jader: • • By David Landau JERUSALEM (JTA) — It Is not common to hear from a leading American Jewish giver and fundraiser a hard sell "pitch" (or allyah. That kinclof talk has traditionally been left to the "organized Zionist" leadership, while the United Jewish Appeal men have quietly gotten on with the Job of raising the funds to pay for whole areas of social and educational endeavor which the Israel government Itself simply cannot afford to cover. ""••-"•"-•- Bat "things are ciianging," sa id Stsnisy Slosne of New Jersey, one of the UJA's 15 national chairmen and a shrewd and sophisticated observer of the trends of Jewish history. It was Pinhas Saplr, who, as chairman of the World Zionist Organization, first called for the challenge of aliyah to be transferred from the sole "Jurisdiction of Israel" Into the hands and responsibility of Diaspora communities themselves. Some moves in that direction have already been made. But first, of course, the need for the change has to percolate through to theawarencssnnd conviction ol the diaspora leadership — and particularly of the American Jewish leaders, Sloan observed. This, he believes, is what is happening at this present time and he saw convincing evidence of It at the Jewish Agnecy Assembly held here last week. "We Americans came away with tKo conclusion that it's up to us to get involved In allyah...to exhort our fellow citizens.. .and to act In a practical way to turn exhortation Into realization. .," be said. The Zionist proponents of allyah, urging others to go but not showing the example themselves, have been positively detrimental' to allyah, Sloane said, referring to ths l.cadsrs of the various large American Zionist organizations.
O^MAHA — Leonard Goldstein, president of the Jewish Federation of Omaha, has announced with pleasure the receipt of two major endowment funds. The funds, the David- E. Beber Scholarship FungVand^ the Ruth Rlekes Richards Memorial Fund, were originally set up in October, 1975, under the auspices of the Milton S. and Corlnne N.
nough Their options are to hop over to a nearby neighborhood, moving piecemeal away from negative social influences, or to make the more difficult move to suburbia, where life Is more expensive. ; The tasfc facing American Jewry, Sloane stated with conviction, is to persuade these young urban Jewish families, many of them only loosely affiliated with organized Jewry, that they have a third option: Israel. ' Part of this persuasion must be in the form of material -arrangements — efficiently made and adequately explained - for their settlement and absorption in Israel, A moderate success r1say In the realm of two percent annually — would mean 20,000 American Jews to Israel each year. And that would be Just a start. • • ' , . - . < ; As throughout Jewish history, migration movements are •begun by the economically weak — but the more affluent quickly catch on and follow suit, Sloane observed. This was the case when mass Eastern European Jewish Immigration hit America. First It was the poor—but the more affluent quickly followed.

LONDON, (JTA) - The prevarication, evasions and -harassment by the Ugandan authorities in connection with the disappearance and probable murder of Mrs. Dora Wrvh th" missing Air France hijack hostage, "precipitated Britain's first diplomatic break with a Commonwealth country. The severance of diplomatic relations with the Ugandan government of President Idi Amln was announced to the House of Commons July 28 by Foreign Secretary Anthony Crosland. Reviewing the events surrounding the apparent murder of the 75-year-old widow who held dual British and Israeli citizenship, Crosland declared that "The events of recent weeks have again demonstrated that It is not, possible for our High Commission effectively to discharge Its normal duties" in Uganda. He said the High Commission had made repeated Inquiries as to the whereabouts of Mrs. Bloch who was last seen in a Kampala hospital a day after Israeli commandos rescued more than 100 hijack h o s t a g e s held by proPalestinian terrorists at Entebbe Airport. "They all got nowhere without Uganda's , cooperation and there Is no sign that this is forthcoming," Crosland sai'd. Crosland expressed hope that Ihe break would be only t e m p o r a r y . The m o v e , however, is overwhelmingly supported in Parliament and among the public. The breach means that Britain has given up any hope of ascertaining the fate of Mrs. Bloch from the Amin regime.

The Ambassador added: "I say |o you. In all can, dor, that if this (Entebbe) was needed to awaken world consciousness, then something is "rotten in human mentality.
