This coalition reached the heights of success in the early 60s with the passage of important civil rights legislation. atpr., Jii "•passage of the Oiyil ;Righi coalition has been beset witlvtensions. This is tragic because there appears to be among them so little discussion of the differences and each appears to have so little understanding of the other's point of view." Sen.

Two major announcements affecting the futuregrowth and development of the Nebraska Jewish Historical Society were made Oct. 16 preceding the 8 p.m. showing of the documentary film " W e s t of Hester Street" at the Jewish Community Center. The grant of on aggregate sum of $25,000 from the Carl Frohm Foundation was announced by Mary Fellman, NJHS president and Lou Lipp, director of the Foundation. The sum will be given to the Society over a five year period with annual payments of $5,000 to carry on the work of the Society. •-.'••'

The United States and Israel have begun'multi-year cooperative research projects in oil shale and coal conversion — the first joint efforts to emerge from a December, 1983 pledge of cooperation by Energy Secretary Don Hodel and Yitzhak Moda'i, then Israel's. Minister of Energy and Infrastructure. Details of the projects — which provide for specific activities under the framework of an "umbrella" agreement signed by the two countries in June, 1984 — were finalized by U.S. and Israeli technical officials last month in Jerusalem. There projects will study various aspects of oil shale and one will explore a low-temperature, low-pressure method for changing coal into alternative fuels. • "These agreements reflect the shared commitment to cooperate in scientific and technical exploration that exists between our two countries," said Secretary Hodel. "The same spirit of cooperation was evident during my visit with Minister Moda'i in December, and I am pleased to see that it has continued through subsequent negotiations between our two nations." "In particular," Hodel said, "the agreements signed within the last few days will permit the U.S. to share in the creative oil shale research already underway in Israel and to apply the knowledge we learn to both the oil shales and, potentially, the high sulfur bituminous coals we have in abundance in this country." The framework of the agreements was developed when Hodel toured several Israeli energy facilities in December, 1983 and subsequently hosted a visit by Minister Moda'i to Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island, New. York, in July. Moda'i is now the Israeli Minister of Finance. Under the agreements, several research institutions in Israel will conduct projects in conceit with similar activities underway in U.S. laboratories. Should all of the projects continue for the full duration, the U.S.'funding share could total about $620,000., Thelsraeli projects will ba ovefossn by the Ministry of Energyand Infrastructure while the Department of Energy will coordinate U.S. participation.

Joslyn flm .classics continue during November The fall Joalyn Film Classics Series Continues in November in conjunction with the exhibition, "Danzig 1939: Treasures of a Destroyed Community," with three more internationallyflavored films that reflect upon Jewish heritage in the 20th-century. Entitled, "Reflections of the Jewish Experience," the series features a contemporary line-up of award-winning films from Italy, Switz-

erland. France und other .countries. The Sunday matinee series is b«trsg made possible in part by Mickey Sturm, Don Sturm and their children, Bob and Melanie who are also underwriting the "Danzig 1939" exhibition at the Joslyn (which runs through Nov. 18). The next Fijm Classic, "The Garden of-Finzi-Continis," is set in Mussolini's Italy of 1938 when the dictator's anti-Semitic laws be-

(continued from page 1) tween Blacks and Jews, but they have allowed the tension to obscure the many ways in which the two groups agree. For example, on the question of quotas "Jews believe that quotas place a ceiling on their aspirations while Blacks believe they put a floor under their aspirations. Blacks believe that quotas are well worth defending and some affirmative action must be taken in their behalf. There should be equal opportunity with both contestants at the starting line." "Blacks and Jews were allies in the early battle for Civil Rights. But the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 were the last great alliance between the Jews and the Blacks.1' Sen. Bond quoted pollster Louis Harris who said that there are basic reasons for the split between Blacks and Jews. Blacks see Jews as attaining the status they are still working for. And according to Sen. Bond anti-Semitism among Blacks is misplaced envy as much as hate. "At the same time on most broader .social issues Blacks and Jews far more than Americans as a whole share positions in common," said Sen. Bond. He referred to working towards passage of the Equal Rights Amendment, gun control, nuclear freeze and opposition to the amendment to ban abortions. "Blacks know that Jews have supported the rights of minorities more than any other group."

gan to isolate Jews from their communities. Among the prisoners in their own country were the FinEi-Continis, an aristocratic Jewish family forced for the first time to acknowledge the world beyond the boundaries of its well-guarded estate. The 1971 Italian film, starring Dominique Sanda, marked a comeback of sorts for its director, Vittorio De Sica, whose early efforts in-

However, Sen. Bond said that we should never forget that there are Black people who do not like Jews and Jews who do not like Black people. Both groups should not ignore the reality and should fight against it. Sen. Bond said that when the idea of social justice seemed a new and popular fad some years ago there was an assumption that achieving it was painless and cost free. "But it has not been. Yesterday's alliances may not always be sufficient for today's cause, but when it comes to the battle for justice, credentials must be renewed daily. This coalition between Blacks and Jews helped make real the progress in creating an equal America. We should strengthen the same coalition so the job can be finished and in the process revive the spirit that brought black and white, Jew and Gentile together." During the question and answer session, Sen. Bond was asked what advice he would give Ernie Chambers to improve relations with Jews. He replied that he would not give Mr. Chambers any advice, but he did have some thoughts on how to improve BlackJewish relations. "It is helpful sometimes if the discussions can be conducted face to face rather than in the public press. Different groups in any community must have a formalrelationship so they can talk together to prevent crisis," the senator stated.

From Switzerland comes "The Boat is Full," a story of live Jews and one Nazi deserter fleeing from Germany and technically barred by the immigration laws in neutral Switzerland. The heroic survivors try to pass as a family in a desperate attempt to escape certain death in Hitler's concentration camps. The 1980 film directed by Markus Imhoof is subtitled in English and shows on Nov. 11. "Madame Rosa," the winner of the 1977 Academy Award as Best Foreign Film, tells of a former prostitute living in the Belleville slum of Paris who survived the horrors of Auschwitz and now helps children of prostitute? survive by caring for them. "Madame Rosa" will be screened on Nov. 25. Each Joslyn Film Classic will be shown at 2 and 4 p.m. in the Museum's Lecture Hall. A free, informal coffee and discussion period is scheduled .between each week's screenings. Film notes on each week's feature will be available free at the door.

Recently I was told a wonderful story (what I .think of) as a "Jewish mechanic." I ehouid explain my dtfinition of a Jewish mechanic. It's a normal type husband who, whet) asked to open a tight jar lid mtin&gts instead, to break the jar altogether. Or, who decide:; to "fix thut pipe" himcelf, instead of calling "that {joniff, the plumbsr." The pips fixer is often lucky not to turn his basement into the well-known mikvah. • Another example is the husband with two graduate degrees who an;;rily decided the way to open all those windows (which hud been painted shut) was with a screwdriver and a hammer. Need I tell you each one was opened, and left with quarter inch scars all around the wood frame. What I'm describing here are men who, God bless them, are totally inept vvhen it comes to the mechanics of repair. They're to be forgiven, because they almost always have a , zillion redeeming features. But replacing the burned out plug on the iron isn't one "of them. But wait a minute. I forgot why I started this whole bobbe-myseh. One of my friends.told me about an experience she and two other women in her office had. it seoms a new piece of time-saving machinery, vvfl3 delivered, and the boss (also the ONLY male) admonished the ladies to wait until"the man comes out to show us how, to use,, it." Meanwhile, he couldn't wait and started to fool with it himself. And like a typical male, he didn't read the directions but plunged right in and proceeded to jam the equipment. ..•••'.:•• Well, the distaff side couldn't stand it; they started fooling with it, and together managed to figure out how to, fix it. All the time the boss was fussing at them to "be careful . . . watch it; don't touch that button . . . ohmyGod." On and on.and on. To say he was astonished is to understate. To say his face was red is also to understate. Not because he was afraid of it and the women weren't. Mostly it was because he had been prowling around the office ..all morning doing a big male Chauvanist number. Declaring over and over how "it's a man's world."

The Jewish ^ Center building will be tededicated Nov. 8 at 7:30 p.m. with an unveiling of new plaques In the lobby. According to the announcement, the Jewish community is invited to attend the ceremony and view the plaques honoring the donors who contributed to the building 10 years ego. "We had found that, over the past 10 years, the original plaques have become scratched, dented, tarnished and, in oome cases, vandalized, and are no longer 'here," noted Ilene Klein,

JCC president. "We have t>tte«ipted to send a personal invitation to every one of the donors whuse names are represented on the plaques end we do hope that all of those people who contributed to the Jewish Community Center Building Fund will take time out'to participate in this ceremony," ehe said. Remarks will ba made by Howard Kaulow, president of the Jewish Federation of Omaha, Mort Trachtenbarg, chairman of the Foundation of the Jewish Federation and Mrs. Klein. The

ceremony will adjourn in time for those people who have purchased tickets to the Israel Chassidic Festival to attend the 8 p.m. performance in the Jewish Community Center Theater, it was said. There ere still opportunities for giving in the three categories represented on the plaques; $500, $2,500 and $5,000. Persons interested in making contributions to the Jewish Community Center Building Fund Endowment may contact executive director Steven J. Rod at 334-8200.

By Celia Blank JCC volunteer Sept. 30 is a historical date for the Jewish community.'It marks the day guidelines were set for the formation of a Jewish Teen Athletic Council under the auspices of the JCC Athletic Committee. An invitation to attend was extended to all the presidents, yice presidents and advisers of every teen organization. The meeting was well attended by a verbally enthusiastic group.

Council should call Mr. Arnold at 334-8200. The Council will serve as a decision-making group composed entirely of teens with two athletic representatives from each youth group. The responsibilities of the Council include the planning and scheduling of activities, the determining of playing rules, and the seating of fees after determining costs. The open forum that followed indicated that the young people would like to see a program, co-educational wherever possible, which would include volleyball, body building, swimming, bicycling, dance aerobics, team triathalon, flag football, ping pong, badminton and skiing. "See you at the J" used to be the most common phrase expressed by all Jewish teenagers in the 30a, 40a, 50s and 60s. The 20th and Dodge street J was indeed the gathering place of most

of the Jewish youngsters. What did they do at the J? There was ping pong, handball, volleyball, swimming and club meetings. But most importantly, there was a camaraderie, a feeling of belonging, of being at home! It is true there were no coeducational activities then but many, many dates were made and youthful romances flourished at the J. Lasting friendships were formed. Countless "Achar Tahnis" (after the Yom Kippur fast) dances were held at the J. Thinking of the J and its youth activities will start many of the "older" generation on a nostalgic trip through time. Who knew, then, from skiing, aerobics and triathalons? But whatever the physical and athletic activities involved, the historic Jewish Teen Athletic Council may well bring back the phrape, "See you at the J." May it be so.

The West Bank settlements-and religious/nationalist circles where Gush Emunirri flourishes have an extraordinary number of Americans. They" are mostly Orthodox olira —drawn by religious fervor. The values of settlement and pioneering appeal to the idealism that led to Aliyu in the first place. When one adds the post-Holocaust, disillusion with "all Goyim" and the feeling that the Arub terrorists will only be stopped by counter-force on the Arab population in which they — like, all guerillas — operate, you have the ingredients for terrorist actions — by idealists. These tendencies have been compounded by a weakening of the universalist impulses in modern Orthodox — which leads to denial of ethical obligation to Gentiles. Some dismiss ethical restraints vis-a-vis Gentiles as soft-headed liberalism, reflecting inauthentic assimilationist values. So wrote Meir Kabane in a column published — in a grievous lapse of editorial judgement — by Sh'ma magazine in the summer of 1983. Even more radical statements of these views are circulating in Hebrew language internal publications appea'ririg far from'the' unsympathetic eyes of liberal Jews'and non-Jews. • '•'•' .' Although they reveal disturbing phenomena, the arrests are actually good news. Neither the June 1980 bombing of West Bank mayors' cars nor the attack on the Hebrew College led to arrests. Last year, an Assistant Attorney General's investigatory report charged that higher-ups were not prosecuting Jewish West Banlt settlers' vigilante actions — and action on the report itself was, initially blocked. Everyone who cares for Israel's moral health had to be concerned. The arrests make clear that the government was not prepared initially for the emergence of Jewish terror groups. Obviously, the government was weak in the counter-intelligence needed to stop such rings — but it promptly set in motion corrective action. It is like the F.B.I, under J. Edgar Hoover, which overconcentrated on the dangers on the left and was weak in coverage of the KKK and neo-Nazi threat. The FBI did some shifting but not without failures, including agents/informers so socialized to the right that they stoodiiyWrnayhave'Corispired in assaults on liberal whites andltodeteaua"iuov<'Y.-jiii Y.ib . •': IhttiaiAnf^iiyjrn^Ves^VSbverage also stressed the government'S'tfs'e bf'liafsrr diiti-f errttrist techniques, including extended interrogations, denial of sleep, poor living conditions, hooding the head, and holding prisoners without a lawyer. While truly ,regrettable, such actions may be unavoidable in dealing with small violent groups which are not bound by democratic and legal norms. As long as the police actions are kept to a minimum and not generalized, they are legitimately deemed "necessary evils." The arrests prove not fhat anti-democratic tendencies are spreading cancerously, but that the government is willing to use the same tactics against Jewish terrorists as against Arab terrorists. This is. a good sign. It means that Arab blood is not cheap in Israel -— an important moral response to the memory that Jewish blood was held cheap. It is painful that Israeli, civil liberties are curtailed but terrorists are, by definition, not bound by legalities or reason and typically do not work in situations where full legal corroboration of the crimes is possible. When determined. minorities set out to overthrow or endanger a legal system, democracies cannot always fight back cleanly. To insist on absolutely normal procedures is to hand the aggressor advantages which could led to more innocent dead. The best analogy may be the use of C.I.A. covert activities by the U.S. government. Those who insist that all actions be public, assessable, and controlled are tying democracy's

hands — enabling a greater evil to win — or forcing public,' tonMs.tent [iru^tcution of a war that could well lead to greater .escalation and danger. There have to be intermediate, gray area options in every system which permit cases that elude normal categories to be dealt with "on the side" while preserving the basic fabric of legality. True: these exceptions risk the creation of a system of fundamental abuse. Some individuals almost certainly will suffer innocently. But this is the lesser of evils. Unless the society is totally corrupted, afterwards there will be postmortems and corrections. Compare the American treatment of its Japanese-American population in World War II. The internment of the Nisei proves that democracies sometimes allow prejudice and hysteria to hold sway and then commit injustice. The American system eventually recovered and' is now ashamed of what it did. liut societies do not stop on a dime. Until the excuses compounded and a reaction finally grew, a great many injustices were perpetrated — and yet the democratic system survived intact. It has been argued that were Israel not holding the West Bank none of this would have happened. The oft-repeated argument is that Israel must choose between the West Bank and democracy. But this is a simplification. I write as one who favors giving up West Bank territory for a true peace. There is not yet an Arab leadership that is reliably able to offer peace in return for the West Bank entity. So the need to hold down Arab terrorism will be with Israel for some time. There have been bad incidents of West Bank terrorist murders of Jewish settlers and road "accidents" in which Arab trucks endangered or killed settlers. But in a democracy only the Government can be permitted to take "unorthodox" measures as curtailing civil liberties or blowing up homes of families to counter terrorism. It is not morally neat to offer such distinctions. It is like carrying a controlled infection to cure a disease. But these moral distinctions are unavoidable right now. To alloW'any group of settlers to pursue their private agenda would release terrorism not accountable to democratic electorates or governmental checks and balances. The best proof of this distinction is what has already happened. The government agencies focus on guilty Arab terrorists and their associates as best they can identify them. The aborted bomb plot revealed a truly terrorist intention to recklessly lull innocent people. , After the arrests, the key is that strong groups of opinion leaders — especially in West Bank and Orthodox circles — dissociate themselves from Jewish terrorism. Orthodox leadership must make crystal clear that indifference to the value of innocent "Goyim" life will not become a norm in Orthodox circles. This past year, there was a'most disappointing response by a number of leading Rabbis to the shooting death of an Arab girl in r the NabUs area. The moral resources are there in Orthodoxy to make the right response. The judgments must be made unequivocally and now. Deputy Foreign Minister Yehuda Ben Meir of the National Religious Party has spoken already. The rabbis should speak up now. This would make clear that T.N.T. is a localized infection and that norms of legality and respect for innocent life remain strong. The wrjole situation is further proof that the exercise of power is testing Jewry's and Judaism's moral capacity to the limit. In the forge of history, Jewish response will strengthen — or break — the moral tradition. The outcome is in our hands.

Cofege of Jewish Learning inspired by current events

i i,

"Danzig: Treasures of a Destroyed Community," the current exhibition at the Joslyn Museum,, is tiia inspiration for a course of tlie same title being offered by the College of Jewish Learning. The Ml Kiafciiter begins on Monday, Oct. 29 at 7:30 p.m. The Danzig couriie is'u series .-of lectures about the history, aesthetics, end message of the exhibition. The opening lecture will be "Danzig: the City in Between" by Susie Drazen. This will be followed on-the five consecutive Monday evenings with Iecture3 including: "If s Beautiful, But What Do You Do With It?" by Rabbi Paul DraEsn and "Adornment: The Arts ond Worship" by Allison Perkins. Rabbi Drazen will describe the ritual functions of the artifacts end Ma. Perkins, who is tlie assistant curator of education at Joslyn Museum, will discuss the techniques and styles evident in the creation of • the objects. Magda Fried, a Holocaust survivor, will relate the experiences and reactions of other communities as compared to Danzig, in a lecture titled, "Other Communities: The Price of Disbelief." The concluding lecture will be "The Haunting Lessons of Danzig" by Rabbi Myer Kripke. Other courses in the College have been inspired by the keynote address by Julian Bond. "Equality, Minorities, and the Constitution" will be taught by Bette Evans, professor of political science at Creighton University. According to .Ms. Evans, "America likes to think of itself as a melting pot but some have, suggested that a tossed salad would be a better analogy. Far from melting, America's ethnic minorities seem to becoming' more self-conscious:"

NEW YORK (JTA) — For the fiwt time in the United States military history a rabbi has been promoted to the rank of Brigadier General, it was announced litre by the West Point .Jewish Chaps) Fund. Rabbi Israel Diaifn, 48, a practicing attorney serving in the U.S. Army n'f-erves as Colonel in the Army Chaplaincy, was iiuimnutbd for his new rank by Preoidont Reagan. The U.S. Senate confirmed the nomination. Army officials then waived the usual waiting period for a vacancy and immediately promoted Drazen to Brigadier General. Druzen was recalled to active service in 1981 to prepare the government's defense against a lawsuit that challenged the constitutionality of the Army Chaplaincy. The government won the case last February. "Feelings of honor come with every promotion," Drazen said. "However, as the first rabbi ever to reach the rank of Brigadier General, I feel a profound sense of pride, patriotism and re-

There are 1,000 choplains in the Army on active duty, 24 of whom are Jewkh. The. Army has assigned a Jewish chaplain to Weat Point, the site of the new Jewish chapel. This is the first time, since the inception pf the Military Academy, that a full-time Jewish chaplain will be available to Jewish cadets.

We have a special relationship with Israel dating bade to 1948, when President Harry Truman made the United States the first nation to recognize the new Jewish state. The United States has always bean committed to the security of Israel and must remain so. We must also continue to support Israel with economic assistance to help offset the tremendous strain on her economy, caused ir> large part by the fact that Israel is surrounded by unfriendly nations. Indeed, most of her neighbors do not even recognize the right of a Democratic Israel to exist.

The President's ' position has been | misconstrued inj | the public discus-L__ J sion of the pro-- Car.z- Esl Daubposed amendment, Cong. Dauboaid. He explained that the wall separating church and state ohould cpntinuo to cnist ninco there would be no attempt to organizo, prescribe, or mandate prayer. The concept is that "One Nation Under

God" wo'jld b' crnncd into the classroom eliminating the prohibition against prayer, the Congressman; explained. His comments on school prayer were made during a question and answer period. Cong. Daub's prepared remarks were directed primarily to the last few weeks of the 98th Congress and his continuing support of Israel. He pointed out that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) had ex : pressed its appreciation for the Congressman's support of this year's foreign aid "package and the Free Trade Area agreement : .

Daub ej;plained the benefits to Israel as a.result of the legislation and added that a final reassuring statement in the Continuing Resolution stated the sense of Congress that the United States should not ssll sophisticated weaponry-toJordan-until that country has committed itself to recognize Israel and to begin serious peace negotiations with Israel. "This, as some of you know, is a pet peeve of mine," he said. (continued on page 6)

The "festi. val" is really a contest to which world-famous cantors, composers, songwriters and performers submit entries of scripture and liturgical content set to new, original music. Winning entries, (which this year include Works by three Americans — Sol Zim, Martin Davidson and Linda Rich, as well, as others from around the world and Israel) are recorded and then sung live as the Festival goes on tour.

Those who are selected for newsgathering responsibilities will be trained to,,write objectively, and will, work as single focus reporters: concentrating on a major area of need be it synagogue'coverage, holiday coverage, performing arts, sports, etc. ' : There are many areas in which volunteers can make contributions. There is a need for those with photographic, art, graphics, design, and writing skills. The volunteers will be encouraged to work in spec-' ialized areas where they already have strong interests.

This summer a dairy restaurant was opined on the premises and has rapidly become one of the city's most attractive dining spots. In warm weather, meals are served in the garcbn, where the Arabs once camped, and where the excellent food i3 enhanced by the pleacant and historic atmosphere. Following the meal, the diners may tour the building and its exhibits. If they listen carefully and observe keenly they may hear the footsteps of Aga Rashid, or the rustling of the Shapira scrolls.

On Nov. .29 ("Partition Day"), which proArab students have turned into an anti-Israetanniversary on many campuses, the-Indiana students took out a proIsrael ad in the college paper. Last year over 200 students signed the ad and paid thsir own share of the cost. They have also formed working coalitions with non-Jewish pro-Israel students, working: with Black and Christian groups. Recently they put their coalition to the test when they succeeded in convincing the student senate to pass a pro-Israel resolution. The resolution, which passed after the activists educated their campus representatives about the Middle Bast, puts the Indiana University senate on record in support of Israel's "right to live within secure and rec- v ognized boundaries free from threats or acts of force." The resolution's passage left the anti-Israel crowd apoplectic. For them it was the clearest indication yet that it no longer had Hie field to itself. , ill

Received Peace Through Strength, Watchdog of the Treasury, Guardian of Small Business Awardu. 1. REDUCING FEDERAL DEFICITS: The solution to our deficit problem is a comprehensive deficit reduction package that is fair and equitable to all Americans. It should include reductions in tho administration's growth in defense spending, cutting , foreign aid, slowing the growth of social welfare programs, closing tax loopholes and simplifying our tax system. 2. SUBSIDIZING FARM DEBT: I support a temporary debt-restructuring plan to help economically-squeezed farmers in order to prevent a massive exodus from agriculture. I am pleased President Reagan adopted several of my suggestions when he recently announced his four-point farm credit program. 3. SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION: I have introduced legislation to achieve thi3 goal end better coordinate the goals of all Federal programs such 03 those listed above. Although federal-state cost sharing can be detrimental to states .like Nebraska with smaller tax bases, the Federal budget situation will begin to mandate greater state/local involvement in funding.

I would scrutinize "pork barrel" items so they don't pass unnoticed in larger bills. I support a strong defense but would examine this area carefully in respect to waste overruns, procurement policies and spare parts budget. Entitlement programs must ba examined closely. 2. SUBSIDIZING FARM DEBT: For the Long-term development of a more marketoriented, farjn program, it is important to redesign the loan program to give the farmer more marketing flexibility:at preferential low interest rates. Government should support farm income with a loan program that is separated from the traditional grain reserves.. .(exceeded word limit). ' 3.

Over five years, it cuts projected deficits by $800 trillion. This plan freezes all discretionary domestic programs for one year, limits entitlement and defense growth and calls for rational revenue policies without curtailing in-place personal tax reductions. 2. SUBSIDIZING FARM DEBT: Current federal farm programs should be geared to meet the critical f interest rotes, exU yiding more loan gua . .. principal cause of this debt crisis by reducing overall U.S. interest rates and improving commodity prices. 3. SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION: , High deficitsi require greater local cost shoring and less costly water projects.

REDUCING FEDERAL DEFICITS: Close large, special interest tax loopholes that drain billions of dollars from our treasury, caused by big money PACs contributing S120 million to congressional candidates that vote for special tax breaks. I have said no to PACs. Cut domestic and military wasteful spending. Republicans, Democrats, Independents need to work together. 2. SUBSIDIZING FARM DEBT: I support the bi-partisan Kerrey-Branstad shorthand long-term programs to reduce interest rates for our family farmers, reduce federal deficits, expand markets and work towards achieving a profitable price for family farm products. I oppose corporate ownership and non-resident farm tax breaks. 3. SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION: The best federal soil conservation program would be to preserve the family farm; farm families care about their land. I support soil conservation programs aimed a permanent, rather than temporary, erosion control. I also support underground water recharge proposals advocated by Senator Exon and Republican Congressman Doug Bereuter.

Retired Army brigadier general. 1. RESTRICTIVE ADMISSIONS: yes. 2. CURRICULUM: A yes or no answer is limiting. All programs at UN are under a 5 year review cycle! That process has led to approx. 25 deletions and 7 additions in the past 10 years or so — therefore we ore stressing quality but also trying to provide as full a curriculum as needs & funds permit. 3. STATE SUPPORT: Inadequate to keep the university as a top landgrant school; adequate when measured against our economic base. Additional compensation for faculty and staff plus internal reallocation will be the best future pattern. It is an excellent university system. It is a marvelous asset. It is heavily used comparatively. 4. GOVERNING BOARD: Yes. This has been a continuing personal position — not a Board position. Having an expanded University system will permit strengthening courses, & programs at some campuses, reducing or eliminating subjects at other locations, perhaps- making special centers for particular campuses, and achieving greater co-ordination of academic efforts.

WATER PROJECTS: Taxpayer funds should only ba used for projects benefiting citizens ea a whole. Private subsidies for projects iika irrigation should bo discouraged. Increased agricultural production will hurt the farmer and economy. Public monies are better spent in projects that primarily provide conservation and flood control and secondarily benefit recreation, wildlife. 2. FARM DEBT: The state's power is somewhat limited by the broad federal programs. I support President Reagan's program for farmers faced with unmanagablo debt. I favor other improvements by the state for farmers that are not directly related, but have a big impact on farming - tighor regulations on grain elevators, bank regulation, • LIHDA JEAW GAEWiFJ, 36. 13950 Greenfield Road.

WATER PROJECTS: I support the operations of Nebraska's natural resources districts. If federal funding is no longer available, an increase in the mill levy that districts can assess could cover costs of local projects and state funding, either full funding or on a matching funds basis, could be provided for larger projects. 2. FARM DEBT: I support the constitutional amendment allowing a separate classification for farmland taxation. I also support existing Nebraska Investment Finance Authority agricultural financing programs that provide loans at lower-than-market rates and would work to expand this type of program.

; STATE. CONSTITUTION ' The official ballot will include an explanation of the effects of each amendment. This is a condensation, with some amplification. Proposed Amendment No. 1 This will change the way money forfeited or seized in.the enforcement of drug laws is distributed, returning half back to counties for drug enforcement. The other half will continue to go to the schools. Vehicles taken in connection with enforcement of drug laws may be used by lav/ enforcement agencies,, or when sold, the money will go to the schools. Proposed Amendment No. 2 This would require the Commission on Judicial Qualifications to make public disciplinary action token against a judge. It also provides that if disciplinary action is found to bs not warranted, but initiation of such procedures has become publicly known, the judge involved may waive confidentiality. . Proposed Amendment No. 3 This will authorize any city or village to issue bonds for the purpose of rehabilitating substandard and blighted property, and would allow pledging the additional revenue expected from the increased value of the properties for the retirement of the bonds. Proposed Amendment No. 4 This would allow the legislature to exempt agricultural and horticultural land from the constitutional provision requiring uniform and proportionate valuation of property for tax purposes. It is not specified how this would be done, or to what extent farmland would bo taxed. It has been the de facto policy of the Nebraska,Department of Revenue to value farmland differently from other kinds of property, but the practice has been successfully challenged in court, forcing increased agricultural valuations beginning in 1985. The Amendment doc3 not guarantee continuation of the current tv/o class system; the Legislature could completely remove agricultural and horticultural land from the property tax rolls if enabled by- this Amendment. The proposed amendment has no provision for special tax valuations of other economically depressed businesses. : ( •
