Beyond the violent reaction of some survivors is the violence threatened by American born Jews, who are willing to do batUe with a • small group of self-styled Nazis. These can number in the thousands and have massed support in Skokie from different parts of the country. Often violent reactions by American born Jews relates to the connection that each Jew feels with the Holocaust. This relationship will undoubtedly continue for centuries.
There are many reactions by Jews in America. They are often tempered by the social and educational level of the Jewish community as well ad passionate 'defense by the J e w i s h c o m m u n i t y of American values of Justice - under law, Violent reactions are peripheral to the mainstream of the Jewish community, though understandable. The threat of violence by sonje The Irony is that the Nazi concentration camp survivors is also understandable, given group in Chicago, the National their experiences whlcfe ,BO Socialist Party of America led ' one else can fully com- by Frank Collins, Is small and pnhendi perhaps not even powerless and is able to evoke a violent confrontation by the tbeir children.

The Nazis play upon, destabilizing social forces but' they alone cannot tip the b a l a n c e toward s o c i a l upheaval, I suggest that because the JewiBh world is being assaulted on many sides ~by problems that It cannot readily resolve — Israel, Soviet Jewry, Intermarriage, Jewish illiteracy, etc., segments of the Jewish community have focused on that which is easily Identifiable as anti-Jewish and which is directly and visibly assaulting the Jewish community—the Nazis.

For decades, American Jews were afraid that when this question was raised, they would fall short of what they felt they should have done. Ths constant presence of survivors has' reenforced this guilt feeling.

Leonard Goldstein (center) presented Blchard Zacharla and Ruth Errnun with the Justin Greenberg Memorial Young Leadership Award at the recent meeting of the Omaha Jewish Federation. The award Is given to those who have demonstrated outstanding leadership as a model for young people In the Jewish Community.
In a community like Skokie, which Is over half Jewish and Ttias a significant number of survivors, the still festering wound of. pasl experiences acts as a raw nerve that ' vibrates when struck by Jewish communal problems. How much more response can be expected when a new Hainan raises primordial fears of total extermination? (Continued on Page 8)

By Stu Chapman Several Omaha residents selected by Senator Edward Zorlnsky to attend briefings in Washington D.C. on •• the Panama Canal Treaties returned late last week from the Capitol after meeting with the President, members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and representatives of the State Department. Those attending met with Ambassador Sol Llnowitz, Chief Negotiator Of the Panama Canal Treaties, General Bernard Rogers and General John Stetson of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, National Security Advisor Zblgnlew iBrzezlnski and with President Carter. According to Jack Katz, one of the members of the delegation, the briefings consisted of four parts. Ambassador Llnowitz gave an "overview" of the history, and' the basic language of the old treaty; Generals Rogers and Stetson outlined the defense posture presented by the new treaties; National Security Advisor Brzezinskl presented morql arguments in support of the treaties and President Carter gave a general overview of the i new treaties along with answering any questions the delegation had regarding the treaties. . Many of those who were In attendance praised Senator
Zorlnsky and President Carter for arranging the meeting between officials, and "ordinary .citizens." ' Gerald Hoberman, a participant in the Treaty briefings, remarked that "I felt very lortunate to be in the White House and to be around those officials who briefed us." Rabbi Sidney Brooks,' who also attended, viewed the briefings as a chance to gain more information on the issue of the treaties. He noted that "negativism (on the treaty Issue) was more visible . . . I had read more against the issue than for it." Had the briefings changed anyone's mind? E l l i o t Hechtman, a delegate attending the briefings stated that those Nebraskans who were against the Canal Treaties would not ask questions on the Treaties themselves and felt "that very few opinions were changed there.". T h o s e who w e n t t o Washington for the Canal briefings, - found It to be a memorable, Knot historic, occasion and were proud to have attended. ' Rabbi Brooks described the Washington briefings a s " , . . An honor and privilege of citizenship that I have not had before."

Open Letter to the Omaha Jewish Community In view of the inquiries the Jewish Federation has received regarding the room arrangements for the Beth Din, the Jewish Court of Law, the Federation offers the following explanation: • The selection of the room, the seating and other arrangements were In strict accordance to the orders of the court and agreed to in advance by both parties. The court selected the social hall rather than the larger auditorium because the Beth Din did not want the hearings to lose their seriousness and dignity which might not have been' possible in a larger room. The social hall offered the most court like atmosphere. Further, because of the number of persons, such as court officials, attorneys, rabbis, numerous witnesses and other necessary persons, there was limited seating for members of the Jewish public. Seating for observers,. therefore, was put on a first come, first-seated basis. THESE RULES WERE NO DIFFERENT THAN THOSE IN ANY OTHER COURT Because of the tremendous turn out on Monday, some ' people were unfortunately turned away, but many who "waited It out" did eventually get seats. To those who did not wait we can only say that the Federation followed the Instructions of the Beth Din. ' We regret that some who wanted to observe were Inconvenienced, however, strict observance of the rules of the Beth Din was mandatory hi order that the hearings could be conducted with dignity. ~ • • We are grateful for the cooperation of this community in our effort touring this controversial matter to a just conclusion, and for the support of the Federation board in votingthefiiauo to bfingUieBetii Din to Omaha.

HAIFA — A plan to harness the waters of the Euphrates River for the mutual interests of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and other countries of the Middle East, has been proposed by a distinguished engineer, prominent in Technion affairs. The project, vast in its engineering and political im- plications, would be a boon to millions of people and could transform the entire Middle East, according to its author. The above proposal might sound like an outgrowth of the recent Sadat-Begin developments. As a matter of fact, the plan was put into print in 1945 by Mr. Lazarus White, a prominent American engineer and bead of the American Technion Society. It was published In the 1945 edition of the' Technion Yearbook, together with maps. Mr. White drew from the experience of the Los Angeles tot*, which receives its waters from the Colorado River below the Grand Canyon, 250 miles away. The construction of Boulder Dam, and ancillary

waterway for cheap transportation from and Into the vast interiors of the country. The engineering feat, as indicated, already had its parallels In the world. The distance from the Syrian dam to the Israel border would be about 250 miles, with another ISO miles of water line running south within Israel and providing water and power for Samaria and Judea, as well as for the Sharon pi ain and the Negev. Lazarus White presented his plan 33 years ago. We leave it to the engineers to pass judgment on the technological aspects of the proposal. As for the political difficulties, perhaps we ought not be too hasty In rejecting the plan as fantasy. Only six months ago, would any realist have thought it possible that Sadat .would address the Knesset In Jerusalem, and be received by the Israel populace waving Egyptian flags? We ought not close any door, which may ultimately lead to the new ERA. ' . ;

OMAHA GALLERY WEST Beginning Monday, March 13, at Omaha Gallery West, U.N.O. Fine Arts Major, Rhonda Rung will exhibit a series of her drawings based upon the theme of the Holocaust. These sensitive drawings reflect the personal views of a young woman of the 1970's, who is deeply committed to making others remember the catastrophic events which took, place in the 30's and 40's. Miss Rung describes her work: "These drawings are about men, women, and • children, who strived to keep life intact. They . had the will to maintain human dignity and preserve the spark of life under unimaginable conditions of physical and mental suffering and degradation. I have drawn of these intense experiences not to harrow you, but to strengthen y o u . . . now you may decide if you are justified in despairing, as I am,'with deepest sympathy. 1 feel it our duty to those martyred six million to preserve and cultivate our sense of horror and hand it down, so the world will never forget."' According to Hedy Gershman, Art Committee Chairman, "The committee feels that it is the Jewish Community's responsibility to. foster public awareness of Jewish concerns through unusual Art expressions." • m addition to the Holocaust exhibit, the Art Committee Is co-sponsoring a second exhibit with the Committee for Soviet Jewry next month.

Academic Betrayal One ol the key c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s of the American Jewish community is its heavy investment in the academic world. Partially to, effectuate American valves, and for desired upward. mobility, Jews and others struggled to crack the quota at. ' universities. The fact that this; was accomplished, is seen by' American Jews as an af finna-'' tion of their investment in, America. j Recently a NorUlwestem University professor claimed, the Holocaust never occurred.: When the university did not immediately dissociate itself; from the substance of the remarks, the Jewish com-, munity felt a sense of betrayal by the ideals they had-strived to uphold. Ail this.occurred during a tune then the prevailing opinion in the Jewish community was one of concern about the Jewish condition, here and abroad. This also contributed to a latent desire for a violent response on the part of a small but vocal group when the Nazis decided to enter Skokle.
