Golda Meir Takes Off ice As 4th Premier of Israel •' JERUSALEM (JTA)—The Knesset gave an -overwhelming vote of confidence this week to the coalition government of Mrs. Golda Meir, •who becomes Israel's fourth Premier. The vote - was taken following an hour-long speech by the 70-year-old former Milwaukee school teacher, in which she served notice that Israel would never accept a solution to the Middle East conflict imposed by the Big Powers. Mrs. Meir's coalition cabinet is the same as .the one put together 22 months ago by her predecessor, the late Prime Minister Levi Eshkol, on the eve of the Six-Day War. It consists "Of her own Israel Labor Party, now in political alignment with Mapam, the left-wing labor

party; the Gahal (Herut-Liberal Party aUgnment); the Independent Liberals; National Religious Party; Pbali Agudat Israel, and four small factions made up of Druze and Israeli Arabs affiliated with the Labor Party. Platform . The position" of Mrs. Meir's Government was spelled out in a platform presented to the Knesset which declared that "the government will make constant efforts to achieve a durable peace with Israel's neighbors founded on treaties of peace to be reached in direct negotiations between the parties concerned." The document asserted further, "Without peace treaties, Israel will continue to maintain in full the situation as determined by the cease-fire and will consolidate her position in accordance with the vital needs of her security and development." That platform, reflecting the demands of the rightwing, nationalistic " •"-• faotlnn; appeared to contradict the contention of some observers here and abroad that in the 1past few months Israel had "quietly dropped ' its insistence on direct peace talks with the Arabs and formal peace treaties with them. _ Mrs. -Meir's maiden speech as head of the government left little doubt about what Israel's stand will be in the months ahead. She reflected the deep concern felt here: that the Big Four powers, whose representatives were expected to confer on the Middle East at the United NationsthisI week, mavr come up with recommendations inimical to Israel's interestsand exert pressure on Israel to accept them. "The-smaliStatenof Israel vcntures-to ask— its friends . . . to understand J.hat in matters affecting our existence, the conditions for our very physical survival, no decision can be adopted without us, nor can any recommendations be formulated without our consent," Mrs. Meir said. ; . She said the Arabs must understand that the cease-fire lines can be tranquil only if quiet is maintained on both sides of tho line. ''We want tranquility," she added. "It was never our aspiration to win victory in war, but to prevent wars; But it has been demonstrated that when wars have been forced upon us, we have been able to play our. part and there is no doubt in my 1heart that if a new war is forced upon us again , we shall again be victorious." ; Former PrimeMinistef "David Ben-Gurion,-i- absent from the chamber during Mrs.' Meir's -address, arrived later but abstained,from cast- : ing a ballot in',the.confidence vote.

spent for defense," said Mr. Newman, "and we must accept the financial responsibility for the continuing human needs of hew immigrants in Israel." Mr. Newman noted that he is grateful to the many men who have agreed to share with him the campaign responsibilities this year. "While I . a m well aware of the capabilities and commitment of all the men who have assumed positions of campaign leadership, I know none better than the man who will head the Executive, Division. I am pleased to have my brother Bob working with me in this most crucial year of our annual campaigns," said Mr. Newman. Family Tradition A native Omahan, E. Robert Newman reflects a family tradition of devotion to community service. An active worker in many Phila n t h r o p i e s campaigns, Mr. Newman has also played leadership roles in the annual Israel Bond Campaigns. He is a past chairman of the annual Cancer Campaign, and has served on the board of Temple Israel. His community service includes-the vice-presidency of the board of the Archbishop Bergan Mercy Hospital; vice-president of the Mid-America Council of Boy Scouts and service on its executive board. In accepting the chairmanship, Mr. Newman said, "I am pleased to serve in this capa-

E. Robert Newman city, because I share Nick's concern about the.'.need for funds this year. To bring these needs to the attention of the business community, many men will be working with me, including Joe Pollack, who has . agreed to serve as assistant chairman of this division. I feel certain that once the needs . are made known, the men in our division will respond accordingly," Mr. Newman said.

JERUSALEM (JTA)—Defense Minister Moshe Dayan told the Knesset this week that evidence has been uncovered that Communist China is giving weapons and training to Palestinian Arab guerrillas. He said, in "a reply to questions, that Red China was the only non-Arab country where-Palestiriian terrorists got training. He disclosed that Chinese-made equipment had been found during a recent round-up of terrorist suspects. He said Egyptian intelligence units were sending terrorists into the Sinai 1 :

Israel's Foreign Ministry is still investigating reports that Cuba has been extending aid to. Palestinian Arab guerrillas and is currently training some of them on her soil. The reports, which appeared in a local paper, could not be confirmed or de-' njed by Cuban diplomats here. Israel and Cuba maintain formal diplomatic relations.

Little Progress Shown in Year After Kerner Report New York (JTA)—The American Jewish Committee said that progress toward bridging the growing gap between white and black societies in America cited by the Kerner Commission report exactly a year ago has heen slow. The assessment was made in a summary, prepared by the AJ Committee, of actions taken by private business and voluntary organizations over the past 12 months, and released by Mervin H. Riseman, chairman of the organization's domestic affairs committee. The document said that while the general commitment to eliminate bigotry- and poverty has not been "on a scale equal to the dimensions of the problems . . . many business, labor and religious leaders are now more conscious of community responsibility, aware of urban and social problems and eager to work on their solution.," Negroes, Jews In the area of Negro-Jewish relations and black anti-Semitism, the AJ Committee concludr ed that while in some communities where black extremists were mosl visible there may have been a "slowdown in Jewish participation in anti-poverty and civil rights work," there remains among AJ Committee members a conviction that "black extremists formed a small but raucous minority" and that "Jews must continue -to-hclp-the-dtBadvantaged^. The study cited the joint statement of February, 1969 by its president, Arthur J. Goldberg, and Roy Wiikins, executive director of the NAACP,

which appealed to all groups to move quickly against manlsfestations of prejudice. The statement, signed by other prominent Negro, Christian and Jewish organization leaders,_ant_ nounced the creation of a cooperative effort "to respond quickly and firmly to counter intergrotip conflict and to.develop programs to prevent such flareups." ;

Daylight Saving Time Presents ProblemsNew York (JTA)—The Ortho-

Rabbi Moshe S b c r e r appealed successfully to S t a t e Sen. John Marchi not to seek passage of the bill which would have given New York City residents an extra hour of daylight that would have b e n e f i t e d , homeward-bound school children and working women. Rabbi Sherer pointed out that Daylight time in winter would mean advancing the clock for one hour. According to religious law, the earliest time that morning prayers can begin is an hour before sunrise. In winter the sun rises about 7:15 a.m. (Easter Standard Time), and prayers cannot begin bef 6 ! 6 If an observant Jew had to begin praying at 7:15 a.m. many who must be at work early would face a conflict, Rabbi Shere pointed out.

Yeshiva University. Mr. Scheuer said he was "shocked at the suggestion" when the young man said he knew of many who feared that dissatisfaction with the performance of a Jewish mayor would lead others to "vent their anger on Jews." Rep. Scheuer claimed he was not seeking office as a Jew and later he expressed regret at "the failure of the white Christian community to speak out against black anti-Semitism."

strations, It is not enough to be "turned off" at'the materialism and inadequacies of our present society. We must rebuild anew. It is not enough to be angry young; meni Rather we should seek to make our .lives more .meaningful for ourselves arid for our children. In my opinion,-the vehicle for doing just that is my religion. Judaism is not the same thing as the way some Jews practice it, for if that were true,.our religion would have ended with the worship of^ the golden calf. Why should it end with the golden country club? We can think, feel and act for ourselves. We cqn rediscover tbat eternal spirit that has given and will continue to give us and the world so much. We can reshape our own lives, if we have the courage and will to do so.. Let not the weaknesses and inadequacies of the present deter us, for the future is ours,, not our parents. Ronald Wolfson, I am told, is planning to be a rabbi. I, for one; am pleased and proud to hear it. Despite the harshness of .his observations, he is not "turned-off", he is committed. He is a Jew, and what about the rest of us?

CORRECTION Correcting a possible misunderstanding due to typographical errors in my March 7 Jewish Press story "16 White College S t u d e n t s Live and -Learn in Ghetto": One paragraph stated' that MrrEddie Bolden-of the Oma^ ha unit of the Black Panther party presented the 10-point program of that organization. The second sentence in that paragraph should r e a d "But the other speakers, all blunt in their condemnations of hypocrisy and insufficient action, dealt with their white audience as potential allies, not as hopeless perpetuators of injustice." The sentence 'originally appeared in print with the words "their other s p e a k e r s " and "the condemnations of hypocrisy," perhaps leading readers to believe that other speakers named in the story are Black Panther members or presented the party's program. Mr. Bolden plus a black woman and a white woman who were not named in the story presented the Black Panther position. I hope this clarifies matters. . <• Stuart Frohm

wjth the over 50 per cent of St. Louis' Jews who do not belong to a Synagogue or'Temple. Some, perhaps, are lost. ^ But others are as committed to the ideal and continuation of Judaism as the One million Jews who created the Torah in Babylon,rAnd this will be-true-ofyou and many; of your contemporaries. " ;' • ' Because, where you find a Jewish Country Club, you find Jews who support Israel and related Jewish causes. They are here to serve a purpose, too. Maybe they couldn't explain in terms your young college idealism would wish to hear because .their age has given them a dimension that your age has yet to experience. However, if your dimension takes you into social services, they will support your works because the sacredness of life and the dehumanizing waste of suffering they understand. They would give you the money, but not arrogantly, for in their hearts they know money is a means and not something to worship. Mrs. Richard (Doris) Roslnsky NOT GUILTY! I ,am a much older than 19 year old Jew, committed to my religion's ethical and moral teachings. I am a 22nd' year housewife, an 18th year Jewish mother, and I, unlike the editor of the Jewish Press, did not find myself squirming as I read Ronald Wolfson's paper. : Instead, I took hope in his presentation of the problems and realized it is for all of us to find ' the solutions. The activist Jewish students who so disproportionately dominate the liberal groups on campus, did not spring forth college-age from,. the womb. They were nurtured and supported in a family setting that Identifies itself as being Jewish in some varying degree, either religiously or ethnically. .... That the college -student's lack of Jewishness cannot be blamed on him, I find heartbreakingly true, and accept a large share of responsibility for the failure of my genera- < tion. But that is all the responsibility l e a n assume.. • The Jewish student himself, by all and every means, must abandon his childhood concept of Judaism in order to replace it with one more realistic, more mature and more meaningful. Those very students who reject materialism in favor of moral and ethical issues of our time are perpetuating the most viable aspect of Jewish tradition; —the prophetic tradition; of social justice, : I urge young people to reject superficiality, m i n i m a l commitment, passivity; but to acknowledge from w h e n c e sprang the seeds of their social conscience. Applaud and denigrate the efforts of the establishment with equal fervor, and return, not to a vapid Jewish community, but with real hope for a living and vibrant Judaism. Mrs. Dan (Ruth) Katzman PLEASE HELP Israel has many rising problems that it will not be able to cope with unless we give them our help. You might ask, why should we help Israel? Israel is .our homeland and our, heritage. Without it our religion could not surive,

QUESTION: Why is It that upon visiting the sick or the mourn« « ott W«e Sabbath, one makes a special declaration to them reminding them that It Is the Sabbath? ANSWER: Visiting the sick and the.mourners on the Sabbath is a commendable act However, in doing this, the visitor must ever keep mindful of the spirit of the Sabbath. It is on the Sabbath that man must feel that he lacks nothing and is in a state of complete well-being. The sick and the mourners must, theerfore, contain their ..joutBanLieelbgs..jDf_an^ijsJi.:and_djspair^ndjn^ke everyjittempt to present an air of peace and serenity. • - Those who visit them on weekdays take note of what ails or grieves them and offer a prayer that the ailment or grief be cured or consoled by the Almighty himself. On the Sabbath, the visitor must not bring to publk^attention that the peace of the Sabbath has been disturbed. To one who is ill, the visitor says, "It is the Sabbath, when one must not cry out, and recovery will soon come; and enjoy the Sabbath rest in peace."0 To one who is in mourning, th» visitor proclaims, "It is the Sabbath, when one must not offer condolence to mourners, and consolation will soon come; and enjoy the Sabbath in peace." Thus, the visitor performs a virtuous deed by bringing comfort to the sick and condolencg_to the bereaved without disturbing the peace of the Sabbath, which is of paramount _

That's sports for you. MIDGET BASKETBALL LEAGUE Mayfair Textile and I-Go-Van met in the championship game last Sunday bringing the season to a dramatic finish. Mayfair Textile coached by Bruce Muskin, the team leading the league most of the season, was certainly up for this game. IGo-Van, coached by Lynn Durking, a team that won four straight games to get into the championship game, was also ready. The contest was a see-saw battle all the way through. IGo-Van jumped off to an early lead, but"Mayfair Textile came back and had a surprising 6 point lead at half-time. Both teams exchanged' baskets the third quarter. During the fourth quarter when Dan Sherman fouled out for Mayfair, they found themselves without a ball handler. Barry Summers made a few decisive steals and layups, which turned out to be the margin of the 29-2G victory for I-Go-Van. Bruce Rips and Tom Harris both played well for IGo, as did their whole team.
