Jewish Federations endorse General Assembly resolution By Mark Joffe NEW ORLEANS (JTA) — Leaders of Jewish federations across North America overwhelfflingly endn^ed a strong worded reaolution imploring Israel to remove the so-called "Who Is a Jew" issue froto its political agenda. "The issue, with its ideological, moral and communal implications, should not be decided in the context of political accommodation <x to ensure the maintenance or downfall of a particular govoimient," the Council of Jewish Fedarations General Assembly said in a resolution adopted after a fiery debate hare. "World Jewry should not be divided by a political approach to the issue of 'Who Is a Jew,' " the assembly said. While aimultaneoualy affirming its "continued total support for Israel," the body of some 3,000 delegates also sternly warned lanaU leaders "not to undaraatimate ths itnngthof feeling on thia matter" in the Diaspora "Wa diract the leadership of CJF to convey to ths political leaderaUp in laraal, in tita moat vtgorous, tmmadiata and continuing way poasible, that they must not risk dividing the world Jewish community as th^y seek now to form a government and thereafter," the assembly stated in the reaolution. The reaolution, drafted and reviaed only a few hours before it was presented, was adopted mainly intact after a vodfarous and sometimee raucous debate on the subject, at a plenary session that originally was scheduled to be devoted to an entirely different aubjaet: the quality of Jewiab life. The decision to introduce the reaolution a day before •11 other raaolutiooa are to be conaidtred by the assembly waa apparmtljr both • renonee to the toth of feeling here about this iaaue and a raeognition of the opportunity to impact the Is-
raeli political process before the govemmoit is solidified. At issue is an agreement Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir has made with four Israeli religious parties—in exchange for their support—to win Knesset adoption of an amendment redefining who is considered Je«dah in Israel. The amendment would bar those converted to Judaism by non-Orthodox rabbis from qualifying for automatic Israeli citizenship under the Law of Return. The Reform and Conservative movements, who represent some 90. percent of affiliated Jews in North America, consider the amendment an affront to their legitimacy. What became clear here was that the vast majority of delegates feel such a change in the law would be an afboDt to the entire Diaspora. "It is an attempt to disenfranchiae fnmi the Jewish body politic the majority of North American Jaws," Mendel Kiflen. chairman of the Jewish Aggncy Board of Oovemora, erflaimed in a paaaionate ineech introducing the reeouition. "It is not only an American ioaue," he said. "It goes to the heart of concern of every Jew, wherever he lives, including the State of Israel." The proposed amendment "tampers with the unity of the Jewish community," Kaplan argued. "It jec^ardicea the concept of the cantrality of Israel for every single Jew."

Israeli author urges /strong, wise response'
p No money, please '
There is a strong tendency in America to throw money at problems and then consider the problems solved. We have a problem with drugs so we throw money at the problem and lo, we got dealers and users crawling out of the woodwork. We have a problem with crime so we throw money at it and we now have so many crimes we don't have enough room to lock up the prisoners. We have a problem with education so we build new schools, hire scads of teachers and many of our kids still can't read, spell, or speak property, but they sure can throw a football or sink a basket. Speaking of kids, don't they represent the future? Don't we often say that this has to be done, or that has to be done for the children because they will be the future— the future of our country—the future of our Jewish community? Let's talk briefly about our Jewish community and one of the major programs aimed at helping our youth. I refer to the B'nai B'rith Youth Organization which in Omaha has two chapters for girls and two chapters for boys, BBYO also has a professional leader in the person of Kara Marks, a young lady with excellent credentials for helping our Jewish youth develop. She holds a bachelor of arts degree in social work and a certificate in criminal justice from the University Qf Wisconsin. Ms. Marks, although based in Omaha, is director of the Mid-America Combelt Council office. She is responsible for overseeing the BBYO program in the area as well as representing the agency to the Jewish and non-Jewish communities. So when Ms. Marks speaks, we should listen. Her concern at the moment is the need for young adults to serve as volunteer advisors for the BBYO chapters in Omaha. "The chapters cannot function without advisors and right now Omaha is id big trouble ... the problem seems to be that not many adults want to devote the time to work with and help the kids," she said. This gets us to the core of the problem. Money—the allpurpose salve for all ailments is not the prescription for this disorder. The ctire is people—people in the form of yohinteers. We're not talking about battalions, legions, or even platoons. We're talking about the need for two young men and two young women to work with Omaha's four chapters. If we can't come up with four advisors, programming goes down the drain, our children are short-changed, and the future doesn't look as promising as it should. Money may talk, but in the case of BBYO, dollars are not the answer—volunteers are. Call Kara Marks at 334-8200. ext. 235.

By Monria Maline An Israeli author has called for a "strong and wise" response from American Jews on the "Who is a Jew" issue. Ze'ev Chafets told about 60 attending the Jewish Book Month program at the Jewish Community Center Sunday that "Who is a Jew" is world Jewish issue not an Israeli issue. Mr. Chafets, an author and political commentator, said that ammding the Law of Return in Israel will not affect anyone living in larad since all religious activities in Israel are supervised by Orthodox rabbis. "The amendment to the Law of Return is directed against Reform and Conservative rabbis and basically is a statement of principle,''
Mr. Chafets said. Mr. Chafets asserted that the impetus for amending the Law of Return didn't come from Israel, but came from Brooklyn, N.Y. He said the Lubavitcher rebbe exerted influence on the religious parties in Israel and prompted the move to amend as a condition of the religious parties joining the upcoming coalition government, "Anyone who wants to convert to Judaism in Israel has to go throui^ an Orthodox conversion so it really doesn't affect us at all," Mr. Chafets said. He suggested that it would be easy for Israeli politicians to agree with the amendment, but not so easy if they were convinced that they would have to pay a
price for that action! while Labor is similar to the He said that American Republican Party in the Jews should react to this United States with a solid "disastrous situation" not bloc representing the by throwing a tantrum, but wealthy class and the better by playing hard ball with Is- educated. raeli politidans.

policy potentially violated the Constitution's equal protection clause. Black groups supported the admissions policy. Hooks said the press "had many black folk believing ... that the whole Jewish community was opposed to affirmative action. "In fact, when I first came to this job 11 years ago, I spoke to the Union of American Hebrew Congregations and they adopted a resolution of support for af^ firmative action." Most Jewish organizations support affirmative action, but have opposed the use of quotas. Hookr, Jackson, Rep. Walter Fauntroy (D-D.C.) and three rabbis spoke and lit candles during a 25minute ceremony, with each candle represraiting one million Jews who died during the Holocaust. The six lit a seventh candle as a "flame of hope" and interlocked arms. "Some things I guess we took for granted some yesrs ago and we started working on things that seemed to be more immediate, more presaing. more dwnanding,'' Hooks said. "And then we ktoked at it and discovered that this relationship which we took for granted was creaking. "So what we have to do is get it out that not an blacks are anti-Semitic and that not all Jews are anti-black, but that the large body of blacks and Jews have a reason to work together," Hooks said.

waadl^© m©\578 Memories of Hanukkah past include spelling the name "Chanukah", receiving as much as a 50 cent piece from a relative for "Chanukah gelt" and a lack of decorations and exciting celebrations aside from the lighting of the Chanukah menorah each night. Those days are gone and the younger generations today celebrate with much more ardor, but with it all there is still a love for traditional potato pancakes or "latkes" as they are more deliciously known. So for your eating pleasure on Hanukkah this year, try one or more of these recipes. They are each a little different and come from a variety of Kosher cookbooks from all over the country. And remember, just as apples and honey
taste good all year in addition to Rosh Hashonah, so do potato latkes taste good all year served either with a milk or a meat meal, depending on the ingredients. Have a Happy Hanukkah! POTATO LATKES RECIPE NO, 1 2 cups grated raw potatoes, measure after draining 1 egg, beaten 1 teaspoon salt 1 heaping tablespoon flour or matzo meal pinch of baking powder I small onion, grated (optional)
Combine all ingredients, mix well, drop pancake mixture by the tablespoon onto a hot skillet generously greased. Fry on both sides until brown. Serve piping hot with sour cream, or with applesauce as an accompaniment to pot roast, (should serve 4 to 6 people). RECIPE NO. 2 6 Medium sixe potatoes pinch baking soda VA cup flour 2 beaten eggs pinch of salt and pepper Mix and prepare as in recijDe No. I—and enjoy!

IS THERE A HANUKKAH TREE By YoMf Bea
Shlomo HaKohen There ia an ancient connection between Hanukkah and the olive tree. It was olive oil that was used to light the menorah of the Temple —a tradition that began after the exodus froni Egypt. For it was in the Sinai des' ert that the people were commanded to light the menorah of the Tabernacle with "pure olive oil of pounded olives." Centuries later, when the Maccabees entered Jerusalem to rededicate the Temple, they found a small jar of pure olive oil to use in the lighting of the menorah. It was this small amount : of oil that burned for eight days—an event that became : known as the miracle of Hanukkah. Our ancestors saw a link between the menorah and the olive tree, as \ expressed in the vision of : the prophet Zechariah: "I saw a menorah of gold ... There were two olive trees beside the menorah, one on each aide of it " (Zechariah 4,2). For it is not only the olive oil which gives forth light, but also the olive tree itself. Nogah Hareuveni, Director of the Biblical Land: scape Reserve, explains in ^ his book "Nature In Our ', Biblical Heritage," that the underside of the olive leaf is covered with miniature whitish scales, while its upper side is dark green. This contrast of shades produces ' a unique silvery sheen when the wind rustles the leaves.
Nov. 25, II
And when a strong wind blows through the trees of an olive grove, one can notice shafts of silvery light that seem to juitip from tree to tree. And so, perhaps it was only natural that the prophet Zechariah saw two olive trees standing either side of the menorah. His vision became part of the passage read by Jews in synagogues around the world on the Sabbath of Hanukkah. Yet despite this vivid image, Jews never developed a custom of putting olive trees next to their Hanukkah menorahs. One reason may be because Jewish tradition opposes the cutting down of trees, especially fruit-bearing trees, for any reason other than the need for fuel or shelter. However, while the Jews were encouraged to respect trees and plant life, they were forbidden to defy any aspect of nature—perhaps in order to discourage the people from emulating the nature worship of their pagan neighbors. For while the prophets saw the wisdom of the Creator reflected in nature, they strongly opposed the worship of nature. And this could be another reason why Jews do not put trees next to the menorah. Therefore, only one part of the olive tree became part of the celebration and lore of Hanukkah, and that was the oil of the olive. The sages not«d that one must first go through the difficult process of pressing the olives and refining the resulting mixture before one gets the pure olive oil that
will give light. They saw in the olive a reminder that there is a certain light that comes into the world only after great effort and hardship. The light from the leaves of the olive tree, on the other hand, doea not come as a result of human effort. It comes and goes with the wind and has no power to sustain itself. And so it became a Hanukkah custom for Jewish men and women to light the menorah with the oil from olives. For in this small fruit of the Land of Israel lies a great message—the promise of an enduring light to those who struggle in the search for truth and freedom. HANUKKAHFESTIVAL OF LIGHT By Dvora Waysman
Hanukkah is one of the loveliest festivals celebrated in Israel. The oppressive heat of the summer is over and, as evening approaches, the lights from menotahs are burning on myriad windowsills like diamonds gleaming on black velvet. Voices are raised in song as the candles are being lit... "Maoz Tsur"—O Fortress, Rock of my salvation. Unto Thee it is fitting to give praise... Light is the main characteristic of the eight-day festival, and light has great significance in Judaism. In the Tahnud (Brachot 17A) we pray: "Lord, may it be Thy will to place us on the side of light" and we are told in the mystic Tikkunei Zohar 13C: "There is a palace of light that opens only
to him who occupies himself with the light of Torah." Candles have a major role as ceremonial objects. Almost every Jewish celebration incorporates the use of candles at some point and fire is universally recognized as one of the basic elements of the world—mysterious, frightening, even mesmerizing. In the Kabbalah, the book of mysticism, the image of a multicolored flame emanating from a candle is taken as a metaphor for God's relation to the world and man. The flame adheres to it, relies on it and seems to emanate from the candle, yet it is a distinct and separate entity. The blue center of the flame remains constant, but the outside is always in motion and changes color. Our tradition of incorporating the lighting of candles in a celebratory way enhances the natural power and mystique of fire. At Hanukkah, we light either small multicolored wax candles or oil lamps. The accepted custom is to increase tlw number from one to eight as the festival proThere was a Talmudk dispute and an opinitm was ventured that we should begin with eight candles, decreasing by one each night, but it was overruled as we should be constantly increasing joy and light in the world. We place candles in the menorah beginning from the right side and morving to the left with each day. of the festival. The kindling begins with the lighting the Shammash
not mentioned. Some scholars believe that they were an adaptation of a prevailing custom at the time of lighting fires at the winter solstice when the sun is farthest from the equator. However, no matter what their origin, the Hanukkah lights are a most fitting symbol of the festival's real message. They represent the Temple candelabrum which Judah and his followers had rekindled as a symbol of rededication.
or "beadle"—an extra candle used to kindle the others, and the recitation of two blessings: "Blessed art Thou, O Lord our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with Your commandments and commanded us to kindle the Hanukkah lighu. ' "Blessed are Thou, O Lord our God, King of the niverse, who performed miracles for our fathers in days of old at this season." Interestingly enough, Hanukkah is the only important Jewish festival that is not mentioned in the Bible. It beg^ins on 25th of KisleV to commemorate the victory of Judah the Maccabee and his followers over the forces of the Syrian king, Antiochus IV, and the rededication of the defiled Temple in Jerusalem in 166 B.C.E. The central theme is the victory of Hebraism over Hellenism-that is, Jewish over Greek values. It is a festival of liberty, celebrate ing not only the independence of one people, but the right to freedom of all peoples. The only religious ceremony invdved is the nightly kindling of lights and a brief statement in Hebrew that the ceremony commemorated "the miracles, deliverance, deeds of poWer and acts of salvation" wrought by God at this season, and that the lights are not to be used for any utilitarian purpose—"They are only to be seen." Even though the story appears in the Book of the Maccabees, the lights are
Holiday appeal NEW YORK (JTA) - A record (64.8 million in Israel Bonds was purchased during the recent Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur appeals for Israel Bonds, representing an 8 potent increase over last year's results. The bond appeals were conducted in 1,183 synagogues throughout North America. "While there was concern this year about the effect of the Palestinian uprising on bond Bubacriptioiis, the increased High Holy Day response by the mass of the North American Jewish community has been extremely eneouraging," said Gen.

By Snaan BfanlNiiun NEW YORK (JTA) About 3O0 students from Manhattan's Ramaz School, each clutching a yahrzeit candle, marched at twilight to remember the fate of those they had never known who perished in Germany 50 years ago. Approaching Park Avenue, where poUce and media held bade the rushhour traffic for the children, 12-year-old Aaron Bayer recalled "about 20 cousins" he never knew in Mielec, Galicia. "We lived in an area that was annihilated," Bayer said, his hands tightly held about the flickering glass. Judy Sambol said the commemoration meant "a lot" to her. "My grandparents came from Europe. We shouldn't forget about it," the 12year-old said. They were led by five members of the Sbomrim Society of Jewish police, who were providing a "symbolic presence at almost every synagogue in the city," said off-duty officer Louis Weiser. taA MILUON INVESTED TEL AVIV (JTA) - Israel is chirping over getting the bird—to the tune of $9.5 million.

By Rabbi Myer S. Kripke ©1988
Parashst VaYishlah Thanksgiving—what are our values? Jews generally see red when someone says, clinching an argument, "After all, this is a Christian country!" At the very least, Jews are made very uneasy when someone says that. The reason is, of course, that it is almost always the wrong kind of person who says it, and for the wrong reasons. Jews are not visitors here, nor guests, but Americans, like other Americans, with the same duties and responsibilities, and the same rights and opportunities. We therefore do not welcome language that seems to exclude us from the duties and responsibilities and the rights and opportunities of other Americans. ' But, as we come to Thanksgiving and bask today in its warm afterglow, I should like to say that thwe is one sense in which I welcome people saying, "After all, this is a Christian country." Note, to begin with, the perfect Thanksgiving prayer that Jacob utters in our Sidrah. Fearing the expected meeting with his brother Esau, Jacob prays: "0 God, I am unworthy of all the kindness that you have BO steadfastly shown Your servant: with my staff alone I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two camps. Deliver me, I pray..." ' It was Mr. Justice Brandels, two generations ago, who called attention to the fact that never before in the history of the Diaspora have Jews lived in a land where the baaic vahiee were so
close to those of Judaism. Those values? From the Yom Kippur Haftarah: "This is the fast 1 desire, to unlock fetters of wickedness ... to let the oppressed go free; to break oH every yoke. It is to share your bread with the hungry, and to take the wretched poor into your home; when you see the naked, to clothe him..." From that Haftarah and a thousand other places in the Bible and in the rabbinic literature, Talmud and Midrash, those values shine forth. Shall we not be happy that they are ensconced in our Declaration of Independence, and in our Constitution and Bill of Rights? Shall we not be happy that those enlightened cteists and righteous Christians who wrote thoee dociunents received those values in the Christian tradition that adopted them itom Judaism?' In this sense, Christianity is a branch of Judaism, a branch that has grown much larger than its roots. When an anti-Semitic Christian calls this a Christian country (and we are reminded of this every November-December) Jews, including me, bristle. But when a Christian defends the rights of people, gives comfort to the afflicted, gives attention and help to ue deprived, and demands justice for all God's children, I am by no means unhappy if he does this proclaiming that he does so because he is a Christian. Thank God he really is.

By Joanie Jacobaon Federation public relationa director The Women's Business and Professicmal Division of tlie Jewish Federation of Omaha will present "Women and the Art of Negotiating," at the Highland Country Club on Dec. 7, beginning with cocktails at 5:30 p.m., dinner and program at 6 p.m. Denny Greenberg, cochairman of the B & P Division, announced that Susan Ogbom, director of employee development at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, ?nll speak. "I met Susan seven or eight years ago when she was working at Union Pacific" said Mrs. Greenberg. "I've always been impressed with her skill and her ability to relate to people. Her resume speaks for itself. She's proven she can . effectively analyze problems
Susan Ogbom and take appropriate action—her energy alone is inspiring." In addition to a cotificate in management from Smith College, Ms. Ogbom received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Education from Northern Kentucky University and her M.S. in Coun-

seling from the University of Nebraska. She recently received the Spirit of Service Award from the National Council of Christians and Jews and, for several years, was named one of the Outstanding Young Women of America. "The first question to ask yourself when negotiating is 'does the ongoing relationship mattw?' " Ms. Ogbom explained. "Whether or not it'does or doesn't, determines your strategy. "The mistake many women make is assuming the relationship always matters. Men almost always assume it never matters. Success lies in finding a balance. "There are questions to ask yourself when considering negotiation," she continued. "Are you getting everything you -think you deserve? If not, why not? Who determines ' your worth? How can you change someone's mind? "Most of us give up so quickly—we don't think we have any control or make an impact, but we do." "We're always negotiating," added Mrs. Greenberg—" in our relationships with spouse, employer, children or friends. Our effectiveness depends on our skill level Susan will focus on negotiation at the

workplace, but it can be applied to our everyday lives." Mrs. Greenberg emphasized this is not a fundraisLag event. "The Federation has offered ongoing programs to B & P women for the last several years," she explained. "It's a great way for Jewish, working women in Omaha to network and make a Jewish connection in our community. We're very proud of this effort and very greateful to the Federation for continuing to address this need." Earlier in the year, the Federation conducted an interest survey in this division. A variety of program topics was Usted and the women were asked to rate each of them. "Women and the Art of Negotiating" was the most popular choice among those who responded.

.M^ If you want an energizing workout, you should join Millie Katelman's exercise class at the Rose Bltimkin Jewish Home. Millie ia enthusiastic as she counts in Yiddish and sings along while the residents stretch and kvetch. During October, the residents enjoyed visits by Rabbi Azriel, Rabbi Brooks and Cantor Firestone. The residents had the opportunity to vote in the general election. Special ballots were brought to the Home by the League of Women Voters. This was a wonderful way to enable the residents to continue to participate in the democratic privilege of voting. Jim Johnson, the everpopular one-man band, performed, school days were recalled as the residents started the day's activities with the pledge of alliance and then participated in music, spelling, gym. geography and civic classes. The residents enjoyed returning to the "old classroom". Ricklie Hoyt entered two paintings in the art show by local artists that was recently displayed in the JCC Gallery and she sold both paintings. Isn't that something! Congratulations! Our thanks end apprecia-
tion to Mrs. Meyer°(Nettie) Katzman who donated two gorgeous afghans to L.O.V.E. They are being saved to use as prizes for our annual spring fundraiser. We are looking for a substitute piano player, for a three-month period, for the weekly Songfest. One hour a week, or every other week, will ensure that this activity continues during the winter. During November, Fannie Stein, Agnes Kahn and Mac Newmark celebrated their birthdays. Mae Ostrow, Cecila Levey, Esther Hart, Ruth Klopper, Gertrude Forbes and Aaron Devine were recently welcomed as new residents. The Thanksgiving Fest was enhanced by holiday decorations. Thanks to Sharon Conlon and Burt Benson for the display. The annual Hanukkah party will be held Dec. 3 at 2 p.m. Come on out and join the festivities. Visitors are welcome. Hanukkah cards are available in the Gift Shop which is open every day, except Saturday, fn»n M p.m. Call Ruth Goldstein. 391-0686 or Bemice Cohen, 656-3423, for congratulatoiy or memorial carids. Gold cards are available.
