At tin- beginning of the New Ycyr, it is timely to restate the purpose of our Jewish Federation. The fundamental concepts of the j'ederatioi) is well expressed by the ringing words of our prophet Jeremiah to "seek the welfare of the community in which you live . . . lor in its welfare shall be your peace." The Jewish Federation of Omaha has continued to work in the three areas ol chief concern to the Jewish community. It has carried on its purpose of strengthening , . . our J e w i s h community life through its mnnyfold local activities, designed to serve members of our community. Secondly, it has again demonstrated its deep and abiding interest in the welfare of our f e 11 o w-J e w s throughout the world, jind the people of Israel in its most critical and serious moment: and thirdly, it has become involved and is participating in the efforts to solve the MJcia] problems and the urban blight that afflict our cities. Locnlly, our objective of many years has been finally achieved. We have at last succeeded in obtaining a site for our new Jewisii Community Center buiklin.:,', a 10.7 acre are:), located at With and Western Avenue. Plans are now being made to proceed with a building proHarry Sklnum gram. At Camp Newman, an important structure was completed this year. This is the Kalah Franklin Memorial Chapel, which will serve our campers and offer them an opportunity for services and icligious experience. The Annual Campaign for the Jewish Philanthropies and Israel Emergency Fund was ably conducted under the general chairmanship of Dan Kalzman, and the Women's Division chairman, Mrs. Xeo Eisenstatt. The campaign is now in its final stage and .strenuous eflorts are being made to reach every prospect. It is my hope that in the Year 572!l. our Jewish Federation will continue its earnest activities to "seek the welfare" of the community in which we live; to strengthen our Jewish community life; to continue effectively our participation in the collective efforts to tolve the urban crisis to assure equality, dignity and freedom for nil Americans; and to heighten our interest and concern in the welfare of world Jewry, and in the existence and progress of the State of Israel. On behalf of the officers, hoard members and staff of the Jewish Federation and its departments, I extend best wishes to the members of our community for the New Year. May this be a Year of Blessings of health, of happiness, and above all a Year of Peace throughout the world. Harry Sldnian, President Jewish Federation of Omaha

Posthumous Wedding Denied Having won appiov.d of hi"nominal ion for the chief justice• ship in the 11-ti vote of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Justice Abp Fortas now fares an almost certain filibuster in the Senate. There is a prevailing belief that it will be difficult to get a two-thirds vote to stem file flow of words in the filibuster. But a slight hope i.s retained that the move led by Michigan's junior senator, Robert Griffin, will not succeed. Griffin's major backer in t'.ie filibuster move is South C&roJina's Senator Strom Thurmond. Senator Philip A. Hart of Michigan leads the fight for confirmation. Events the Past Week While he praised Fortas and expressed his opposition to filibusters. Richard M. Nixon said he'would stay out of the dispute end would leave it to the Senate for action. He had been challenged by Vice President Humphrey to declare himself on the issue. Senator Griffin suggested that Nixon stay out of the dispute. A lot of dirt was dragged into the issue, especially when it was announced that Fortas had received a $15,000 fee for American University lectures, and even the report that Fortas' wife, who was one of his law partners, was earning $250,000 a year, was injected into the news. But it has been indicated that many members of government, judiciary and Congress are receiving fees for lectures. American University officials defended Fortas' remuneration. Among the more r e c e n t charges again.st Fortas by Senator Strom Thurmond of South Carolina is that telephone connections were set up for the Supreme Court justice at President Johnson's insistence during the Six-Day Israel-Arab War. Anti-Semitism Sen. Edmund Muskie. Democratic Vice Presidential nomi-

nit s.nd on ABC's television program Issues and Answers" that "there may be" anti-Semitic overtones in the Senate opjiosition to continuation of Abe For tas as Chief Justice of the United Slates. An official of the American Jewish Committee said this week that "we do not view the Fortas case as being rooted in anti-Semitism, but it seems clear that anti Semites and extremists are exploiting and aggravating it." Nathan Perlmutter associate director of the AJCommittee's trends and analysis division, offered the comment in connection with a report he made publis that c h a r g e d extremist groups of the far right with a major role in stirring up opposition to President Johnson's appointment of Abe Fortas as Chief Justice of the United States. •While Mr. Fortas' faith has not figured in the statements of either rightwing or moderate opponents of his appointment this has not ben the case with organizations of the nation's overtly anti-Semitic movement." Mr. Perlmutter said. The rightwing groups, many of whose leaders publicly testified again.st the confirmation of Mr. Fortas, allege that the Associate Justice is a Communist or Communist sympathizer, according to the AJCommittee report. Extremist Groups Among these groups and individuals are the racist-tinged Liberty Lobby, the John Birch Society, the Conservative Society of America, founded by John Birch member Kent Courtney. Dan Smoot. publisher of the extremist rightwing Dan Smoot Report, and other extremist groups such as "We the People" and "Let Freedom • Ring." The appointment also has been attacked in viciously anti-

K. Smith, the AJCommittee report said. In Washington, Sen. Joseph S. Clark, Pennsylvania Democrat, warned that anti Semitism "is definitely playing a part in the opposition'' to the nomination. The Senator likeiifd the. Fortas nomination struggle to Hint which followed the nomination of Justice Louis 1). Hrandeis, the first Jew named to the U.S. Supreme Court. He said the Fortas ease was a "test of America's commitment to the ideals of fellowship and brotherhood" and assailed those who have remained silent on the Fortas issue. But Son. Clark disclosed that his mail has been running 11 to one against the Fortas confirmation. Opinion Poll A sample poll of adult Americans across the U.S. indicates that among those aware of the current debate over Fortas, 45.5 per cent favor his confirmation. Hie poll said 21.1 are opposed, and 26.4 per cent have no opinion. The poll was conducted by Sindlinger and Co. by long-distance telephone. It asked 1.866 persona of voting age in 48 states whether they were apprised of the facts. Onlv those who replied affirmatively, 49.7 per tent, were polled regarding their opinion. Regionally, those living in Eastern states were most in favor of Fortas: G3.9 per cent. Those in the South voted against by a vote of 54.5 per cent. In the Midwest. 45.6 per cent voted for confirmation, 25'.9 against.

Scheneetudy. N. Y. iJTAI— A Sehencctady rabbi described as "totally false and erroneous" widespread newsp;i|XT and radio reports that he had intended to perform a posthumous wedding ceremony lor an engaged couple killed in an auto crash. ihibbi Howard Joseph of Congregation Beth Israel said that he officiated at funeral .services in nearby Calsliill for Martha Levine, 21. and her fiance, Robert I*. Kames, 21, who were buried together in the .synagogue's cemetery. He explained that, during the funeral service, lie incut ioiied the fact that the two. who had planned to v.ed next •January, were now forever united in common tragedy.'' He said the bereaved parentsMr, and Mrs. Isaac Levins of New York City ami Mr. and Mrs, Harry Kancs of Catskill- had asked him if a posthumous wedding was possible and that he had told them that it was "inipos.siblo religiously and legally." A local newspaper picked up the idea from an obituary notice sent in by an Albany funeral director and the story reached tho wire services and was broadcast on radio and TV, in addition to widespread newspaper publication. Rabbi Joseph said he has been deluged by telephone calls from newspapers as far away as London) and Stockholm. Miss Ixivine, a Brooklyn Jewish hospital nurse, find Mr. Kanics, a New York University journalism student, were killed in a collision in Grant. K. M.

Israel promptly assailed the resolution as "another expression of the double standard" of the Council on Middle East issues and said it would "continue to fulfill its obligations to protect its citizens, military nnd civilian, nnd the territories under its control." Josef Tekoah. Israel's Ambassador, emphasized that the resolution had made no reference to the Israeli complaint on which Israel had asked for the Council meeting—an Egyptian ambush on Aug. 2G in which

Dr. Leary also asserted, according to lialtbi ISorvicli, that "many (if (lie Jewish flower children have joined the li i |> p i e movement out of rejection of (lie slium and hypocrisy «[ their parents' lives and that (lie Jewish liojne has lost most of its original vitality and its spirituality has. been dulled."

NEW.YORK (JTA) — The education editor of the New York Times warned of the growth of anti-Semitism amoiifi Negroes particularly in connection with the New York City school situation. A "sick and dangerous kind of racism" is developing in the conflict over decentralization of the school system, Fred M. Hechinger wrote. ''Anti-Semitism among some Negro separatists should not he minimized," he declared, "But there is also strong indication that more of the growing antiSemitism in the all-Negro areas is of the angry, largely economically motivated kind that sees tho successful shopkeeper, the policeman, the bankteller and, of course, the t e a c h e r as the enemy because he represents the power structure." Mr. Hechinger declared that "in such irrationality it matters little that the whites who work in the Negi'o ghcttoes and their schools are SD often Jews only because the Jews were among the last to rise from their own ghcttoes." He noted that''some Jewish teachers who have worked hard to i m p r o v e the lot of their pupils, black or white, and who understandably r e s e n t some N e g r o e s ' indifference to .the lonj; years - of | Jewish suffering, are probably being driven into rt position that makes them appear to be anti-Negro in reply.

Toronto <JTA)—The American publishers of Protestant Sunday School text books were asked to delete unnecessarily oflensive and unusually inaccurate references to Jews in lessons based on the New Testament. Gerald S. Strober, of New York, director ol a textbook project sponsored jointly by the National Conference of Christian and Jews and tin; American Jewish Committee, said that his own irivc:;ti|;alion and thai of Dr. Bemhard Olson, of the Yale University Divinity School, indicated that Protestant books olten assign motives and roles to Jews that are historically incorrect, lie said be is studying the books of 12 American Protestant groups, denominational and independent, but declined to identify them.

But it should not be too surprising that anti-Semitism, a l o n g with anti-white racism, breeds in the poverty and ignorance pent up in Negro slums."

Mr. S t r o b e r said that his study, and a much b r o a d e r seven-year^ investigation by Dr. Olson of 120.000 Protestant Sunday School lessons, were undertaken to see bow Jewish Ufa and religion were treated. He said the studies were designed as an aid to Protestant groups, not as a criticism of them, ICxample An e x a m p l e of what' the studies f o u n d was the New Testament portrayal of Pontius Pilate as a man "with good instincts who couldn't make a decision." That shortcoming allowed him to be pressured by Jewish fanatics into sentencing. Jesus to die on the cross. "However," Mr. Strober said, "history describes a different kind! of Pilate—a Roman functionary who had little c o m p u n c t i o n about putting people to death." Because of the h i s t o r i c evidence, "it was hard to tell who bore the greater responsibility for Christ's death and it was therfore irrational to place all the blame on the Jews as soina Christians tended to do," Mr. Strober said.

Israelis Observe J e r u s a l e m (JTA) — Huge crowds milled on the streets of Israel's major cities in last minute shopping for the High Holy Days, buying shofars and preparing rooms and apartments to serve as makeshift synagogues. Some 200 additional praying rooms were added by such means'to Jerusalem's 500 synagogues. Cantors were at a premium and fees for their Eosli Haslitinah and Yom Kippur services ranged between $200 and $1,000. Bus and railway services were augmented with additional trains and pensioned bus drivers were recruited for service for the rush of travelers. At least 1,000,000 of Israel's 2,500,000 Jews spent tho High Holy Days away from their homes, with Jerusalem the most favored place where an estimated 300,000 Jews planned to slay for visits to the. Western Wall for services.

THE f.ENKKATION: GAP Congratulations and compliments to you for devoting this year's Rosh Hashonah Jewish Press edition to the Generation Gap and for granting Ihe young generation the opportunity to s p e a k their hearts and their minds and "Telling It Like It Is." With this opportunity you have made it more possible to bridge the chasm between the old and the young generation— an opportunity which too often in the past has not been granted to the rising generation. To the credit of the young Jewish college students: in their reaction to the current human panorama and the passing parade of people and in their verbalized response to the world about them as Jews and as heirs of an ancient people, they have s h o w n tluil they are not as silienated and uncommitted to the essential moral, social and spiritual values of the Jewish people as many of the older generation are inclined to think. That they are seriously thinking and seeking for a positive re-valuation of the intellectual and spiritual heritage of our people in spirit with the times and "in spirit with their vital needs is indeed heartening and should give heart to their p a r e n t s , teachers and leaders. There is no longer any doubt but that we are living between two worlds fast flying apart; and jf we fail to bridge that gap; it will be at our own peril. Therefore, ir- is the older generation that must go most out of the •way, in understanding and ' empathy, toward that objective ef turning the'hearts and minds of the,fathers and mothers to their children; and the hearts of the children to them.

(JET OUT! —Cantor Jacob AltIC STRIKES ElHITAlSU:? I know the trials and woes of working men. and I have always fell for them. I know that in most cases of strikes, the men have a justcau.se for complaint. Show me the country in which there are no strikes and I'll show you that country in which there is no liberty. In the interest ol health, education, and welfare, however, there are certain professions which should not s a n c t i o 11 strikes. How does one place a value on the education denied innocent and eager youngsters who studies have been disrupted by the recent teacher's strike in the east? To be effective a teacher must project an image for the student to look up to. When a pupil sees his teacher inarching around his school carrying signs and perpetrating violence he immediately understands that if it's alright for his teacher to take part in this ignominious act—whether physical or verbal —it should be alright for him to engage in some sort of mischief. And in most cases results in loss of respect for the teacher by the pupil. Can a teacher who does not command the respect of his/her class impart knowledge in these young minds? Now more than ever before, strikes are being won or lost— depending upon the manner reported by the news-media. More often than not the issues are either distorted, slanted, or contrived. The swing of p u b l i c opinion, as a result of this, is a major factor in labor disputes, but with the settlement of strikes being thrown more and more in the laps of public officials, the question of public opinion becomes of greater importance. For it is public opinion that moves those elected to action along one course or another. Lester J. Douccl

Ihe Right Prayer An American, visitor was having dinner with an Israeli family and the main dish was hotdogs. Before eating, the host intoned the prayer, ending with ''hamotze lechem min ha'aretz." The American hastened to c o r r e c t him. "You made a mistake," he said. "You just said the prayer for bread. It's obvious you don't know your prayers," "It's obvious," the Israeli replied, "you don't know our hotdogs!"

U.S. Jewry. A politician who backs Israel with generous adjectives is no l o n g e r automatically.supported. Concerns have broadened. A deep commitment to Israel remains. It is obviously traumatic for any Jew to see Russia go the limit lor the A r a b s while W a s h i n g t o n evades Israel's pleas. Yet Israel is not the only issue. Last April's race riots crystallized a growing Jewish response to the mounting wave of crime and violence. The anti-Semitism of some black power extremists is no longer i g n o r e (1. Disruptions in major c i t i e s and the o b v i o u s failure to meet the urban crisis vexss- ninny sensitive people, including Jews. Oilier Issues A Jewish men's club recently invited a non-Jewish Congressman to address a Sunday breakfast. The Congressman reported that, to his surprise, the program chairman bluntly told him they did not want him to speak on the Middle East. They wanted a review of the domestic economic situation — inflationary tendencies, interest rates, the

.'lock market, and so forth. He did not get to use a carefully prepared address on Russian aspirations in the Mediterranean. Another Congressman was not briefed and 1 a u n c h e d the jet issue. "After giving Nasser hell for an hour," lie said, "they hit me with the question p e r i o d . And every question was on Vietnam, which I would rather avoid because I don't know the solution." A senator was asked about his mail and what seemed to be of most current interest to Jewish constituents. He answered without a second's hesitation: "Reform of the Selective Service system. Every Jewish constituent must have a son in graduate school. And I agree with them. The administration of the draft has been lousy. One Jewish father wrote me that his son returned from serving in Africa, as a Peace Corps volunteer, to be put on the top of the list by bis draft board. Jews are disgusted by the mess in Vietnam and I don't blame them. That is Ihe main Jewish sentiment that gets to me."

The President's Speech President Johnson's speech at the B'nai B'rith convention in Washington has led to a great deal of confusion and misunderstanding. As reported in the press the following day, Mr. Johnson was said to have indicated that no Phantom jet bombers would be sold by the United States to Israel now or in the near future. This is now being denied by a White House spokesman, who insists that the President never made such a statement and contends that the whole issue of supplying Israel with the supersonic jets remains open. The President, says the spokesman, holds the matter under consideration in accordance with the promise he made to- Israel's Premier, Levi EshUol, when the two leaders met at Ihe Johnson ranch in Texas last January. Be that as it may, it is unfortunate that the President's speech contained sufficient ambiguities on a clearcut issue to require interpretations by his spokesman. Regardless of what the White House spokesman may say about what Mr. Johnson said, the fact remains that the President did not come forth with any positive assurance or commitment to Israel with respect to that country's urgent defense needs. The impression many of those who heard the LBJ address carried way was that the President does not think the Israelis are imperilled by the vast military buildup of the Arab states by the obliging Russians; It would appear thai Mr. Johnson in his appraisal of the Midest problem, equates the war-bent Arabs with the peace-seeking Israelis. This approach is surely based on a false perspective of the Middle East situation. Since the Six-Day War of June 1967 all reliable reports show that the tremendous losses suffered by the Arabs have been more than replaced by the Red fascists of the Kremlin. This is not to be attributed to a figment of the Israeli imagination or to an idle boast by the humiliated Arab mis-leaders. Our Defense Department experts, acting in conformity with information from U.S. intelligence agencies on the mounting Soviet military build-up in the Arab stales, recommended to President Johnson prior to his li'nai H'rilli speech that he approve the sale of Phantom jet fighter-bombers to Israeli Congressional sources who disclosed this said, according to JTA reports from Washington, they were puzzled by the President's failure to act in view of the massive sentiment favoring the trans-' action. They said the President was fully aware of the presence of the Soviet air force and military personnel in Egypt and of the growing ratio of Arab supersonic airpower numerical superiority over Israel. (The Arabs now enjoy an estimated 5 to 1 supremacy in supersonic jets, with some evaluations placing the edge as high as 6 to J.) Nevertheless, in the face of all this, the President said no Why? Some friends of Israel seem inclined to ascribe his action to sinister motivations, going so far as to imply that the President would stop at nothing to undercut his Vice President who only the day before Mr. Johnson's speech at the B'nai B'rith convention expressed himself in favor of more U.S. military aid to Israel. We do not share these sordid interpretations of the President's motives. Nothing in his whole past record justifies suspecting him of harboring anti-Jewish or anti-Israel feeling. Quite the contrary. Where then is the answer? As seen by Washington observers, the key to the riddle lies in Ihe Stale Department. Washington dispatches have agreed that the State Department was the one top administrative agency of the government which was adamantly opposed fo selling Israel any Phantoms. It would appear that Mr. Johnson, like so many'other Presi-. dents before him, both Democratic and Republican, has reposed his fullest trust in the handling of our complex foreign affairs by State. We have long suspected that in a showdown the oil-motivated gentlemen at Stale would be prepared lo classify Israel in the expendable category. .' —The American Examiner.

1 MUST CONTRIBUTI ISRAEL'S SURVIVAL . . . Last year Ihe guns of the Arab States were aimed at Israel. Their aim was annihilation . . . another "final solution." Israel survived. But new guns are being assembled, new threats muttered. Let us remember on Kol Nidro night our vital contribution to Israel's continued survival. Give, as last year, at Emergency Level.

'QUESTION: Why Is the shofar'blown at (lie end of Hie Bay ol Yom Kippur in the synagogue? ANSWER: A number of reasons are given for this practice. Some claim that this was done to be a signal for the housewife that the fast was over and that she can at once feed the children who may have fasted that day. Others claim that it is reminiscent of the blast of the shofar that would be blown after Yom Kippur on the Jubilee year in the days of the Temple, Still others claim that the reason for the shofar blast at the end of Yom Kippur was to signal the community to prepare for the mood of festivity which took over in the Jewish community at the conclusion of the Day of Atonement. Some others claim that the blast of the shofar signifies the departure of the Divine presence which has been close to us all day during Yom Kippur. They trace this to the Psalms which write "The Almighty ascends with the sound of the.Shofar." One opinion claims that it is blown to drive off Satan who begins his task of persecuting humans all over again.

WASHINGTON—An appeal to the "silent majority" in the Negro community to provide its own 'black answers" to the racial crisis was made by the president ol B'nai B'rith at the organization's 125th anniversary convention. •Dr. William A. Wexler of Savannah, Ga., declaring that white America had "copped, out" on racial equality for 100 years, said that "the black man tod;ry is deaf -and properly so --- to white America's cliches." But lie deplored the breakdown in communication between the races to "a kindling kind of communication -- the combustible rumor," and called for a '•militancy of the majority" by that large, silent Negro element. Dr. Wexler warned that deepening racial divisiveness hold;; "profound implications" for an American J e w i s h. community troubled by both the failure of the Negro community to achieve equality and growing incidents of '-discrimination in reverse'1 against Jewish businessmen, educators, social workers and others "visible and vulnerable" in.the black ghetto. The Jewish community "cannot reject the black man's quest for justice—or, just as evil, igmnt it—and meet the test of Jewish ethics,1' Dr. Wexler said. There could be no challenge, he added, to the black community's desire "to r e m o v e the shackles." to share fully in a society of freedom equality and abundance, and "to be itself— to interpret its own culture and its own concepts for community lile." But neither could the Jewish community "shrug off the penalty of a*gutted business to a v i c t i m i z e d shopkeeper,'1 Dr.

Wexler said. "In too many cases, the penalty was a lifetime's work shattered and destroyed. Thai's a brutal price for an innocent victim to pay — and it has bought nothing lasting or worthwhile* to ease the anguish ol the ghetto." Negro demands lo replaco white teachers and others in the ghetto raise the question of whether "the evil of one discrimination can reallv ho cured \Vc\-lrr said. The B'nai i'.'rilh president said that white America is hearing the views of "black extremists talking up violence and making unli-S e in i t i c noises," and of "black separatists favoring a, segregated, self-sufficient and politically independent N e g r o community." He urged that the silent niapority "find its voice and niako itself heard." This did not mean that its views "need be conciliator)' or. even moderate, or should seek to accommodate the attitudes and preconceptions of w b i t e America." Dr. Wexler said. But. he added, "the dominant black community, having told it to us like it is, must not cop out in telling how it wants to br» —and join in honest dialogue* with white America."
