TEL AVIV (JTA)—Premier Golda Meir warned this week that the Lebanese border was Israel's "new trouble spot" and said that top priority would be given to the construction of shel« ters in Israeli villages near the Lebanese frontier. Mrs. Meir spoke at a meeting of the Histadrut leadership as reports reached here of new clashes between Lebanese Army troops and guerrlllas massed in the southern portion of the country. : The guerrillas were said to belong to the Syrian-backed al-Saiqa (Thunderbolt) organization.

The Lebanese military command denied tho charge.

Jerusalem (JTA) — Foreign Ministry officials vigorously denied this week foreign press reports that Israel had built five n u c l e a r bombs. They called such reports "speculative, unaH-t&orized and unfounded." The report in the Montreal Gazette w h i c h was re-published in the London Evening Standard was attributed to an as yet unpublished article in De Spiegel, the West German weekly. The officials said such reports "crop up from time to time" but that "Israel is not a nuclear state." The Government's p o l i c y remains; they said, that Israel will not be the first nation to introduce such weapons into the Middle East. The Montreal Gazette story, written by Peter Lust, its foreign a f f a i r s specialist, said that existence of the alleged bombs was discovered by a group of Der Spiegel journalists. The Gazette described the bombs as 20 kiloton atomic . bombs similar to those dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the closing days of World War II. It said the bombs were produced at a nuclear testing station in the Negev Desert 11

Bonn (JTA)—National Democratic l e a d e r Von Thadden claims his party has established contacts with sympathetic politicians in Britain, France and the U. S., though he refused to name them. He spoke at the close of the NPD's pre-election congress in Stuttgart after 600 delegates unanimously approved a Nazi-like platform andcheered speakers who exhorted Germans to stop feeling guilty over the country's World War II deeds. Mr. Von Tbadden said he had "opened contacts" with two members of the British Parliament in the interests of the NPD's "democratic i m a g e . " He said that "political friends" in F r a n c e , including some members of Parliament, had helped the NPD approach Government authorities in Paris and that the NPD had also succeeded in approaching "important American politicians."

New York (JTA)—The Synagogue Council of America and the.National Jewish Community Relations Advisory Council, representing a great majority of the American Jewish community, issued a Joint statement rejecting the demand of the National Black Economic Development Conference for $500 million in reparations for "200 years of slavery" and its threat to seize churches and synagogues and hold them in ransom. The joint statement described the demands and the tactics as objectionable on both "moral and practical grounds." The statement was issued after James Forman, leader of the Negro organization, disrupted services at New York's Riverside Church to air his de-

Among those who responded to the survey questionnaire, was an Illinois staff member who reported that "almost all" the high school students in a nearby middle class area can obtain "pot" with little difficulty. Similar was a report from Winnipeg: "I have no figures, but I know the 'stuff is as close as a telephone call."

Bonn (JTA) — A neo-Nazi group which declares itself to be "permeated with the spirit of our Fuehrer, Adolf Hitler," met in secret session in Hanover on Friday in defiance of a ban by, the Ministry of Interior. The group calling itself the Association of German National Socialists, is headed by Wolf-Dieter Eckart, a 29-yearold electronics engineer from Hamburg. Eckart said his group supports "the ideals of Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich" and wanted to give other Germans "the possibility of working with us for the reconstruction of Germany. We agree with all he (Hitler) did," Eckart said. "The Jews are an international problem today. They are not our job anymore."

"strengthen c o m munications with black communities, and to contribute to the support of indigenous self-help projects." The joint statement condemned the tactics used by the Black Economic Conference to further its demands, charging that they "involve disruption of divine services, demands for 'ransom' and threats of violence." It noted that "violence does not contribute to the fashioning of a better society." The Synagogue Council of America speaks for six national rabbinical and synagogue organizations. The NJCRC, in addition to the Synagogue Council members, includes six national Jewish civic' organizations and 81 Jewish councils in cities throughout the U n i t e d States. The Black Economic Conference's demand for $500 million in "reparations" was endorsed by the board of the Interreligious Foundation for Community Organization, but the Foundation did not approve the tactics announced by Mr. Forman , and employed at R i v e r s i d e Church.

Three scholarships, each worth $900 remain to be awarded in the organization s two-year-old summer pilgrimage program for black Jewish students, according to directorYaacov Gladstone.

The awardees will spend eight weeks studying,' traveling, working in kibbutzim and meeting other studenrgroups in Israel.

Teen Thoughts By STEVE NEESMAN The following poem was read at a BBYO convention last December. Since then I have' shown it to many people—some like it very much and others thought it offensive. I now share it with all of you.

Don't let these animals beat - you. Don't let them win. But it is so hard . .--. so difficult. And if there is a God, A God who loves and cares for "__h!s people, _ We wouldn't be here. My mother wouldn't have died. Four million wouldn't be dead. ' And if there is a God, Ihate him Because he allowed this to happen. The sun rose this morning.

Upon her return to Israel she became a popular idol. Her voice was full and pleasant, and she had a wide repertoire ^of folk songs of many nations. At the age of 34, unmarried, she was regarded by many as Israel's No. One singing star. New cult The- first indication of any change came with her request this past year that she wished

to be known as "Helena" instead of Nechama. Radio audiences were puzzled to hear the familiar voice introduced as Helena Hendel. Word spread t h a t she had been attracted to a new spiritualist movement known as "Subud", and centered .in London. The change of name signified her new loyalty. Then one day the press reported that she had on short notice cancelled all her scheduled engagements, s o l d her car, and flew Off to Germany to marry a g u i t a r i s t , nine years her junior, who was a follower of the same cult, Nechama's departure was a great shock to the public, but all agreed* that her personal life was her private affair, New Nechama Nechama's arrival was also a sensation. This was the famous Nechama Lifschitz. To many she was a legend; the vocal soul of Soviet Jewry,, who travelled from city to city in Russia, offering her..program of Yiddish, Russian and Hebrew folk songs. To Russian Jewry she was a symbol of their tenuous link with the Jewish world, Jewish culture, the Jewish p e o p l e . Even young people, who.knew no Yiddish, flocked to her con-

Jhe Jewish Quiz Box QUESTION: What is the meaning of the name "Shcvuot" as applied to the Jewish festival which bears this name? - ANSWER: There are at least three derivations for this name. The literal meaning as it is used in the Bible in connection with setting the date for this holiday is "weeks." In this respect, tho term would recall that the festival of Shevuot is one which is always dated as being seven "weeks" after the first day of Passover. Unlike the other holidays, the Bible does not cite a specific day of the month as the date of this festival. It only records that tho day of the festival is arrived at by counting a period of seven weeks.

Another derivation of this word would be that it constitutes the Hebrew expression for the number "seven." Some mystic sources indicate that tho number seven implies a spirit of holiness. A third derivation of this term relates it to the Hebrew word for "vow." This might refer to the contention that vows were taken by the people of Israel when they were at the foot of Mount Sinai at tho period of tho revelation—anevent which this holiday c o m m e m o r a t e s .
