Mrs. Fcllman, who returned last month with her husband from their first trip to Israel noted, "On the Hadasenh Leader's Conference Tour wo heard Golda Meir and Abba Eban and were fortunate to meet and speak with David Ben Gurion and President Shazar.

'Challenge' A vitally interested woman, deeply involved with the affairs of her family, her community and her people, Mrs. Fellman views her chairmanship ol the

Women's Division of the campaign as "another opportunity for me to thank God for my blessings as an American Jewish woman. I look at this chairmanship" said Mrs. Fcllman,' "as though it was a two-pronged serving fork. One prong is responsible for the education ot our local Jewish children in our religious schools, for an improved Esther K. Newman camp and Center activities, /or the support and maintenance of a first class home for the aged, to mention but a few of the local recipients of campaign funds. The other prong has the sania responsibilities, but the location is Israel rather (dan Omaha, and the needs perhaps aresomewhat different." "As Jewish mothers living in an affluent society, I believe wa are both compelled and privileged to share that which God has given us with those who have less, wherever they may be ' throughout the world," Mrs. Fcllman concluded.

Washington, (JTA)—The United States announced last week it was airlifting some $5,000,000 of weapons to Jordan to bolster King Hussein's regime. The arms will include trucks nnd armored personnel carriers, to increase the mobility of Jordan's armed forces. The United States also will, at Hussein's request, expedite delivery of 3G supersonic F-104 jet f i g h t e r planes which it agreed to sell Jordan last spring. The State Department said that "this additional equipment is being provided as a means of enabling Jordan to assure its security and thus to contribute

further to the stability of tho area." The announcement cama a few hours after the Jordanian Cabinet resigned. King Hussein asked Premier Asfi el-Tall to form a new Cabinet and tha Premier did so within a few hours. Since a November 13 Israeli reprisal raid on Jordan, King Hossein has been under severe attack from the "revolutionary" regimes of Syria and Iraq, and from Ahmed Shukairy, head of the Palestine Liberation Organization. There has also been violence within Jordan involving the Palestinian Arabs living on the Jordan West Bank. King Hussein has charged that tha rioting among Palestinian Jordanians was fomented by Soviet agents in-cooperation with tha leftist Syrian and Iraqi regimes. The State Department made it clear that the speedup of arms deliveries was designed to bolster Hussein's regime in the face of the v i o l e n t Arab pressures.

By TRUDK B. FELDMAN White House Correspondent In 1730. the nation's first President, George . Washington, wrote a historic letter to the Hebrew Congregation of Newport in Rhode Island, in which he stated, in part: . "May the children of the stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other inhabitants, while everyone shall sit in safety under his own;vine and fig' tree and there shall be none to make him afraid." One hundred seventy-six years later—last week—the Vice President of the United States, Hubert H. Humphrey came in person to sit under the flourishing vine and fig tree of Congregation Adas Israel in Washington, D. C. He came at the invitation of Rabbi Stanley Rabinowitz, spiritual leader of the Congregation, to participate in the celebration of the 18th anniversary of the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. On arriving, Vice President Humphrey was greeted by Congregation member Sheldon Cohen, Commissioner of Internal Revenue, who thoughtfully offered him a 'Yarmulke' (skull cap). "No, thanks, Sheldon, I have my own," said the Vice President with a grin as he pulled a black, silk 'Yarmulke' from his pocket. • The V i c e President was escorted to the 'Bimah' by the Congregation's Executive Director, Stanley Wiener and was seated beside the president, Samuel Lebowitz. First came the 'Birkat Ha-Chodesh' (Blessing of the New Month): then, the procession of the : Torahs around the pulpit and back to the Holy Ark; then, the 'Musaf (concluding Sabbath prayers), all of which Mr. Humphrey viewed with reverent enthusiasm, When Rabbi Rabinowitz presented Mr. Humphrey to the Congregation, the Vice President strode to the lectern and opened his 'Dra-sha' (sermon) with a warm, hearty 'Shabbot Sholom' (a peaceful Sabbath). He began: "Eighteen years ago today the United Nations General Assembly adopted the

Universal Declaration of Human Rights—based squarely upon the premise that recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world." And then, he quoted the essence of his theme from the Book of Genesis: 'And G-d created man, in the image of Gd created He him.'" "The inherent worth of every human being was repeatedly proclaimed by the Prophets," the Vice President said. "It'was reaffirmed by Pope XXIII in his great encyclical, I'acein In Terris: 'All men are equal in .their natural dignity.'" The audience was rapt as he continued: "We have found that the assurances to individuals— and to racial or religious minorities—of full human rights does not detract from the well-being of the majority. Rather, it enhances it—for only then are they free to make their full contribution to the community. I know of no more decisive proof of this than the range and the quality of the Jewish contribution to American civilization." Mr. Humphrey concluded by telling the wor. shippers: 'The way a man treats people is an index of the way he treats Gd." From a close vantage point, I could scarcely believe it was happening. After his 'Dra-sha.' there he was—the Vice President of the United States—'Sidtlur' (prayer book) in hand, singing —in the Hebrew—'Adohn OLom' together with the Congregation. At the Kiddush reception which followed, the Vice President brought the goblet to his lips with the traditional v/ords, 'Le-Chayim.' I could not resist. I had to ask him how he felt about being in a Synagogue on the Sabbath. His eyes twinkled as he replied: 'Oh, Trude, this isn't the first Shabbos I've been in a Shule I've 'davened' in other Shu!es before." And the next moment, Mr. Humphrey was nibbling the honey cake proffered him graciously by Sisterhood president Mrs. Sidney Margolis.

Tei Aviv Area if hy Floods Tel Aviv fJTA)—Two days of rainstorms caused flooding in several areas of Israel last week and cut Tel Aviv off from the rest of Israel for several hours after bridges of the nearby Ayoion River were submerged. The floods forced evocation of some 00 families from lower areas of Tel Aviv and from two settlements near Ashkelon, Shetulim and Beth Shiknin. Nearby slum areas were hit by the flood waters and firemen and police evacuated residents to schools and community centers. The iioodwaters subsided and the roads were reopened. Floods were caused in the Negev by waters from the Hebron Hills. A river which is usually dry in the summer became n raging torrent which severed roads nnd some Negev settlements. Heavy rain also fell in the Dead Sea area, causing some damage to the Sodom road. Farmers and irrigation workers welcomed the rains.

Survivors of lazism Protest in Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv OTA)—Former inmates of Nazi death canvjg marched with members of Israeli youth movements and with European ghetto survivors who fought the Nazis, parading in silence last weekend to protest the resurgence of neo-Nazism in West Germany. Thousands of onlookers observed, also in silence, the inarch on Tel Aviv's principal thoroughfare, Dizengofi Street. The marchers carried placards which read: '-We cannot Permit the Resurgence of Neo-Nazism," "We Know Only Too Well What Nazism Means" and "They May Be Small in Numbers Now But Hitler Also Started With A Small Number of Followers." The demonstration began with n rally in Dizengoff Square at which various leaders of the anti-Nazi groups spoke. Police granted permission for the Saturday night demonstration after turning down'a first request because* they considered the proposed march route inappropriate. Members of Israel's Parliament and party leaders headed the solemn procession.

W a s h i n g t o n . D. C—"We should do more talking about making Jewish teenage interests relevant to the ethical principles of Judaism and not only show concern for making Judaism relevant to the interests of teenagers." Dr. Max F. Baer made this statement during the recent annual meeting here of the E'nai B'rith Youth Commission, major policy-making body of tho B'nai B'rith Youth^Orgnnization. Dr. Baer is national director of the organization, which is tho world's largest Jewish youth group. •Though agreeing that Judaism must appear relevant to young people, he stated that the basic question is: "To what must Judaism be made relevant?" "We often are told that Judaism must be related to the dynamic changes in our general society. We associate ourselves with this belief. However, many of our Jewish leaders and groups in the practical application of the principle give it so much emphasis that what they are really advocating is a nonsectarian or humanistically oriented Jewish community." Dr. Baer asserted that there Is no evidence to support the thesis that when Jewish youth

Vatican Must Approve Law on Rights of Spain's Non-Catholics Madrid (JTA)—The legislation providing for freedom of religion in Spain for Jews and Protestants, endorsed by the Spanish College of Bishops and approved by a national referendum this month, will not be sent for passage to the Cortes, the Spanish Parliament until it is endorsed by the Vatican, it was learned here this week. The legislation, which has been in preparation for HI years, had been scheduled to be placed be-

f 111 New York (JTA>—The dnatli of Rabbi Nathan Nute Alevsky, oldest rabbi in Russia, was announced here by Rabbi Israel Miller, chairman of the American Jewish Conference on Soviet Jewry. "We have just received information on the passing of Rabbi Alevsky, who was over !)l) years of age, but active until shortly before his death. Rabbi Alevsky served in Moscow for over thirty years as leader of M a r y n a-Roschtsa Synagogue, second largest congregation in Moscow. He was formerly rabbi of the Urkutsk Congregation in Siberia." Pointing out that there are now only 05 synagogues in all of Russia, and less than 50 rabbis. Rabbi Miller said: "Rabbi Alevsky's death dramatically highlights the tragic disintegration of the institutions and instrumentalities necessary for the survival of the religious and cultural life of Russian Jewry, The loss of another link with Russian Jewry's historic past, and the additional void it leaves in Jewish spiritual leadership in the Soviet Union, points up the need for the early reopening of Jewish theological seminaries and Yeshivot in the Soviet Union."

Scoff Paper Sssks Jews for Top Posls Philadelphia fJTA)—The Scott Paper Company, one of the largest paper products manufacturing concerns in the country, has joined with the Jewish Employment and Vocational Service of Philadelphia and the local chapter of the American Jewish Committee in launching a program to recruit Jews and members of other minority groups for executive-level positions in the company. • Representatives of the company met with officials of the JEVS and the Committee chapter last weekend to work out plans for the project which will seek to inform tho Jewish community and other ethnic groups of the opportunities for executive employment available at the company.

fore the Cortes on January 20. Generalissimo F r a n c o received this week the international president of the B'nai B'rith, Dr. William Wexler, and told him that he considered the legislation as a "simple act of justice." Dr. Wexler was accompanied by Saul E, Joftes, director-general of the B'nai B'rith ollice of international affairs. The new legislation will allow Jews and other non-Catholics to worship openly in clearlymarked bouses of worship, to form religious associations, to celebrate civil marriages and to be buried in their own cemeteries. Members of the non-Calholic faiths also will be free from obligatory attendance at Catholic services or teachings in Spanish schools, armed forces and prisons.

New York (JTA)—The Post Office Department has promised to review all international mail rates and zones and will seriously consider the possibility of putting all Middle East countries in one airmail postage zone. This promise was contained in an answer sent by Postmaster General Larence F, O'Brien to thousands of queries directed to him in petitions circulated by the Far Rockaway Jewish Community Council seeking to correct an inequity between air rates to Israel and to its neighbor, Egypt. Rubin R. Dobin, chairman of the Far Rockaway Council, explained that a half-ounce airmail lett.er to Egypt costs 15 cents while the same letter to Israel requires postage of 25 cents. Mr. Dobin pointed out that Israel was placed in the higher airmail rate zone by the arbitrary drawing of a line on a map which separated it from the other countries in' the cheaper rate zone. The Council launched a nationwide campaign to secure 100,000 signatures to a petition asking that Israel be placed in the 15 cent zone. MKS.

has this procedure been more deadly than in matters econcinic. The present electoral system docs not lead to instability, especially compared to so many other states where! revolutions or coalition collapses create constant upheavals. Hut as ono critic has aptly pointed out, it lesids to something almost (is bad. It makes the Government so stable ;t,s to be almost immobile. Only one party has dedicated itself, fully and unreservedly to electoral reform. That is tbra Rafi party, headed by Ben-Gurion. Dnyan, Peres, Almogi and a host of capable young men and women. Itself a tiny minority in the Knesseth, Rafi can not hope to swing the , votes necessary there, but a ground swell demand for a national referendum, in which the people will be able to speak their views on a specific matter of national policy, may cut across all political lines and at last bring about the necessary change. It will lake a year, niayha two, before this can be achieved, but it is worth wailing for and working for.

In the area of technology, society has made enormous progress, but in human relations, thero has not been so much change.

To that area applies the story of the Jew who prayed to God: "O Lord, it is written, in Thy sight, a thousand years are aa a minute.

nuclear-armed, resurgent Germany. The Soviet Union has not changed its basic hostility to the survival of the Jewish religion and culture. But a sensitivity to public opinion has emerged. The present Soviet leaders are not fanatical Nazis but cunning politicians. They see advantages in improving the Soviet image by according Jews more equitable treatment. Israel and the Aral) World It is difficult to see how this would be applied to • the Near East and Israel. In that area, Russia influences one group of Arab states while another Arab faction adheres to the West. Both Arab factions subscribe to only one joint commitment—the destruction of Israel. America and Russia compete . for Arab favor, .sometimes at Israel's expense. Neither great power would risk its influence and interest in the Arab world in seeking justice for Israel. The Soviet Union considers Israel an imperialist outpost in a region ripe for "Arab Socialism." Moscow would like to deprive the West of Arab oil and gain a strategic link to North Africa. Sue/, could be sealed. The United States Government would likn to preserve Israel, a friendly democracy s t r o n g l y backed by the American Congress and public. However, State Department officials may choose to side with the "pro-Western Arabs" if Jordan and Saudi Arabia become embroiled with Israel. Washington policy-makers are not yet convinced that American and Israeli interests are identical. Moral considerations are apparently out of date. Communist China would like to foment an Arab • "liberation war" against Israel in 10G7. This .would divert Atnc.ricnn. alt en* . tion from Viet Nam and the Far East. Meanwhile, Moscow would " be forced into a confrontation with the United States in the Near East. Peking would have much to gain by provoking trouble between the Arabs and Israel, The debate over American policies i/i Viet Nam will obviously continue. Jewish opin-i ions reflect the broad spectrum of the general American response to that complex and vexing involvement. Stands have been taken by rabbis and organizations. As escalation continues, more will be heard. Men of good will, Jews and non-Jews, will pursue the promise of peace in 1007. They will serve the cause of justice. It will bo a year of challenge and change.

The memory of people, places and actions. The lines etched into our soul by struggle and sinfulness and sulfering. The cumulative courage garnered by issues and victories. The defeats we tried to transcend and transmute into renewed resolution. The compassion and tolerance and forgiveness that arise from the magic power of empathy. The inescapable moral need to combat wrong and injustice, as a kind of thanksgiving for the right to live at all. That release of the deep outreaching of lover for all mankind which is but un extension of the love for man or woman and the beginning of love for God. A sensitivity to things one cannot see. The burning bush of faith in the greatness of the human mind and the essential goodness of the spirit. They are the essence of a civilized personality.

ouoe By Mickey Gerelick 1} In the interest of preserving my .sanity and deterring attacks of high blood pressure and ulcers, I avoid, as much as possible, the editorial page of the local daily. Occasionally, at the goading of stronger friends who read the page regularly, I will expose myself to a specific editorial. Usually I'm sorry that I did. Never was I sorrier than when I read the unbelievable lead editorial on December 26, One would expect that an editorial writer would at least have the facts straight. I had thought that we were making some headway in erasing the erroneous connotation between Christmas and Hanuka. Even if the writer didn't know that the origin of Hanuka preceded the first Christmas by Ki.r> years, he should have known that Hanuka this year ended two weeks before Christinas, but apparently this information had not reached him. If you missed reading this masterpiece in the daily, and if your stomach is strong enough, read on as I quote from the editorial. If

."One of the happiest local items this holiday season was the news that a number of Jewish families have decorated their yards and shrubbery with lights and with signs that say "Season's. Greetings." "For Jews, this is the Festival of Lights, or Hanukkah, a holy time." "For the vast majority of people in the Western World, and part of the Eastern World as well, it is Christinas, the celebration of the b i r t h of the Christ child." * * * I really don't have a strong enough stomach to repeat the rest of the editorial which tries to equate the lighted greetings in the yards of "Jewish families" with "a break d o w n of prejudices" and "a bridge to understanding." Well friends, if this is a bridge to understanding, I must admit I'm on the wrong bridge. I don't understand Orst of all how any so-called "Jewish fam-

ily" can rationalize any participation in Christmas which, in its religious significance is anything but a universal holiday as far as Jews are concerned, Christmas celebrates the departure of Christianity from J u d a i s m more emphatically than any other Christian holiday, and as no Jewish holiday does. Certainly there are better ways for Jew's to express "good will" to their non-Jewish friends and neighbors than by making a mockery of their holiest time of the year with observances which must, to the Jew, be void of any religious belief. Further, I don't understand how any thinking Christian can accept this empty gesture of "lights in the yards of Jews" as a symbol of brotherhood. It seems to me that the recent attempts at dialogs—of rabbis and Christian clergymen exchanging pulpits etc. was not for the purpose of making different religious beliefs the same, but rather to recognize, understand anil r e s p e c t flic differences. The Jewish family displaying "Season's Greetings" and the editorial writer who views it as a positive step toward brotherhood, are equally guilty of false brotherhood. Many communities are attempting to take Christmas observances out of the public schools. ..Perhaps the first step should be to take Christmas out of Jewish homes! In spite of the secularization and commercialization Christmas has undergone in modern American Society, Christmas is rooted in sacred Christian beliefs. Jews who cannot accept the religious beliefs of the holiday should respect those who do and refrain from abetting the secularization of the holiest day in the Christian religious calendar. I would hope that, most Jews do. I hope further that most Christians prefer it that way. I have two wishes for next December. May the "Season's Greetings" lights in the yard of the Jewish family be extinguished by a mature understanding of "respect for difference" If not—I can only hope the editorial writer's typewriter breaks down so that the combined ignorance of the two need not be shared with the entire community. If neither wish is granted, please don't tell me about it. My., b l o o d pressure really couldn't take it again.
