Reform Rabbi Arrested in Anti-War Demonstration New York (JTA)—An American rabbi castigated ihe organized Jewish community- for "failure to join with others of the greater society" in condemning the Vietnam war and its recent expansion by the United States into Cambodia. Rabbi Balfour Brickner, director of interfaith activities of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations in New York, said the failure of ..organized Jewry to participate in the antiwar movement "jeopardizes the credentials of the- Jewish community with its own youth who -reject a parochial approach toiheissuesofwar and peace in tho world." Omaha Mayor, Eugene Leahy, one of 12 mayors Invited to visit Israel by tho Israel Ministry of Tourism, is pictured above with Mrs. Leahy and Amram Zur of the Israel Ministry of Tourism, at El Al's Orange Terminal at Kennedy Airport in New York, prior to their departure for Tel Aviv. -

Upon arriving in New York, tho Omaha mayor said, "You have to see Israel to believe it, I am going to urgo people to visit Israel and assure-them that they will feel safe In Israel, The historical spots are meaningful to people of every faith. The most significant thing to mo Is the specific pride and spirit and friendliness of the people. Israel is an example for other nations struggling with the problem of how to feed and employ their people. I never saw so much construction anywhere." Mayor Leahy said Jews and Arabs living together, especially in Jerusalem, was an indlcation that peopla can co-exist

in freedom. He was Impressed that the Mayor of Bethlehem could speak forthrightly in criticizing Israeli occupation without fear in exercising his freedom of speech. Mayor Leahy said he will urge Omaha Jewry to increase their support of United Jewish Appeal and Israeli causes.

Ho did not attend as a representative of the UAHC but as a member of the Fellowship of Reconciliation, Clergymen and Laymen Concerned About Vietnam. Rabbi Brickner said the Vietnam war and its escalation was a "life or death" Issue for America and possibly t h e world. "It should not be considered an Issue with which everybody but Jews concern themselves." He said; "Jews have a tendency to view, the world situation In a myopic way, through the prism of the Israeli glass," Rabbi Brickner said he rejected an analogy between support for American policies

in Egypt calculation or misunderstanding of the Soviet intentions could be "disastrous" and that,,"lhe security of mankind" could depend on what the .United States would do. Eban recalled President Nixon's "State ol the World" message to Congress last February, in which the President said the United States would view "with gravity" any Soviet push to gain dominance in the Middle East. The Foreign Minister said he hoped that this warning would now be translated into "concrete" terms. White Hmse Reaction..._' Washington (JTA)—The White House disclosed that President Nixon had ordered an immediate and full study of intelligence reports dealing with the presence of Russian pilots in Egypt. Ronald Zeigler, White House press secretary, told newsmen that when Nixon last month rejected Israel's request for more Phantom jets "the President emphasized that the Israeli arms decision was an interim decision and the military level would be watched closely." • ' Congressional Reaction Rep. Leonard Farbstein, Democrat of New York sent a telegram to President Nixon asking him to make good his pledge to "preserve the military balance in the Middle East" in the wake of the Israeli report on Soviet pilots. Mr. Farbslein said that he felt now was the time to sell the 25 Phantom and 100 Skyhawk jets to Israel.

Jerusalem (JTA) — Israel's security was in grave new jeopardy this week with the official disclosure by the Israel Government that Soviet pilots were flying Egyptian jets on air defense missions over Egypt. Premier Golda Meir sent a message to President Nixon requesting urgent reconsideration of his- decision in March to withhold action on Israel's request to buy more Phantom and Skyhawk jet planes. The United States was informed that so far -the-Soviet-piloted Egyptian w a r pi a ats-had stayed away from the Suez Canal zone but that during the past two weeks, Soviet pilots have been scrambling into attack formation at almost , every potential approach by an Israeli plane into Egyptian air space beyond the canal zone. '" The, announcement noted that in March the Soviets began installing SAM-3 anti-aircraft missiles in Egypt manned by Soviet personnel and added that the twin Soviet moves had "already enabled Egypt to increase its aggressive acts against Israel." While Soviet-piloted planes have not interfered with Israeli air strikes at Egyptian positions in the canal zones, ttffeir presence has freed Egyptian pilots for new attacks on Js- . raeli positions on the canal and inside the Sinai peninsula. . Foreign Minister Abba Eban demanded "vig, orous concrete" world reaction to the disclosure about the Soviet pilots. He warned that any mis-

Jewish Groups Urged to Provide Draft Counseling Philadelphia (JTA)—A Philadelphia draft counseling expert told a Jewish-sponsored Institute on Military Counseling here that many American draftees who flee to Canada to avoid being drafted do so because of ignorance about their legal rights and failure to seek qualified advice. Many of the fleeing American draftees are known to be Jews. "The loss .of young men to Canada is a tragedy for the United States as well as for -themselves," James Schrag, director of the Philadelphia Draft Information Center, told the institute. The meeting was sponsored by the Middle Atlantic, region of the National Jewish Welfare Board. It was attended by 45 representatives of Jewish; centers and YMYWHAs throughout Pennsylvania,— Camden and Somer-

ville, N.J., Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. Mr. Schrag indicated that some of those who fled to Canada did so because they were conscientious objectors. He added that issues of such status undoubtedly could have been handled through legal channels if the draftees had r e c e i v e d appropriate draft counseling. Rabbi Dov Elkins, co-chair-

Sen. Stuart Symington told the Senate this week that United States failure to sell more jets to Israel immediately would constitute a "historical crime." The Missouri Democrat, a highranking member of the Foreign Relations Committee, pointed to what he called a "strong paradox in American foreign military policy," namely that "We support a newly tried and unformed government in Cambodia, but at the same time have . . . refused to sell vitally needed arms to Israel. It has never been clear," Mr. Symington continued, "why we^Jiave been willing to give arms to Arab stateT wliile^we have not been willing to sell arms to Israel."

Rep.

Sen. Richard Schweiker, Pennsylvania Republican, said that "even-handedness is a nice policy on paper but we are dealing with unequal sides." Sen.

Wo Skullcaps Allowed' At N. Y.StockExchange New York (JTA)-The New York City commission on Human Rights announced that it . will hold a hearing on the complaint of an Orthodox Jew that he was refused permission to wear a skullcap while working at his job at the New York Stock Exchange. The commission said the complaint, charging discrimination, was filed by Abraham J. Goldstein, 26, of Forest Hills, N.Y. who has = been employed by the exchange as a tube operator since April 1968. The complainant declared that during an . v orientation session soon after he was hired, he was told he could not wear_ a skullcap While he was working on the •floor during trading hours and • when Mr. Goldstein asked why, he was told it would "disturb the brokers." He said he then agreed not to wear the skullcap, as required by JewJsh^tradition, during those trading hours. Last January, he declared In-

his complaint, he was wearing the skullcap while working off the exchange floor on an upper level, a practice he followed since he was hired; when a supervisor told him he could not wear the skullcap anywhere in the exchange building. He filed his complaint In January, charging he was discriminated against because of his religion, which is illegal under city anti-discrimination law.

San Francisco (JTA) — The Black Panthers have discarded their b a r e l y concealed antiSemitism, insisting in the past they were not against Jews but only against Zionism, and_haye._ now declared that Jewisliness, Zionism and racism are identical.

But he was not detained or harmed. Mr. Nabulsi a p p e a r e d in Amman before a special UN committee investigating human rights in the Israel-occupied territories.

Miss Matthews declares that "other Zionists in the (Chicago) Conspiracy 8 trial were willing and did sacrifice Bobby Seale and his role in the conspiracy trial to gain "publicity."

The eight defendents included Mr. Seale. —What Miss Matthews did not state was that only two of the remaining seven defendents— Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin—were Jewish. Mr. Hoffman was sentenced to e i g h t months, and Mr. Rubin to two years, one month and 23 days. N e i t h e r did Miss Mathews state that the two defense lawyers, Wijliam K u n s t l e r and Leonard Weinglass—both Jewish—also received heavy sentences. All four, have repeatedly disassociated themselves from Zionism and have persistently expressed hostility toward Israel.

This venomous diatribe by Miss Matthews appears, in the latest issue of the BPP official org^n, The Black Panther. As evidence of the basic JewishZionist-racist character of the white left, she notes that a "Zionist judge, Judge (Julius J.)

Des Moines JCC Plans Day Camp

Des Moines Hebrew School Plans Told

day.

New York (JTA)-A nationwide survey by the American Jewish Congress has found that groups seeking public funds for parochial schools arc stepping up their demands'to the point of asking for "parity" — the same financing for sectarian schools as for public schools. . The study cited these developments: In Missouri and California, identical Federal lawsuits have been filed asking that both states be compelled to finance non-public schools with Federal, state and local tax money to the same extent as public schools and demanding that the provisions in the state constitution forbidding the use of tax moneys for sectarian schools be declared -invalid under the Federal Constitution on the ground that they discriminate unfairly in favor of public schools. In Pennsylvania, a 1963 law giving $4.8 million in direct aid to religiously-affiliated schools was amended tins year

to give $23 million for the coming school year. In Michigan, a "purchase-ofservices" bill costing tho state $22 million during Ihe first year of operation will cost $40 million in the 1971-72 fiscal year. Jn Oliio, a 1969 law underwriting part of the cost of salaries of lay teachers in pa-, rochia] schools will cost taxpayers $45 million during the current school year. In New York, the Legislature passed a bill giving nonpublic schools public fundsamounting to $28 million — for the first time. The declared purjx>se of the measure was to defray the cost of keeping attendance and other records required by the state. . In a statement commenting

on the demand for "parity," the American Jewish Congress declared: "No one doubts that the public schools are in trouble today. Starved for funds, they are criticized both for being too progressive and for not moving with the times. Saddled with responsibility for derling with more and more, problems having little or nothing to do with education, our public s c h o o l s need more funds, not more competition for public support. "Private and p a r o c h i a l schools have a place in American education and a free society. But they have no call on the public, purse for support. The 'parity' they are now demanding means the destruction of public education as wo have known it in this country."

The Jewish Quiz Box

QUESTION: Why do some synagogues feel It necessary to start the Sabbath morning services at a later time than'week day morning services? > ANSWER: There are at least two reasons given for this. Chicago (JTA)—Sen. - Hugh Some contend that the services begin later so that the worshipScott, Republican of Pennsyl- pers will get a chance to sleep later. This is done in order that vania, urged complete support the Sabbath be truly characterized as a day of rest. Others say of Israel to prevent full-scale that this is done because the Sabbath morning sacrifice in the war in the Middle East and de- Temple in the days of old was offered after the daily sacrifice clared that "America's best ln-_ was offered.

London (JTA)—Premier Golda Meir of Israel declared that "Wo won't run" if confronted with direct Soviet military intervention in Egypt. Mrs. Meir appeared on the BBC world affairs program, "Panorama." If Israel has to fight the Russians, she said, "it is their choice, they have decided far away from their borders to join a fight that has notiiing to do with them. Anybody who stands there against us and wishes to destroy us, whatever his nationality, is an enemy facing us in battle and we won't run," she said. Mrs. Meir was interviewed by Alan Hart whose provocative questions were frequently met with acerbic replies from the 72-year-old Premier. She accused Russia of major responsibility for the Six-Day War, adding, "We refused to lose the war which would have meant death to this people. We fought back to stay alive." When Mr. Hart suggested that continued Israeli attacks on Egypt might lead to a Big Power confrontation In the Middle East, Mrs. Meir replied, "That may be true, but what

is Israel supposed to do to avoid humiliating the Russians and Egyptians and save tha Big Powers from embarrassment? Convenfenfly pass out ot this world? If that's expected * our friends had better understand that the people of Israel have no intention whatsoever to accommodate anybody Vby giving up its life or its sovereigiity." She said Israelis did not go to Russia to fight Russian pilots, it is Russians who are stationed in Egypt. "This is not a war fought between Russia • and Israel but between Egypt and Israel and anybody on Egyptian, Jordanian, or Syrian soil who fights us, we shall fight back," Mrs. Meir said. Asked ff Israel could count • on American aid, Mrs. Meir said, "We don't think any coun1 •' will send an army just for i r survival. The problem of the Russians in the area is not only an Israeli problem. The powers will have to solve their problems themselves. What Israel asks from friendly governments are the means of self-defense."
