By Bert L e w i s 1 want to share something a little unusual with you. The year in question is 188(5, and the source was not our J e w i s h Press. The newspaper was called the Omaha Daily Hepublican, and it was an interesting example of the journalism of the time. I should explain I was investigating information about the founding of the old Young Men's Hebrew Association, and was led to the Daily Republican of 1886. I found my information (more about that at s later date) and in addition, I learned a tittle about the Jewish community hero at that time. I don't really know how active the Jews were, but under a caption titled "synagogue notes" these items appeared: "A number of Hebrew young men met at the synagogue lost Sunday to organize a Literary Society." Also, "Rabbi Benson leaves today for Nebraska City in response . to a telegram calling him there on religious matters." And, "The Benevolent Society of the Hebrew Church will give their dramatic entertainment next Sunday," Still another item reported the tragic news of the passing of a child, with details explaining the "rites according to the Hebrew faith were held at the family home." Although not related to anything Jewish, o few more items caught my eye. One story told of a Mrs. Creighton who was "violently thrown from her carriage as it rounded a corner, and who fell to the ground a corpse", Now that's what I call reporting the fact*, with no frills! Ami this — a full page ad, extolling the virtues of "Belle of Bourbon mm mash medicine". I found it hilarious, though it WAS obviously intended to he serious stuff. The "medicine" was for Malaria, typhoid fever, blood poisoning, insomnia, indigestion, dyspepsia, surgical fevers and dissemutation of food (whatever that was), The ad further stated that it was endorsed by a doctor named Bamum, I couldn't help but wonder if he was related to the Bamum who made the claim about a sucker born every minute! One last note: a husband and wife were arrested for drunk and disorderly conduct and were brought before the judge. Upon their promise to "reform", they were discharged. Do you suppose they took too much medicine? That's this way it must have been, 97 yearn ogo! otiaesy fcsstscd* pits.

Problems in boosting domestic tourism Comment needed Syndicated columnists Evans and Novak have reported on the editorial pages of the Oniaha World-Herald that Sen Orrin Hatch of Utah and Sen. Edward Zorinsky of Nebraska have had "an unusually frank discussion" with the foreign minister of Syria. Hatch's report to the White Houss on the talk, as reported by the columnists, "contradicts claims by Israel that Syria is a creature of Moscow and therefore a danger to U.S. diplomacy." Hatch's letter, the columnists said, received "strong backing" from Sen. Zorinsky. The article points out further that Hatch and Zorinsky were persuaded that Syria's independence from the Soviet Union is "indisputable". Sen. Hatch is from Utah and he is under no obligation to inform Nebraskans. Sen. Zorinsky is. Clarification is needed, and expected.

Youth bureau? Jewish youth in Omaha have a sizeable number of organizations with which to affiliate. There are the synagogue youth groups, those of B'nai B'rith, and some affiliated with the Jewish Community Center. What appears to be lacking, however, is some semblance of overall direction and guidance. Lack of coordination among youth activities, in some cases, means wasted time, effort and money. It is possible that a survey of Jewish youth may disclose shortcomings that could be addressed on a community-wide level. But, who is to conduct the survey? Who will provide the leadership needed? Who will assess what should be done and how changes should be effected? The answer may be in a model established to serve the needs of the aging. The Federation put all aging activities under the umbrella of the Bureau for the Aging. Perhaps, what is needed, is a Bureau for Youth.

HAIFA — It's legal! It's permissible! One can BOW go on television in Israel and openly proclaim that IV] Aviv has many attractions, nuking it a pleasant metropolis. It it now also allowed to tell of the beauties of Haifa, the charm of Tiberias and the appeal of Aehkelon, without fear of running afoul of the law, and feeing fines or perhaps even prison. This may sound ridiculous, but until a decision by the Attorney General's office, such statements were banned, end the Broadcasting Authority suspended the televising of advertising jingles paying tribute to the virtues of these cities, against appropriate pictorial backgrounds. The initial furor was created because of the imminent elections in Israel's ritks. It all started harmlessly enough. In view of the fact that many hundred* of thousands of Israelis ore spending their vacttions overseas, the Minister of Tourism, Avraham Sharir, thought it would b« a £ood idea to promote internal tourism. If ItnteS advertise* its virtues to tourists from abroad, why should not ths tame blessings he appreciated by our own citizenry? The various cities offer attractions and advantages which can compete with centers in other countries. Furthermore, Israelis going abroad spend precious foreign currency, and this adds to the drain on the national economy. Accordingly, the Ministry invested some $100,000 in producing a series of camera visits to four important resort cities. Musical jingles were added, tinging the praises of each, with such themes as: "I like Tel Aviv!" But since Mayor Shloroo Lehfit of Tel Aviv is up for reelection in the forthcoming polls, members of opposition

parties charged that this was just a disguised form of election propaganda, paid for out of public funds. The inference w u that if Tel Aviv is such a great place, obviously the mayor detervea the credit, and ought to be re-elected Indeed, the law forbids political campaigning of this nature in the 150 days preceding the elections, except under conditions which give equal time to the respective parties. The Director of the Broadcasting Authority, Yosef Lapid, taken aback by the criticism, hastily sought legal opinion, and then banned all further screening of the shorts. The Minister of Tourism fought right back. He noted that about 150,000 Israelis left the country for their vacations in July alone, and many mote w e n due to leave in August end September. Last year, he said, Israelis spent $850,000,000 on vacations cat of the country. Why enrich the hotel and tourist industries elsewhere, he eaktd, when we should support our own, end still give the vacationist his money's worth. It was recalled that a few yean ego there had been a somewhat similar incident. Disturbed by television end radio's emphasis on the morbid, the critical and the gloomy on Israel's news scene, the Government suggested that one hour a day, at least, to be known as "Good Morning", should feature the pleasant, the constructive and the favorable side of the news. What a holier went up! .The opposition parties charged that this was just a trick to make political propaganda, end to tell the electorate on how good things were under the present administration. In the meantime, the broadcaster* went on their diabolical way trying to prove how bad things Were — end the proposed Good Morning program was aborted.

Finding Israel again B y M. J . Rosenberg Near East Report Israel faces e new danger. It is not military and it Ea not economic. It is not even political Although tbe country faces threats in all three areas. Israel's newest problem is that it is being lost amongst ths day's Middle Bast headlines. Pick a day. There are all kinds of stories which isentfon Israel. Stories about Lebanon, and about war powers, the Druse, and Major Haddad's forces. There ere stories about the Reagan plan end the Saudis and when the Egyptian ambassador will return. There are stories about Israel's political situation. Will Shamir run for full term? Will Begin speak out? Israel as a country, however, has vanished. Instead, it is a current events category — a place encrusted with politics and depressing news. The early Zionists might be pleased. In 1882, when Moses Hess wrote Rome and Jerusalem — a Zionist manifesto — Jews appeared in newspapers only as victims of massacres and pogroms. When Theodor Herd died in 1904 he was still trying to move tho Jewish national horns out of the realm of fairy tales and back into history, back on to page i. Today, Israel is there — and with a vengeance. The other night, the network news reported the story of Menachem Benin's official resignation. One of the newscasters told about oil of Israel's problems: the shekel is worth next to nothing, the Lebanon situation won't go away, the settlements issue continues to fester. All this to (he strains of "Halikva" softly playing in the background. Can anyone be blamed for concluding that this is Israel, that it is nothing more than the sum total of its problems? Amidst all thin, it is sometimes hard to keep in mind that there is o country there, a country of four million people, a country not exclusively composed of politicons. It is all too easy to forget those people — to took no further than the Awali river and the latest Cabinet session — to forget the miracle that wag, the miracle that still is. Not long ago, after an absence that was too long, I returned to Israel. I had looked forward to the trip with ex-

citement but also with trepidation. The Lebanese situation was still hot. The country was split down the middle over the government's course. It was not the best of tiroes. We left BenGurion airport in a cab, parked our luggage ami after a 10 hour flight end little sleep — grabbed a bus and headed downtown. We got off near the King Dsvid Hotel and started walking. To the B*n-Yernsds Street Mail. Down to the Jaffa Gate end the Western Wall. Within minutes, we felt that we were back in Israel; and that it was still Israel — real and unobscured We rented an apartment for a month in a west Jerusalem neighborhood called Beit Ho-Kerem. Will anyone believe me when I say that, despite all the political turbulence, despite tbe demonstrators and the counterdemonsf rators, that Jerusalem and Beit Ha-Kertm were islands of tranquility? I remember our first Friday night there. We walked from our apartment to the Jerusalem forest — just blocks away — to a spot near Mount Herd from which wo could look out over the Israeli countryside. As we walked back, we looked in window's we passed and observed families, in their Shahbat best, at the table. Flickering candles filled the cmly evening. Passing strangers called out "Shabbat Shalom," smiled at our children. On Saturday, we walked to a park where old and young Jews sat and savored the day of rest. It was normal, even banal. That banality, that normality, is of course the miracle of Israel. Lest week, newspapers carried reports of an unusual Cicchoslovakian flit exhibit. It seems that the Nazis — while annihilating one-third of all tho Jews in the world — preserved 145,000 Jewish art, ceremonial, and ritualistic items. They preserved them so that they could be displayed, after oil the Jews were gone, in a "museum of the extinct race." Instead they will be displayed in Washington and New York where hundreds of thousands of living Jews will sec them. It's a wonderful thing. It could even be called a miracle. But it is lets of a miracle than even & singlo banal day in the State of Israel ~ the one place where the laughter of a Jewish child is itaelf a work of art.

To tbe Editor: Ouch! My friend Henry misquoted me! It is true that I spoke to the Old Timers lost 'ltifsday, and enjoyed it very much. But I did not wry that/"They (Christian!)) must be informed that the new and ojld Testaments are 97% untrue . . . " What I did say was that when Christian ignoramuses (clergy and laity alike) say something like "JudoiHm is the religion of the Old Testament and Christianity is the religion of the New Testament," their statement in ojfjout 97% untrue. For just as Christianity had much, much development after the Christian Scriptures were written, so too Judaism had much, much development after the Hebrew/Scriptures (the Bible) were written. The rabbinic literature, the medieval and modern philosophers, codifiers, theologians, and moralists are all part of that development. Judaism is not the religion of the Bible — alone.

as criticizing U.S. policy in the mid-east by "focusing too narrowly on Ijebanon at the expense of Syria" and "the broader strategic picture of mid-east peace." (Omaha World Herald, editorial page, 9-30-83). Orrin Hatch (Republican-Utah) arjd Zorinsky traveled to the mid-east this summer and came to the assessment that Syria is "not Moscow's puppet" and that "Syria's independence from Russia IB indisputable." This is the same Syria that now objects to the agreement that "Israel compelled Lebanon to accept" as a price of its eventual uoop withdrawal and which "puts Lebanon** economy and security at the mercy of Israel." Evans and Novak conclude this editorial by praising Hatch and Zorinsky for their "refreshing perspective" on the mid-east — a perspective that asks the U.S. to give consideration to Syria as a strong ally and move away from our «ole dependence upon Israel as a U.S. ally in tho midcast. Zorinsky's position and voting record have finally caught up with him.
