Women create new division for Federation campaign By Jill Kusbaer Belmont Women's Division publicity The Women's Division of the Jewish Federation of Omaha has added a new division lo the UJ A/Federation Campaign, a Young Women's Division for those aged 25 to 35 years, according to Women's Division director, Jan Perelman. . Chairing the division this year are Kimberly Robinson and Cindy Goldberg, who noted that the new division is comprised of 230 women, making it the largest group inth^ campaign^ "We're hoping to reach as many people as possible, to inform them about the workings of the Jewish Federation, and hopefully to get them actively involved," Ms. Goldberg said. "These are the women who someday will lead the campaign, and will instill in their children a sense of responsibility to our Jewish community." The Young Women's Division held its first event on Nov. 5 at the home of Ms. Robinson. Featured speaker that evening was Irene Opdyke, a "Right* eous Gentile" who helped to rescue Jews during the Ilol()caust. Ms. Opdyke relayed her experience of hiding 12 'Jews in the villa of a German major for whom she worked, an act that ifdiscovered, would have led to her own exevulion she said. Speaking to groups

"G-d gave me my freedom, so that is why I travel and speak." She noted that, "You are- the most important partof UJA. It's up to you to raise the new generalion. You will raise your children to know about the Holocaust and will teach , them to be preud tl)^l they are Jewish." . . •.' She also spoke.of the im. portance of supporting Israel. "To this day I 'qi very pro-Israel. If Israel had been a state before the war, there would not have been six million innocent victims."' • She added, "Although I was not born Jewish, in my heart, I am Jewish:" Ms. Robinsbn said the guest, ,speaker "was incredible. She is a rare person who participated in a dahgerouB ai^d overwhielm-

ingly heroic act. We often hear the Jewish perspective about the Holocaust, and it was wonderful and unique to hear- about it from a non-Jewish viewpoint." . Ms. Goldberg, who cohosted the event, called Ms. Opdyke's presentation "tremendous. Her words were powerful and moving, and she showed how important it is .to stand up and be Jewish. 11 was an emationai "'v.' ning;" ^ Following the preacni.i lion, Ms. P*relman said that, "I felt that listening to Irene speak was our continuity with the past and. the future.

Council's warning By David Friedman WASHINGTON (JTA(The U.S. policy limiting the number of Soviet Jews that can enter the United Stales as refugees is endangering Jews facing growing anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union, the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews warns.

Scholar urges outreach to unaffillated

By Morris Maline "The largest, fastest-growing Jewish group in America is the unaffillated," Temple Israel's scholar-inresidence, said Sunday. Dr. David Ellenson, who is affiliated with California universities, including Hebrew Union College, predicted that outreach to the intermarried as well as aggressive programming will project Reform Judaism into the largest Jewish movement in the 21st century. Dr. Ellenson lectured over the weekend on a range of Jewish topics and issues including comparative Judaism, history, theology and philosophy. At the Sunday session, he spoke on Reform and American Judaism: Where we are, Where we are going. Dr. Ellenson pointed to the latest statistics showing intermarriage running at the rate of 52 percent and described the process as the "logical outgrowth of What it means to live in an open society." He pointed out that Jews have experienced high rates oi intermarriage in the third generations, no matter where they have lived.' Dr. EUenson asserted that many changes are on the horizon for Reform Judaism, including greater ritual observance as American Jews continue to search for spiritual meaning. Discussing the context of Reform Judaism within American Judaism, Dr. Ellenson told about 150 attending the program that in a pluralistic society choices and. options increase at a dizzying pace. He said that while modernity dissolves tradition leaving people feeling homeless, modernity also supports tradition in that people want a sense' of belonging. He pointed to the intermarried as a "source of Reform strength" and predicted "tremendous institutional growth" in the next century. Dr. Ellenson said that a major concern he has'is that the gap in acceptance of Reforni And Conservativv Judaism by Israel may grow widi'i cuusinK problem.^ iii American Jewish relatidn*

Working together to build a stronger Jewish Omaha Editor's Note: The following article was submitted by Rabbi Aryeh Azriel, Temple Israel; Rabbi Paul Drazen, Beth El Synagogue: and Rabbi Mark llrkowitz, Beth Israel Synagogue.

Lessons for Humanity In last week's editorial, I alluded to the fast pace of activity on the Jewish scene in.Omaha. All of the synagogues are busily engaged in programming, the Jewish Community Center has on display one of the most outstanding exhibits ever offered in this community, the Federation LiWary is producing its annual book fair—toi name a few. This is as suitable a time as any to pause and thank the scores of volunteers and the dedicated members of the professional staff who are working so diligently to provide us with a vibrant Jewish life. One of the most remarkable events to take place here-the Anne Frank In the World program, involving an exhibit at Joslyn Castle and numerous events throughout the community, attracted many thousands. Open to the general community, the Anne Frank program provided a glimpse of the Holocaust to Omaha's non-Jewish community including students from many schools in the area. Holocaust survivors and hidden children gave of themselves, some telling their stories for the first time... • There's no way to report oi) the emotional impact (these true-life experiences leave except to say that every account, every word, sends an arrow-like message to the heart of hate-mongers and Holocaust revisionists. Now, I would like call your attention to a Bill Moyers interview with Elie Wieael that premieres Nov. 27 at 9 p.m. on PBS. I had an opportunity to preview thd broodcaat and I .recommend that readers of this column not only tune in, but also tape the program so that the message can be passed on to children and grandchildren. Mr. Wiesel, a survivor of Auschwitz, a r^pient of the Nobel peace prize, and a conscientious witness to the Holocaust, speaks about hate and anti-Semitism and his wqrds should be part of the learning experience of children yet unborn. Let me doee this week'scolumn with a word of thanks to Jerry Hoberman and former Omahan Rabbi Barry Weinstein, 1 understand that Rabbi Weinstein contacted some of his friends in Omaha alerting them to the danger uisiana faced with the possible election of David Duke the governor's office in that state. Mr. Hoberinan got the word out in this community and some 100 people contributed an estimated $10,000 to help defeat candidate Duke. As I said at the outset, the Omaha Jewish community stands tall at this moment in history.

Our Jewish community is multifaceted, as are all Jewish communities. All parts of the community are important to help foster a "full service" community. Federation is a major part of Omaha's Jewish community. We, the rabbis of Omaha's congregations, believe that the synagogues play a vital role in the structure of the Jewish community and the everyday life of Omaha's Jews. Their role, and the attendant need to support the synagogues, is important to each and every Jew and to the future of Jewish Omaha. Who is responsible for teaching our children to be Jews? Who will assure that there will be a Jewishly educated, Jewishly committed generation 20 years from now? Who will provide the teachers and the rabbit and the scholars for that generation? Who will assure those many other communal and national Jewish organizations a reservoir of Jews on which they wiU be able to draw for their membership a source of years hence? Who will provide the State of Israel with a continuing crop of understanding and supportive Jews? When

rites, of passage are to be noted, when death comes, where do people turn for help? The answer in every case, of course, is the synagogue—our financially pressed, over-burdened, shortstaffed synagogues! For religious life it is the synagogue—the synagogue and those camps and seminars and multitudinous educational effort that they sustain, which is the source and lifeblood. The synagogue is where Jews are made, where the individual's soul and community are joined. It is the place where modernity and eternity cross-fertilize, where the seeds of Jewish identity are sown. All other institutions in Jewish life are created by Jews: only the synagogue creates Jews—child by child, family by family, minyan by minyan. Synagogues make Jews: Federation helps those Jews to work together to meet many conununal needs. The community must do everything possible to insure the centrality of the synagogue in Jewish life, because the synagogue is where Jewish living takes pl^ce, serving as the guarantor of Jewish well-being and pivoting force of Jewish spirituality into the 21st century. With the opportunity to work as partners with Federation, we will build the kind of Jewish community we want to see in Omaha.

No to Duke By Thomas Fox KANSAS CITY, Mo. (JTA)-David Duke's defeat Ln Louisiana helped bolster my faith in the human spirit. Yet the election left me with the deflating realization that 55 percent of the state's white voters cast their ballots for the former Nazi sympathizwFollowing the election, Duke quickly promiatd the nation that we have' not heard the last of him. That's too bad. I am a Catholic, and an editor of a Catholic newsweekly. It was, then, particularly difficult to listen to Duke portray himself as a "Christian" and (o hear him speak about the role Chhstian redemption had played in his rejection of his recent Nazi pastPoor Christianity. Its good name never ceaaes to be abusied by scoundrels. I have always thought that Christianity, at the core, teaches love, even—no, especially—love of one's "enemies." , So here was the "new'.' Duke, (»ily two years re-. moved from the "old." Duke who sold Nazi pamphlets from his Louisiana legislative office, playing to racial fears and cultivating racial hate-peddling views for political gains. Here was Duke placing the greater burden of the blame of Louisiana's economic woes on "welfare cheats," a thinly veiled racial reference. Politicians who prey on racial fears are not new in U.S. politics. Puke's efforts, in fact, appeared as cruder versions of President Bush's 1988 race-laced campaign decision to allow the use of the Willi^ Horton TV ad, or Senator Jesse Helms' 1991 campaign decision to run a TV commercial with the following voice-over: "You needed that job, and you were the best qualified. But they had to give it to a minority because of a racial quota." . That's periucious stuff. If Duke has tarnished the Republican Party, so be it. One reaps what one sows. In his efforts to convince Louisiana voters he was

no longer a bigot, Duke spoke about Christian redemption and his ability to grow. If he knew about Christian redemption, then he must surely also know about Christian repentance. It is part of our tradition and calls for restitution. But I have seen no report of Duke volunteering his services at the local chapter of the Anti-Defamation League. As late as 1985, Duke said he doubted the Holocaust had ever occurred. Some of my Jewish friends have had to put up with this kind of nonsense before. It has helped drive some to pledge their lives to reminding humanity the Holocaust did occur. And among the people working the ov'ens were p^ple who called themselves Christians. The responsibility to remember and teach the Holocaust should not belong to Jews alone. No, this is every decent person's task. It is especially the task of those Christians who are appalled to see people like .Duke wearing self-serving Christian protective garments. . „ VVhether Duke now disappears.or gains some wider platform, it sadly appears that we will have his hkes among us for some time to come—like cancers in the human body. We must never end our vigilant Watch to expose th^se exploiters for what they are. Those of us who r6member the Holocaust, thost: of us who struggle tb confront the dark and brighten the light sides of the human spirit, and those of us who understand what is—and could be—atstake, can' never let up! We must stand up to and denounce all those who indulge in scapegoat politics, whatever momentary labels or political affdiations. No to this Duke. No to everv Duke.

I come in many shapes, sizes, .and colors. I can be found in offices and synagogues, among others places, but most often in Jewish homes. I am often blue and white, and usually reside in the kitchen. People put coiiis into me and say that I am special. That makes me feel good; and I am happiest when I am filled up with these coins. In case you haven't guessed yet who 1 am, my final clue is that I am a symbol of justice and rightûsness. Yes, I am a Tzedakah box. Tzedakah, which comes from the Hebrew word "tsedek," meaning justice or righteousness, may be one of the most significant words in Jewish Ufa. Tzedakah goes' beyond charity. It involves love, caring for others, promoting cohesiveness in the Jewish community, and is one of the highest mitzvot. Though giving is the responsibility of each individual, Jewish Family Services assumes the responsibility to assist our Jewish conununity to meet the needs of low-income Jewish families in the Omaha metropolitan area. Financial assistance is one of many services that JFS offers to our community. Throughout the year, Jewish Family Service has assisted over 50 families with money for heat, food, medical expenses, and clothing. These families are often single-parent famihes, individuals in crisis due to loss of job, death of a spouse or other emotional or financial crisis. As assistance is available year-long, the agency administers a specific Tzedakah program four times a year. , ,' i . This year, on Nov. 22, Jewish Family Service will provide food to 31 local Jewish families. Through this program. Women's American ORT and B'nai B'rith Men will give Hanukkah gifts to these same families. In addition, Project Dreidel, co-sponsoted by ORT, is a new facet of ourânukkah program whereby anyone in our community can purchase a gift for a selecte(| or "adopted" child. The food and gift distribution will help allow these ' families to celebrate as traditional a Hûkkah as pos.aible. This is the intention for the other food distributions as well—Pesach. summer, and Rosh Hashanah. As the agency learns about more people in need of our help, the number served in the program will increase. It has doubled during the last five years. • Though there is a limited budget for the financitQ as, sisfance program, the Tzedakah projects are funded al• naost exclusively with private donations to Jewish Fam. ily Service. We are grateful for the generosity of many , people, some who chose to remain anonymous, who also .give these families self-respect, the ability to.survive more comfortably, and the ability to feel included in our. Jewish coDununity. '"Tzedakah" is a program of Jewish Family Service: it is defined as the"just" or "right'! thing to do; it is our duty, it is part of the Jewish way of life, and it helps people survive... but most of all-like a full Tzedakah box, it feels good. •

Well, here 1 am-after a couple.of months' absence.,.^nd it seems 1 could not have picked a busier time to revivi "Between Teens." How ya'U (that's my southern accent reappearing) continue at fhis frantic pace, I'll never know. It would be wise to take a long hap after you finish' your turkey and dressing next Thursday, because the month of December is more than busy. It's hectic. You'U begin the-month by lighting the Hanukkah can dies for eight days of Hanukkah. This is a time to slow down a mite and enjoy your family. • Holly Friedman confided in me what she likes best about Hanukkah: "1 like the mood 1 get in when 1 light the candles. And singing the songs." Don't forget that this is a special time of year, one to sit back and reflect on the courage of yoiu- ancestors. But also a time to have fun, tool Some of you have been looking forward to December for another reason. You've been studying for the Edward Zorinsky B'nai B'rith Bible Quiz to be held at the "J " on Dec. 15. So many contestants have registered this year that they will have to be divided into teams for the competition. If you chose for some reason not to compete this year, stop by at 2 p.m. to cheer on your friends or to just hsten as the questions are asked. The Combelt Council of BBYO is also busy during December. The guys plin a conclave in St. Louis later in the month. But that's only after a Hanukkah party, attending a Racers game, holding services at the Blumkin Home, playing a football game with the alumni, and having a scavenger hunt, just to name a few of the activities. • • Greg Greenberg, Council president since May. doesn't think it's a busy month. (We'll check again with him on the first of January!) He does say, however, "It's hard to find creative programs that are oew^and exciting.", Jason Itkih, Who plans to attenda lot of these activities, says he's looking forward to the football game with the alumni. Tema Moss, president of the girls' Combelt Council s^ys they'll be in St. Louis for a Regional Convention in late December. The theme will be "Closer 10 the Edge." Tema is expecting 45'girls from Omaha to attend. "I'm looking forward to seeing m.v friends from out of town," Tema told .me. The synagogue youth groups also have a full schedule. Kadimah. the youth group at Beth Israel, has a ' scavenger hunt, a program to work with the developmentally disabled and a conference in St. Louis on the bcx>ks for December, according to Rabbi Mark Urkowitz And this is only a partial listing. Rabbi Urkowitz says "Every month is a busy month." The Omaha Temple Youth Group takes »loak at fern inism at a program to be held Dec. 15. They are.also planninig to be in St. Louis in late December for a con clave. (Don't tell anyone, but I think St. Louis might have quite a few Omaha teenagers on its streets before the ctdendar flips to 1992.) United Synagogue Youth plans a sophomore rush on Dec. 14, with an all-night program. An intefnational con v«ntion will be in Boston Dec. 18 26 .Andrew Altman. who is ruimibg uiioppoised for regional president, plans to attend He', Thi-u

death in 166, his son, Judah Maccabee, led a rev- / olutionary coalition against Antiochus' armies. Judah's army consistently defeated larger Syrian forces until finally, in 16.5 BCP], Judah's army of 10,000 drove a Syrian army of 60,000 back to Syria. Having defeated Antiochus, Judah and his troops marched to the Temple Mount, only to find the Temple completely desecrated. As the Jews restored the Temple, one small flask of oil was found with barely enough oil to light the menorah for a single day. Miraculously, this small amount of oil lasted for eight days. Thestory of the Maccabean revolution is an, account of the use of physical power for moral purposes. Throughout history, Jews have been ambivalent about the use of physical force, even when used in a just cause. The Maccabees reflect an authentic part of the Jewish character and Jewish history. We must not deny that part of our heritage, any more than we should • regard it as the only part of our heritage. Jews are good at commemorating—or observing—the many military losses we have endured, from the destruction of the Temples on Tisha B'Av to the destruction of European Jewry on Yom Hashoah. We celebrate freedom on Passover, political victory on Purim, and our covenental relationship with God on Simchat Torah. But we feel uncomfortable celebrating military victories. Perhaps that is why we emphasize the religious miracle of Chanukah—the oil burning for eight days. Our tradition teaches us that King David was denied the privilege of building the Temple because he was a military hero. That privilege was bestowed upon his son, who was a wise man untainted by enemy blood. It is a wonderful tradition, showing a preference for peace over war and for wisdom over strength. But it is a tradition that has not Always served the Jewish people well. We are not the Swiss, and Israel is not Switzer-, land Wo have enemies and I' ' leave us alone. \. jwer—physical, economic, political, educa-

tional-disproportionate to our numbers in order to survive. We may be the people of the book, but one of our books must be the story of the Maccabees. Because if we do not assure our physical safety-whether in Israel, in Crown Heights or in the Soviet Union—they will burn our books as they did in Germany and throughout Europe. This is not a recruiting call for the Jewish Defense League or other organizations that employ violence promiscuously against innocent targets. 1 abhor such immoral terrorism. It is a call for renewed concern for Jewish physical safety. In America, this concern should take the form of an insistence that the piolice increase their protection of vulnerable Jewish communities. We do not, in this country, need to take the law into our own hands. But we must demand that those in whose hands the law has been placed apply it equally and protectively. In Israel, this concern for Jewish physical safety should take the form of preemptive protection of the Israel population, such as the highly moral bombing of the Iraqi nuclear reactor back in 1981, and the recent surveillance overflights of western Iraq. in search of Scud missiles. American Jews—like all decent Americans—should support such reasonable measures of self-protection, even when our government foolishly and hypocritically condemns them.

Hanukkah hot Christmas By Alan Dershowitz CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (JTA)-I love when Chanukah comes out early, as it does this year. It enables Jews to celebrate—Lenny Bruce was wrong when he said Jews never "celebrate," they "observe"— Chanukah independently of Christmas. When the two holidays coincide, many Jews view Chanukah as the "Jewish Christmas." We explain to our children that we, too, have a winter holiday during which we give gifts and have parties. Jews compete with Christians over whose symbol will be displayed in public areas: if "they" put up their creche or tree, "we" certainly want our menorah up there next to it, lest we be relegated to' second-class status. The result is often the kind of display described * by Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun in a recent Supreme Court decision as a small menorah standing "in the shadow" of a much larger Christmas tree. It's time to take Chanu-' kah out of the shadow of Christmas and appreciate our holiday on its own ' merits. We should not buy our children and friends "Christmas gifts" for Chanukah. We should give presents that reflect the Jewish nature of Chanukah. Chanukah "gelt"— money—is, of course, appropriate, but at least a portion of all Chanukah gelt should be allocated to charity. We should tell the story of Chanukah—a story that is not widely known. It is not known because the Book of Maccabees is not part of the Jewish Bible and we do not read it the way we read the Book of Esther on Purim. In an effort to Hellenize the Jewish population of Judea, Antiochus IV of Syria, in 168 BCE, outlawed all forms of Jewish observance and began what was to be a three-year campaign of religious persecution. When Antiochus' sokliers arrived in the city of Modi'in, a Jew named Matityahu refused a command that he bow down before idols, choosing instead to. revolt againat the king's . emiBsaries and flee to the Judeain hills with his sons and a group of Jewish followers. Following Matityahu's

Parashat Vayishlah Reggie. Bacon, and Hillel In our S,idrah Jacob returns to Canaan after 20 years in Mesopotamia, where he had lived with his uncle, his father-in-law, Laban. Now be faces a great unknown: how will his brother Esau, before whom he fled two decades ago, receive him? Jacob is full of fears and doubts. He doesn't wish to flee and hide, for fear of offending a possibly friendly Esau. Yet he dare not come unprepared for fighting;'leBt Esau come at him with murderous intent. A 19th century Italian conunentator (Isaac Samuel Reggio, a many-faceted, widely educated writer and educator) offered a highly interesting comment and interpretation to Jacob's prayer, as he returned to face his brother Esau. Jacob addresses the Lord in a familiar verse: "I am not worthy (qato'n'ti) of all the mercies and all the truth Thou hast shown unto Thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two campsr" What Jacob is saying is that he left Canaan with nothing but his staff. But with the Lord's blessing he has now become a wealthy man. head of a large family and a substantial retinue of hired helpers to tend his flocks and herds. Reggio interprets "qato'n'ti" differently. Literally it means "I am too little." thus, "I am not worthy." But without doing violence to the Hebrew, it can also mean, "1 have become little. " Thus Reggio says that Jacob, a poor man, staff in hand, alone and lonely, left Canaan into the unknown, but with faith in God. He was sure that the Lord would help him in the ordeals that lay before him. Returning, now a wealthy man, Reggio sees Jacob made little. Little and fearful, becau9e of his wealth and stature as head of a family! o . Before, he was determined and full of confidence. Now he is uncertain and fearful He has been made little by his aggrandizement! "Qato'n'ti!" By my grandeur I am diminished! Add to Reggio's sharp understanding, the inci:?ive remark of Francis Bacon: "Children are hostages to fat." Add further, from Pirke Abot, a famous teaching of Hillel: "The more flesh, the more worms; the more possessions, the more worries ... the more Torah. the more life; the more study, the more wisdom.' One other consideration: Do ndt we all know people who have been ''spoiled," made little, by their acquisition of wealth? It is good to become big, provided it does not make one little. ,

Most parents of young children will tell you that sharing a bedroom with a child is like sleeping in a boiler factory. Kids snore, they thrash around, they talk in their sleep and often will sit straight up in bed (in the middle of the night) like a miniature zombie. On the other hand, grandparents might well have a different response to the idea of inviting a small roomer into the boudoir. At our house, for her last couple of visits, our (now) five-year-old grandchild has occupied "a special bed." And we all get along,famously, probably because it's both temporary and a novel arrangement. Be that as it may, I'm here to tell you it was delightful to have her closeby during a recent weekend visit. She came to see her Bobie and she wasn't here nearly long enough, but she made her presence felt. And her presence so nearby, during those hours when the entire household was quiet, was delicious. For me to glance over a dozen times at night and see her tiny form among her assortment of stuffed animals brought more pleasure than this grandma can describe. Maybe the very best part of it all was early morning. Imagine waking up and seeing a precious munchkin sitting on the edge of her bed, staring at you—imagine also saying good morning and hearing a soft and dear "morning, Grandma." Better than cheesecake! Each morning I invited her into my bed. an invitation that was quickly and enthusiastically accepted. We cuddled and talked and speculated about whether her mom was awake in the next room. We had several important "scussions" about a few things she had on her mind. We talked about what to have for breakfast and what was on the day's agenda. ' As you can see, the wake-up times were a real treat. Bedtime was a little different, though not a problem. She and her mom had their routine and usually it went smoothly. A couple of stories read aloud and then it was all over. Her last night was a little different. We had company during the evening and she had "entertained" until she was, shall we say, over stimulated. When it was time to go to bed, her mom began the story routine but was intermpted by a long-distance call. I took over—or should I say, I attempted to take over. What a mahzick. I told her to settle down, get comfortable and let me read. She gave me a beautific smile dnd then proceeded to wiggle, twist, rearrange her animals and generally do everything but settle down. At one point she stopped me with a "Just a minute, 1 have to tell you something." After she manufactured a news item, I admonished her again to quiet down. ' Suddenly, she was out of bed and arranging herself in a nearby recliner chair. When I asked what she thought she was doing she said, "You told me to get comfortable. This ia very comfortable." Like Isai'. a real mahzick. Ultimately, her mother rescued me and she was asleep in short order. I sat down and tried to figure out exactly how she had handled me! As usual, when she had gone, the place was empty .without her. A toy dish would turn up from under some-' thing or the crunch of an elusive rice crispie underfoot was a reminder of her. We put away the toys "til 1 come back next time" but the fingerprints showed up for days. One reminder is still very.much in my memory ,.. Waking up in the morning, in that split second before my brain is turned on and running, 1 look over to where Julia slept. I remember, just in time, that she's at home in New York. But just for a second, 1 expect to hear "morning. Grandma." 1 can't imagine waking to a sweater sound.

Journey without end By Hannie Wolf "When I left Germsny 51 years ago, I assumed the door had closed forever on the country that had been home to me for the first 14 years of my life. In 1970, my mother and I stopped for a weekend in Ulm, barely recognizing our hometown. It was virtually leveled during World War II and was in tl]e re-building stages. In 1983, 1988 and again in 1991, th6 mayor of Ulm called on its former Jewish citizens to return for visits. Hesitant at first, thesincerity of the offers was a cause for our grateful acceptance. Over the years there have been many changes; none more so than in 1991. From a sleepy town of 60,000 the city has grown into a metropolis of 126,000. Everywhere are signs of prosperity. A low unemployment rate draws people from various countries, forcing a housing shortage. A multitude of language is heard on streetslhat echo with the '

laughter of children. This old city bardy remembers World War II. Its primary concern is the preservation of planet earth. Gone are the dictators of yesterday. Seeds of freedom and democracy sprout everywhere. In the hotel rooms guests found packets of information, free passes on all modes of local transportation, lists of activities one could participate in, a video cassette of the get-together in 1988, a list of names and addresses of the 148 visitors, a book published by the Ulm City Archives, detailing the life and death of a onceflourishing Jewish community that had its beginning in the 13th century, with added personal histories of former Jewish residents. A vase of roses, grown in the garden of a city council membeTj greeted us warmly. An added bonus was an envelope of spending money given to each guest. My mind is cttoimed with the memory of a never-tobe forgotten week. I still see the elderly who came for \yhat nught be a final look at timi former hometown. Sadly one of them died on this trip at age 89 of a massive stroke. Having emigrated to the United States in 1923, he often returned JFor visits. There were the young—the s(|cond generation, bom in foreign lands. They ca^ne to see where their ancestors had lived, and perhaps to have a better understanding of the hatdships that had faced their parents. For me it was a journey without end. I miet, for the first time, the brother of my friend Edith. He is the sole survivor of his family that perished during the Holocaust. I met my childhood fiiend Esther, whom I had last seen in Berlin in 1940. Ruth, with her daughter, came from England. We had not met since the 19309, On and on goes the list. Our Christian friends, having risked their own safisty by their loyalty to Jewish friends during the Nazi regime, \ivelcomed us into their hoipes and hearts with open arms ' , • In a lighter vein we choM an excursion to Lake Con stance and the nearby Austrian Alpii, where we vacationed often. , " ' Friday eveni/ig services were held in the Augfiburg Synagogue,, repiil^y the mOst beautiful one in Gur-

many. Gutted on November 9,1938, it has been painstakin^y restored to its former splendor. Today it has a membership of 20, mostly elderly, the young having moved away. On Sunday morning we attended an ecumenical worship service at the Gothic Minster, followed by an organ recital. • The Jewish visitors were guests at the annual "swearing-in" ceremony, held on the Weinhof in the old city quarters. Here the Mayor repeats his oath of office and gives an accounting of the past year's proceedings. At a later address. Minister President Erwin Teufel reiterated, "We thank the Jewish guests for overcoming the hurdle by returning to their old hometown. We are ashamed of our history that cannot be denied. Today we have very close ties to the Jewish people and the State of Israel." This year a memorial was dedicated to the Jewish citizens of Ulm, who lost their lives during the Holocaust. 7"he inscription on the stone tablet reads, "The Secret of Redemption is Remembrance." The Star qf David is surrounded with names sadly familiar to me. Most of my childhood friends, and my grandmother, Emmy Frankfurter. ' My mind rests easier now, in the knowledge that these martyrs will not be forgotten. I may return some day, to recite the Kaddish and offer a prayer in the hope that there will never be another Holocaust.

By Gel Kezwer TORONTO {JTA)-A Croatian priest wanted by Yugoslavia for war crimes committed against Serbs during World War II has been living in Niagara Falls, Ontario, since 1956, two internationally known Nazi hunters charge. According to documents piled by former United States Justice Departmeht lawyer John' Loftus and Australian TV journalist Mark Aarons, Yugoslavia wrote to Britain in July 1947 requesting the extradition of the Rev. Karlo Dragutin Petranovic, who is now 80. The two investigators devote six pages to Petranovic in their recently released book, "Ratlines: How the Vatican's Nazi Networks Betrayed Westem Intelligence to the So^ viets," published by William Heinemann Ltd. of Lgndon and distributed in Canada by Butterworths. In 19,47, Monsignor Petranovic was living in Genoa, Italy-then part of Britain's postwar occupation zone. He was active in a church-run escape network that ferried hundreds of Nazi fugitives out of Europe to re&ige in North and South America and Australia.
