Mrs. Arnold Weintraub and Mrs. Wayne Siegel of B'nai B'rith Women of Omaha were In attendance. Also in attendance from Omaha was Judy Handleman the District N'slali.

In celebration of the state of Israel's 30th anniversary, an international night banquet was held and featured the Hon. Arrtnon Rubinstein, member of the Knesset as keynote speaker. The Hon. Nahum Shamir, Consul General of Israel In the Midwest was honored. Outstanding B'nal B'rith Women of District Six were honored for accomplishments as volunteers.. B'nalr B'rith Women of Omaha received a Chat Certificate of Honor for having exceeded its financial responsibility.

hi Skokie, Alaska, or the hills of Virginia. The Mayor further said that all Americans suffered and felt some loss because of WW II which he now refers to as the war'against the Nazis. Abe Rosenbloom related by his personal experience the overriding influence of "luck" In determining who would live to tell what had happened to the majority of European Jewry. In a sense, the impact of Mr. Rosenbloom's statement was the conclusion that we are all survivors. Some of us having the luck to be In America, while others having had the luck to be one of those to make it through the Nazi barbarism. The many complex issues of the Holocaust experience were presented by five of the participants in the form xtf a play called "We Who Survive". Sharon Brodkey and Kevin Scudder played the parts of Rachel, an activist, and David, and pacifist, two 15 year old friends hiding In Nazi occupied Europe. Their family and friends had been murdered or carted off to extinction by the Nazis. Also in the cast were Mike Herman; Bob Chapman and Tammy Rubin...... Special- arrangements were made to open the Spertus Col-• lege Museum of Judaica on Saturday night for the Omaha group. David Weinstein, president of the College, gave a tour of the museum's many unique collections including the Zell Holocaust exhibit and the YIVO photography collection of 19th and 20th century Polish Jewry called, "Image Before My Eyes". (The two and one-half hours alloted was not enough for the group to ask all their questions. They were asked to leave at midnight.) In evaluating the weekend, the participants felt that they had to carry the message back and to relate their experience to others. "Not only do we want to, but now we are able to talk with others about the situation," said Mike Herman. The entire group felt that the trip changed an abstract Idea Into a Concrete concept. If It can happen In Skokie, a town where there are McDonalds and people who look and sound like us, then it can Happen here. "We came because ' we care," said Syndey Rubin. "This is a beginning, now It Is up to us to do something because of our caring," said Tammy Rubin. As a follow up project, the group decided to do a survey on Holocaust awareness of the general population of Omaha. The participants included: Sharon B r o d k e y r E f r e m Bromberg, Hillel Bromberg, Emma Bursztyn, MaryiBucszr. tyn, Bob Chapman, Jonathan Duitch, Bruce Goldberg, Mike 'Herman, Jenny Karpen, Bob iLutz, Syndey Rubin, Tammy Rubin, and Kevin Scudder.

Old Timer's Review By Art Grossman Omaha City Prosecutor Gary Bucchino has addressed the Old Timers twice during its five and a half years of existence. He initially spoke at the club's 18th meeting, in 1973, when the new organization had approximately two minyans of members attending. Mr. Bucchino spoke a second time at the club's 118th meeting, this May 16, with 11 minyans plus two members in attendance. I cannot conceive any members sat in awe of Mr. Bucchino, fearing being tossed into, the slammer, but we did sit in awe of the monumental work load the city's prosecuting office handles during the course of a year. With a staff of only eight assistants Mr. Bucchino handles over 70,006 cases per year. Most of these involve routine traffic Infractions but at least 10,000 do necessitate appearances before a judge and jury.

Saudis. To believe such naivete is also to forget that it was the Saudis who instigated and financed the 1973-Mldeast war against the Israelis and sided with the Germans in World War I and II. But then how can Fred Dutton, Clark Clifford and Pat Caddeli, employed as Saudi lobbyists and close to the President, be so committed to the Saudis knowing all of the above — along with former Senator Fulbrlght, former Secretary Rogers and other Saudi agents? Oil? Partly. Money? Possibly. Power? Probably. And some anti-Jewish feelings. The question Is — did It enhance or diminish chances for a Middle East peace treaty? So I got out my Nelly Sachs and started reading: "So briefly delivered up Is humankind... A sea of loneliness stands silently beside us Where we knock." Mrs. Doris'Bosinsky To The Editor: '" As co-chairman of the Yom Ha'Atzmaut committee, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended our Saturday night and Sunday program. All of you helped to make this one of the Jewish Federation's and the Jewish Community Center's most succesful events. Our committee began planning this program some eight months ago. Much discussion,

investigation and hard work went Into making Yom Ha'Atzmaut a success. My1 wannest and sincere thanks go to my sub-committee chairmen: Gloria Wagner, Havdalah; Marshall Lewis; dance; Marilyn Warren, Saturday night's refreshments; Steve Riekes, fireworks; Dr. Norm Sheldon, carnival; Nurit Gafnl, food (Sunday); and Arlene Goodman, public!-' ty. Also many thanks to Jan Perelman and Judi Rosenblatt for the beautiful art displays and Bob Lovett and his Boy Scout Troop for the sensational Mogen David on the front of the Center. Last but not least, Herman Rubin and Conrad Roller for their endless help and guidance. Without these people we could not have expe-' rienced such a memorable weekend. Randi Katelman To the Editor: What can I tell my children, or my friends here in Omaha, or In other dtles.'or even in Israel? After months of Investigation and then a Beth Din, chosen by, and acceptable, to all parties, I still see and hear problems about the Kashrut of Shukert's Meat Market. The Beth Din said " . . . that Rabbi Isaac Nadoff was entirely Justified on the basis of sufficient evidence that a violation of Kashrut had taken place, in the withdrawal of Kashrut supervision of Shu-

kert's establishment." Further, the Beth Din ruled that Shukert Meats, Inc. could not be granted Kashrut supervision until it compiled with the supervisory conditions, and it was further stated that "no. butcher will be allowed to be a purveyor of Kosher and nonKosher meat." I The advertising that has; been placed in The Jewlshj Press uses the names of approved kosher products along side ads for, fresh meat which is not kosher according to the Beth Din. The advertising con-' tains the six-pointed Star of David, which is the traditional symbol of a kosher market, t am surprised that The Jewish Press permits this confusion to exist. What kind of ending will this story have? The community must recognize the place of rabbinic authority In matters of Kashrut. Irving Shapiro M.D. Editor's note: The Press committee has discussed the use of the Mogen David in advertising and has concluded that, hi Omaha, the Star of David does not imply observance of kashrut; therefore, any of our advertisers Is free to use It as an illustration. Furthermore, each Issue of the Jewish Press carries the disclaimer that-the publication is not responsible for the kashrut of any product or establishment.
