World Awaits Israel's Begin Government Editor's Note: The Jewish Telegraphic Agency's report on the Israeli elections was not available to us at press time • because of our early deadline for Shavuot. We thank Rabbi Kenneth Bromberg of Beth Ei Synagogue for letting us use an excerpt from his sermon to bring to you a local view of the election.

which everyone concerned—including American Jews—must become accustomed. Who knows? It is at least possible that the Arabs may come to terras quicker with a Begin than with someone softer and more accommodating—they've had 30 years to do that. "Of one thing I am fairly certain—and this grows historically out of Zionist Revisionism—The Begin government will be far more likely than its predecessors to

go it alone—far more likely to defy the U.S.—far more likely to accept the consequences of Israel's ' strength—far less likely to see itself as some sort' o! international welfare case—subsidized, armed, indeed guaranteed, by one or more outside powers—far less likely to move over—far less likely to settle for less. "This is the new Ideological element represented by the Likud victory. What we do not know is who will blink first?

On Survival The newly-formed World Confederation of Jewish Community Centers has focused on the survival of the Jewish people in a traditional, cultural way of life as a major concern. "We now are charged with the responsibility to develop Centers as Jewish Centers and not. Centers for Jews," said Phil Cofman, executive director of the JCC. Cofman was one of the 30J member American contingent which participated recently In the First World Conference. He described the Conference as a realistic opportunity to meet with colleagues and counterparts from the free world to examine some of the problems and issues confronting Jewish Community Centers. His group met with top Israeli leaders including the President of the State, the Mayor of Jerusalem, the former Chief Rabbi of Israel's Defense Force and Rabbi David Hartman, of Hebrew University. ~ One of the things we gained, said Cofman, was, the opportunity to learn of the commonalities we share In our work and efforts. ' — - "In some cases, the methodology may be different, but the objectives are basically the same." (Continued on Page 4)

"Nazi Drawings''

Israel Aids Arab Nation

"The Nazi Drawings", a series of 33 life size drawings done in pencil and wash by Professor Mauriclo Lasonsky, of the University of Iowa, will be on display at Crelghton University Art Gallery, from June 15 to July 15.r .According to John Theln, assiafnnt professor of Ftac Arts at Crelghton, and a former student of Lasansky's, the artist also will conduct two workshops and a public lecture. Sponsored by the Jesuit Institute for the Arts with the support of the Nebraska Arts Council and Crelghton, the workshops will be held July C-8. Information may be obtained from the Rev. Don Doll, S.J. at (402) 449-2509. Professor Lasansky will speak July 6 at 8 p.m. in Uie Crcighton University Walsh Lecture Hall. A reception for the artist will take place July 7 at 8 p.m. Professor Lasansky describes the drawings: "Dignity is not a symbol bestowed on man, nor docs the word Itself possess force. Man's dignity is^a force and the only modus Vivendi by which man and his history survive. Wben mid-twentieth century Germany did not let man live and die with this right, man became an animal. No matter how technologically advanced or sophisticated, when a man negates this divine right he not only becomes self-destructive, but castrates his history and poison* our future. This is what The Nazi Drawings are about."

He refused to name the country. According to reliable sources, a senior delegation from that , country visited Israel secretly two weeks ago as Uzan's guest. They toured various agricultural centers in the Minister's car. He dispensed with his official driver on that occasion, the sources said. . They said the visitors were Impressed with Israel's progress.

way saw Jerusalem as a city of b e a u t i f u l c h u r c h e s decorated with menorahs and Stars of David. A group of first grade school children in a small West German village sent a joint drawing with an explanation stating: "We imagine the city of peace as a place where people walk with flowers, where there are no fights and nobody kills animals." Most of the young artists are not Jewish.

Scroll Thefts JERUSALEM (JTA)-More than 200 Torah scrolls valued at over $2.5 million were stolen from synagogues all over Israel last year, police reported. . Only a few have been;, recovered. Police said many of the scrolls were smuggled overseas. There is also a large demand for them In Israel since the Yom Kippur War because ramifies want to commemorate a fallen son with a Torah scroll. The average price of a scroll on the open market is $5000. Police said they were working with the Religious Affairs Ministry to provide belter security for synagogues.

The United States is responsible for half the world's trade in arms; the Soviet Union for a third. Next come the British and French, with above five percent of the market each, followed in recent years by the Italians, the Swedes, the West Germans and the Israelis.

Doctor Problem JERUSALEM (ZINS)-The Minister of Health declared in the Knesset that Israel has a surplus of doctors. He stressed that the needs of the country are entirely covered by the local medical schools, which graduate some 400 doctors yearly. In addition.to the graduates there are also doctors who immigrate to Israel every year. It is because of the surplus of doctors, reports the Minister, that Israel is planning to set up special examinations for immigrating physicians and not all will be permitted to practice even if they have diplomas. Such a law. If it Is passed, will hurt the chances ol Israeli doctors who studied medicine in foreign universities. Their number in Italy alone is nearingover2,000.

The two met and carresponded for more than IS years. No one, except for a few close friends of Ben Gurion, ever suspected the relationship. Many separations marked the couple's idyll. It was "tragic" that only the channel separated them—"and yet we are as far apart as If we lived as the North and South Poles," Miss May wrote Ben Gurion when he was in exile in Paris in 1946. She later worked at the Israeli Embassy in London and visited Israel several times. They met for the last time In 1966. She died two years later.

"In Argentina, they have already moved on to the formation of terror commandos, striking synagogues, Jewish community c e n t e r s and Jewish cemeteries. In South-Africa, they foment the conflict between Blacks and whites. . . " He said that in the U.S. and Canada "the several dozens of small organizations are not dangerous for these big democracies themselves but they harm the American image abroad because neo-Nazi and neo-Fasclst groups all over the world receive this dirty propaganda from their counterparts in the States and pass it on as American propaganda." Rep. Elizabeth Holtzman (D.NY), who spoke at the session honoring Wlesenthal,

called on the House Subcommittee on Immigration to Investigate why the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) has failed to deal with cases of Nazi war criminals living in the U.S. She demanded that the subcommittee find out why these individuals were permitted to enter the country and to become American citizens. Speaking last week in Chicago to 150 members of the Jewish United Fund (JUF) social welfare agencies' division at a fund-raising meeting in the Jewish Federation building, Wiesenthal described himself as "a survivor who feels compelled to do my duty." He noted, "Young people today cannot comprehend the horror of the Nazis. For them It Is something as impersonal as a history book."

Hey Good Buddy — if erecting an antenna,

avoid power lines. . Serious accidents can occur when an antenna or any metal object contacts overhead power lines. That's why OPPD is urging CB operators who are building or planning a base unit operated-from their home to be extremely careful. Building these towers under near power lines can be dangerous and even fatal. * If you are putting up a tower or antenna, observe these rules: 1. llocate overhead power lines — every wire should be considered dangerous — remember they are not insulated.

2. Make sure there's more than enough clearance for carrying, raising or lowering the tower. Caution — It's easy to misjudge this clearance. 3. Erect the antenna or tower far enough away so that it will not hit any power line if it falls.

In a recent Issue, we complained that TV Station KPIX in San Francisco and the Washington Post had used Interviews with the Ku faux Klan and the Hanafis reviving libels against the Jewish people without comment or disavowal. Tbe Washington Post, on April 29, published a perceptive article by Bernard S. White, President of the Jewish Community Council of Greater Washington, discussing' "the responsibility that the media incur in allowing hate-mongers to propagate their prejudices and bigotry in print and over the air waves" and "the failure of leaders in our city to take an active role in combatlngjhese prejudices." The article declared that such misdirected hatred "should not appear to be sanctioned or excused by community spokesmen or by reporters and editors" and that the media do have a responsibility "for the overall effect their pronouncements will have on the community.. , "The most venomous of attacks are printed in newspapers, broadcast on radio and television. The response is a deadening, threatening silence. Media dutifully report the hatred, but where are the editorial voices combating it with truth and reason? Where is the family of man reaching out to help and understand one another's hurts and needs? ;i^l¥te?%fel^ i , g and community leaders, calling for an end to hatred...? 'The only real hope to dispel the growth of hatred among our citizens is through the presentation of truth."

In their simple laboratories they achieved miracles of medical science. Behind the grimy walls and under the pale lights of tbe 19th century building they lit a flame which sparked love and tender care. Will all this survive in the stainless steel splendor of the new building?" The entire staff, physicians, nurses, maintenance workers, are all aware of the danger. It is discussed many times', I was assured. For them Shaare Zedek is not a structure but a philosophy of love and mercy and human kindness. They pledge that not the size of the building, but the need of the smallest, - weakest, most helpless patient must be at the center of their attention. Theirs Is a priceless and proud tradition.' I believe them, and I am confident their friends overseas will provide the new building and equipment and thus give them greater opportunities for saintly service. .

BarMitzvah The Bar Mitzvah of Mark Robert Pidgeon, son of Shirley and Harold Pttgeon, will be celebrated on Shabbat morning, June 11, 9:30 a.m. at Tifereth Israel Synagogue. A kiddish luncheon will follow services. The Pidgeon family extends a cordial invitation to the entire community to Join them in celebrating their slm-, cba. No personal invitations are being sent.

This is the tale of one, Vladimir Boykowsky, ~ arrested by the Soviets and later released on a prisoner exchange for a communist leader In Chile. "I see a symbolic significance," said Boykowsky, "in the fact that 1 left the U.S.S.R., and now live in America, and that I had been locked in handcuffs bearingi the inscription 'made in UieU.S.A.' . "The same capitalist product Is used all over the Soviet Union. Furthermore," the exprlsoner continued, "even the electronic bugging devices employed against 'enemies' of the regime are "also Imports from the capitalist world."
