U.S. Urged Jo Accept Israel Currencey for Hawfr Missiles Washington (JTA)—National Commander Morton London of the Jewish War Veteraas of the U.S.A. asked the Department of State, in the light of developments in India and Cuba, to facilitate Israel's acquisition of Hawk antiaircraft missile's by permitting Israel to pay in local currency—Israeli pounds— just as India has now been permitted to pay for arms in rupees. Mr. London, who returned last month from Israel, cited the menace to Israel by the continuing flow of Soviet jet bombers and missiles to three Arab states surrounding Israel, the United Arab Republic, Syria and Iraq. "The United States," he said, "cannot expect Israel to be less apprehensive about a Soviet jet and missile buildup on her borders than our own nation is about the aggressive Soviet weapons provided to Fidel Castro."
Anfi-Ssmific Poster Appears in ioscow LONDON (JTA) — A photograph depicting graphically how Soviet officials condone antiSemitism was featured on the front page of the Sunday. Telegraph here. The photograph s h o w e d a g r o u p of Russians gathered around a poster picturing a weed being uprooted, with the face of a caricatured Jew as the weed's head. On the poster also there is a photograph of a Jew named Katz, identified as a person convicted of "illegal financial transactions." The slogan on the poster read: "Parasites: Get out of Moscow!" The wording on the poster also attacked rabbis and synagogues. The S u n d a y Telegraph declared: "This blatant example of anti-Semitism follows reports that it has been growing in Russia in recent months." The newspaper l a u d e d the Australian Government for recently raising the issue of officially condoned Soviet anti-Semitism in the United Nations. The Soviet Academy of Sciences has published a book attacking Judaism, entitled "Criticism of the Jewish Religion," according to Evening Moscow, a newspaper published in the USSR capital, received here.
"It is incredible to expect tiny Israel to defend herself against the world Communist onslaught, as. manifested by the Soviet offensive weapons now poised on her borders, without a more realistic approach to financing Israel's purchase of such a sophisticated defensive weapons system as the Hawk," the JWV leader wrote to the Secretary of Stale.
