Soviet settlers in U.S. expected to triple in 74
NEW YORK (JCNS) - Jewish Chronicle News Ser-
.At least. 4,000 Soviet, emi- vice correspondent that grants, most of them Jews; • more and more Russian are expected to settle in the ~Jews look upon their exit United States this year. This visa to Israel as a way-of
figure compares with 450 in 19.72 and. 1,450 last year-;
The Ford Foundation has allocated $250,000 to help scholars and writers from • the Soviet Union integrate into American.society; Miss Mary Mackler, who is to head the program atthe American Council for Emigres in the Professions, which will ad-minister the funds, told the
escape^frpm the Soviet Union.
''At the_beginning of the exodus (from the^ Soviet Union), Jewish emigrants strongly identified themselves as Jews and headed for Israel. Now, more and more of them. view.their exitvisas: for Israel as simply a way of getting out of the . Soviet" Union."
Son thinks Day an should resign bost
TEL AVIV (JTA) -
Assaf Dayan, Moshe Da-yan's film: actor sonj.thinks his father should resign from the government irrespective , of whether or not he is found Israel's poor state of preparedness on the eve of the .Yom Kippur War. Assaf took sharp issue with his sister, novelist Yael .Dayan-Sion, ;Who said m an interview
with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency: in New York that she thought her father should not resign and that her brothers, Audi and Assaf share :her feelings.
Assaf said that •'Yael was not asked to represent the family . . . we do not come as a package deal.The family said this or the familv said that." .
Gaynor I. Jacobson, exe-: cutive vice-president of United HIAS.Service, said Israel still absorbs 90% of Russian immigration. Of the 4,000 expectedjn the U.S.; some liOOO-have already arrived and another 1,000 are waiting for visas in Rome. --The grant from the Ford Foundation arose because many immigrants, despite special skills and .experience, find it difficult to adjust to America because of language and culture. One agency dealing with the, problem reported "that no group in recent years has faced so many difficulties in adjusting to life in a new country."
Recent Russian immi-. grants have jibbed at taking temporary "bread and butter" jobs until they could resume their professions; l-'hysicians generally resist the idea of taking qualifying tests to go into practice. The. Ford grant is limited to scholars and writers because this IS consistent with the foundation's objects of encouraging- intellectual pursuits, and the prohibitive cost of extending it to all professional groups.

Deny report of withdrawal by Israel from entire Sinai
Aid to Arabs revealed
Puzzling U.S. stance
WASHINGTON (JTA) -
The U.S. government sold Hawk surface-to-air miST sites and support equipment to Saudi Arabia, armored cars to Lebanon, and cargo planes to Saudi Arabia and_ Lybia after Col.>Muammar . Qaddafi came to power. Rep. , Clarence D. Long (D. Md.) .has tbld the'Congress.
In.a speech in the House, Long said the data the State . Department'has "finally delta ss if led'' after four -jonths of. prodding on U.S. commercial shipments to Arab nations between 1966 and 1972 "are one more part of the puzzle surrounding the.stance of the U.S.' in: the Middle. East during the arms buildup that preceded the attack on israel" onOct. 6.
. The department's disclosure, he also said, "is but one more illustration pf the fact that U.S. policy in the Middle East has been the opposite of what it "has appeared to be ^-namely to favor . the Arab countries, not Israel."
Long previously had told Congresis "the little-appre-• ciated fact" that total U.S. economic, and military as sistance to the Arabs between 1967 and 1973. was almost 2 1/2 times the total Soviet aid to the Arabs in the same period. In those six years; he said, U.S. assistance: to the Arabs was$8,952 billion compared to $3,807 billion in uvs. economic military and private assistance' to israel.
In seeking information on U:S. armssalestotheArabs,. Long asked for a report on exports to..Egypt,Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the Sudan, Libya, Tuni-"si.a, Algeria, Morocco and Lebanon. In. his response, . former Virginia Governor Lindwood Holton, now Assistant. Secretary of State for
JERUSALEM (JTA) -
Foreign ministry officials have said ithere IS no foun-' dation to Egyptian newspaper reports that Israel has agreed to withdraw from the entire Sinai peninsula. The reports claimed Foreign Minister Abba Eban had made such 'a statement, to Secretary of State Henry. A.. Kissinger during their"" taljksin Washington last week. The officials said;that Eban made no promises in Washington and deputed the government had discussed additional Israeli withdraw-. ais in Sinai. ■ . . .

Settlers in the Golan Heights, meanwhile, have taken steps to create ".facts" that would preclude the eventual return, to Syria of Kun-eitra, the largest town on
the Golan heights which Israel captured in the 1967Six Day War; The Golan settlers have established a "Kuneit-ra Development Fund" intended to carry out projects m the town and its environs. . These include the construction of new housing and the cultivation of agricultural lands.:
