Tensions Are Felt Among French Jews By Edwin Eytan PARIS, (JTA) - Tensions within the French Jewish community have been simmering for a long time. The Ingredients consist of suppressed f r u s t r a t i o n s , intercommunal jealousies and an intense dissatisfaction with the government's anti-Israel policy. On the eve of the Six-Day War, when throngs of Parisian Jews went out into the streets singing Israeli songs and waving Israeli flags, the tensions reached near boiling point, but the lid remained on. It nearly burst in May as most Jewish communal organizations, including the most prestigious among them, traded mutual accusations, communiques and denials with the Jewish Agency's representative in France, Avi Primor, a 45-year-old Israeli career diplomat now on leave of absence from the Foreign Ministry. On May 7, Baron Guy de Rothschild, the head of the famous banking family and one of France's best known communal leaders, phoned Primor to ask for an Immediate appointment. When the two met, that afternoon, the 71year-old silver-haired banker, generally elegant and even suave in his approach, told him bluntly: "I have asked my son David (a member of the Jewish Agency's Board of Governors), to telephone (Agency chairman Leon) Dulzln In Jerusalem and ask for your recall." Rothschild blamed Primor -for the tone taken by most of the main speakers at the April 27 "12 Hours for Israel" mass demonstration. He said that the demonstration's organizer, a 32-year-old lawyer, Henri Hajdenberg, "had deviated from his course" and instead of attacking the French government's anti-Israel policy — "something we all would have supported" — rapped Jewish communal organizations and their leaders.
Hajdenberg, who heads a newly formed organization, "Jewish Renewal," had said in his opening address that the community leaders were shy, scared and timid in defending Israel's Interests and accused the "Rothschilds ol having taken us on the path of political bankruptcy." Some 150,000 people, according to the organizers, attended the meeting and most of them wildly cheered Hajdenbcrg's speech. He also said at the time that "the Jewish vote" could be decisive in "at least 4() electoral constituencies, 10 of them in Paris alone." He openly called for the creation of a Jewish lobby similar to that existing
In the United States. Rothschild told Primor that the meeting might have been useful but that finally it had mainly served to "break up the community's unity of purpose." He added, "You can rarely win a point for your cause by using insults and invectives." That same afternoon, Rothschild attended a meeting of the Fonds Social Juife Unlfe (FSJU) executive council. This body is France's social • welfare fund and also a halfpartner In the French United Jewish Appeal. Its president Is Guy de Rothschild. Most of the communal leaders present believed that Pri-

Provoked by the press, prodded by correspondents, often irritated by their own and t h e i r o p p o n e n t s statements, attacks and public communiques, organizations traded accusations for a couple of weeks. There was a clash of personalities between the elegant world-renowned banker and the Sabraborn former infantry officer twice wounded in the 1956 Suez War.

Organized French Jewry and its traditional leadership, have always been pro-Israel, have actively spoken out in Israel's favor, but have generally chosen to do so through direct c o n t a c t s with the government and In a relatively discreet manner. Many Jews also consider themselves first and foremost French and secondly Jewish. France's national tendencies have been, since the days of the French Revolution, towards a strong, centralized c o u n t r y . D e m o c r a c y in French tradition was inconiT patlble with regional tendencies such as had prevailed in the days of the monarchy. Nowadays, pluralism, in all its forms, is in fashion. France, for the first time in its history, is prepared to accept it in all its manifestations: political-, sCTUal and religious. Now, it seems to many, including Primor, is the Ideal time for French Jewry to openly express it differences and its own particular communal sympathies and tendencies. The difference between Primor and the community's traditional leaders is also, however, one of style. The intercommunal storm and the general press' interest have at least served to clearly demonstrate the community's basic unity in supporting Israel and coming out "into the open" to make known Us views and passionate links with the Jewish State. This is probably what will remain once the storm abates.

Despite the mea culpas issued by the British foreign ministry following "Death of a Princess," the most probing examination of Saudi life comes in a five-part London Times series by Timothy Slslcy. "There is increasing pessimism in Saudi Arabia over whether the ruling establishment can survive," Slsley reported. "The seeds of disintegration have been sown." Sisley pointed to corruption among key members of the royal family. As a result, ho claimed, "the respect commanded by the sons of King Abdul Aziz is waning." Attempts to create a democratizing appointed consultative council, a majlis al shura, have failed. In an accompanying editorial, The Times assured the Saudis of their good Intentions. It did not wish to sow "doubts In the West about Saudi Arabia's stability." The paper reminded the Saudis that their own censorship and xenophobia are responsible for a large portion of the "rumors and innuendoes." Saudi phobias and sensitivities notwithstanding, with the West so resolute in trading modern arms for oil, examination of Saudi Arabia's stability is certainly in order.

One of the Kirls will be chosen as Sweetheart at the annual Sweetheart Dance, which will be held in November. The four candidates, Elizabeth Epstein, Wendy Hoscnblatt. Debbie Somberg and Kim Platt, were chosen from among almost 100 girls in three Jewish youth groups. The girls were selected for their participation in Jewish youth group activities, enthusiasm and personality At 6 a.m. the girls were awakened to the singing of the Weizmann chapter song. The candidates, many still groggy from sleep, had no idea why thirty young men were serenading them in their bedrooms. However, after the confusion had passed, the girls were taken out to breakfast. The process of choosing four girls -as Sweetheart candidates, and then awakening them at six o'clock in the morning, was an experience the candidates and the members of Chaim Weizmann will nol soon forget. Weizmann wishes to thank Robert Epstein and Tom FelIman for supervising Ihe event (rom start to finish. Without the help of those two gentlemen, a Irouble-free caucus would not have been possible. Congratulations M.Z. V'oshanah, N'erTamidand Ediar, on an excellent Beau Dance The theme of the dance. "A Touch of Class." was an accurate description of the evening. The members of Weizmann
