Reparations p. id by tli V.'t i (>c>: ,,i, government to victims of Nazi persecution should not be counted as income and used to deny social security benefits, says the American Jewish Congress. The organization said that the Social Security Administration should exempt payments as is done with personal injury awards and other "tort damages" received as compensation for civil loso. The Internal Revenue Service follows this principle in exempting restitution payments from income'" taxes, and AJCongress wants the Social Security Administration to follow suit. The AJCongress position was set forth in an amicus, or "friend of the court".brief filed with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The brief was submitted on a hearing in the case of Felicia Grunfeder, a Nazi victim who has been receiving restitution from West Germany and has been denied disability benefits because the Social Security Administration considers the reparations payments to be "unearned income." The filing was announced by Paul S. Berger, chairman of the Governing Council of AJCongrees. The AJCongress brief argues that restitution from the German government to Holocaust victims for "damages to body, mind and spirit" is made "in recognition of a moral obligation to make amends" and is not "income" as defined by Congress when it passed the Social Security legislation. As a young child, Ms, Grunfeder lived in the Warsaw ghetto. Later, she was separated from her mother and incarcerated in the Lager Rote-Rose concentration camps. Her father and other members of her family were murdered by the: Nazis.," 'Ms. Grunfeder now suffers from schizophrenia, depression and neurosis requiring continuing supervision and treatment. The

In 1974, she began to receive U.S. Social Security payments because of her psychological disability. In 1920, however, the Social Security Administration learned she was receiving German reparations and ruled that this constituted income which made her ineligible to receive Social Security benefits. Ms. Grunfeder filed administrative appeals but was turned down by the top level appeals council of the Social Security Administration. She then filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. The court also dismissed her claim. Ms. Grunfeder appealed to. the U.S. Appeals Court for the Ninth Circuit which upheld the lower court. She then filed a motion for rehearing by the entire panel of Ninth Circuit judges. The rehearing was granted. "Tort" damages — damages awarded as compensation for civil wrongs —r have never been considered income under the nation's revenue acts, according to the AJCongress brief which cited "a long history" of Treasury Department and Supreme Court rulings to the effect that personal injury recoveries are nontaxable. It also noted that in conformity with this position, the Internal Revenue Service has continuously ruled that the definition of income does not include German reparations payments. The brief noted that the term "income" is, by Congressional intent, the same in the Social Security Act as it is in the nation's income tax' legislation.

• • Heritage: Civltresiiws and! the Jews, a monumental, nine-episode public television series thot documents the sweeping course of Jewish experience through three rnillenia of Western civilization is com.inuing on the Nebraska ETV Network Monday nights « 9 -o'clock. More than five yc-aw in psoduction, the milestone television event is ho:;t£d tnd narrated by Abba Eban, former Israeli Ambassador to the United Slates end tho United Nations. Heritage — a production of WNET/Kew York — is the first iull-accle television celebration of our common humanistic end moral heritage, ti:p!ored through whet Eban calls the "mysteries" of tho preservation, renewal end resonance of tho Jewish people. To expand tho impact of this major television production, the serfes will curve as the centerpiece of nationwide historical Etudy — in colleges, high cchoola, libraries, churches, synagogues and homes — through c large-scale distribution of books, viewers' (juides, instructional posters and other materials, including a tradu book by Ambassador Eban published in September. "It is a dramctic story," eays Mr. Eban. "It has bsen told in parchment and in sculpture, in writing, in.music, in opera, in every medium. But it has never been told in the television medium os vividly as we-hope .to tell it." . If the first two cpicodsa are a good indication of what is to come, we are privileged to benefit from television's finest hours. .

A quick end superficial look nt the Knesset in full session will reveal 16 members wearing head covering, an indication of their religious inclination, though these ore not identical with the-16. members who sport boards.

Riding through the1 rocky barren hillsides of the Galilee, one perceives the significance and importance of the work of the Jewish National Fund's contribution to the development of Israel.. Historically, in the Middle East, whoever resides or cultivates the land ban claim'ownership to that land. The Galilee is an area which has a large geographical area and few residents. The topography is difficult to form and the small Moshav's that have been started are.mostly light industrial (artificial diamonds, computer parts, etc.) When a young Arab family decides to start out on their . own they simply erect a makeshift hut atop a hillside (many raise goats, donkeys, etc.), and lay claim'to the land. An unwritten law in.the Middle East however, is that if someone has cultivated the land (by planting, for example, a forest) then you cannot simply claim this land. Thus, if Israel carmot find sufficient numbers of Jews to populate the Galilee, their only recourse is to cultivate the land with trees. This task falls to the JNF which plans in th^ next decade

i..

to reclaim an additional 70,000 acres to add to what they have already done since 1901. Fifty million trees will be planted in the next decade. Many of us honor the memory of loved ones by purchasing trees in Israel through JNF through our local Synagogues. The Omaha Federation honors the birth of all Omaha children by purchasing a tree in the JNF Children's

Rabbinic law makes clear just how a Sukkah is to be built. The chief care is that it must not be a structure usable for permanent dwelling. It must be open to the sliy — including the rain and the winds. Thus it reminds us that human beings are subject to nature —• no matter how strong their dwellings. Every time a hurricane or a tornado confronts us, we regain, perforce, our humility before nature. Need 1 suggest what I have in mind on this Festival of Sukkot.? It is not only before nature that we are more or less helpless. There are other powers as well, including those which we have unleashed against ourselves — man against man, nation against nation. We have arrived, it has been said so often now, at a point where we arc capable of destroying ourselves and poisoning our planet. We can undo what God has done: we can reverse creation. Our little world is a Sukkah — frail and unprotected, unprotectable indeed, against the fury which man can unleash. War is now absurd, if it was not for ages before now. Arms races are now absurd. Overkill is absurd. New generations of nuclear weapons are absurd. What is not absurd is our desire to protect ourselves, to whatever extent protection has any meaning. The best protection is the freeze, the reduction, and the even? tual elimination of all the horrendous weaponry men now possess. Life is not absurd. .Goodness is not absurd. Man's goal is life andgoodness together. Anything that promotes that goal is "joy on Sukkot." Anything that works against it falls into the trough of the absurd. Our very fraility demands resolution, demands a mankind resolved to endure, resolved to destroy the Destruction now in our hands. •

By Rabbi Myer Si Kripke Few of us follow the BiUIical admonition !o "dwell in • the Sukkah." Most of us remember grandparents, perhaps, who did. They had all their meals in the Siskkuh. They tlept in it, on whatever makeshift bedding could be arranged. We prefer, in our infinite wisdom, to ttrcts the harvest element in Sukkot, and decorate our Sukkah with fruits ond vegetables, with pictures and hangings, with gay streamers, and other symbols of joy. And we remind ourselves that it is Sukkot particularly where the Biblical text enjoins the Jew three times that he is to rejoice on this festival. So there is nothing wrong with joyous celebration . .. excepting that we forget one other element of Sukkot, which makes an "odd couple" when joined with the joy of Sukkot. It is the fraility of the Sukkah. The Bible requires Jews to "dwell in Sukkot" as a reminder of the precarious situation of our ancestors in the precarious situation of our ancestors in the perilous deserts they had to traverse on their way to the Promised Land from Egypt. At best they could throw up temporary lean-tos and frail coverings from the winds and cold of desert nights. We are told to do the same.

Israeli trade bill passe Rep. Hal Daub has voted in favor of the Israeli Free Trade Zone Act which eliminates tariffs and other barriers to trade between the United Slates and I.sruel. Congressman Daub was a cosponsor of the bill which passed the House 416-6.

j

"Passage of this bill is good news because the elimination of Israeli tariffs will increase demands for. U.S. exports end it gives Israel a chance to compete fairly in the American market," Daub said. The free trade agreement will ensure a permanent, stable trading framework in which the U.S. there of Isrfifcl'n $8 billion import mar-

"This agreement will enable this trade, including agricultural trade, to grow at an even faster pace, generating more jobs for Americans and helping to lower the U.S. trade deficit," Daub said.

I \..i reminded the other d:.y, of thr* old -./pre-uon, "a place for evuylhmg L.IJ tvuythin^ \.\ ttj p.L'.". l.Cuyt' it's a little tnte, bet it L_-.-.c>m_. mtnl I d^.i't t.tu.k i. |)-.r_on has to Le ob_-_bni_!/ i.cct to III tlur-o- "'in j.!iW — or to dislike things "out of piece". Let me tell you what brought this to mind. 1 vvos fighting my way into the fcupcimarket parking lot when I realised a lot of the congestion wtsduo to bi,nk customers. People who were trying to g._t into that tiny building to transact bank businet.-, while I'm trying to reach the groceries. In other Etorcs it's t-veii v.ores. They bank right inside, at the same place you return bottles! Ok. If that's fair, then why cen't I expect to find grocery items in THE BANK? I mean if you can etop at the grocery to make a bank deposit, v.'liy can't I pick up milk, eggs and a box of kasha ot the Fircl National? Another example of this rearrangement of old things in new places i3 the household section of the grocery, where you can buy a toaster or an iron or a coffea pot. Well, then shouldn't the appliance store have a corner devoted to fresh "'•meats,'fish end produce? Fair is'fair.' As it happens, I buy fresh vegetables and fruit from the grower whenever I can. I don't mind driving a few extra miles for the superior quality; what I DO mind is the display of hand crocheted pot holders and embroidered dish towels. I guess the farmer's wife figures she'might as well get in on the fringe benefits too! Well, that's what I,meant when I said I believe in things being in their proper places. I wish the banks would get the heck out of the^gfocery stores and go back to being the dignified establishments they uced to be. Oh I'm vyell aware that for many people such an arrangement is a helpful timesaver. But folks have chvayo been busy; and when banking was only done at the bank, people managed to get there. I don't know how the grocers feel about it all. I suppose there are arguments for both sides, pro.and con. There must be a certain percentage of banking customers who pick up a few groceries, since it's handy. But it must also cost the grocer to offer banking. It's not my worry.,'.". except when I want groceries! Then I'd like the more traditional (and yes,'old-fashioned) way. So far, nobody has called to ask me my opinion about it — . but it's a free country, so I've expressed it anyway! And I'll always believe there's a proper place for everything, even while I'm cashing a'clieck at the courtesy counter . . .

By Art Grossman We are indebted to the Book of Ruth for one of the most poignant phrases, pertaining to loyalty, handed dowu as 8 legacy for nuinanity. When Ruth's husband peises away her mother-inluv,', Naomi, urges her to return to her homeland, Mcab. Iluth hi a stirring exchange, tcfuKs to Isavtt Naomi. In a powerful Lppeal Ruth says: "Entreat me not to leave the:-, and to return from following tfttr thee, for wither tiiou goeat, 1 will go ..." Ruth's celebrated words, in a literal nonse, apply to my wife, Anne, and me. Our son, Lawrence, is a Foreign Service Officer in the Diplomatic Coip'i of i]:o.U..S. . .Sit'ate Department. In th"t capacity he tic-rvc-s in Auiu'r. ican embassiea in various countries. • Currently he is the Administrative Officer in the U. S. Embassy in Copenhagen, Denmark. And — inasmuch as it is particularly difficult for him to •visit,us — we, taking a cue from Ruth, say: "Wither thou goest we will go .'.. to visit." Recently we did just that joining our son in Copenhagen and, as is our habitual practice whenever we visit a . foreign land, we made an effort to seek out a synagogue and Worship with our people.' This time we daveried with our overseas "family" in Denmark. There are approximately 8,000 Jews in Denmark, most of whom reside in Copenhagen. The city has two synagogues — the larger, aptly called The Main Synagogue, is described as moderately Orthodox. It was consecrated in 1833. The other synagogue is ultra Orthodox and isnamed Machsike Hadas meaning literally "Holding on to the faith." ' , .. We davened at Machsike Hadas during a MinhaMa'ariv service which was characteristic of those I attended as a lad at the Kapulier Shule in Omaha. Not a prayer, nor a single word, nor a rhythmic beat was deleted. It being the month of Elul the Ba'al Teki'ah closed the service with' a stirring blast of the shofar symbolic of the approach of Rosh Hashanah. Due to a religious dispute within the congregation of The Main Synagogue, Machsike. Hadas was founded in 1913; its present
