JWV Calls For Troop Withdrawal
By End Of Year At Parley
MINNEAPOLIS (JTA)— The
Jewish War Veterans reversed
a seven-year policy here and
approved a resolution calling on
President Nixon to withdraw all
American troops from Indochina
by the end of the year.
The resolution, passed over
whelmingly at the JWV con
vention here, made the JWV
the country’s first veterans or
ganization to change its stand to
on* favoring prompt with
drawal. “There is little to be
gained from extensive argu
ments over how, why or who
was responsible for the decis
ions that resulted in our coun
try becoming mired in the bot
tomless pit of Indochinese geo
politics,” the convention de
clared ‘Hindsight will contribute
nothing to the solution of the
Vietnam guagmire.”
The large majority of the 2,000
delegates, representing more
than 100,000 men and women
JWV members, made the fol
lowing arguments for withdra
wal by year’s end: the war is
immoral and useless and there

can be no winner; the United
States should never have gotten
involved in the first place; the
war has put the American econ
omy “out of whack” and caused
domestic hardships; U. S. in
volvement in Indochina has led
to a loss of confidence in
American leadership; South
Vietnam is not a viable democ
racy, and the Pentagon Papers
have proved that U. S. involve
ment was the result of Wash
ington “chicanery.”
Warren Adler, a spokesman
for the JWV, the oldest active
war veterans organization in the
U. S., advised the Jewish Tele
graphic Agency that its change
in policy was the result of a
“tremendous fight” by antiwar
elements within the ranks who
over a period of seven years
managed finally to have their
“strong feelings” prevail. “They
did it out of conviction,” Adler
said, calling the resolution “a
real major step forward.”
He said Jerome D. Cohen, a
New York lawyer who succeed
ed Albert Schlossberg as JWV
Commander, “led the fight” for
the resolution. Cohen also spear
headed — despite strong White
House pressure — a demonstra
tion in New York last year
against visiting French Presi
dent Georges Pompidou for his
refusal to send Israel 50 Mirage
jets she had paid for.
The JWV convention rejected
the view that U.S. support for
South Vietnam was equivalent
to U. S. support for Israel.

Extend Term for Israel's
U.S. Ambassador Rabin
JERUSALEM (JTA) — The
term of Gen. Yitzhak Rabin as
Israel’s ambassador to the
United States has been ex
tended at the request of
Premier Golda Meir and For
eign Minister Abba Eban. Mi
chael Arnon, the government
secretary, said the information
was given to the Cabinet by
Eban and that Rabin had agreed
to the extension. 'There have
been persistent reports that
Rabin was scheduled to be re
called to Israel for a Cabinet
post.
The announcement gave no
indication as to the length of
the extension but it is expect
ed that he will probably re
main as envoy until the sum
mer of 1972. He has served in
Washington since the start of
1968.
Usually reliable sources said
the decision to continue him as
ambassador stemmed from the
delicate negotiations over an
interim Egyptian-Iaraeli agree
ment on reopening of the Suez
