Says 7, 1986 President Coolidge, in his speech to the Farm Bureau Association, told them: I want you James M. Dorsey United Press International JERUSALEM Israel placed its embassies around the world on alert Thursday after a Palestinian terrorist leader threatened to avenge the Israeli interception this week of a Libyan executive jet bound for Syria. As Israels diplomatic missions were informed of the threat, Prime Minister Shimon Peres warned Israel would strike at "terrorist targets by land or by sea to avenge any attack on Israel. In Tripoli, Libya, Ahmed Jibril, n leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-GenerCommand, warned travelers to keep off U S. and Israeli carriers, which he said might be the target of a terrorist attack. We declare that we are free to take the appropriate measures in response to these attacks," Jabril said, according to the state-ru- n Libyan radio monitored by the British Broadcasting Corp. in London. In Washington, State Department spokesman Charles Redman branded the Palestinian warning as irresponsible and warned the United States By to know the Govis with you!

Officials in Jerusalem said El A1 Israel Airlines, target of Arab terror attacks Dec. 27 at airports in Rome and Vienna, was adding no extra measures in its already-tigh- t security procedures. But an Israeli official, who asked not be identified, said security was stepped up at Israels embassies around the world after the warning by Jibril, whose organization is believed to be responsible for the midair bombing of a Swissair jet in 1970 that killed 47 people. Every time there is a reason to believe some terrorist activities are planned, our embassies all over the world are informed, the Israeli official said. This is certainly a time that our people should be careful. Israeli warplanes intercepted the Libyan jet, carrying seven Libyan ofn ficials and two Lebanese militia leaders, near Cyprus Tuesday and forced it to land at an airfield in northern Israel. Israeli intelligence officials said they believed Palestinian terrorist would Peres told a meeting of the World Zionist Organization that Israel will strike at terrorist targets by land or by sea against any enemy.

After seven hours of questioning, the plane was allowed to continue on its flight from Tripoli to Damascus, Syria.

The Libyan executive jet intercepted by Israeli warplanes over the Mediterranean Sea on Tuesday turned out to be carrying nine Syrian and Lebanese politicians and not, as Israel suspected, Palestinian guerrilla leaders. Soviet Spy Held in S. Africa May Be Involved in Swap Falklands War to the Soviets, said By Susan J. Smith Associated Press Writer BERLIN A top Soviet spy held in South Africa will be involved in a major East-Weprisoner exchange at a Berlin border bridge early next week, theWest German newspaper Bild reported Thursday. Bild, which broke the story of the prisoner exchange last weekend, said former South African marine commander Diter Gerhardt would be among 11 Communist agents handed over to the East. Anatoly Shcharansky, a prominent Soviet human rights activist imprisoned since the late 1970s, was expected to be turned over to the West, too, the newspaper reported. Western and Soviet bloc officials confirmed Bilds initial report, and West German officials later said the swap is planned for Tuesday at Glien-ick- e Bridge, site of the last major reported East-Weprisoner exchange Bild. V Bild said Gerhardt worked at South Africas strategic Simonstown naval base, which has been used by NATO tyrces in the past. The imprisoned Soviet bloc agents likely to be handed over to the East on Tuesday include, according to st Bild: Yevgeny Semliakov, a Soviet trade mission official in Cologne, West Germany, who was sentenced to three years imprisonment June Sep- equipment banned for export to Communist countries. Rolf Hecht, an East German intelligence agent who was sentenced in West Germany to six years imprisonment in 1981 for betraying secrets on the U.S. Tornado jet to the Soviet-le- d Warsaw Pact alliance. In Warsaw, chief government spokesman Jerzy Urban was quoted by a Western news agency as saying, One person is returning to Poland, and nobody will leave Poland in exchange for him. I only know the prisoners surname is Kaczmarek and that he was jailed in West Germany. Urban apparently was referring to Jerzy Kaczmarek, 33, who was arrested last March in connection with espionage allegedly carried out in Bremen and other areas of West st in last tember for trying to obtain 1985. Allied military sources in West Berlin said Thursday the trade would take place Monday or Tuesday on the bridge. About five people were expected to be exchanged by each side, the sources said. Gerhardt, 50, was sentenced to life imprisonment in South Africa in early 1984 for providing information on British fleet movements in the 1982 mm SAVINGS UP TO 70 Drexel lounge chair.
