Israel Sets Boles for Transplant Surgery Jerusalem (JTA)—Israel's Ashkenazic Chief Itabbi Isser Untprmann laid down this week the conditions under which heart transplants nnd similar surgery can ne performed in accordance with Halachah, Jewish law. Streaking at the 11th Congress on law here, he said transplants could be performed only to save a living recipient who is at hand and that organs cannot be kept in storage until a recipient turns up. On the determination of time of death, a subject that has been widely discussed in medical circles all over the world, the Chief Rabbi said it was the llalachic position that ":one is dead when one has stopped breathing." The transplant of organs has been approved by the Orthodox rabbinate on the principle of "pikuakli nefesh" which permits even the desecration of the. Sabbath in case of danger of life. So far, however, there have been no transplant operations in Israel involving vital organs although there have been cornoal transplants.

The other clash, between Israeli and Jordanian artillery, was centered in the Beisan and Jordan valleys where at least four Israeli settlements came under i n t e n s e bombardment. There are no UN observers on the latter front but the shooting subsided before noon after Israeli gunners were reported to have inflicted heavy damage on Jordanian positions. A military spokesman said that in both instances, the shooting was started by the other side.

Sharp Hiss Noted in Jews Leaving Poland WASHINGTON I JTA) - A sharp increase in the number of Jews leaving P o l a n d has followed the S o v i e t invasion of Czechoslovakia, according to information Irom reliable sources received here. Since mid-August, about 100 Jews have been leaving Poland each week for Israel or western nations. Since June, 1907, when Poland severed relations with Israel, m o r e than 1,100 Jews were known to have left Poland, according to the report, The exodus reportedly was caused by the anti-Semitic campaign and purges conducted by the Polish regime in the g u i s e of "antiZionism." The Polish Communist press recently accused Jewish intellectuals in Czechoslovakia of "Zionism" and with having had n major role in "counter-revolutionary" activities cited by the Soviet Union and invading Warsaw pact countries as justification for the occupation. Leading doctors, engineers, and o t h e r Jewish professionals have left Warsaw and other Polish cities, the report said.

Tel Aviv (JTA)—Speedy ond effective cooperation between police and Israel's security services was credited this week with the roundup of an Arab terrorist gang responsible for a series of explosions near the Tel Aviv Central Bus Station Sept. 4, which resulted in the death of one man and injury to 51 others. The explosions, c a u s e d by bombs placed in trash cans near the depot, so angered and enraged Tel A Vivians that hundreds of them attacked and beat up Arabs in the vicinity of the bus station and swept into Jaffa to attack Arabs there and demolish their stores and shops.

U.N. Action Israeli Foreign Ministry circles expressed sharp disappointment that the United Nations Security Council had failed to condemn Egypt for the ceasefire violation. Reports read to the emergency session of the Security Council by Secretary General U Thant from Lieut.Gen. Odd Bull, head of the ceasefire observers, assessed blame for starting the artillery exchange—the most severe since last October—on Egyptian gunners. Gen. Bull's report also blamed Egypt for delays in accepting a cease-fire. Israelis had expected more from the emergency s e s s i o n which was convened at Israel's urgent request. They were disappointed that the suggestion of Lord Caradon, the British representative, that the Council call on both sides to observe the ceasefire, was the sole action taken by the Council. Some 13raelis charged that t.ie failure

to condemn Egypt in this case demonstrated once again the weakness of the Council in all matters concerning the Middle East where it has to operate in the shadow of the Soviet veto. Soviet Involvement Israeli p o l i t i c a l observers have suggested that the Egyptian a t t a c k may have been launched by tacit agreement with Moscow to divert world attention from events in Czechoslovakia. In Washington, State Department sources said, however, that the United States did not see global ramifications that would involve the Soviet Union in the latest Israeli-Egyptian. Suez Canal clash. Officials said the motivation for the admittedly heavy Egyptian fire remained obscure although American diplomats tend to exonerate the Russians from any involvement with it. The United States position was defined as supporting the United Nations call for both sides to observe the ceasefire.

Views on Local Rcice Issues "The feelings and the ideas of all Omaha Jews on the role of the Jewish Community in the Urban Crisis will be sought at an important m e e t i n g next Thursday," said Steven niekes, President of Cornhusker Lodge B'nai B'rith. The lodge will act as host for a panel discussion and open community meeting, Thursday, September 19, at 8 p.m. at the Ranch Bowl. "This is the first open meeting for the Jewish Community on this subject in many years," said Mr. Ulekes. "This is n chance, for every Jew to make his feelings known to the leaders and members of the Jewish community." Mr. Hiekcs noted that the outcome of the meeting "may well determine future policies' of the Omaha Jewish Federation and other local Jewish organizations wtih regard to race relations." Jewish Hole Among the things to be discussed are whether or not the organized Jev&T.i Community has a partiotifar. .fole in the area

of race relations, or whether it should be left to the determination of individuals. The extent and the priority of Jewish involvement will also be discussed. Mr. Riekes said that the roles of defense organizations such as ADL and AJC will be evaluated to determine whether or not they should be allowed to speak for the Jewish community in this area. There will also be evaluations of what roles should be played by the synagogues; Jewish Federation and other local Jewish groups. "Every Omaha Jew has a stake in the decisions which may he made on the basis of fceiings expressed at this meeting," said Mr. Riekes. "I urge all concerned Jews to attend and make their feelings known." The opening panel discussion will be moderated by C. N. Newman. Panel members include Rabbi Isaac Nadoff, Mrs. M'ilton Waldbaum, Norman Hahn, Eli Zalkin, Morton Richard and Richard Fellman.

Arabs Beat Israelis In Population Race

Orthodox Rabbi Blasts

U.S.

JKKUSALEM UTA)—The Jewisb population of Israel has increased almost four times since the State was established 20 years ago but the Arab population has also increased and now stands at 14 per cent of the Jewish population compared to 11 per cent in 1048. the Central Bureau of Statistics disclosed. The Arab figures include East Jerusalem. The figures, taken from the statistical annual for l!l«7 to he published shortly, showed that the Jewish population of Israel increased at an average annual rate of 0.9 per CPIII xince 1«l4l!. The J e w i s h population then stood at 049.000. At the end of the year it was 2.:i?,.i.600, Immigration accounted for 1,100,000 and natural increase for C.'(3,000. Mass immigration was responsible for an annual population increase of 24 per cent during the peak years of immigration. liMS to l'JJl. In the last two years. however, immigration accounted for only two per cent of the annual increase.

Rabbi A a r o n Soloveichik. noted leader of American Orthodox Jewry and dean of the Hebrew Theological College in Skokie. III., declared that the c u r r e n t draft law should be amended to allow for selective conscientious objection. "It is immoral." declared the rabbi, "that the United States government will recognize objections of conscience only if expressed as unqualified opposition to all wars." While traditional J u ci a i s m t e a r h i' s tlial participation in "just wars"—such as wars of self defense—is a religious obligation, it sees participation in unjust wars as immoral and barbarous. About :S00 collegiates heard Rabbi Soloveichik d e l i v e r a three hour lecture on war at the national convention of Yavneb. the religious Jewish students association.

WASHINGTON (JTA) — VicePresident H u b e r t Humphrey, addressing the triennial national convention of B'nai B'rith here, reiterated his support of continued United Slates military aid to Israel and condemned (anti-Semitism unleashed by the Soviet Union in connection" with the o c c u patlon of Czechoslovakia. Richard M. Nixon, the Republican Presidential nominee, who was to address the convention later, -was expected io amplify a Weekend statement that he favored sale of United States military jets to Israel. The Democratic Presidential nominee told the 1,200 delegates and guests he felt that the real answer in the Middle East was ''arms control" but that Israel had a right to be strong enough to deter aggression and defend itself and that the United Slates had "a duty to respond favorably'' to Israeli requests for defensive arms "on grounds of our own security interests." In his w e e k e n d statement,

made at a press c o n f e r ence aboard his private plane during a San Francisco-Houston flight, Mr. N i x o n said also that "it would he a great threat to peace if Israel's neighbors, bent on a war-of revenge and .smarting" from the Arab defeat in the Six Day War, "are ever given the i m p r e s s i o n that they could launch a war with Israel and get away with it." Declaring also that it was "vital" for Israel to maintain military "superiority" relative to its Arab neighbors, Mr. Nixon said that "if it lakes Phantom jets, they should have Phantom jets." He added that "right now it is essential for Israel to maintain a solid military advantage in the interest of peace."

Mrs. Kaminska arrived from V i e n n a in a chartered plane carrying immigrants. She was accompanied by her husband and granddaughter and was met here by her brother, Josef Kaminsky, first violinist in the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. Mrs. Kaminska was unable to Bay whether she would establish permanent residence in Israel. "The fact that I am here," she said, "says much and s p e a k s for itself."

JOHANNESBURG (JTA) — South Africa's Jewish Community, strongly supported by many non-Jews, is up in arms over remarks by Police and Interior Minister S. L. Muller who reportedly singled out Jewish parents in a warning to keep their offspring from participating in student protests against Government policies. The South African J e w i s h Board of Deputies rebuffed an . appeal from Mr. iluller that it act to restrain Jewish youth. The South African Government meanwhile said it was all a misunderstanding and accused opposition l e a d e r s of trying to create a false impression that the Nationalist Party was antiSemitic. Mr. Muller said his remarks were misunderstood and wrongly interpreted. His appeal, he insisted was d i r e c t e d to all groups," I deplore the part played by Afrikaan students in university disturbances as much as Jewish students," said Mr.

been helped to resettle abroad," the newspaper reported. The Post noted, however, that "an estimated 250 Jews remain in confinement, principally in the Al-Thawra prison near Cairo. Brutality Other Jews freed previously have alleged that they were forced by prison officers to submit to sexual perversion and other indignities and were beaten and tortured." Last December the exodus was reduced to a trickle, and since July, the Post said, the Jewish exodus has apparently stopped. The Post reported that "a few Jews also have been able to get out of Iraq, but usually only upon forfeiture of their goods and payment of ransom. Syria has refused to grant exit permits. Spanish Aid France reportedly has been active also on their.behalf. Credited with the largest role in arranging the release of many of the Jews is the Spanish Ambassador in Cairo, Angel Sagaz. Mr. Sagaz. the Post n o t e d , "played an important role in getting Jews out of Nazi Germany during World War II." The Post quoted one Jew rescued from an Egyptian prison as saying that Ambassador Sag/ "went back as far as the inquisition in order to construe for the Sephardie Jews a Spanish origin and give them a passport."

They heard Rabbi Soloveichik assert that statements of national Orthodox g r o u p s notwithstanding, the current American participation in the Viet Num. war is immoral. While condemning draft evasion and affirming the right of any soldier < to defend himself on the battle field, the rabbi indicated that no soldier who finds himself in Viet Nam may participate in missions likely to result in injury or death to civilians •— such as indiscriminate napalm b o m b i n g of civilian areas.

President Y.-inkel Protei-t in his keynote address announced that Ilillel organizations on every American college campus were now reaching 100 percent of the American Jewish college population, and that the students were demanding more intensified Jewish pn>i;r-:i!!lining. Mr.Prote.st reported "that efforts were being made to bring back into the Jewish fold 'alienated Jewish adults," victims of primitive education practices at tlie turn ol the century. Mr. Protest reminded the young Jewish leaders that the college Ph.D. degree in Jewish itudies which cnm.axes Jewish education today, was undreamed of 50 years ago.

Washington— Was there a .special "Jewish" response to the events at tlie Democratic National Convention in Chicago? It appears that- Jews responded like everybody else— only ni o r e so.

Her action indicatrd the degree of commitment of youth to Friedman the c a u s e of peace and the new politics. The problem is different for older Jews. They have tradition ally supported dissent and the outer fringes of civil liberties but are now caught between radical leftist anarchy and the growing rightwing backlash. Chicago Reactions A consensus of Jewish delegates at Chicago indicated dismay over police behavior and the management of the convention. Included in the informal sampling w e r e d e l e g a t e s pledged to Vice-President Humphrey as well as McCarthy supporters. Most Jewish eyewitnesses found the use of brute lorce by authorities excessive. P r o v o c ations were acknowledged. This reporter Interviewed at random approximately 50 hippies, vippies and other young demonstrators. About one fourth identified themselves as Jewish. Some were militant in asserting their Judaism. Two girls wore mezuzzali necklace!, a youaft man displayed the Star of David, another youth proudly identified himself with Habonim, the Zionist youth ergeaizaiion.

Tiie new school year starts under the shadow of apprehension that a further decline in the enrollment in Jewish schools in this country may take place, especially in the afternoon schools. The attendance in Jewish schools has fallen from CO0.O0O in previous years to 540.000 in the school year just concluded. This is a substantial decline. All indications point to the possibility that during the new school year the number of pupils in all types of Jewish schools—with the exception perhaps of the allday schools—will go further down. Four reasons are seen as factors leading to the decline in the number of pupils in the afternoon schools. One of the major reasons is the reorganization which is now taking place in the general public school system in the larger cities. Jewish families—like many of their non-Jewish neighbors who do not want to be involved in racial issues—are moving to the suburbs where the public school problem is not so acute. They may find there is a Jewish Sunday school but no afternoon school. And most of them are not interested enougli to establish an afternoon school. Thus, their children who attend such a school in the city are lost to afternoon school education.

s .iid he was interested in Israeli survival and the preservation of democracy in the United States. He saw the Democratic Party committed to these aims. White lie thought the extent of U. S. involment in Vietnam was a mistake, "the danger of Communism is even more obvious after the war last year in the Middle East." Younger Jews said it looked to them as if Israel were able to take care of herself. There were more urgent problems. After Vietnam, there were "exploitation, police brutality, Fascism and racism in our cities." Nixon and Humphrey were ridiculed. President Johnson drew scathing denunciation. The old politics had to go. Gut it was not so clear what was to replace it. At least the young knew where they stood — for the moment They were spared the torment assailing middle aged Jews.

from the fact that about 200.000 pupils were enrolled in these schools last year. They constituted about 45 percent of all the children who attended the Jewish schools of all types. In the Jewish Sunday schools-, tlie pupils constituted only 42 percent of the total of enrolled children. Besides, pupils in the Sunday schools are younger than those attending the afternoon school—some of them are of kindergarten age. The all-day Jewish schools represent only 13 percent of the total of pupils in Jewish schools. -Thus, the afternoon school plays no small role as a link in Jewish education work. In fact, it plays the central role since it is sandwiched in between the Sunday school and the all-day school. In quality, it is of lesser weight than the all-day school, but far superior to the Sunday school where children receive a very meager Jewish education. To emphasize the importance of the afternoon schools, it is also worthwhile to point out that only one-half of the 1,106.000 Jewish children o* school age in this country are attending Jewish schools. The remainder receive no Jewish education whatsoever. This i3 deplorable enough, but the situation in the field of Jewish education will become even more deplorable should the enrollment in the afJ ternoon schools continue to drop, as feared.

Another reason for the anticipated dwindling in the enrollment in the schools is the decline in Jewish birth rate. The results of this decline were felt last year both in the Sunday schools and in the afternoon schools.
