Rabbi Tells Hostile Negroes Perils of 'Black Separatism" Atlanta (JTA)—Rabbi Jacob Rothschild of Atlanta's Temple Israel warned a frequently hostile Negro Jaudience here this week that violent revolution and black separatism c o u l d not work and that he resented attempts 'to bar me from the battle to achieve human rights." He said "I do not like being told that this is not my battle." Rabbi Rothschild, a member of the Atlanta Community Relation Board, told the audience at the Hungry Club Forum that "as a Jew and as an American citizen, I am not .going to forget my religious commitment in the face of black separatism, no more that I, as a Jew, did in the face of white Eegregationism."

Where Were the Arab Beauties? LONDON (JTA>-Most of the Arab countries failed to enter contestants in the Miss World beauty contest held here last week because they were certain that the Israeli entry, Miri Zamir, would win and this would have been "a major national catastrophe" for the A r a b s had they competed, the L o n d o n newspaper "People" reported. Miss Israel came out third in _ the event and eight Arab diplomats who had each bet $120 on her to win lost their m o n e y , "People" reported. According to the paper, the Arabs considered Miss Israel the .prettiest entry and most polished of the- contestants and their experts were sure she would win or emerge one of the runnersup. The official reason1 for the absence of an Arab entry was that Island forbids girls -to display themselves before strange men.

Catholic Pamphlets Hit Anti-Semitism _.

A unique series of pamphlets aimed at Catholic parishioners across the country and designed to attack "the evil of anti-SemitI s m a s V thought as well as an >act" was distributed last week to every parish and pajgflirial. school in the O ffl a h a Archdiocese. . "The pamphlets called The Spirituar Heritage Series repreaent an earnest and dramatic attempt to implement the Vatican Declaration on Non-Christian Religions as it applies to Jews," said Harold Adllr, Regional ADL Director, in making the announcement of the distribution of the pamphlets. Illustrated with color reproductions of religious and other art work, the pamphlets discuss tbe spiritual bonds between Jews and Christians;' the deicide charge; the persecution of Jews by "the ancient church" through the middle ages and into modern times; condemn anti-Semitism as "many times a sin" and urge Catholics to e n g a g e In "brotherly diaglogue" with Jews In order "to learn about one another as human beings."'

that merchants in the ghettoes were exploiting Negroes and charged also that Jews became involved in Negro rights movements for "selfish reasons" and perhaps to distract anti-Semitism. The rabbi told such hecklers that they did the Jew an injustice and that the answer to the Negro's problems was not to destroy society but to .create programs to bring them selfreliance and self-respect.

Brussels (JTA)—the NATO Ministerial Council concluded its semi-annual meeting here with a warning to the Soviet Union that any intervention "directly or indirectly affecting the situation in Europe or in the Mediterranean would create an international crisis with grave consequences." "" The warning was contained in the final communique issued by the 15-member North Atlantic Treaty Organization which for the previous three days had been considering -the threat to world peace posed by Soviet intervention in> Czechoslovakia and the build-up of Soviet naval strength and political influence in the Eastern Mediterranean1.No Specifics The communique was deliberately vague in that it mentioned no specific countries that were threatened by Soviet activity in the Mediterranean area. It said,

however, "Determined to safeguard the freedom and independence of their countries, they (the. NATO powers) could not reniain .indifferent to any development w h i c h endangers their security:" The communiqua noted as well.that "the expansion of Soviet activity in the Mediterranean, including the presence ol Soviet naval units, requires vigilance to.safeguard allied security." : The NATO d e l i b e r a t i o n s , though conducted mainly behind closed doors, obviously took a very grave view of the growth of Soviet naval strength in the Mediterranean for the first time in history. Reports by military and strategic experts noted that . the Soviet fleet was making use "of the Egyptian ports of Alex' ' and.

Informed sources pointed out that most delegates believe it is not NATOb' task to become involved in the Arab-Israel conflict and that the best way to counteract Soviet penetration is to achieve an Arab-Israeli peace. It was pointed out when the NATO sessions started that Is.rael is Dot a member of the alliance and is not even one of the fringe nations which NATO would consider itself obliged to defend in case of aggression.

Efforts Renewed to End -Executive Suite" Bias By MILTON FRIEDMAN The Nixon Administration is expected to press for action against' "executive suite" discrimination against Jews in banking, insurance, public utiit i e s , railroads and steel. A1-, though Jews constitute eight perl cent of U.S. college graduates, only one-half of! one per cent of 1 executives in major American in-1 dustries are Jew-1 ish. A n t i - Jewish Friedman discrimination in recent years received little emphasis even from major Jewish organizations. The main program emphasis was upon the bias handicapping N e g r o e s . Black power advocates bave now told Jewish l i b e r a l s that "whltey" is no longer wanted in the struggle for Negro emancipation. The Jew, like the nonJewish white, is advised to "get off onr back," A new look is therefore being taken at discrimination affecting Jews. The climate is favorable. President-elect Richard M. Nixon, as Vice-President, served as working chairman of -the President's Commission on Government Contracts. The .committee's powers were limited but Mr. Nixon took his job very seriously. Under his chairmanship, the committee became the ' most important body of its kind up to that time. Government Action David A. Sawyer, associate director of the Employment Policy Program of the U.S. t r e a s u r y . Department,' recently raised some provocative — and controversial points. His address before the National Joint Advisory Committee on the Ex-

ecutive Suite, sponsored by the American Jewish Committee and the Jewish Occupational Council, caused repercussions and results. Sawyer said he found the AJC publication, "The-Case of the Missing Executive;* helpful but was "somewhat surprised"by the description of the programs of the Federal Government "in the fight against discrimination in the executive suite." He said it was "really news to me." The official disclosed (hat as a staff man who had urged and long awaited at least "a pilot program covering religion" he was disappointed by Government inaction. Sawyer said "the ' Government regrettably/Jias until recently done very little and the (AJC) description is an undeserved credit, a somewhat exaggerated rainbow of hope." Sawyer said he was reminded "that in 1963 the ADL released its study of Jewish bias in the automobile industry and still cannot understand why there was no pressure on the then Vice President Johnson or the President's Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity to investigate their allegations and seek assurance o£ corrective • action by the industry." "I am reminded of the AJC study of December, 1963," and the publicity of January, 1964, concerning exclusion and bias against Jews in the utilities," said Sawyer. "Again, there was no direct appeal for the existing Government machinery to • investigate." Official Directive ,f Secretary of Labor Willard Wirtz issued a memorandum in " N o v e m b e r , 1967, reminding heads of all Government agencies that the anti-bias provisions of Executive Order 11246 applied to anti-Semitism as well"

as anti-Negro discrimination. But, said Sawyer, "most agencies and the Office of Federal Contract Compliance, hiie'te- so overwhelmed with the problems of race, that except for the efforts by the Social Security Administration and Treasury Department, this memorandum was lost in the pile of low priority." "" Early this year the Defense Department came out for the rights of- Jews in work done by private industry on defense contracts. Alfred Fit't,. Assistant Secretary of Defense, wrote a special article in the Defense Industry " Bulletin. "But despite Mr. Fitt's clearly written story about the extention of equal opportunity to religion . . . t h e field offices were not directed to implement. Secretary Wirtz's directive or his intent," said Sawyer. The Future Within the next two years, the U.S. Treasury will conduct conferences and workshops with banks throughout the country. The Department this fall specifically called for recruitment of Jews for executive bank jobs, A proposal.now awaiting approval by the U,S. Bureau of the Budget envisages a new report ing system to elicit data on the religious affiliations of persons in executive suite'positions. Sawyer believes that Jewish groups can help by not only spurring efforts against bias but also by informing Jews that jobs are opening in the corporate structure. An assumption exists that some restrictions exist in corporations that are slowly lifting barriers. ' The question of further breakthrough will be answered during the Nixon Administration, but only if Jewish groups assign a higher priority to specifically Jewish problems. .

Teen Thoughts

TheNevir York School Dispute By Marty Shukcrt Sophomore, Yale University I am writing in response to a ~—JTA- cartoon that appeared in the Jewish Press of November 8.1 tbink that it reflects at best a misrepresentation of the Ocean Hill-Brownsville controversy and at worst a demagogic attempt to prejudice -people against the leading answer to this country's _edu_e_ational crisis by invoking the magic bogey" of anti-Semi' tism. ' (Editor's note: The cartoon titled — Ocean Hill-Brownsville bore the h e a d l i n e "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn." The illustrated tree ' showed a nest which was labeled ' "Anti-Semitism.") Background I want to try to convey the facts of the dispute as I understand them. About two years ago, the Ford Foundation presented a grant to —the-New-York-Board of Education providing for the creation of a demonstration school gov_ erning b o a r d in Ocean HillBrownsville, a ghetto area in Brooklyn. The governing board was elected by the parents in the demonstration, district and was subject to the supervision of the Board of Education. Originally, the new district employed teachers who were members of the United Federation of Teachers (UFT), which opposed school decentralization. It was made clear to these teachers that they might be happier at another school and most of them left. They were replaced by a rather unorthodox group of new, non-union teachers. The new teachers are 60 per cent —-Jewish. Howflver, fionAe_plithg_

nate incidents of intimidation at J u n i o r High School 271 and finally about 10 teachers .were fired without reason. These acts by the Governing Board are urijustifiable; the teachers should have been granted due process. It was over this issue that the teacher's strike originated. At first, the teachers had a good case. However, the "good case" rapidly degenerated i n t o an attempted power grab by Albert Shankcr, head of the UFT, as he tried to use the strike to coerce Mayor L i n d s a y to repudiate community control of schools. The Ocean Hill-Brownsville Governing Board has made a number of concessions since the strike began. First, it was-willing to take back the teachers in a research capacity and to place them in p o s i t i o n s t e a c h i n g different^ classes. This did not pp l e a s j F Shanker. Then, the Governing Board offered to take back the fired teachers-in their previous capacities. This should have ended the strike. However, Shanker now demanded that the decen-

The charges of anti-Semitism" certainly seem to be trumped up and designed to mobilize the liberal J e w i s h community of. New York (and perhaps the rest of the nation) against community control of schools and perhaps even blacl? self-determina-' tion. • The greatest t r a g e d y that could - come out of the Ocean Hill-Brownsville debacle is, the end- of school decentralization and the association of community control with anti-Semitism. In Ocean Hill-Brownsville, as well as in New York's two other demonstration districts, parents for the first time rrc taking an active part hi the processes of the first time, schools are being

Sidelines By Mickey Gerelick I don't often comment about meetings of women's groups, because I don't attend many of these meetings anymore. I did, however, attend the meeting of the National Council of Jewish Women this week. To comment on the subject matter of the program would take an entire column, which I may do in the future. For this week however, just a few sideline observations. ; I arrived at Ihemeeting a bit late and" was'startled to see so many women. There were well over 100, and when you haven't been to a women's club meeting for so long, the sight of so much female power is rather overwhelming. Generation Gap A quick look around the room was the second shocker. There were so many unfamiliar faces. A closer look told why/Many of the . women attending were young women—like very young —like under 30 or even 25. For 60 many years the "older" worni n had b e e n the - unfamiliarfaces for me at these meetings. Suddenly I realized that in the eyes of these very young women, people like me and my peers were the "older" women. It was a bit unnerving. You think you can go to a _ meeting and fit right back in where you used to be, and find you've moved up a whole generation. The title of the p r o g r a m , "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner hi West Omaha" attracted, me to the meeting in the first place. Moderated by D e n n i s Jackson, youth counselor for Operation Bridge, a panel of high school seniors discussed

er" women who were parents of teenagers. It did c o n c e r n • them. Then something Nancy Kaplan said as a member of tho panel, turned the whole thing around. Her c o m m e n t was something to the effect that Judaism was too important to her, too much a part of her life, for her ever to consider intermarriage where this, f e e l i n g would not be shared, For that reason, she said, she did not think she would inter-date dur« ii-.g the c o l l e g e years .when choosing a marriage partner was so m u c h a part of the game.
