the Synagogue Council of America and to report to the plenary session of the UOJCA's national convention in November. This action stems from the Union's position which denies religious legitimacy and authority to the Reform and
Conservative movements here and in Israel. It comes in response to the recent attacks by the Reform and Conservative movements upon the National Religious Party in Israel which supports the halachic position on the Law of Return and conversions.

NEA By-Laws Called 'Racist' Palm Beach, Fla. — Tlw Anti-Defamation League of B.'nai B'rith has condemned as "unlawful, undemocratic and racist" the new Constitution and ^laws of the National Education Asaociatkm. In a report to the League's national executive committee, Lawrence Peirex, chairman of the agency's civil rights committee, said AOL "will take steps to challenge the legality of provlskms In the NEA rules which mandate quotas and preferential treatment for certain minorities in the selection of officers and lay leadership and in NEA suff employment." Accardhig to Mr. Peim, the NEA Constitution specifically designates a$ ethnic minorities blacks, Mexican-Americans, other Spanish-speaking groups. Asian-Americans and Indians. The NEA authorizes
those minorities alone to nominate minority candidates for Its board of directors and executive committee. It further requires tlial there be a minimum of 30 per cent ethnic minority represenUtion on the NEA board. Mr. Peirez declared that the NEA, in a misguided attempt to assist minorities, "has codified, straUfied and perpetuated discrimination, and, at the same time, has violated Title VII of the Civil RIghU Act which explicitly forbjds such practices." Nothig that the NEA is a professional group of American educators, Mr. Peirez charged that the new Constitution and Bylaws deny members the right and responsibility to select the best qualified leadership and staff personnel without regard to etluic or racial background.

AidtaRehagecs There is another form of support which Arab* receive from the U. S. government to which attention is aeldom paid. Thia is the aid given through the United Nations for Arab refugees. Since 19S0 the U. S. has contributed 1625 million to the United Nations Relief and Work Agency for Palestine Refugees, briefly known as UNRWA. This sum represents about 66 per cent of the UNRWA Income. It means that the U. S. covers two-thirds of all the expenses connected with maintaining the Palestine refugees. Most of the refugee population live in Egypt. Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, thus these countries are benefiting from the funds spent by UNRWA there. It is interesting to note that the Arab states — which could have long ago absorbed the Palestinian refugees into their economy and thereby solve the refugee problem — are contributing only 3 per cent to the UNRWA budget, leaving the burden to be carried by the United States. All the Arab countries logether contribute about $23 million a year to the UNRWA II aid for Palestinian refugcet. Israel alon^ contribiMes more than $6 million a year.

llieeclilttr THE OTHER SIDE ^ OF THE NET Assuming jtou are reading this with a bruised and battered ego, may I offer some sympathetic words to she who attacks modem shibboleths. In your obviously tongue-lncbeek article on tennis, one can find gralDs of Irutk worthy of farther study. There may be, for example, some cause to pause as we all participate in the major effori of changing our crowd to the in<rowd. The motivation of "slaying in shape" may be complemented by the desire of some people to do and act and even be what the gentiles do, act and are. The supreme Joy we felt when Sandy Koufax refused to pitch In the worM series on Vom Kippur and matched by Ike seven gold medal wtaincr at the Olympics msy someday be matched by a Jewish Davis capper. The danger Is nlways tkere: however, thst we msy Amcricsaise onrselves right out cf existence as Jews. Deep in your article if a question that must continually be ashed, "Are we losing our identity?" Obviously participation in sports in and of itself is no real problem, but athletic success just as any success in any field can be a problem to us Jews. We are plagued by succeas.
The dwdaraUon of a worid-wide AUYAH MONTH by the r Israeli Government and the World Zionist Orgoniutioa underscores the importance and urgency of the Jewiah immigration to Israel. It is significant that at a time when the Jewish state is beset with so many vital and pressing problems : that Aliyah is still a major priority. Even more noteworthy, is the emphasis that has been placed on increasing Aliyah from the advanced Western I countriet, and particulariy the United Stales and Canada. The period from Febnury iMfc ta March IMh kas boea designated AUYAH MONTH .^In the United States. It U being co-sponsored by the American Zionist Federation and the Israel AUYAH Centers, with the support and cooperation of ,-OOO-Ziooist organlMtioiis and ail three religious movements as well. i
Tha idea of an ALIYAH MONTH is innovative and exdting. attampt to demonstrste to American Jewry what ALIYAH means to Israel and the role that weatem Jewry can play in Israeli aociety la both Umely and necessary.

The time has come for American Jews who are seeking s more personal commitment to Urael to begin consklerlflg ' Aliyah as a viable and, indead, daalrabto answer.

Another battle is still raging in Israel: the battle against human need. If you know any history and read the papers, you know what war can do to a country-disruption, human distress, suffering. With compassion, care and massive funds we can begin to repair some of the damage. And we can take care of new immigrants who are still coming. JM^'Tpblems like these, this is no time to sit back.

\mwtr: — This is • question which must r occtir to many people, but which is difficult r to diicuM because almost all cases are ex^tranely confidential; and so to protect the • annonymity of the persons involved, one cannot, in a small community such as ours, . ever talk about specific circumstances. The Executive Director of the Jewish _ Family Services', formerly called the Jewish Social Service, is Lll Carson, the Chairman is Martin Pidgeon; also serving this agency is a working board, with each member responsible for a special area, such as employment, youth concerns, legal advice, future planning, public-relatloas, conridentiality, and liason with other community agencies. We feel the answer to this question would be incomplete without the opinion of the agency chairman, and we thank Martin Pidgeon for preparing the following:
WHY JEWISH FAMILY SERVICES? 18 IT NEEDED? NO — if the ISO plus cases a year which come to us are not to be bandied. NO — if the 0«s Hoinc* Jewish commiailty doesn't care about financial aid to its needy. NO — if the services which we provide to other agencies are to be left unmet, I.e., Iowa Jewish Home, Ladies Day Out, Jewish Community Center. NO — if job placement for our people, personal counseling, marital couMcUng, family counseling are unimportant. NO — if legal and financial counseling ure unimportant. NO — if our elderly are to be left alone, unaided, and at the mercy of state and federal bureaucracy. NO — if immigrants from lands d persecution are not to be helped by us. YES — if we intend to fulfill our task which demands that we care about one another and work for a high level of life with dignity and honor Ibr all our people — sick, old, young, mentally and emotionally dependent — u well as the rich, well-balanced, and loved among u*.

Sabbsth Probl6ni Solved in Britaki LONDON, (JTA) - TTie Board of Deputies of BriUsh Jews welcomed the announcement by the government that the three-day work week in industry will henceforth be applied not by fixed days for fixed zones but by giving each factory an opportunity to choose which three days in the week they want to work. A spokesmah for the Board said: "This is one of the greatest importance to Jewish ovmera of factories and workshops in London and the London area, and some other areaa in the country, where the working days were Thursday, Friday and Saturday, so that Orthodox Jews could only work a dayand-a-half. They wiU now be able to work three full days without being involved with Friday afternoons and Saturdays." The new regulations are also helpful to Seventh Day Adventisls. Moslems and other groups. WHAT'SINANAMEf D)arban Jews, who have Uvcd on the island pf DJerba off the coast of Tunisia for nMre than 2,000 years, often name their children after various species of fish.
