The two YAF officials said that the YAF agreed to join in the service without knowing that the three were "Axis soldiers, much less that they had been captured by American forces on the Western front in World War II." They added that when YAF learned these facts, it officially withdrew from the plans. The YAF is generally considered to be mainly young Republicans to the riglit of the official Young Republican Clubs. Kirwan and LaMothe described their organization as "Pro-capitalist, anttcollectivist organization" of young people which "is completely opposed to fascism in all Torms."

Minneapolis, St. Paul, Denver, Sioux City, Des Moines, Kansas City, St. Louis, Waterloo, L i n c o l n , Iowa City and M a r s h a l ltown joined with Omaha for the camp session. Omaha delegates included in the 150 delegates were Ronnie Wolfson, Richard G r e e n , Jim Fried, Mark Fellman, D a v i d Block,' Marsha Elkon, Cheryl Kraft, Karen Gotsdincr, Stephanie Lincoln and Barb Roseman. Judy Goldberg, Omaha, and John Herman, Minneapolis, were co-chairmen of the camp session which was under the direction of Rabbi Joseph Weisenfaerg, Regional director. Five Rabbis from the region conducted the various study sessions in Hebrew, Hurnash, Shulhan Aruch, Jewish History and Talmud. Workshops were held for D a n c i n g, Dramatics, Arts and Crafts, Choir and various aspects of USY activities.
Prediction A Jewish Historian predicts t h a t "Jewishly the intelligent child in the religious school today will know mere about the development of Jewish History and Judaism that even the medieval R a s h i or Maimonides could have known." That's a pretty tall prediction. Some of us would be quite satisfied if our children could identify Rashi or Maimonides. K. C. Jewish Chronicle

The Misses Marsha Fellman, Debby Gordman and Barbara Kimmel v/ill relate to the group that made the trip possible, their experiences during a seven week study trip to Israel. Speaking at the Hadassah Oneg Shabbat on Saturday, September 18, at 1:30 p.m. at the Fontenelle Hotel, the girls will also show slides of their travels. Preview Comments When questioned about Jewish life they saw in Israel, Marsha, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Morris C. Fellman, said "Judaism in Israel is more than a religion, it is their nationality and their way of life. It was so interesting to find that the Bible we use for religious purposes only is used as a history book in the classrooms of Israel." In a letter to her parents from Israel, Debby, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Gordman wrote:
"This land is KO bountiful that it is hard to believe it is real; and the people are so friendly that we do not feel like slrangerr, here." Debby met relatives of her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Richman, and spent some time with them in Tel Aviv. Barbara, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kimmel commented "We were delighted to find that the Hebrew we learned at Beth El enabled us to converse with Israelis. One of 'he greatest things about this trip" she added "was that we became acquainted with teenagers from almost every country in Europe." Community Invited Interested women of the community are invited to attend the Hadassah Oneg Shabbat and learri more of these teenage reactions to Israel.

HOPE FOR Till: l.OPKFl'I, This letter is in answer (o '•Hopeful for Changes." It seems to me that our Jewish organizations and our synagogues not only recognize the need for educating and informing our adult Jews, but have provided the machinery and the materials to do so. Indeed, a basic tenet of Judaism is that one never 'graduates" from study—it is a lifelong process. If Hopeful attends C o u n c i l study groups, Hadassah study groups, synagogue study groups and lecture series, she will learn that a huge portion of each organization's time and efforts are directed toward strengthening her knowledge and appreciation of things Jewish. T h e r e are. have been, and will continue to be, classes offered in Bible. Hebrew, Yiddish. Synagogue skills. basic beliefs, Israel. Jewish music and literature, etc, etc. "Hoptful" specifically m e nt^ons lectures in the arts. Great! Let her watch the Jewish Press for details, for just such a lecture series has been planned for this October. At times the problem in our Omaha Jewish c o m m u n i t y
seems to be the duplication of effort in Jewish education rather than the absence of effort. In fact, the problem is not our organizations' failure to provide education, but o n l y our Community's failure io support and participate in what is olicred. •"Hopeful's" letter cannot be answered without referral;; to her ulih.ippiness with fund raising efforts. Without the money raised and used it- our area to support synagogue schools, seminaries, camps, medical facilities, homes for the aged, etc.; w h e r e w o u 1 d we now find enough American Jews to continue the: search for the much mourned Vanishing Jew? Come on "Hopeful"—join the organizations whose goals you share. Attend their meetings and support and work for their programs, educational as well as fund raising. With your support and the s u p p o r t of Thinking, Caring Jews like you, all of us can be not only "Hopeful for Changes" but " C e r t a i n of Changes" leading to a m o r e vital, informed and committed Jewry.

In the m e a n lime this country has the h highest per cap jta rate in the — world for movie* attendance. And so long as this1. d e in a n d ton 5 tinues, the 1 in 1 cma owners need C. do nothing to attract audiences b e y o n d announcing the names of the coming attractions. Not Tlusir The average motion picture
house in Israel is a lar cry from the cinema palaces of, say the United Stales. Upholstered seals are the exception. A lobby is only the bare corridor which one pushes through to get to the main a u d i t 0 r i u m. Little thought is given to the comfort of the patrons, the aesthetic appearance of the building, and frequently not even to the quality of the sound emanating from the screen. Censorship
The only aspect of the movie; in Israel which seems to have been given any attention is consideration of the program which may be presented. Every picture shown in the country must pass the approval of a 1 G-man censorship council which, though set up by law, is not a govern-
Capitol Spotlight
EteraciS LS<g The Soviet Embassy here is unhappily anticipating September 1!). Tactics perfected by civil rights de m o u s t r a t ors—the march, the vigil, the mass demonstration, the pickets—will be used here on that date against discrimination and p r e j u d i c e practiced by the Soviet Union. Thousands will assemble to demand that the Soviet Union end its anti-Jewish policies. They will come to Washington in special trains supplied with kosher food to p a r t i c i p a t e in the "Eternal LiKht Vigil" organized by the 21 groups associated with the American Jewish Conference on S o v i e t Jewry. The Soviet Embassy will hear these thousands and other non-Jewish demonstrators sing. "We Shall Overcome." More than 5,000 will gather across Pennsylvania A v e n u e from the White House. The site will be Lafayette Park, where many recent demonstrations for civil rights were held. Soviet diplomats are reportedly apprehensive at rumors that many Negroes and Viet Nam p a c i f i s t demonstrators will identify with the cause of Russian Jewry. There is. talk in liberal circles of spontaneous and unofficial pickets joining the crowd to demond "jair piay for Negroes of USA, peoples of •Viet Nam, and Jews of the USSR." Non-Jewish Participation Why would non-Jews, obsessed by their own special interests, be attracted? The fact is that liberals have been stung by charges that activists for Viet Nam peace and Negro rights are Communistdominated. September 19 provides an opportunity io prove dedication to universal social justice. A non-Jewish c o l l e g e youth, arrested during the recent Capitol Hill anti-war protest, said " a real liberal would fight for Jewish rights in Russia as strongly as he would for Negro rights here or for an end to the Viet Nam war." Another demonstrator, a Negro affiliated with the Congress of Racial Equality saw the Jewish issue as a legitimate opportunity for "extremists" to show they are ready to protest Communist and anti-Jewish policies. Elements accused of leftist learnings have a chance to show the universality and consistency of their liberalism. The vigil will demand that Jews in the Soviet Union be accorded the same rights provided by the Kremlin to other religious and ethnic minorities. Jews in the USSR have been subjected to denial of many cultural and religious facilities permitted other minorities. Demonstrators will stage a
round-the-clock vigil within view of the White House. They will attempt to see President Johnson to ask his help. A call will be made on the State Department. Soviet Embassy But the real impact will he achieved when marchers present the Soviet Embassy with petitions signed in cities and towns throughout the United tSates. It will provide the ultimate embarrassment for Soviet diplomats who have self-righteously gloated over the Negro rights rallies in Washington. Propaganda Suggestions have been made that the U. S. I n f o r m a t i o n Agency televise and broadcast* the demonstration for relay to every country where the United States is maligned for its race problems. This would debunk the Soviet claim of being the champion of the oppressed. Today it is the Russians, not the West Germans, who are denying Jews the basic rights accorded other citizens. The Kremlin is not backward in the realm of propaganda. Russian propagandists have already sought to offset the coming rally by press releases. They deny bias and sound something like ihe Siaic of Mississippi's official description of Negro life there. A recent release, published abroad but not in Russia, said the Soviet Union would now memorialize the v i c t i m s of Nazism buried at Babi Yar of approximately 100,000 victims of Nazi mass-murder buried at Babi Yar, more than 90 percent were Jewish. The Kremlin has persistently avoided mentioning that Jews vtere e s p e c i a l l y singled out for mass-murder by the German invaders. Babi Yar gained notoriety in 1951 when poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko dared to write a historic poem" "No monuments rise over Babi Yar The steep ravine is like a crude grave slab. . . The trees look threatening, look like judges. And everything is one silent cry . . . And I am one silent cry Over the many thousands of the buried . . . No Jewish blood runs among my blood, But I am as bitterly and as heartily liated By every anti-Semite." The belated Soviet gesture to erect a memorial at Babi Yar was a response to world public opinion. It o f f e r s hope that louder outcries will force Moscow to take further, more important steps, to acknowledge the human dignity of Jews.

Showing for adults only was permitted In (he case of another 91 films. Banning of the pictures has been subjected to some criticism by those here who oppose any kind of censorship on principle:. What alarms them is the trend: in 19GU only !) pictures wen: banned. The increase to 24 last year is seen as opening the door to possible control of public thought. . The Council r e p o r t e d that more than one half of the pictures barred, I! to be cx;:ct, were rejected b e c a u s e they glorified crime. Seven were disqualified for showing in Israel, even if cut, because of pornography and stress on sex. (Considering the d a r i n g pictures which do receive the .seal of approval, one can only conjecture that the others wore pretty shocking indeed.) Two pictures were nixed because they seemed pro-Nazi, and still another was banned because it was deemed offensive to a friendly country. Government Influence In t h e o r y the Censorship Council is supposed to be free of any government influence, to ensure absolute independence, but it is an open secret that Israel's Foreign Ministry was responsible for barrinr; of a film which had aroused thu fury of the Greek government. On the other hand, despite very obvious objections of the Foreign Ministry, .1 local theatrical company last year went right ahead and presented Ilochhuth'.i controversial play about Pope Pius, in the face of Vatican displeasure. America Leads American-made films led the m a r k e t last year, with IH3 shown. Next came Italian pictures (GO), followed by French (42) and British Gill. Israel itself produced ten feature pictures last year, one of them the smash success known here as Sallnh Shabbali, and abroad as Sallah. Israelis liked the picture because it tv.cr.kcd the noses cf local fetishes ranging from treeplanting to kibbutzim. News Heels Locally produced news reels have been a bone of contention. At one time movie houses were compelled to show them, as a means of encouraging such production. The producers, on the other hand, found art additional source of income: for a price any industry, institution or governmental public relations department could ensure coveraga of its name, products or events, irrespective of whether the matter was of publiiSSnterest or not. Theatre-goers soon r e v o l t e d against b e i n g made captive audiences for thinly disguised advertising. For all its faults, the Israel cinema is an institution of public life, and the tourist who wants to get close to Mr. Israeli would be well advised to spend at least one evening at tho movies. Warning: all seats are reserved, and sold in advance. There are English subtitles on foreign language pictures. And check to make sure if picture is for those over 10 only!
