Bert and Leonard Lewis we are to maintain our position as responsible family members, we must provide these funds. Leonard and I consider it a privilege to work on this campaign and we're anxious to do it together—as a family. In her role as chairwoman, Mrs. Lewis has put into place a new Women's Cabinet—a working cabinet to inqdement new ideas and to move in new directions. "In the past, the cabinet has been comprised of past chairwomen," Mrs. Lewis explained. "Today, the trend in most major cities is to appoint a group of women who are currently involved in community, have the desire to help and the willingness to work, and who will take on the obligation of a specific job. "The 1988 Women's Cabinet will be a sounding board—a team—the first string— the leaders who will recruit and train the players who, in lum, will inspire lis all." Mr. Trachtenbarg also announced the Omaha Federation Campaign will begin earlier this year to coincide with UJA (United Jewish Appeal) and CJF (Cotmcil of Jewish Federation) national fimd-raising campaigns.

(ContiDoed from Page 1) and the All-People's Congress, a front for the Marxist Workers World Party. "While claiming to advocate brotherhood, equality and human rights, " he warned, "they are actually promoting antidemocratic agendas." The radical left today, he went on, "fervently supports the Palestine Liberation Organization and what it defines as antiZionism is sometimes in reality antiSemitism." The report cites several examples of far left literature containing antiSemitic stereotypes including allegations that "Zionists" are engaged in conspiracies and control the media. The far left's hostility toward Zionism, the report adds, "is noticeably similar to that of the Soviet Union" with Israel seen as a crucial ally of the United States and the Western world and the primary obstacle to the triumph of Marxism in the Middle East. ADL cites the Soviet Union, Libya, Vietnam, Nicaragua and Cuba as the regimes regarded by the radical left as worthy of emulation. The U.S. Farmers Association, according to the report, has published in its organ the U.S. Farm News, numerous articles noticeably hostile to Israel, American Jews and Judaism. The March, 1987 issue, for instance, carried an article by long-time Holocaust denier Bradley Smith which attacked the credibility of Nobel laureate and Holocaust survivor Eiie Wiesel, and even promoted an upcoming book by Smith called, "Confessions of a Holocaust Revisionist." (Smith was the publisher of an anti-Semitic journal called "Prima Facie" whose proclaimed aim was to inform "the press and media about the censorship, suppression of free inquiry, the taboos, quackery, cultidm, disinformation and pathology commonly used to prbipote belief in the Holocaust, and the 'genocide' of the 'six million' on the one hand, and that used to stifle critical examination of the evidence used to support those tales on the other." (emphasis added)). Usually Holocaust denial propaganda is

found in farright circles, now it is seeping into the rhetoric of the far-left as weU. U.S. Farm News has also carried reports ridiculing Jews as the "(Self) Chosen People, having learned nothing but 'terrorism' from their Nazi killers ..." and has referred to Israeli leaders as "Zionszis." I^ contrast, the ADL report says, U.S. Farm News generally reflects a sympathetic view of So; viet actions and policies by attacking criticisms of the Soviets as "vUe lies and calumnies." • • Other groups cited by the league's,i^jjort include: * The U.S. Peace Council, which supports Soviet foreign policy and opposes the Camp David Accords. * The Guardian, self-defined as an "independent radical news weekly," with Circulation of over 40,000, is the single most influential publication on the far left today. * Jewish Affairs, a publication of the U.S. Communist Party since 1972. * Mobilization for Survival, a New Yorkbased leftist umbrella organization claiming to have 200 affiliates nationwide. •The Socialist Workers Party, with about 2,000 members, advocates "a revolutionary dictatorship of the exploited classes." Along with its youth group, the Young Socialist Alliance, it is bitterly hostile to Israel and enthusiastically supports Cuba, Nicaragua, Libya tmd the P.L.O. • November 29ih Committee for Palestine plays a major rote in the campaign against Israel, working closely with the Workers' World Party. • The All-African People's Revolutionary Party, which describes itself as a "permanent, revolutionary, Pan-African political party" fighting for "the destruction of capitalism, imperialism... racism, Zionism and apartheid." Headed by one-time civil rights leader Stokely Carmichael, known today as Kwame Toure, the group has long been tainted with anti-Semitism. The report was prepared by the Research Department «f ADL's Civil Rights Division.

The Jewiah PKM is happy to announce that a theme has \. been selected for the upcoming New Year edition, and that L the participation of the community is invited. - For this issue, we will be interviewing portidpante to find out what major influences have had a lasting impact on their lives and their careers. Th« influence may have been an individual, or a group of individuals, such as a teacher, or a number of teachers. The influence may have been a book, a seminar, a meet' log, an experience—there are no limitations being placed on the infUience except one: To avoid similar stories, we do not plan to accept immediate members of one's family as an allowable influence. So, if you know of someone who has been influenced strongly in the course of bis or her life, or in the course of a career or volunteer pursuit, please pass the individual's name along to me for consideration.

Parashat Korah The Golden Test Most Jews who know the 99th Psalm casually know it from the Sabbath Eve Service, where it is one of the "coronation psalms" (God as King) which are used in the liturgy for the Kabbalat Shabbat—the greeting and welcoming of Shabbat. In it the name of Samuel is joined to the names of Moses and Aaron, as special servants of the Lord. This verse testifies to the high place that Samuel occupied in the ancient Jewish tnind, as though he were the Aaron and Moses of fu's time. Thrust into religious and political leadership at a critical time, Samuel served as the transition person between the Judges—he was one of them—and the Kings who followed—and Samuel anointed two of them. In our Sabbath Torah reading we read the astonishing, but human, story of a major rebellion against Moses and Aaron, led by the infamous Korah. And the Haftarah, chosen by the liturgists with unfailing taste, bells of Samuel's defense, some 200 years later, against what he considered dissatisfaction with his own leadership... Here again: Moses and Aaron in their time—and Samuel in his time. Interestingly enough, the indignant cry that comes instinctively to the lips of

Moses and to the lips of Samuel.is the same: From whom have I taken anything? Whom have 1 wronged? How have I enriched myself? And this is the golden test of leadership. Neither Moses nor Samuel was to have the joy of having a son succeed him; neither was to be the beginning of a dynasty; neither was to have a town or a region named after him. But the golden test was this: Who can say that I have been a leader in order to divert wealth to my own use? In all my labor, is it not apparent that it was for my people, and in no way for myself? Abraham Lincoln was the subject of libraries of anecdotes. One of them had to do with his shining his own shoes, although he was president... Golda Meir personally prepared tea for her guests, including important government officials. The Talmud records that some of the greatest scholars of the ages w.ere humble artisans and laborers, shoemakers, carpenters and the like. There are constant scandals in the leadership of all kinds of human endeavors, in government, in religion, in education, in the military. Gold is the golden test: have the leaders been selfless, like Moses and Samuel? Or has gold and what it will buy somehow stuck to them?

Blumkin's Adult Day Care offers daily supervision By Joanie Jacobson Federation public relations director Adult Day Care, a program offered by the Federation's Bureau for the Aging at the Rose Blumlun Home, provides professional daily sup'ervision for persons who cannot be at home alone without some degree of assistance. "It is a source of relief and respite for a husband or wife, son or daughter whose responsibility it is to render that assistance on a continuing basis," remarked Don Klein, President of the Bureau. "It is our hope that more and more faniiiies take advantage of this service on a weekly, daily or hourly basis. Anything can be arranged," said Mr. Klein, "—it just takes a phone call." Adult Cay Care is available between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday for persons over 65 years of age, including those who use a walker or wheelchair. The cost is $15 per day. Lunch and bathing services are optional. "The focus is on socialization rather than medical care," explained Cherill Samson, head nurse at the Blumkin Home.
