In a resolution adopted by the party Secretariat, the Mapai leaders pointed out that Mr. Eshkol had been elected unanimously by the Mapai Center for the post of Premier and as such enjoys the fullest confidence of the party. The resolution also expressed regret over Ben-Gurion's s t a t e m e n t last week against Premier Eshkol. •Resign' Thus far. no Mapai member of the Cabinet has responded to Premier Eshkol's demand last week that those sharing Mr. Ben-Gurion's opinions of Premier 'Eshkol, should resign from the Government. In issuing the challenge last week, Mr. Eslikol declared: "If there are members of the Government who think about me the way 'that man' does, I suggest they lr<;e1 themselves from their posts.' He added that despite the sharp attack on him. he intended to continue his policies until the

In addressing the Mapai Secretariat during the weekend, Premier Eshkol took up BenGurion's charge that he had opposed a renewed investigation of the Lavon Affair on grounds it would open a "Panlora's Box" of issues involving Israel's security activities. BenGurion had said that any individual afraid of P a n d o r a s Boxes should not be Premier even if the party's c e n t e r elected him. In a showdown over the Lavon issue. Premier Eshkol resigned last year and was renamed by his party and coalition partners. In reply to that charge, Mr. Eshkol told the Secretariat "one should respect parly institutions." He added that Ben-Gurion's interpretations over the "Lavon Affair"' were not correct.

Vatican Considers Declaration; Caflieiic Press Aslis Adoption; Pr©fesfenfs Urge End of Bigotry. ROME l JTA">--"Q u ii 1 i f i t- d sources" at the Vatican report that the Secretariat for the Promotion of Christian-Unity, which met at the Vatican all of last week to finalize its attitude toward Ihe Ecumenical Council's declaration on repudiating tho charge of deicide as applying to the Jewish people, has made no "material" changes in that document. The Secretariat, under the presidentcy of Augustin Cardinal Bea. consists of 30 bishops trom around the world. They met to consider 242 amendments to the Declaration on Relations With Non Christian Religions, adopted by the Ecumenical Council last November by the overwhelming vote of l.'Jfia to !)!). While no word has come from the Bea Secretariat about the discussions of the liO bishops, it was pointed out that many of the amendments were of a minor nature, and that a number of the amendments c o n c e r n e d wording in the draft declaration affecting the Moslems, rather than the Jews. According to some Vatican sources, the Secretariat made an effort to bolster the acceptability of the Declaration by improving some of the terminology "in such a way as to reduce Mos- , lem opposition to the principal objective of keeping intact those portions of the document which affect the Jewish people. It was asserted that no dilution of those portions were considered by the assembled bishops. The draft Declaration will be brought up again before the next session of the Ecumenical Council, to convene September 17. If approved by the Council finally next fall, it will then become official Catholic doctrine, after promulgation by Pope Paul VI.

CHICAGO fJTA)—A plea to the Catholic Church to adopt iinally the Declaration approved by the last session of the Ecumenical C o u n c i l , repudiating once and for all the charge of deicide concerning the Jewish people, was voiced lit-re by the Christian Century, one of the most influential Protestant journals in the United States. In an editorial in the current issue, the weekly summarized the status of the Declaration on Relations With Non-Christian Religions, carried overwhelmingly at the last session of the Ecumenical Council, and pointed out that stiff opposition to the Declaration had developed in highest Vatican circles. 'Christians on Trial' "Men of good will still hope that, at its fourth assembly. Vatican Council II will purge itself of hateful, bigoted, unbiblical. divisive and oppressive attitudes toward Jews." the Christian Century editorial said. "It is not- the Jew who is now on trial for the crucifixion of Christ, but Christians who. in vicious bigotry, slay the spirit of Christ in their cruel hounding of innocent Jews. Let the church begin its fourth assembly in contrition and repentance. Entitled 'Who Kills Christ Now?" the editorial declared: "Few proposals coining before Vatican. Council II spoke to the conscience of Christendom more directly or more pertinently than thta one which promised to retract the spurious, cruel charge that the Jews of the first century and of all subsequent centuries were collectively JSuilty of the death of Jesus of Niwnreth. Few proposals made by thejconvening bishops were morty certain evidence of the earnestness and thoroughness of their quest for an updating and renewal of the Roman Catholic Church. Majority Rule "It. was clear from the beginning that most of the bishops gathered in Vatican City wanted a strong statement to cancel the shame which the church had brought upon itself by its ancient slander of the Jews. It was plain that they wanted to do what they could to prevent recurrent persecution of Jews. Toward thus t-nil t!ic-y voted in overwhelming majorities. But as is now well known, the will of the majority in a Vatican Council assembly can be stifled by the church's wily administrators and, as happened last fall, by the Pope himself. The council proposes and the Curia disposes."
NEW YORK 'JTA>—Commonweal, a Catholic weekly edited here by laymen, declared editonally that the Catholic Church v/ill stand "condemned" if it failq to adopt finally the Declaration) passed at the last session of the* Ecumenical Council, repudiating the charge of deicide made historically against the Jewish people. . "It is shameful enough that the Church has taken two thousand years to corny io gri|*s with its j;uilt," tlie Commonweal said. "This shame has been compounded by the long stnigglo with the Council to achieve a 'strong position . . . If the council fails, or if it equvocates, the Church will stand condemned. That judgment will be justly deserved."

The teacher's letter, saying that he and his superiors had been the "victims of onesided and subjective and prejudiced information," was sent to .the Canadian Jewish Congress. Joining the teacher in the letter were his former principal, who;has been suspended indefinitely/and the director of the school commission in charge of his school, who has been assigned to other duties.

Making Senior Citizens ionfii a Reality President Lyndon B. Johnson has proclaimed May, ii)G5, as Senior Citizens Month. In urging community action to support existing programs for older Americans and to star them where needed, the President lias recognized that we have more than 18 million juen and women over 65 in the United States and every 20 seconds another American reaches this milestone of maturity. The theme of this special month-Meeting the Challenge of Aging Through (,'oimniinily Action for Older Americans—is precisely the goal of the Omaha Jewish Federation's efforts in the Dr. Philip Slier Home and the Senior Citizens Club. The greatest lag comes not from the absence of programs in fhe Jewish community, but i« "'*• lack of understanding or knowledge of existing services for those who need them. Despite central referral services, many pr-ople know little about what is available or equate-using professional service with loss of self-esteem and independence. Members of the Jewish community who wish to recognize Senior Citizens Month in even a small way, may well do so by acquainting themselves with the many programs and services for people past (10, and informing relatives and friends in the appropriate age brackets what the community has available for them. A call to the office of the Jewish Family Services, .'142-1 :jfi6, will provide the key to unlock the doors that sometimes bar the way (o the lull participation of the aged.

by Call Alpert Haifa -An Israeli family gets to know its neighbors far more intimately than do urban dwellers almost anywhere else. The, reason is the economic entity known as the cooperative apartment house. The. great m a jority of Israel's mult ip 1 e dwelling u n i t s are cooperatives (condominiums) and C. Alpert each family owns its own flat. Certain common interests, such as maintenance of •he garden, common .-• utilities, joint repairs, etc., made it necesb.iry to set up a procedure for cooperative operations, and this )(. provided for under a special Jaw of the State of Israel. The law was passed in 1(101, and it sets forth the exact procedure for registry of a cooperative house, management of Ihe common; property, . s e t t l e ment of disputes, allocation of taxes, and other problems that are apt to arise. There are 'two chief institutions *»vhich serve as '.•!«*' media for implementation of the program. One is the House Committee; the other the a n n u a 1 Meeting of the Householders. Committee Chairman Apartment houses of modest size, like most in Israel, ranging from six to twenty families each, usually select a three-man committee. The chairman is the one to whom the neighbors can bring their complaints. In effect he serves as a substitute for the nonexistent landlord, but ho enn also be much more independent than a landlord, for is he not one of the flat-owners as well? The treasurer has the unpleasant task of collecting the monthly dues — the amount which had been determined as necessary to cover the recurrent maintenance cost1;. The Annual meeting But where the Israeli really gets to know his neighbors at their best—and their worst—is »t the annual meetings. The occurrences at such meetings are usually the talk of the neighborhood for weeks thereafter, and rare indeed is the cooperative house which does not have its share of experiences like the following, more or less. Neighbor A. is not in attendonce. He has demonstratively remained away as a protest against the Committee's failure to Jinve the top steps repaired near his apartment.. However, after about thirty minutes of deliberations, he storms into the nctcmbl.v reminding one and all that-lbe windows wfoppn, find fct bus htnrtl bis name h
around; He won't stand for defamation! Neighbor B. s a y s nothing when the treasurer reports that certain of the co-owners have not paid their dues for months, but when pressed he admits that he will not pay until the gardner puts i: rose bush under his kitchen window, as he has for the flat-owner on the other side of the house. He has equal rights, and he stands on them. . Neighbor C. protests that the yard is being used as a thoroughfare by children who cross through it to the next street. He wants a high fence, with barbed wire, put up to prevent the traffic. Other neighbors object to the fence; the children don't bother them, and besides the rear exit to the next street is a convenience for them as well. Unless the fence goes up. Neighbor C. won't pay his dues, he threatens. Neighbor I), thinks a strong stand should be taken against those who hang their laundry out the front windows, facing on the street. It gives the house a bad appearance. Neighbor E. (whose flat faces front) says he is willing to stop the habit when Neighbor D. (whose flat faces Tcsr) rAr.o stops hanging thi? wash out his window. Neighbor F. tries to get into the conversation several times, but is hushed up each time by Mrs. F—who does most of the talking. Neighbor G. stalks out in the middle. He has no time for such foolishness. Tell him how much has to be paid and he'll pay. He lights a cigar as he leaves. There is the question of imposing an additional one-time contribution on each flat-owner to finance some major repairs. The treasurer warns that the scrub-woman is not going'', to do the hallway and s t a i r ' s next week unless she gets paid. The city has d e m a n d e d a levy against the house because of sidewalk and sewage improvements. The meeting u s u a l l y breaks up in argument and noisydisorder. No wonder that the Law of 1961 has thirteen separate paragraphs dealing with disputes among the co-owners. But one certainly g e t s to know one's neighbors quite well.

By Mickey Gerelick | Gloria iind Mike Fleischl are pail of a local program which offers home hospitality to loreign visitors in tiie community. A few weeks ago they agreed to host a small informal dinner party for a gentleman Irom Munich, Germany. It was not until u few days before his arrival that they learned their guest was a gentile, Mr. Btirgliard Freudenlekl. age 47. It was with some misgivings that the Fleisclil's realized they had committed themselves to entertain a German who was old enough to have been involved in the t-vtnts of the Hitler era. litirgliaid Fremlenleld Mr. Freudenfeld is in the United .States as a participant in the Foreign Leader Exchange Program of the United States Department of State. According to the information issued by the Governmental Affail's Institute, Burghard Freudenfcld is the chief editor of tlie Bavarian J'adio. He studied Protestant theology and law in Berlin, Munich and Frankfurt. He was editor of Munich's largest daily newspaper until .January liisit when he joined the staff of Bavarian Radio. In addition to several hooks on developing countries, international law and penal law, he wrote a book, "Israel—Experiment of a National Rebirth' 1 published in Munich in l!).r)l). Power of Prejudice Prejudice is an insidious force. I was prepared to dislike Mr. Freudenleld even before I met him. He was German, which w;is reason enough for me to dislike him. I was somewhat startled to find he did not fit my stereotyped image of an arrogant unfriendly German. Mr. Freudenfeld is an attractive, personable bachelor, articulate in spite of a language difficulty, and the uncomfortable position that evening of being in "an entirely Jewish social setting. Hitler Youth He- told us that his father .was a judge who was forced to retire in 1W!) because of his failure to affiliate with the Nazi party. Because of his father's "wrong" political leanings, Mr, Freudenfeld was removed from "Hitler Youth" after 3 months. 'Germany Guilty' "All of Germany is guilty for what happened to the Jewish people" Mr. Freudenfeld said. "I can't explain how or why it happened." Mr. Freudenfeld did offer the stock answer of many Germans that the masBM were not aware of the genocide, but added "even that is no excuse. We were aware of the Nurenburg policy of 1935 that outlined the racial policy against the Jews. We knew, but we did nothing." Jews In Germany "There are 30,000 Jews in Germany today" he said. "I don't know why they remain in Germany. While they have full citizenship, I wonder how they can live in the country that has such horrible memories for them. I think that if I were a Jew, I would live In the United States or in Israel. I could not live in Germany."
"The Jewish community in Germany is not united" he said, "nor do the Jews have any particular relationships with other Germans. They are isolated within themselves." JJeal Die Wounds Mr. Freudenleld has been to Israel 6 times in the past 10 years. At the invitation of the Israeli government his mission has been to tiy to mend the rift between the German people and Hie Jews of tlie world." "/ don't think it can be done in this gent-ration" he said. "The wounds are too deep and too fresh. Words can not erase the bitterness of (i million murders." "1 had occasion to teach a class at the University of Munich" Mr. Freudenfeld .said. "Among my students were lour German Jewish Youths, lone Jews from Israel and 5 Arab students. The Israeli students were able to relate more easily to their Arab classmates than they were to their fellow Jews from Germany. It is difficult to explain the feefing of (lie Israeli for the Jew who remains in Germany. "Political Pigmy" Asked about tlie future of Germany Mr. Freudenfeld said "In Ihe past 15 years Germany has become an industrial giant, but remains a political pigmy. I cartnot see any possibility in Ihe near future of the reunification of Germany." 'Unsaid' Mr. Freudenfeld said many ut'^er things, and there was much he did not say. From what was not said, r had the feeling that the Jew is no more popular in Germany today than he was 21) years ago. 1 Jiked Burg-hard Freudenfeld and agreed with much he had to say. I w a s ' disturbed that I liked him. Such is the power of prejudice. Mr. Freudenfeld is obviously a polished statesman. Perhaps what lie was saying was wha( he felt was the only diplomatic thing he could say to a group of, American Jews. On the other hand, perhaps he was s i n c e r e he certainly appeared to be. 1 find it difficult to evaluate him objectively. To add to my confusion, Mr, Freudenfeld was going to Chicago where iie was to be thd guest of Hannah Arendt. My feeling about Hannah somewhat justifies my suspicions about Mr, Freudenfcld an a German diplomat. From Chicago he was going to New York where he wa$ to be the guest of Commentary^ magazine. My respect for that publication counteracts the negative feelings 1 have about his Chicago hostess. Whatever he is, Burghardt Freudenfeld is an interesting man. In spite of tho doubts wliich remain with me, I must admit he did put a small dent in my armor of prejudice. For every woman who makes a tool out of a man, there is- another woman who makes a m a n out of a fool. .

To be wise is not a requirement for a "wizard" ot the Ku Klux Klan. Robert Shelton, "imperial wizard" of (he KKK, stated In a report out of Tuscaloosa, Ala., that he will ask the House Un-Amerl<;an Activities Committee in Washington to investigate the B'nai B'rith Anti-Defamation League, National Conference of Christian^ and Jews and other such groups. Says Mr. Shelton, "These and many other organizations have been financing, provoking, and agitating the Southerner. There is one "agitated Southerner," to use Mr. Shelton's words, who might be called as a witness. This one says: "I am most grateful to B'nni B'rith and the Anti-Defamation League. They have the gratitude of this nation . . , you have npvet lost faith in your cause, and your cause has given faith to youv nation . . . W h e r e v e r your torches burn, tolerance, decency and charity have been illuminated. Bigots and bias hide whenever you come into -view. But you are much more than anti-prejudice. You are pro-justice and pro-freedom." By the way, Mr. Shelton, the "Agitated Southerner" quoted above is a pretty reputable Eouthcrncr. His name?
