The proposal, worked out in two days of closed-door meetings by three House members and three senators, trims $116 million from the amount originally requested by Gov. Shapp. Key to the compromise was a $30-million cut in proposed state aid to county courts.

Continued on Page 2, Column 1 meeting of a Pope and a patri arch since the 15th century, and JERUSALEM (AP) The Israeli Supreme Court on Thursday threw out a request by an Israeli lawyer to rule that Jesus Christ got an unfair trial. Atty. Yitzhak David said he made the appeal "in the hope that it may reduce the anti-Semites of the world by even one person," But the court ruled that the issue, was "historic, not juridical," and that David had "not proved he suffered personal damage" through what he called a "miscarriage of justice" against Christ. In an extraordinary hearing, the three judges first asked David why he thought the Supreme Court should make the ruling.

"Because you are the first national Jewish court to arise since the time of Jesus," he replied. The judges argued that Jesus was tried by the Roman occupiers of Israel, not by a civilian court. But lawyer David said Christ was brought to trial before the Sanhedrin, the Jewish court of ancient times. The court insisted Christ was sentenced by the Romans, and that David should take the issue before an Italian court. David cited Israeli laws empowering Israeli courts to rule on cases heard by the former Turkish and British occupiers of.

Palestine. "Jesus did not receive a fair trial," said David's appeal. "He was brought before the Sanhedrin out of blind hatred, and on trumped up charges, and he could not receive a fair trial." "As long as the Supreme Court does not affirm this, the world will wallow in the darkness of blind hatred, and will bring endless troubles upon Israel," the appeal said. David, a 36-year-old resident of Ei-lat, Israel's southern Red Sea city, brought the appeal to court in the name of David Biton, also an Eilat Jew. He said this was a ploy, because the court usually frowned upon appeals by men of the legal profession.

David told a newsman thousands of letters had reached the Supreme Court since Israel's establishment, asking that the court rule on this matter. "The Greeks and the Vatican have all expurgated tracts of the New Testament blaming the Jews for Christ's death," he said. "But we Jews have done nothing." The lawyer said he conceived his appeal after reading how Samuel H. Sheppard, an Ohio doctor convicted of killing his wife, was freed in 1966 after 11 years in prison when his lawyer, F. Lee Bailey, proved he did not get a fair trial.

Sheppard died in 1970. "I expected to win my appeal," said David.
