New Trends Shown in Jewish Life on Washington . . . The American Jewish community is "unwisely overlooking" new trends that are giving Jewish life on campus "its own continuity as a rooted community."

Jewish Chaplain Praises Program M@fe The NBC Television color broadcast of Peter Weiss' "The Investigation" will be shown on KMTV tonight from 8:30 to 10 p.m. and will be repeated Sunday, April 16 from 2:.'1O lo -i p.m. "'The Investigation" recently finished its run on Broadway and is still being shown in several countries aboard. Not a play in the real sense of the word, "The Investigation" is a scaring recital of the actual testimony of witnesses and defendants'tried for their acts in the Auschwitz concentration camp.
Captain Alan Greenspan, n 25vearold Jewish chaplain just back from a year in Viet Nam, can't understand home-front talk about "alienated youth." In an interview at Ye.shiva University, he urged adults to consider two seemingly contradictory points—first, that "our boys in Viet Nam are behaving magnificently under pressure and under fire;" and secondly, that they are members of the same "mod" generation frequently characterized as irresponsible, immature and amoral. 'It seems clear to me,'' he said, "that the situation makes
the man—in this generation as in any other. When they are f:iced with a real rather than theoretical .situation they res|K)iid like the men they are.'1 Morale Describing morale as "excellent," Captain Greenspan said "our soldiers believe they are in Viet Nam for good reasons, and those who come to chaplains for guidance usually are depressed by loneliness and family problems, not by political or moral objections to the war fis such."
The President of a major national Jewish women's organization warned Jewish parents that unless they fight harder for racial justice and economic opportunity, their children may be lost to Jewish life. Mrs. Joseph Willen of New York, president of the National Council of Jewish Women, in her keynote address to the opening session of its five-day biennial convention in Atlanta, declared: "When we teach our children Jewish ethics and then they see us helping to make it hard for a Negro to move in down the Washington — Senator Jacob ligious schools are supported street, they learn not to respect K.

Israeli Veteran Saves Life of New York Boy

Binghamton. N. Y. UTA) — Thanks to the heroism of an Israel army veteran, a nine-yearold boy is recovering now at Wilson Hospital, here, following his immersion in lite icy waters oi tfie Susquehunnu River. His rescuer. Yitzhak Iladari, HO. The boy, Charles E. Wasley, fell in the water while fishing, when the ice along the bank on which he was standing broke beneath his feet. Mr. Iladari was walking home with Rabbi J. Bernard Merzel. spiritual leader of Temple Beth David, when the accident occurred. They were apprised of the boy's danger by the shouting of an onlooker. Mr. Hadnri scaled a five-foothigh roncri'te wnll and dronned to the river bank, waded waistdeep into the water and pulled the boy to safety just as the rushing stream was sweeping him away. Two policemen who then arrived on the scene had to be boosted bodily over the wall, a fact that led Mr. Hadari to comment: "They didn't have Israeli Army training." As he brought the boy to shore, Mr. Iladari said the child, blue from the cold, told him. "Thank you, sir, I love you," and lost consciousness.

VI Major Washington (JTA)--Tlie importance of Jewish involvement in the struggle to end the Viet Nam war was stressed this week by Rabbi Arthur J. Lelyveld, president of the American Jewish Congress, in an addre.sa before his organization's national women's division convention. Serving notice that the American Jewish Congress regarded Viet Nam as a "Jewish issue," Rabbi Lelyveld said: "We i(re proud to be the cutting edge of every forward movement of Belf-respecting Jews who take both their identity within the Jewish People and their cove-
nant role seriously. This is why we of the American Jewish Congress have spoken out on Vilt Nam—because we are loyal Americans and because we are faithful Jews." The Jewish Congress leader said that "everything in our tradition prompts us to believe that there are times when silence is immoral. Thou shalt not stand idly by the blood of thy neighbor is a primary demand of Jewish ethics recorded in the Book of Leviticus." An appeal for peace in Viet Nam also highlighted a convention address by Sen. Ernest Gmening, Alaska Democrat. .

Capitol Spotlight
The Sabbath Ss Here Forever If Israel launches a space cap-sool, as we Americans love to call it. it will go by the name "levonok-h" which menus "little moon." While space orbits are complex processes, the Israeli orbits will be more complex than most. "Der Tog," one of the morning papers published in Yiddish in Israel, recently refjorted the rabbinical decisions regarding the Orthodox astronaut. The American rabbinate cent a series of questions to Riibbi David Clit-loiich of Jerusalem asking for complete instructions, just in case' the National Aeronautical and Space Administration suits up a-Jew in the near future. From the horse's mouth came the word: the Orthodox astronaut must observe the Sabbath twice daily. The reasoning behind this is that the space ship or "little moon1' revolves around the earth once every one and one-half hours. Crew and passengers experience a sunrise and a sunset every revolution. Each sunrise and sunset must be considered a separate day. What else? Therefore: every sixth and seventh revolution is the Sabbath and any mathematician can count lln-nr will be two Sabbaths every 24-hours. Observant Astronauts Sunrises and sunsets will keep the astronauts busy. But they will get a break with the moon because its motion will appear the same to the folks in
the capsule as it docs to the folks on earth. While observant astronauts will have to exercise the same piety with the moon's phases, it will take no more time from their maneuvering than it would on earth. They must, of course, bless the new moon. Kabbi Chclouche concluded also that the astronauts must wear the four-cornered Tzitzcth whenever the space ship is in natural light. Nor can the astronaut put aside his daily prayer.- to foo! with the retro-rockets. He must recite them once every 24 hour period. Whenever he reposes for sleep, he must also recite the Shema whether it is light or dark outside. And the astronaut should wear his philacteries only if it is light when he recites his morning prayers. The American Rabbi Jakubovitz concluded upon reading these requirements remarked, "These questions require further discussion before definitive rulings ore made. Meanwhile I would advise every Jew venturing into space to repeat the Shema until his safe return to earth." Some of the rabbis may not take this,information with high seriousness. They may complain they have enough trouble finding the observant in one of the temples on earth, let alone worry about the observant zipping through space. However, it is always wise to provide for all contingencies.
Sidney Shapiro, a studen'. at the University of Pennsylvania nl Philadelphia, will join the staff of the Esther K. Newman Camp as one of 20 general counselors. Mr. Shapiro possesses special musical skills and has worked as n professional radio announcer nnd disk jockey. His experience includes working with y o u t h groups as well os previous camp • counseling. Mr. Shapiro brings to the camp special skills in directing group games as well as dramatic activities. A s t a l l of more than 30 counselors and specialists will supervise the 100 campers in each camp session.
At Kiddy Kamp, preschoolers will participate in many physical and recreational activities and find many new adventures working, playing and learning With children of the same age. Our primary and all-important objective is the health and safety of our youngsters. Campers nre supervised by our camp staff upon arrival at their pickup points until the child is safely back in the arms of t h e i r '.parents at tlie end of the mornjng. Every counselor is assigned a pickup point where he is to see that each child is seated safely and comfortably on tho bus—during the bus ride to the camp grounds. Songs are sung, woru games nre played and most important your child is carefully supervised, Once at the camp-site, campers arc d i v i d e d according (o ago nnd placed in small groups with a c o u n s e l o r days with bis group all morning going to each activity with them.

Ily MII.TON KKIKDMAN Will the Soviet Union heed the appeal of world Jewry to "Let my people go?" 1'remier Alexei Kosygin and other Soviet leaders have indicated that, the Kremlin is considering the emigration of a limited number of Jews. Massive protests against Soviet mistreatment of Jews came at a time when Moscow was seeking to expand economic links with the W e s t and b r i n g an 1111p r o v c m e n t in American - Soviet relations. The Kremlin is increasingly concerned over the growing power M F r i c t i i n a n of W e s t Germany. Russians dread the acquisition by Bonn of nuclear weapons. Russia is simultaneously faced wilh the fanatical hostility of Communist China. A tendency therefore emerged to improve relation;: with the West —at least on peripheral issues. Moscow has noted President Johnson's call for mutual restraint in development of new anti-missile systems, the American Soviet treaty to expand consular relations, and the broadening of trade relations. Soviet revolutionary fervor is giving way to pursuit of a higher living standard. Something of a new "revolution'' is occurring as Russians begin making payments on Fiat cars to be massproduced in Russia for individuals. Public Opinion But world public opinion remains focused on a number of " antagonizing aspects of Soviet policy. The most drastic and complicated, of course, is the continued shipment of Soviet arms to North Viet Nam. This is a matter of basic Kremlin policy in support of a friendly Communist regime. Other points are less basic and more ilexible. One such issue is the denial to Jews of the religious and cultural rights accorded other Soviet minorities. The Soviet Embassy obviously noticed that Jewish groups testified on behalf of the consular treaty when the matter was before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. However, the Embassy was also aware of the unrelenting criticism by JtAva and non-Jews, Communists and anti-Communists, of Russia's anti-Jewish r e s t r i ctions. Soviet sensitivity was apparent in the extensive publicity given newly-published books on Nazi atrocities against Russian Jews. The heartrending "Babi Yar" is an example.
Moscow is extremely disturbed by charges of anti-Jewish cultural genocide. This is because Soviet policymakers know of the influence of Jewish intellectuals in the Western press, television, information media of all kinds, and in the academic realm. The Kremlin has not changed its dogmatic anti-religious stand, bul it is more sensitive to the public relations image marred by indications of prejudice anil antiSemitism. Some observers contend that Moscow would have permitted larger scale emigration of Jews were the Kremlin not sensitive to Arab pressures. Soviet strategic considerations in the Arab world are obvious. Hundreds of millions in military assistance and other forms of aid have been sent to Syria and Egypt. The aim is subversion of the Arab world, overthrow of the pro-Western oil monarchies, and creation of Middle Eastern regimes friendly to Russia. U. S. Attitudes The White House and State Department have declined to actively intercede on behalf of Soviet Jewry. The reason is that such intercession would
worsen the plight of Jews by vexing Russia through intervention on a domestic issue. A state Department official said that an official American demarche would get the same response in Moscow as a U.S. Government would accord to a Soviet protest on anti-Negro tendencies in Alabama. Congress considered various pi oposed resolutions deploring Soviet antiJewish policies. No final action resulted because of the attitude of the Executive Department. Nevertheless, Moscow is now more sensitive to the situation. The improved American-Soviet relations brought a climate where subtle pressures may get limited results. Russian Jews are still singled out for discrimination in a number of ways, but the trend is encouraging. This Passover will not bring n new Moses and a mass exodus. It may produce more Jewish books and more matzoh. It may allow a few hundred more Jews to depart for reunion with families from which they were separated for many years. Passover in Moscow may provide a glimmer-of hope for the future.

In cooperation with the Nebraska Diabetes A s s o c intion, the Esther K. Newman Camp will conduct a speckil two week program for diabetic children early in June. This is tin: second s e a s o n for this special camping program at the Omaha Jewish •••Federation r e s i d e n t camp. The program for the 100 dktbetic children will provide an exceptional camping experience while educating the diabetic child on how to cope with his condition. In addition to the r e g u l a r counseling staff, two physicians, . two registered nurses, a laboratory technician, an American Dietetic Association certified Dietician and dietetic assistants are retained to supervise the medical aspect: of the . camp routine. Typical Day Campers rise and check themselves each morning with special . "Clintfsts." They then go to the Lodge for insulin shots. Each child is taught to administer his own shot under professional medical s u p e r v i sion. Breakfast is served c a f eteria style to allow immediate eating after receiving insulin. Regular camp activities follow, with a mid-morning snack. Counselors supervise w h i l e campers check themselves hefore lunch. Some children receive additional insulin at this time. Lunch is served by seven different calorie groups, ranging from 1.BO0 to 4,000, The calories for each child is determined by his activities, the doc-
tors and diet supervisors. Each child is checked into each meal to assure that the prescribed caloric amount is taken. The dietician explains the foods at thi.' int-al, as well as how many .servings of each are to be taken and what exchanges are possible. A lecture by a physician is Riven at each noon meal on some aspect ol juvenile diabetes. A question and answer session follows. The afternoon program includes rest period, activities, snacks and another personal clintesl check before s u p p e r . Supper follows the same procedure as the noon meal. An evening program followed by a snack and another personal lab check precedes bedtime. The medical team then analyzes each child's medical record up to that point and makes adjustments for the following day. Children are checked regularly throughout the night. All children are a w a k e n e d fully twice each night to guarantee that they are not undergoing insulin reactions. Program Lauded An evaluation of the diabetic camping p r o g r a m last year brought words of praise from parents and physicians. Parents of diabetic children may call the camp office, 3J2-I3O6 for further information about the program. This is the only camp for diabetic children in a three state nrcn and registration is limited to insure proper control and supervision.
