Forty Israeli soldiers were posted there and with the aid of three tanks they fought back the Egyptians who tried time and again to assault and storm this important position. Some of the soldiers were injured, but they continued to fight back. . Finally the commander of the position radioed his superior that if the injured were to be saved they must surrender.

Des M©ines Mew* Section A Declaration of Conscience

Proclamation on the Holy Day War On Sabbath and Yom Kippur, October 6,1973, the holiest : day Of the Jewish year, Jewish people in Israel and throughout the world were In prayer. On this sacred day of fasting and prayer, Egypt and Syria launched a massive, simultaneous invasion a g a i n s t Israel. This was a profanation against Israel, the Jewish faith and a desecration of human life. Due to the coordinated Egyptian and Syrian invasionmany people, on all sides, have been maimed and killed on battle fields.and in kibbutzim and cities.. In this critical hour silence would be a moral sin. We, ' therefore,' condemn. the blasphemy of this unconscionable invasion which has resulted in inestimable suffering and death on all sides. We fervently hope and pray that peace will be restored immediately and that all parties in the Near East conflict will begin face to face negotiations for a lasting and just peace.

Jerusalem: (AJPA) <A war brings out the best in peopfc and the worst in people. In Israel, the war is proving for the most part what Israeli leaders have reiterated again and again: That the greatest asset Israel has Is the quality of her people. There is Motty, a paratrooper, whose unit has not yet been mobilized. He is baderging the army to let him join another unit so that he can play his

Egyptian Pilots Train in Britain

London (JTA)—A major uproar was developing in Parliament following the revelation, confirmed by g o v e r n m e n t sources, that Egyptian military helicopter pilots are training in Britain.

nounced by the government is being applied selectively to the detriment of Israel. Inquiries at the Foreign Office have not allayed the grave suspicions.

He joined his unit on the first day of hostilities, and was sent liome for medical reasons.' He and' his wife decided that his life was worth risking in the interests of the nation. He went back the next day. She hasn't heard from him since, and to stop herself from thinking about him. She does volunteer work at' Hadassah hospital. People who have only recently become Israelis are reacting with' the same degree of selflessness. Pedro, a dentist from South America, on the first day of tho war, stationed himself on guard duty at the absorption center wtoere he lives. Later, he swept out the bomb shelter. Then he went to fill sandbags: and last night he baked bread in a bakehouse whose regular bakers have gone to the front. Lilly, a secretary from Canada;- can't bear the sight of blood, and throws up at the mere mention of illness. She volunteered to work at Hadassah, not realizing that she would be> called upon to feed Uie wounded. "You know, I di<hVfvev^nthink about throwing up" she said afterwards. Although Israel has: tried to keep life on the home front as normal as possible, a glance at ant, local paper will confirm that the situation is anything but normal. Newspapers are carrying very few advertise-

ments. And those that they do carry are in the m a i n announcements about emergency precautions or postponements of scheduled events. Although there is no panic among the people, there is an extraordinary alertness to every alien sound. An air raid warning went out yesterday, shattering the Sabbath tranquility for the second lime since this war began, people ran with (be speed of trained athletes to the shelters. Many carried babies in their arms. Some arrived with food and blankets not knowing how long they would bave to spend in the shelters. Israeli morale arid tenacity cannot be shattered. This is in no small measure due to the radio and television stations who programs are full of inspiring songs based on verses from the.Bible . .'.-verses which speak of hope and faith . . . Arab stations by contrast, are concentrating on martial _ music. Israelis know that they have a Job to do, be it on the battle ground or on the home front. Dina, a professional cook, with six male members of her family in the army, took time out of the kitchen to watch the news on television. A cameraman had caugfct.her brother in his^lens. Dina had a temporary fit of hysterics; and yet when it was suggested to her that she go home, she shrugged off her tears and said matter-of-facUy, "people have to eat."

(From Combined National and International JTA Dispatches.)-

A groundswell of support for Israel's defense against the attack by Egyptians and Syrian armed forces on Yom Kfppur has been expressed by Jewish and non-Jewish leaders throughout the world. The theme^runnlng through all the messages and statements was that the two Arab countries bad crossed the cease-fire'lines in an unprovoked and premeditated assault on the Jewish state. '" Throughout the United States there are reports of unprece; dented responses to the call for cash to aid the Israeli crisis.

Sidelines Historians, political s c i e n .tists, diplomats, military strategists for years to come will be a n a l y z i n g every detail of the war raging t o d a y in the Middle East. Between y o u l and me, the ex-1 perts will cornel up with only a I secondary an-{ swer to how why Israel Gerclick win t h i s war. The real answer is emotional, unscientific, unacceptable to experts, but true just the same. Iirael win win and survive be'came the uniqueness of the Jewish people cannot' be destroyed. Haman, Hitler, Nascar couldn't do it—neither will Sadat. . The unbelievable Israeli victory in the^6 Day War may startle the military strategists —but not me. How did the Israelis win a war outnumbered as. they were? The answer is simple. The I s r a e l i s have Chutzpah—the ability to defy reason, the guts and the ingenuity to do the impossible and

chutzpah of members of several card groups motivated the groups to donate "all the winnings that day" to the Crisis Fund. A large sum was collected b°y the Chutzpah of one person who conducted ? small campaign on a bus of Omahans returning from a football weekend.
