lebanon Dr. Marvin Fox To Highlight Torah Academy Dinner To highlight the 25th anniversary of Torah Academy, Dr. Marvin Fox will return to Columbus for the Annual Scholarship Dinner, Sunday, Nov. 13, at the Hyatt- Regency, Hotel.

Both Reagan and McFarlane made clear, the Administration's determination to keep the U.S. marines in Lebanon despite the casualties they have suffered. Reagan said' the marines are there because it is "vitally important for the . security of the United States and the Western world that we do everything we can to further the peace process in the Middle East." A ma joFquestion raised by the McFarlane appointment is whether it will lead to a renewal of the public squabbles over the Midtlle East, as , well as other issues, between Secretary of State George Shultz and Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger or whether McFarlane will be able to control this in his job as "coordinator" of policy. Shultz reportedly had supported McFarlane's appointment, as did Clark, while it had been opposed by Weinberger and Central Intelligence Director William Casey.
