Rober Welch, founder and president of the John Birch Society, spoke to 630 responsive and enthusiastic followers last month in Denver, Colorado. • The meeting was opened by Joseph Siegal of C o l o r a d o Springs who lead the audience in the pledge of allegiance. Slegal is the Colorado chairman of the Society of Jewish Americanists, one of the Society's fronts designed to convey the impression of having strong Jewish support. Aiiii-Srmilism • Welch, a retired candy manufacturer, touched on the topic of anti-semitism early in his address. He said that the Communists have hired "dupes" to peddle the information that we're Bnti-semitic. In this way, the Communists cause agitation, divide and conquer, and accomplish their goals, "'i'tie J o h n Birch Society is in no way antisemitic." Birch declared that all of the anti-semitism of the IOth- century and of the Hitler era was caused by the Communists.

In fact, ho attributed every war during the past two centuries to the work of a mysterious, secret group of "Insiders," who control the Communists. He said these "Insiders" have directly or indirectly caused tho French Revolution, revolutions in-Europe, both world wars, the Korean war and the war in Viet Nam. Welch couldn't name any of these "Insiders" but was confident the John Birch Society can make them crumble in a few more y e a r s by exposing thc-rn. "Russia prolonged our . war with Japan by controlling Washington. Japan tried to surrender to the U. S. months before tho explosion of the atom bomb over Hiroshima and Nagasaki." Welch didn't disclose the source of this information. He lore into the "Communist conspiracy" and drew loud applause when he said the present civil rights movement is planned by Communists and utilized by Communists. The Birch boss said, "The Society has seven or eight Negro Americans working in our cause." "We have thousands of 'front' groups in the U. S. These are not deceptive groups because they promote the 'noble purpose of our society.'" Welch received a standing ovation at the beginning and end of his speech, and nftor a question-andanswer period. • • ' • . • » .

New York iZINS) — The (5'jth Annual Convention of the Zionist Organization of America which concluded its four-d;iy sessions last week mirrored the revitalizaiion of 'he organization and dramatically refuted the prophecies of gloom about its future. Unanimously acknowledged as one of the most successful conventions held by the ZOA in many years, the deliberations were attended by an unusually large number of delegates who came in lull force '. from all parts of the country, Kocliefellcr Voices Concern Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller of Nevv York State, addressing the opening session of the Cenvcnticn voiced his cor.corr. "that after 18 years of Israel's . existence her security is still threatened and the reality of her existence arid permanence are not yet fully accepted." Governor Rockclcller. further emphasized that "peace in the Middle East is inescapably interlinked with world peace' and that "Israel is a bastion of freedom and democracy and a symbol of a better world to come for all mankind." Official States IT. S. Policy In Mid-East While the crucial debates at the United Nations Security Council were in session, Harrison M. Symmes. Director of Israel and Arab-Israel Affairs in the U. S.estate Department assured the ZOA Piibiic Affairs 1 Session . that "promoting ArabIsrael peace" was one of the chief objectives of U.S. policy in the Middle East, He stressed, however, th.it the United States must try to have "relations — and, if possible, good and friendly relations— with all the states in the area.'' The United States, Mr. Synmies emphasized was interested in increasing stability jn this tense. sensitive region, and it was to prevent an imbalance of arms that might lead to further instability that the U.

Harman Has Meeting With II. S. Officials Washington fJTAt—Israel Ambassador Avraham Harman met this week with Acting Secretary of-State Nicholas de B. Kat«enbach for what was described as a "courtesy call." It was the first official meeting of the Israeli envoy 'with..the newly-appointed "Number Two" man in the State Department. Mr. Katzenbach formerly served as U, S. Attorney General. Mr. Harmairalso met with Anthony Solomon/Assistant Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, to discuss current economic problems in the Near East, He also paid a courtesy call on Under-Secretary of State Eugene Rostow, the State Department's new "Number T h r e e" man.

Zionism and American Jewish Youth The Friday night Oneg Shahb;it was especially devoted to a symposium discussing the meaning of Zionism to the y o u n g American Jew. The discussants were: Carrni M. Sloniovitz of Detroit, managing editor of "The Jewish News,'' Ii;ibbi Barry Friedman of Cleveland, Leon May of Nashville and Mrs. Evelyn Musher of New York. Mr. Sloniovitz charged that the major Jewish organizations had failed to deal satisfactorily with the problem of instilling the younger generation with a sense of tradition and responsibility to the Jewish peopie. He said, however, that there were certain signs of "good to offset the bad," and quoted the situation on the Ann Arbor campus as an example. The same note was sounded by the other discussants.

JEWISH LEADERSHIP 1 have long admired liie many contributions in :iie area of civic service made by Jewish members of our community. Jewish leadership has played an important part in Omaha's growth.

By Gita Wakschlag In recent weeks, several articles pertaining to the Nazi Era in h i s t o r y have appeared throughout various periodicals r.nd newspapers. From most of . these articles, the reader derives the concept that the young- . er generation today does not identify itself sufficiently with this particular tragic period. As a result, this question srises: '".Should \\v, as the Jewish adults of the future, Keep Ihc awareness of this particular tragic segment of history alive, by passing our bitterness from cne generation to the next, or should we "forgive and forget" .—gradually, but fully and let our embittered spirits die with Hie past generation'."' s

Bob Ilandlenian, Freshman: "No. 1 don't think we should fce as bitter as in the past, because what's dun'-* is done. Most of the German people who killed the Jewish people are dead or are now dying." David Kaplan, Sophomore: "We can neither pass on bitterness nor forget the depths of depravity to which man can tink. We can only work against recurrence." *

Ellene Halprin, Junior: "I believe that these are issues vitally important to my generation. These problems pertain to the present, and must be dealt with in the present. Memcries of injustices make a people live in the past. What is life but a constant denial of the past? What is over is over, and as far us'.I'm Cuiifceirieu, the problem of equality of all nien is

that we were strong enough to survive it? Why should we, as young Jews, obsess ourselves with a hatred of things we cannot change? We cannot forgive the Germans totally, perhaps we can only look behind us with regret, and to the future with tomorrow's eyes." Larry Kay, Sophomore: "Yes, these faults in our history .should be passed on to our youth so that they can learn from the mistakes which the elders created." a

Larry Kraft, Senior: "This massacre of a minority should be remembered and noted by the future generations. We must, however, remember that this tragedy was in the past, and therefore, we should not remain completely bitter for something which occurred 25 years prior. I am not saying.that1 we should forgive fully, but rather, to accept the massacre as a fact wliich can not be changed, and to realize the circumstances under which it happened." * * * liob Glimmers, Sophomore: "The Nazi Era is a portion of Jewish history which cannot be forgotten. We should remember it has happened, but the incident should not leave a grudge against.the German people who did not have anything to do with the mass murder. Hopefully, the people who took a major part in this incident have been punished sufficiently." Mark Hoffman, Junior: "We should not forget the tragedy of1 the Nazi holocaust. It should be remembered so that a similar tragedy will never occur. However, passing bitterness from one generation to another will never benefit anyone, We should forgive, but under no circumstances, should we forget what may happen if-we became unaware."

General orders No. 3()!l(5, Headquarters, U.S. Army, Viet Nam, described the reasons for the award of the Second Oak Leaf Cluster to Garten's Silver Star. The citation described how Garten "dispatched the battalion's onti-tank platoon to clear a section of the road north of Tuy Hoa. One vehicle of this platoon struck a mine, destroying the vehicle and injuring two men seriously." Garten, "knowing the road to be mined, moved forward with the security element of a recovery crew to personally survey the area and make an estimate of the situation. At a point two kilometers .short of the point where the first vehicle .struck the mine, Colonel Garten's vehicle hit another non-metallic mine that had been cleverly planted in a cut in the road. The blast war, of such magnitude that the vehicle was hurled into the air, ripping it virtually in half, and injuring all occupants." Garten "suffered severe injuries on both legs, and a concussion that left him in a coma. Garten had insisted in moving to a dangerous vantage point with the full knowledge that he could have remained behind without fear of censure. Garten's thought prior to becoming unconscious was for the welfare of the other wounded. His unimpeachable valor against a hostile force was in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflects great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United State's Army."

Reflecting as a Jew and as a professional soldier, the Colonel said it was fact that should be realized by now that Jews, no more and no less than other Americans, are struggling and dying in the Delta, highlands, jungles, and swamps of Viet Nam. They can be found in Garten's own 101st Airborne Division—or the First Infantry, the First Air Cavalry, and other combat units. Capt. Samuel Sobel, U.S. Navy Chaplain, knows where some other Jews can be located. They are interred in fresh graves at Arlington National Cemetery. Rabbi Sobel has . recited the Jewish memorial service over the remains of a number of young Marines who met death in Viet Nam. Both Garten and the Chaplain are aware that Jews are a nor-, inal part of the fabric of-the' American military force that is fighting, as ordered, by the administration and chain of command, They have their own private feelings but leave to civilians, the political debate over the wisdom of the war and America's controversial and increasing escalation.

Bv RABBI SAMUEL J. FOX QUESTION: Is (he "Ynhrzrlt" observed on the anniversary of the death or the anniversary of the date of burial? ANSWER: The' "Yahrzeit" is observed annually on the Jewish date of the death of one's beloved. It is this date which is marked with special significance to the fate of the deceased in the hereafter as well as the fate of their heirs on earth. Some authorities say that the date of the death brings forth another day of judgment for the deceased who, if their own virtues or the virtues of their heirs-war. rant it, are elevated to a higher plateau in the heavenly abode. Others add that their heirs themselves are in a condition ol judgment on that day sinre the death of one's beloved is an unfortunate incident in the life of their heir. Facing the same date again on the calendar brings up the question as to whether or not either our own record or that of the deceased has imdrgonc improvement since the original tragedy.' There are some authorities who say that in a case where the date .of burial was delayed three or four days after the death, the first Yahrzeit is observed on the' date of the burial. This is done because the first 12 months are months of bereavement for the children of the deceased, being in themselves a long period of judgment for both the deceased and his children. In a case where the burial had been delayed three or four days after the death, observing the Yahrzeit on the dale of the death would place the Yahrzeit within the 12-month period of bereavement, thus making it rather insignificant, since nothing is added to the importance of the day as the children are still in a period of mourning. Nevertheless, there are other authorities who maintain that even on the first anniversary of the death, the Yahrzeit is observed on the date of death in spite of the fact that the burial was delayed.

Speaker, in \-icu' of rcliiible rcporU that Communist China is now supplym;:'niuiiitiuns of war lo the so-culloil Aral) "Palpstine Liberation Army", I think the lime IIHK come for Hie United .Slates to provide amis on a Kraut basis—lo JsrafJ, the-new target of Jlcd China's fanaticism." HON. SEYMOUR HALPERH, IN CONGRESS SEPTEMBER 29. 1SS6: "Mr. Speaker. '>n 'Aicsday of this week I t/Kilt the floor to com-, menl upon some Jute and very disturbing developments in the Middle Kast. "1 received today from my good.friend and eolleacue., the gentJejnan from Nebraska (Mil. CUNNINGHAM) a very cogent and jx.'i'ceplivc expression of support for the projio.miJ to strengthen Israel's defenses. Congressman Cunningham has always stood for effective U.S. measures to help Israel deter aggression. I think his words are enlightening and encouraging, and s h o u l d he brought to tin* attention of the House, His letter to me, dated September 2'J, is as follows:"
"Dear Sy: In reading the C/inKil<>B«>«n8l Record of September 27th, I noticed your views favorable to-Hie arming of Israel by the United States as a deterrent to aggression in the Near liast. "You indicated alarm at reports that Communist China is now providing munitions of war lo the so-called Arab "Palestine Liberation Army". Furthermore, you revealed the possibility that the fomenting of an Arab-Israeli conflict might be a prime objective of Peking so as to divert the United States from its efforts in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. "In this letter. I would like (o express to you my. wholehearted agreement with your observations and my endorsement of your call upon the United Stales Government to support Israel in its struggle for survival. ''As you recall, I joined with you ond 73 other Congressmen in January of this year in a letter to tiie Secretary of State, the Honorable Dean Husk. In that communication we called upon our government to 'take effective measures \a strengthen Israel's defenses i,n order to deter those who menace her security'. "In the light of these new developments, however, it is .now even. more urgent that the United Slates reexamine her commitment 1o Israel, the sole bastion of real Democracy in a'troubled Near Kast. I3y supporting Israel, the United Stales strikes a blow for freedom before it is too late, i.e., before a potential conflict has developed into outright armed, hostilities. A strong Israel will 'serve as a delern.'nt to those aggressore who would challenge her (sovereignly. "Again, let me express my endorsement of your views on this matter and your ever courageous stand in p r c s e r v i n g and Mr-4 ngthenijig the nation of. Israel. "With kindest personal regards I •'urt. Sincerely your-i,

EAKLY BIKtt TOURNKY Chaim V.'cizmann AZA defeated a name AZA 1 crew 30-48. The Weizrnann team put on a well-rounded offensive attack, with four men hitting in the double figures. Maynard Belzer took the scoring honors with 2) points. Tom Kirshenbauin tallied 11 points and Bind Grossman and Todd Greenstone each hit the basket for 10 tallies. The Weizmnnn quintet held a 27-24 half-time lend, and until the final minutes of the game the AZA 1 crew threatened that lead. Pat Chiquete and Jeif Lewis combined for 35 of their team's points. Free throws made by the WeiziKiinn team won the game. The winners hit for 10 out of 10 at the charity line for an amazing accuracy of 62.5 per cent. The Weizmann win in the semifinals set the stn;;e for the championship game against the Rayim sophomores. The young Itayirn team slatted out tike a team that couldn't be beat. Harvey Josin was hitting from the outside and Bruce Muskin was doing a magnificent job of ball handling and was floor general for his young team. Combined, with the rebounding of Steve Nogg, this gave the Rayim sophomores a 20-11 half-time lead. Chaim Weizmann came storming back in the second half with the sharp shooting of Maynard Eelzer and Tom Kirshenbaum to tie and finally go ahead of the opponents. With 5 minutes remaining in the game, Nogg fouled out giving Chaim Weizmann complete control of the boards. Belzer was high scorer for the champions with 12 points. First Game AZA 1 tf>. ft. pis.
