Arms Sale Protest Urged

By Barry Morrison Director, ADL/CRC Al Crounsc, chairman of the ADL/CRCommittec urges members of the Omaha community to write President Reagan and Secretary of State Haig protesting the sale of arms to Saudi Arabia. Major national Jewish organizational representatives have concurred that the time to protest the sale Is now. Addresses of the President and Secretary of State are given at the end of the article. Arguments against the sale follow. For assistance or Information, call the ADL/CRC office (333-1303).

The Reagan adminstration has signalled Its intent to provide the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with some of the most sophisticated military equipment In the U. S. arsenal. A review of several points should convey the ill-advisability of this undertaking.

There is no sound military rationale for the sale of such hardware (K-15 fighter jet equipment, AWACs, etc.). Saudi Arabia Is

The only likely target Is Israel. Israel could be attacked by Saudi Arabia directly or by a state friendly to the Kingdom to which the armaments are transferred.

Israel, for Its part, can certainly be expected to react to the sale by seeking to add equipment to its own arsenal. The escalating arms race which would ensue poses obvious dangers, dangers compounded by the general volatility of the Middle East.

Israel, our long-standing and proven ally, would be at a disadvantage in this race since It simply cannot afford the financial burden (with Its 150 per cent annual inflation rate) exacted by this challenge.

War Criminal Prosecutor Speaksfor Yom HaShoah "Mr. Ohlcndorf, what happened to the Jewish children. ..?"

"According to orders they were to be killed Just like their parents," said defendant Otto Ohlendort, chief of Elnsatzgriippen, at the Nuremberg trials.

The above was excerpted from the official transcripts

by Drexel A. Sprecher, an American prosecutor at the Trials of the War Criminals In Nuremberg, Germany, following World War II. Mr. Sprecher Is guest speaker at the Yom HaShoah Memorial Service at Beth Israel Synagogue on Sunday, May 3, at2:30p.m.

Through use of quotes taken directly from the testimoney of defendants and defense witnesses such as Rudolf Hoess, commandant of Auschwitz Concentration Camp, Mr. Sprecher will attack the arguments of the "revisionists.''

The "revisionists" are those promoting the concept that the Holocaust is a myth. Among those gaining considerable public attention is Dr. Arthur R. Butz, author of the book, "The Hoax of the Twentieth Century."

Mr. Sprecher, a graduate of Harvard Law School, is a resident of Chevy Chase, Md. In .

addition to serving as a prosecutor, he was also editor-inchief of 15 official volumes on "Trials of War Criminals Before the Nuremberg Military Tribunals."

Following his talk will be a memorial service for the Holocaust victims. Participants will be Rabbis Sidney Brooks, Kenneth Bromberg and Barry Welnsteln; Cantors Leo Fettman, Harold Firestone and Robert Shapiro, and Holocaust Survivors from Beth El, Israel and Temple Israel.

Under the chairmanship of Alvin Ross, the Yom HaShoah (Day of Rememberance) weekend under sponsorship of the Jewish Cultural Arts Council Includes a youth gathering led by Rabbi Allan Gonsher at Beth El on Saturday at 8:40 p.m.

"The evening will be an emotional, educational and religious interpretation of the Holocaust," "Visual aids, guest speakers, value clarification exercises, discussion groups, a movie and a play put on by teens are the vehicles which will be used In this unique presentation of Holocaust material."

Each religious school will also hold its own commemoration programs. In addition all .students will be given a me-

"One cannot say enough about the powerful and enduring value of the observance of Yom HaShoah...

Governor Signs Bill For Remembrance Week Governor Charles Thone designated the week of April 26 through May 2 as Days of Remembrance of the Victims of the Holocaust.

The Governor recently participated in a candle lighting ceremony and signed a proclamation in memory of the victims of the Holocaust before a group of Jewish community representatives.

Yale Gotsdlner, president of the Lincoln Jewish Community Federation and leader of the delegation, pointed out that an Act of Congress has set aside April 30 as a day In which Americans are to take part in an International commemoration. Remembered are the six million Jews murdered In the Nazi Holocaust as part of a systematic program of genocide, as well as millions of other people who suffered as victims of Nazism.

President Reagan has taken note of the Days of Remembrance by remarking: "Every American must be made aware that such a horror, almost beyond the scope of human comprehension, took place in our times."

Churches/synagogues, civic

groups, and educational institutions throughout the country are conducting commemorative programs. In Omaha, a trl-campus seminar took place featuring testimony by survivors, showing of documentary films, and panel discussions.

Also in Omaha, a memorial service for Holocaust victims has been scheduled at the Jewish Community Center. In Lincoln, Dr. Franklin Littel spoke before an audience at the South Street Temple; he also addressed students at Nebraska Wesleyan University.

How can it ever be described? How do you ever measure magnitude of such an occurrence! How do you talk about it without demeaning the memory of the 6,000,000?

This Sunday, for ninety minutes, Omaha Jewry is invited to come together to memorialize these 6,000,000 lives. We call it "Yom HaShoah", "Holocaust Day". One day a year formally set aside to remember — and to be united together to be sure it can never happen again.

Ninety minutes. . can we and our children . . yes, our children. . .stop for only ninety minutes to come together to hear a knowledgeable speaker and recite a memorial prayer? Is it not essential to take this (measurable) time to pause and reflect on this immeasurable moment in history?

Deaf Teenagers to Join USY Israel Pilgrimage NEW YORK - In what Is rightly defined as a "special" but not "different" group, nearly 35 young people who are deaf will participate for the first time in a pilgrimage to Israel and the group organizing the program Is the Unit- • cd Synagogue Youth Israel Pilgrimage.

Special "yes," because two experts In "signing" (communicating with the deaf) will be along on the pilgrimage; different, "no," because the deaf pilgrimage will follow the regular Itinerary of the USY Is-

rael Pilgrimage.

In making the announcement, Rabbi Paul Freedman, director of the Department of Youth Activities of the United Synagogue, said the deaf USY Pilgrims will take part in the dally study program of Pilgrimage, which includes discussions on prayer, the history and geography of Israel and Jewish philosophy.

They will also participate In a World Congress of Jewish Deaf being held in Jerusalem during the first week in August.

Protest Urged (Continued from Page 1) possibility of Internal strife in Saudi Arabia already regarded as shaky? (Witness the takeover of the Grand Mosque in Mecca.)

Certainly not. The obvious analogy that comes to mind is the Shah's Iran. What is to prevent America's most valuable and technologically advanced arms from being compromised by somehow falling into Soviet hands?

What about other American interests? Can we count on more favorable production and pricing patterns or support of U. S. Mideast peace initiatives from "moderate" Saudi Arabia for providing the hardware? We were not following the sale of F15's in 1978; why should conditions change this time around?

What of our reputation and good word? Specific assurances were given by President Carter on behalf of the U. S. that additional military equipment to enchancc the F-15 offensive capabilities would not be provided. Our reputation has already suffered In other parts of the world for what has been perceived as our reneging on commitments.

United Synagogue Youth — the congregational arm of the Conservative Movement of Judaism, sponsors the USY Israel Summer Pilgrimage.

USY sends more teenagers to Israel In the summer than any other Jewish youth organization In North America. This summer, between 650 and 700 teenagers are expected to register. Working on communicating with the deaf during the Pilgrimage will be Rabbi Daniel Grossman of Staten Island and Ms. Fran Atlas of New York City. They will be part of the group staff. Both Rabbi Grossman and Ms, Atlas have worked with Jewish deaf teenagers on an informal basis for many years.

During the Pilgrimage of the United Synagogue Youth, the group will tour Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Haifa, Safed, Becrsheva and the Jordan Valley.

Based in Jerusalem, the USYers will also spend time In field schools of Nlr Etzion, Kfar Batya and Kfar Etzion.

They will participate in the outstanding "Tzedaka Program," where the Pilgrims visit institutions such as Yad L'Kashlsh (life-line for the old) and bring Shabbat flowers to hospital patients, a highlight of the USY Pilgrimage.

Pass the Peas Don't be so complacent!

If you are unaware of the plight of world Jewry, you are not reading the newspapers, nor watching television.

If you are unaware of the growth of anti-Semitism throughout the world, you are closing your eyes and muffling your ears.

The news is not good. Russia is clamping its jaws tightly on its Jewish citizens. France openly courts Arab oil along with the PLO, and pushes for the almighty dollar in arms sales and nuclear expertise to the Arab states.

Syria refuses to let Jewish women emigrate so they are forced to convert to be able to marry. Although many thousands of Jews have left Iran, who knows what's happening to those left behind.

Jews in Ethiopia are dropping dead from starvation, and conditions elsewhere in the world are similarly bleak.

Don't think that just Israel is having problems.

Tsuris for Jews is rampant throughout the world.

And don't think that problems don't exist in America. An armed Jewish patrol is now protecting synagogues and other institutions in Long Island, New York.

Nazi War Criminals Pursued

By Jody Newman Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Rememberance Day, will be celebrated on May 1 of this year — just two months after the Supreme Court's decision to revoke Nazi War Criminal Feodore Federeako's fraudulently obtained U.S. citizenship.

According to ADL National Director Nathan Perimutter, many of the people alleged to have performed Nazi War atrocities in World War II "may have received visas and in some cases U.S. citizenship under conditions of fraud and deceit."

Mr. Perimutter urged Attorney General William French Smith to continue the commitment of his predecessor, Benjamin Civilleti, to take all necessary actions In the prosecution of 18 cases now before the courts and the investigation of 260 other cases.

During the first week of April, President Reagan received a letter signed by 12 senators urging him not to decrease funds for the Justice Department's Office of Special Investigation (OSI) which serves the primary purpose of denaturalizatlon and deportation of Nazi War criminals currently residing In America.

The 1982 proposed budget would cut OSI funding from 2.6 million to 2.4 million and would reduce the professional staff ten percent.

A petition to support OSI and to assure that the unit's finances in the 1982 budget be allocated was signed by 90 mem* bers of Congress.

At this time, a few teams of OSI prosecutors are taking video taped testimonies for use in U.S. courts in the Soviet Union, Poland and the Baltic States of Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania.

This important effort must be vigorously supported. Praising "the tangible results" achieved by the Office of Investigation, Mr. Perimutter declared: "The vigor of the Department's recent past efforts must be maintained If we are to establish, with unmistakable conviction, that participants in history's darkest crime are not to be given gratuitous sanctuary in America."

Efforts within the Omaha community have Involved the signIng of proclamations by the governor and the mayor and a recent seminar on Holocaust studies held at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, The College of Saint Mary and Crelghton University in which Sam and Magda Fried Discussed their personal experiences during the time of the Holocaust.

Yom HaShoah services for the Jewish community will be held May 3.

Interested community members are urged to write their legislators in support of the Office of Special Investigations and to maintain their budget. More information is available from the ADL office.

Hungarian Jewry Today The Temple of Heroes was built by the Jewish community after WWI In honor of the 10,000 Jews who died fighting for Hungary.

By Nate Freedman BUDAPEST: A visitor to Hungary quickly gains the impression that this is a Jewish community which Is proud of its history and devoted to its future.

One important reason is that, for an Eastern European nation, Hungary has a unique attitude toward organized religion and, as a result, Jewish institutions have flourished.

The Jewish community of Hungary is well-organized and its affairs are the responsibility of the Central Board of Hungarian Jews which, through the State Office for Church Affairs, is the official spokesman for the community.

Hungary's Jews are particularly proud of their Theological Seminary which is training Rabbis who will assume pulpits in the Soviet Union, Bulgaria,

Over 600,000 were killed during the Holocaust and there are numerous reminders of this terrible time for the Jews of Eastern Europe. Many of those who died in the Ghetto built by the Nazis for the Jews of Budapest are buried in the courtyard of the Dohany Street Synagogue, the largest in the world.

Only a German decision to withdraw from Budapest and battle the Red Army at another site saved

Dr. Stephanie Vadacs, a resident at the 200-bed Jewish Hospital, treats an 82-year-old patient.

The central kosher kl tchen turns out over 250,000 meals a year, distributed at ten depots such as thlsone. â&#x20AC;˘

The JDC budget for Hungary in 1981 Is $1,100,000.

Of this amount, slightly more than half ($570,000) is for individual welfare in cash and kind. Almost twenty percent ($200,000) is for support of a kosher kitchen. The balance is for aid to institutions for the elderly, hospital and health service supplies, the purchase of religious supplies and program management.

JDC programs have enabled the community to build a new kosher kitchen which is under construction and scheduled for dedication this Fall. The kitchen provides 250,000 hot kosher meals a year. JDC help has increased bed occupancy In old age homes by 20 percent and has enabled the community to undertake the restoration of what many consider to be the most beautiful syna-

gogue in the world, the Szeged Synagogue. There are 117 active synagogues in Hungary today, thirty of them in Budapest.

Hungarian Jews point with pride to the fact that their museum (adjacent to the Dohany Synagogue and built on the site of the birthplace of Theodor Herzl) holds Jewish tombstones that date from Roman times, showing that there were Jews in Hungary even before the settlement there of the Magyar tribes.

They also note that Hungary's early coinage carries Hebrew symbols showing that it was minted

by Jews under license to The Crown. They feel there are no barriers to their advancement and that Jews are well represented in the Arts and the Professions.

The Karily Goldmark Choir, named after a Jewish composer of the 1800's, sings a Hungarian, Yiddish and Hebrew repertoire.

A Jewish Art Collection

By Murray Frost The walls o( the gallery al the Jewish Community Center are brightly decorated with works of Israeli artists. The styles range from the stark black and white woodcuts of Jacob Steinhanit. to a colorful painting by Keuvin Kubin and to Vaacov Agam's abstract art that changes as you walk past Those- three artists wen specifically mentioned, nut be cause of the diversity of then styles, but rather hecaiiM they are already in my person al collection More surprising perhaps, is (he fact th.it m> A^ani ens' Ics*. th.m SJ m\ Stemhardt about i\, and m\ Kubin 5")' rather than the three to four diyit price la^s at the gallon My Steinhanit depicts a woodcut.

"Message of Peace " Luckily, my good fortune <>' owning works of these artistfor almost plumes can In yours loo As the connoisseur of art may have guessed by now, rnv works by these art ists are somewhat smaller than those hanging at the gal lery and obviously are not originals And as the pilatel ists may have guessed by now . my copies of Stcinhardl

Rubin, and Agam are part of my Judaica postage stamp collection , My collection of postage .stamps related to Judaica is not limited to Israeli stamps The Agam painting, [or example, was specifically designed as a stamp for the French postal administration. In (act my collection includes stamps from l l o nations from Ailutaki in the Pacific Ocean to Zaire in Africa i both countries were among a dozen nations which issued stamps to commemorate the centenary of Al hi it Kmstein's birth i Some Judaira stamps illustrate liiblical passages or de piot Jewish symbols and holidays ! all of the Jewish holidays have been commemorated by Israel, although Hainan's hanging can be found on a Danish stamp and Ri-inbrandt's version of Ksther's beauty is on a Romanian stampSynagogues in 17 countries have appeared o stamps issued by more than a do/en different nations. Jewish history, from ancient times to the current struggle for Israel's survival, has been the theme of postage stamps A collection focusing only on the Holocaust would include more than l.V) stamps Many of the stamps depict famous Jews or their works They range from A to '/. from artists to zoologists, from Sholem Aleichem to I.ud

If you want to develop your own gallery of Jewish artists on postage stamps, your collection could have the works of f>o artists (plus a half-dozen or more sculptors i. Israel alone has reproduced the art of 22 Jewish artists mot including those who designed its stamps works of art in themselves* The latest additions were in February when landscapes of J e r u s a l e m by M o r d o c a i Ardon.

You, therefore, might want to " l i m i t " yourself to viewing the gallery display and then visiting the art section (the 7W)'s i at the Jewish Federation Library which has books on Agam, Kubin. Steinhardt and other Jewish artists (and about c o l l e c t i n g Judaica stamps i.

The Written Word. . .

By Morris Maline When Soviet Jewry Chairman Shirley Goldstein burst into my office the other day and said, "Want to go to lunch and celebrate?", I had no idea that I was about to launch a new career.

Mrs. Goldstein's abundance of joy was prompted by the news that the Talpalatsky family who had arrived from Russia on April 25, l!)77, had been sworn in as citizens of the United States.

Mrs. Goldstein had invited the parents, Mark and Luba, as well as the children, Haia and Sam, but only Haia and her mother were able to accept, so I and a mystery lady were asked to participate In this happy occasion I refer to a mystery lady because she asked not to be identified or photographed.

To understand what follows, one must immedlatedly understand that Haia is a most attractive and well-educated woman who will reach the age of 23 this September.

She is not married.

Soon, the conversation drifted to the difficulties involved in dating, and the lack of a suitable apparatus to help marriage-minded Individuals meet.

The mystery lady brought me into the picture by saying." Why doesn't the Jewish

Israel Through Stamps

By Israel I. Bick, President Israel Stamp Collectors Society

If the spirit of a nation can be personified by a single individual, the individual has to be Golda Meir, The fourth Prime Minister of the State of Israel A postage stamp, honoring this remarkable woman, has just been issued by Israel. And for collectors everywhere, this stamp is available on a specially designed, limited edition Commemorative Cover.

The lilac colored design features a photographic reproduction which shows pensive Golda, somewhat in opposition to her reputation as a woman of action.

The issuance of the Golda Meir Commemorative stamp is the overriding philatelic event in Israel this month.

However, three other stamps have also come out. They are multicolor reproductions of paintings of Jerusalem.

One is a hillside view done in the abstract lyric style of Joseph Zeritsky. Another, by Moravian-born Anna Tlcho, is a landscape study in browns.

The third, an impressionistic panormama reflects what has been described as the Jewishpersonal metaphysics of painter Mordechi Ardon.

Lincoln Lights

By Estelle Nathan Rosenberg In recent weeks Rabbi Henry Karp of the South Street Temple has spoken at St. Paul's United Methodist Church on "The Significance of Passover for the Jews and Christians," spoken at the Vine Congregational Church on "The Jewish View of Jesus," conducted a four-session seminar of Trinity Methodist Church on "Insights Into Judaism," spoken at the Tecumseh Kiwanls Club on "Passover and Easter."

JERUSALEM, (JTA) Former Foreign Minister Abba Eban offered the Palestinian people a dialogue and urged full autonomy for them on the West Bank and Gaza Strip but firmly rejected any Israeli negotiations with the Palestine Liberation Organization.

"Our'stand is clear: No to the PLO, yes to the moderate Palestinians," Eban told a group of political reporters here to whom he spelled out the differences between Labor Alignment policies and those of the Likud-led government.

Eban, who many expect will be named Foreign Minister should Labor win the June 30 Knesset elections, agreed on at least one point with Likud hawk Moshe Arens, chairman of the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Security Committee.

Arens said that the outcome of the Palestine National Council conference In Damascus and the resolutions it adopted proved the futility of the European view that the Palestine Liberation Organization was moderating its position.

Eban told reporters that the gap between Labor and Likud was wider than that between any opposition and coalition anywhere in the Western world.

"The choice is between a line which makes Israel breathe into her lungs a million and a quarter Arabs, despile their will, and the line which refrains from returning to the pre-1967 borders but without Imposing Israel's permanent rule." lie called for speedy resumption of the autonomy talks with Kgypt, with the aim of granting the Palestinians full autonomy.

Eban observed that a position of territorial compromise would be more readily accepted by world public opinion than the policies of the present government.

New Device to Relieve Pain Victims of arthritis, backache, tennis elbow and similar ailments may find relief In Neurogar III, a new Israeli device that is used to relieve chronic and acute pain.

This latest innovation In pain relief is a small, batteryoperated, lightweight (sevenounce) box of electronic wizardry developed by scientists at Hadassah Hospital. The little box sends electrical impulses to the affected part of the body by means of wires leading to electrode pads placed on the site of the pain.

Neurogar Is a member of the family of TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators), which, like pain-klllIng drugs, operate by blocking pain from reaching the brain.

Recent studies suggest that the electrical Impulses cause nerve endings at the pain site to release a natural paln-dcadenlng substance In the body.

Or it may correct the body's own electrical impulses, gone haywire because of the pain.

Whatever the reason, Neurogar works — according to the testimony of victims of a variety of aches and pains who have used the device In experiments at various hospitals In New York.

Eban said that the sharply worded anti-Israel resolutions In Damascus proved thai Israel was correct in objecting to the European Economic Community's (EEC) Middle East Initiative which calls (or PLO "association" In the peace process.

Foreign Ministry circles said that they had been told by certain European countries which they declined to name that the outcome of the Damascus conference would "surprise Israel" by Its moderation. Arens said that the antiIsrael resolutions that emerged from the Damascus gathering should surprise no one.

He suggested that the Damascus conference might have provided "a lesson for some of the European community, or for the British who have seemed to be living under the delusion or illusion that the PLO could moderate its position, that It was only a matter of being nice to them. . ."

Rabbi to Parents of Intermarried Children:

There Is No Guaranteed Way to Prevent Such Unions ByBenGallob A Hillel rabbi has a therapeutic message for Jewish parents feeling guilty because a son or daughter married a non-Jew: If

Barbra Shkolnick Bat Mitzvah Barbra Shkolnick will become a bat mitzvah at Beth El Synagogue on May 8 and 9.

Barbra Is the daughter of Dave and Phoebe Skholnlck and granddaughter of Jake and Jeanette Shkolnick and Lewis and Anne Dellerson, Hollywood, Fla. Barbra is a seventh grader at Bevcridge Junior High where she is an honor roll student. She bowls in the B'nal B'rith Youth League and enJoys art and singing.

The Shkolnlcks moved to

Barbra Shkolnick Omaha recently from Memphis, Tenn.

Week 3 1. Name three things the Antl-Defamatlon League/Community Relations Committee does.

2. Who Is the director of the ADL/CHC? 3. What countries border the State of Israel? i. If you are exposed to anti-Semitism, what department should you call?

5. Who performs Jewish marriage ceremonies In Omaha?

Bonus question — 7th and 8th graders only What Is anti-Semitism? Have you ever been exposed to this? If

you did your best, don't feel guilty because there are no guaranteed methods to prevent such marriages In an open society.

Habbi Richard Israel, director of the Hillel Council of Greater Boston, bolstered that counsel by asserting "there Is a point even in the relationship between a parent and a child."

Israel spelled out his views on the impact of the American open society on interdatlng and mixed-marriage In a recent Issue of the Journal of the North Shore Jewish Federation, published in Salem, Mass.

Asking how a Jewish parent can "positively guarantee" a child will not marry a non-Jew, Israel wryly replied: "It's simple. Live In the year 1200. Short of that, there is little certainty."

Arguing that mixed marriage "Is one of the higher prices" Jews pay for living in an open society, Israel contended that most American Jews do not want to live "in the closed, hostile world of the past." He suggested that about "the only significant" action the Jewish community can lake to prevent such marriages among Jewish children "is to create the most interesting, important and appealing community we can."

He added that Jewish parents encourage their children to explore the outside world "not because we want them to break away from us but rather because we want them to be able to cope with our very complicated world." But one of the things "that a wide horizon brings Is a world of values that may not be shared In the Jewish home," he added.

Citing the deliberately chosen and strongly enforced separation from that world that very Orthodox parents create for their children, Israel declared "I want more than that for my children. I want both Torah and the world" and, as a result, "I take some large risks.

One of the biggest is that "my children will Interdate," adding that the evidence was that "the highest rate" of mixed marriage Is in families where parents approve Interdatlng, Israel said that about "the only way" a Jewish parent can be certain there will be no mixed-marriages in his family "Is to be certain there Is no interdatlng" among his children.

He added that if he had his "druthers," he would ban Interdatlng but, he said, very few Jewish parents "have the power to tell our adolescents what they may or may not do, and make It stick," when the children "are not within the confines of our home."

The children "live in many places" beyond the reach of parents, he added, declaring that "It makes no sense to prohibit things you cannot achieve. A child who chooses to date a non-

"We have every reason to believe that when the renovations are complete, the pool will be functioning at the highest mechanical level, and the new deck will be an additional comfort for all of our members."

MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT THE JEWISH DAY SCHOOL 13 in a series M Y T H : Jewish and secular education together are too much for elementary school children to nandle.

F A C T : Individualized instruction permits the children to proceed at their own pace, without being forced. Experience in modern Day Schools throughout the country shows that children can master the two curricula. They do this while developing non-academic interests and while having ample time for recreation.

While the AWACS can detect all aircraft within a 250-300 mile radius, Pelcd said that "an Air Force like ours, which has F-15's, can shoot down such big buses with relative ease.

"These planes are practically defenseless if someone really wants to shoot them down and has the (aircraft with the) range to reach them," he said.

so, how?

Jew will find one." He said a parental ban on such a relationship may drive it "out of our sight without driving it out of our existence."

What often happens in such situations, Israel added, is that the parents try to make "the necessary uneasy adjustments" in the hope that the child's lnlerdatlng "is but a temporary fancy that will not result" in a mixed marriage.

Israel confessed that he used to believe that If parents provided their children with a good Jewish education, a warmly Jewish home, a circle of nice Jewish friends, and took them to the synagogue regularly, "nothing could go wrong." He added: "Itjustisn'tso."

He said there were other strategies, like those he had suggested, which might minimize the likelihood that Jewish parents would be confronted with those painful choices but "they will not guarantee a thing."

Among those strategies he recommended was providing preadolescent and adolsecents with a "maximum number" of Jew-) ish settings; sending them to Jewish schools, "especially day schools, and particularly in the teen-age years;" try to live In a Jewish neighborhood; make sure the children have "extended experiences in Israel" to which he added a footnote: "but recognize that Herzl, Weizmann and Ben-Gurion all had children" who married non-Jews.

Rabbi Israel counseled the Jewish parent who "may have intended to be a superparent" to remember that "there are no agencies or Institutions authorized to give out super-parent licenses." He suggested to guilt-burdened parents that "you may have to accept yourself for what you are, someone who tried to be the best parent you could. That Is good enough."

Culture of the American Jewish Congress and representatives of the Moroccan government, according to Mr. Siegman, who returned yesterday from a Congress leadership mission to Morocco.

"The Moroccans are Interested in Maimonides because his lite and work represent an outstanding; example of Muslim-Jewish cultural cross-fertilization," Mr. Siegman said.

"Maimonides was influenced

by Muslim thought, and his own writings had a profound impact on major Muslim thinkers."

Phil Baum, associate executive director ol Congress and director of its Commission on International Affairs who accompanied Mr. Siegman on the mission, noted that AJCongress leaders were reassured that the Jewish community of Morocco, although greatly diminished in size, continues to play an active role in Moroccan life. "We were encouraged by repeated expressions of high regard for the Jewish community by both government and the people of Morocco," Mr. Baum said.

"Equally important," he added, "the community remains a part of the Jewish people and shares in Its appreciations throughout the world, Including the Middle East. We find this to be especially heartening because the community must exist in the midst of a strongly Moslem nation, the official policies of which reflect its ties to the Islamic Conference."

Ben-Melr thus spans both Israel and Diaspora. He Is a Sephardic scholar par excellence, who has lived and worked among communities In which Ashkenazic Jews predominate. In Defiance of Time Is a superb collection of essays dealing with Ben-Meir's analysis of the challenges facing Jews In Israel and throughout the world. He combines the passion of a dedicated partisan on behalf of Israel. . .and the probing insights of a true scholar.

Ben-Melr Is as proud as any Jew of (he astounding accomplishments of the State of Israel. At the same time, he feels that "Israel may very well need a revolutionary shakcup to cure its current economic and political Ills." Certainly a nation which is experiencing annual inflation rates In excess of 130 percent, and in which the ruling party coalition constantly faces serious challenges, cannot long sustain Itself with romantic self-adulation and wishful thinking.

At the same time, Diaspora Jewry — especially the Jewry of the "Free World" Western nations — must, according to Bcn-Mclr, "perform some radical surgery to eradicate the cancerous conditions of disintegration." His chapter on "The Disorganization of the Organizations" should be must reading by all lay and professional people Involved with Jewish organizational work.

Ben Meir. . .is quite blunt in calling for the outright dissolution of "any organization which has perpetuated itselfmerely for Its own sake." As for the other Jewish organizations, if they are to attract young members to carry on their work In the future, they must choose between "dissolution and rejuvenation."

In addition to his penetrating analysis of Israeli and Diaspora problems, Ben-Melr includes a very moving poem entitled "I Am No Longer the Victim," a touching and dramatic refusal to serve as the world's convenient scapegoat.

Whether through sharply reasoned prose of through affecting poetry, Alon BenMeir's writing is a gift to be shared by as many readers as possible. In Defiance of Time is a book you will want on your own shelves, and on those of your friends of all backgrounds. . ..

Artistically Speaking

By Carol Katzman Jody Malashock entertains no thoughts of becoming another Nell Simon or Diane Keaton. But she wouldn't mind if someone like them came to Omaha to conduct a film workshop.

"Those goals are far in the future," said Jody, the new Film chairman of the Jewish Community Center's Cultural and Performing Arts Committee.

"Right now we're concentrating on get- Carol Katunan ting the Miller Film Series off the ground."

She and her committee of Marsha Fox, Janet Lipsey, Robin and Bob Freeman and husband Buzz Malashock booked the following films to be shown this June through September at the JCC: Nell Simon's "Goodbye Girl," "Judgement at Nuremberg," the original "Jazz Singer," a double feature Mel Brooks night, "Blazing Saddles" and "The Producers," "Cast a Giant Shadow," and Woody Allen's "Annie Hall."

"The original purpose of the Miller Film Series was to bring Jewish films to Omaha," said Jody. "We've stretched the Interpretation a bit, but we wanted films that would appeal to different groups. Buzz is excited about the Mel Brooks "Yuk-lt-up-night" as we call It, but I'm more interested in "Judgement at Nuremberg."

The series, funded by a grant from the Avi L. and Roberta L. Miller Foundation, opens in June with a series ticket priced at only $5 for JCC members, $10 for nonmembers. Individual tickets can be purchased for $1.50 and $2 for members and non-members.

"We're hoping to sec the youth groups, AZA's and BBG's take advantage of this," continued Jody, "It is a cheap date!"

"But a film like 'Cast a Giant Shadow' for example, is a good basis for a discussion on Jewish history. There's something for everyone."

It's only Jody's first year volunteering at the JCC. With this kind of start, It won't be her last.

The Jewish Pre»a

A Light Unto Our People

i A new era could be dawning in the Negev. For hundreds of young pioneering families making a second sacrifice

People who have poured the best years of their lives into pioneering one wilderness are forced to wait — to begin all over again in another.

For the sake of peace, they will leave behid the flourishing life they were called on to establish in the Sinai: the homes, the fields, the bright new communities they built through so many years of hard, devoted work.

Why? Who is holding up the dawn of the new era in the south of Israel? Who is blocking the light?

To start new lives on the bare sands of the Negev.

We are. Because we have not supported the willingness of these families to pay the price of peace with the flow of our campaign funds.

They are ready to make their move now. But their new homes, greenhouses artd orchards in the Besor Region are not yet ready for them.

The eight new settlements planned by the Jewish Agency are barely visible in the barren landscape.

The new era cannot begin, the light behind the dawn cannot emerge ... unless we do our full share toward helping them make their move for peace.

Your pledge to the 1981 campaign is a girt of light unto our people.
