The Congressmen cited authoritative reports to the effect that the CIA has financed the American Friends of the Middle East, a pro-Arab, anti-Israel propaganda front. They called for an Investi Ryan and Mr. Rosenthal said "the CIA underminesi the Admin¬ istration policy of friendship to¬ ward Israel by secretly funding the AFME." They cited AFME's attacks on Israel and propagan¬ da issued by Elmo Hutchison, AFME's former Middle East di¬ rector. They pointed out that AFME help? finance and guides an organization it created, the Organization of Arab Students. The group spreads anti-Israel and sometimes anti-Jewish prop¬ aganda at over 100 American colleges and universities by Arab students. l!he Arab student ac¬ tivity is supported, by the Arab League in Cairo, which sends out the propaganda lines to lie followed. The CIA apparently financed the anti-Israel propa¬ ganda in an effort to woo young Artlbs away from Communism. THB. TWO Congressmen said: gation by President Johnson. On a number of occasions, AF¬ ME petitioned Congress ,to take anti-Israel positions. AFME also opposed measures designed to reUeve the plight of Soviet Jew¬ ry. Among the leaders of AFME have boen such former State Department officials as Harold B. Minor, who served in the State Department's Near East¬ em division. Charges' were made in 1963 in testimony before the Senate For¬ eign Relations Committee that $4,000,000 was paid by the Uni¬ ted States Govemment to fi¬ nance AFME. The testimony was offered by Bushrod'Howard, Jr., a representative ,of the royalist Yemen Government. Ihe ' State Department denied the charges. It emerged later that AFME's expenditures, in excess of $1,000,- 000 a year for a number of years, w^re subsidized through various condiUts by the CIA. MOST OF the AFME funds were spent to bring Arab stu¬ dents to the,United States, whose main activity turned out to be anti-Israel propaganda.
