Rogers WASHINGTON (JTA)—Secretary of State William P . Rogers indicated this week that Israel would get some of the Phantom and Skyhawk jets it has asked for. Mr. Rogers said a decision on the sale of more jet fighters to Israel would be announced very soon—"before a few weeks." At the" same time, Newsweek magazine reported that Mr. Rogers will announce shortly that Israel is to get about 15 Phantoms and 50/Skyhawks, supposedly as replacement for aircraft lost in combat over the Suez Canal zone. Newsweek reported that "for weeks, the U.S. State Department tried to sell Israel on making this replacement deal in private. Israel, however, appears to have won in its insistence on a public commitment." Israel has asked the United States

to sell it 25 more Phantoms and about 100 Skyhawks. Mr. Rogers indicated that the United States was following a policy of reassuring Israel while trying not to alienate the Arab worjd in the matter of the. jet sales. "What we want to do Is make it clear to Israel that our p o l i c y has not changed," he said. "It's in our best interest to be sure that Israel survives as a nation. That's been our <policy and it will continue to be our policy. So we have to take whatever action we think is necessary to give the assurances that they need that their independence and sovereignty is going to be continued." "At the same time," he

it in a,balanced and measured way so that we don't signal to the Arabs that we are so behind Israel that we'll support them no matter what they do. The reason for that is that we want to keep the door open for negotiations. We're going , to do everything we can in the next few weeks to try to get negotiations started," the Secretary of State said. A State Department spokesman said last Friday that its reappraisal of the Middle East balance of power has been virtually completed. The reappraisal was ordered by President Nixon in April when the presence of Soviet pilots and SAM-3 anti-aircraft missiles in Egypt was confirmed.

Mrs. Meir Says Israel Jerusalem (JTA) — Premier Golda Meir, in a renewed appeal for Egyptian participation in peace negotiations, has announced that Israeli government representatives are prepared to go to Cairo to talk peace. : In an interview published in the Jerusalem Arabic daily "Al Anba", Mrs. Meir stated she" was "convinced that peace :will come," observing "Both we and our neighbors need it." Referring to President Gamal Abdel Nasser," Mrs. Meir asked: "Does he want the present situation or is he willing to make peace?"

News Around the World Jerusalem (JTA)—Former Premier David Ben Gurion expressed concern over the future Jewish character of the State of Israel. Lecturing at Tel Avjv University he warned that "unless we do nicjre to encourage immigration and ensure that Jews do the work in this land, the Jewish nature oi the state is in danger." He said a point might be reached in 20 years when Arabs constituted a majority of the population and did most of the work. •Mr. Ben Gurion said he favored returning all of the occupied Arab territories, except East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights, in return for "a real peace." "Unfortunately," he said, "I do not see peace In the near future."

Geneva (JTA)—A conference on Soviet Jewry attended by more than 100 Jewish and non-Jewish public figures and representatives of public groups agreed here to establish in Switzerland a permanent Committee for Soviet Jewry. Jerusalem (JTA)—Israel emphatically denied an Arab charge that it has leased two islets in the Red Sea from Ethiopia for conversion into air and naval bases. A Foreign Ministry spokesman said the allegation by the Palestine liberation Front was "a completely contrived propaganda fabrication which has no foundation whatsoever." The spokesman said it was "significant that

Jerusalem <JTA)—Israel's Minister of Tourism, Moshe Kol, reported that tourism to Israel has increased 10.4 percent from January through May compared to the same period last year despite Arab propaganda and the threats posed by terrorists. Mr. Kol said ''there is no doubt that with better security conditions the increase would have been even greater."

New York (JTA)—More than 2,800 college and high school students will participate in summer programs sponsored by the American Zionist Youth- Foundation this year and together with

Inter-Dating Linked To liberal Families' Detroit (JTA) —Jewish students from Reform, Conservative and Orthodox homes all "~were"found to be more tolerant than disapproving of interdating, though Orthodox students were least approving, according to a study of the views of 100 Jewish male students attending Michigan State University. The study was made by Mark Engelman, an MSU student at Lansing. He found that the attitude toward inter-dating by the college men were linked to family matters, religious background and influence in the home and the porportion of Jews to non-Jews in the student's home towns and high schools. Other factors were the presence or absence of mixed marriage in the students' families. The incidence of interdating was found to be highest among .Jewish students from families with a liberal attitude toward religion or where religious influence was weak. Inter-dating was least frequent among students whose parents were religious and who had a strong religious upbringing.

year-long projects, all participants in AZYF programs will exceed 3,300. "There is a substantial growth in the number of participants in the summer programs which, in comparison with last year, have increased more than 25 percent," William Levine , Executive Director of the AZYF, stated. The first contingent will leave for Israel from Kennedy International Airport, New York on June 21. The AZYF programs in Israel are administered by the Qouth & Hechalulz Department of the Jewish Agency in Jerusalem. Local and regional representatives of the AZYF report tremendous interest in the- various programs for college students and high school graduates.

the story emanates from the Syrian propaganda machine which in this case "is fed by the socalled Eritrean Liberation Front and timed to coincide with the visit of Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia to Egypt."

New York (JTA)—"A Storm in Summer," a play about mistrust and hostility between an elderly Jewish grocer and a Negro boy that eventually evolved into mutual understanding and love, was named as the best single dramatic program of the 196&-70 television season. It received the appropriate Emmy award from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.

second and Orthodox students favored the practice by 23.3 percent to 16.7 opposed. He found an important corelation between inter-dating and the size of the Jewish population in the town where the student was raised and in the high school he attended. A small J e w i s h population in high school tended to encourage inter-dating but the practice met with less approval in towns with small Jewish population. From high s c h o o l s where the Jewish student body was less than 25 percent, 68 percent of the Jewish graduates at MSU inter-dated and 12 percent did not. Another finding was that in a city where the Jewish population, is less than 25 percent, the male student would strongly disapprove of a sibling marrying a non-Jew—witln34-percent disapproving and slightly more than three percent approving. In cities with a Jewish population of more than 25 percent, n e a r l y 43 percent would approve while nearly 20 percent would disapprove. The findings also indicated that inter-dating was much less frequent for men with parents living together. "When parents are'separated," he reported, "social control is definitely affected.

Blind Youth Enters Seminary Cantorial School New York (JTA)—A 20-yearold youth, blind from birth, will enter the School of Sacred Music of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in September as the'first blind candidate for a cantorial degree from the Reform cantorial school, according to the Jewish Braille Institute of America. ,. Stephen Casell was'one of the institute's first blind Bar Mitzvah candidates, according to Judge Emil N. Baar, president of the institute. The youth took a master's degree in music at Manhattan School of Music. The Braille institute sponsored ihe youth, after his graduation, for private cantorial training by Paul Kwartin, the cantor of Temple' Union, the Reform synagogue in Brooklyn. The youth conducted half of the regular Friday night services recently at the Union Temple and wUl conduct the overflow services for the next High Holy Days there. The institute provided the youth with all of his religious school textbooks in Braille and taught him Hebrew Braille. It has also since provided him with all his Braille music manuscripts for his religious music studies.

Students Mobilize Anti-War Speakers Program York (JTA)-The Students for Peace organization of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, the conservative Institution, has set up a speakers bureau to send Seminary students to speak at Jewish groups on behalf of efforts to mobilize Jewish public opinion against United States participation in the Viet Nam War. Students will discuss, before synagogues, schools, youth and other groups in ..the Jewish community, "the moral issues involved in the escalation and expansion of the war in Indo China and'the growing violence in our cities. They will inform iht Jewish public of their plans to mobilize public opinion against the war and outline possible courses of action which can be taken by concerned individuals. The S t u d e n t s for Peace

group, comprised of students from the Teachers InstituteSeminary College of Jewish Students, and the Seminary's Rabbinical School, will lobby in Washington for the passage of anti-war legislation and canvass communities to develop support for such legislation. The students, during the. summer, will explore with other young people the forms of political action .possible within the framework of a democratic society and the Jewish tradition.

The Jewish Quiz Box QUESTION: Why is it forbidden to deface the structure of a synagogue In any way? ANSWER: The synagogue of today has a measure of holiness that was characteristic of the temple of old. It was forbidden to deface any part of the structure of the temple of old and it is likewise forbidden to deface any part of the structure of the synagogue of today..Some explain this prohibition on the grounds pf creating a positive attitude to that which is holy and pure! From the various things which the Rabbis prohibited one tc do in the synagogue, it was quite obvious that the honor of the synagogue was paramount. One could thus not use the synagogue as a short cut in passing from one locale to another. One could also not wear military'weapons when entering the synagogue. One's attire must be clean and relatively formal instead of a ,solled-OC-casuaUappearance._Secular_J)usiness, ordinary jesting . and the like were forbidden as an activity in the synagogue. A proper attitude of respect and decorum was required at all times. Some traditions forbid, any type of informal or secular conversation in the synagogue, t.

Libyan Pilots to BeRabbi Discounts Assimilation Trained in France PARIS (JTA)-A small group of Libyan pilots will gox to France shortly to learn to fly the new Mirage-3 fighter aircraft. -They.will return to Libya toward the end of the year to become instructors. But Libya is not expected to be able to produce an effective Mirage squadron for at least several years, military observers said here. Last winter the Libyan military regime ordered 110 Mirages from France, an arms deal that surprised the world and brought loud protests from Israel. The Libyan Air Force was not consld•wed capable of absorbing tbe highly sophisticated supersonic jets and it was believed they would find their way into Egyptian hands for use against Israel. But the French training and delivery program, it now appears, will be spread over several years. Tfa» first Libyan Mirage training cadre is expected to bring home with it four Mirage trainers at the end of the year. About 20 more of the planes' will be delivered in 1971 and the remaining deliveries will stretch into 1974. ;

Middle East Military Strength

By BEN GALLOB A rabbi who has studied the results of more than 40 Jewish population surveys has discounted the threat of severe assimilation among American Jews for at least the immediate future. The studies all were made since World War II. The data from those studies was outlined by Rabbi. Ronald M. Goldstein of Buffalo, N.Y., in the current Issue of the American Jewish Archives. ''Since assimilation i s the present cultural pattern, one would be remiss not. to question religious assimilation for tbe future," he asserted. However, he added, his findings indicated that "Jewish Identity is strong, that there is a conscious effort to maintain Jewish survival." Ho predicted that m i x e d marriages without conversion would continue to increase in the present third generation of American-born Jews "but con-

This answer was by far the most common. The program director then analyzed means used to help drug users to reach that decision. One of the primary keys is to motivate campers and staff to make the camp important enough to warrant the disuse of drugs. The result of that effort was that "many campers expressed the feeling that because of the atmosphere, relationships, activities and life style of the camp, the daily experience became so meaningful and exciting that drugs no longer'added a new dimension."

Did You Know?

By Mickey Gerelick could be sweeter to a Jewish mother's ears.) "You look so pretty." (I'm a woman, and even with extra pounds and circles under the eyes, it's nice to hear.) "The bride is perfectly love~Iy" (Just whafmy son, UIB doll/deservesT)' Receiving lines really .aren't as terrifying once you've been on the other side. Just remember that the bride and groom hear nothing up there on cloud nine. The fathers have taken the precaution of having a few drinks to see them through. The mother of the bride has lots to think about besides what you're saying (like what's going on in the kitchen.) And unless the mother of the groom is a reporter making a survey, I'll bet she doesn't listen too closely either. So at the next wedding, relax and enjoy yourself. Offer your, good wishes quickly. "Mazel Tov" and "May they have lots of nachas" really says it all. As for the nice, things, maybe you'll be lucky like the people at our wedding who didn't haVe' to lie—cause honestly-* it's all true. My son is a doll, and his bride is a perfect match. It really was a lovely wedding—and you know I wouldn't lie to you lit this column.
