Jewish Museum Removes Black Panther Pamphlets .. NEW YORK (JTA)—The Jewish Museum has removed Black i; Panther pamphlets from a lobby display because" "quite a num" ber" of members and visitors objected to the party's anti-Zionism and alleged anti-Semitism. But museum chairman David Finn told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that the board's decision was 1 not in any way in response to last week's threat by the Jewish Defense League to picket the museum if the Panther literature were not removed. , Mr. Finn, said he had not heard of the threat of the JDL, iwhlch considers the Panthers extremo anti-Semites. The chair-. ', man said there had been an agreement with the New York Artists ' Strike Against Racism, Repression and War not to include in its '.display any material "that is offensive to anybody of any religious persuasion." . The dissident artists, who include Panthers, charged the museum with censorship and unsuccessfully sought to add pro-Israel material to their display as a compromise. Among the "offensive" portions of the Panther material was an attack on "U.S. i warmongers In Vietnam, Cambodia and Palestine."

Rabbinical Court Okays Conversion approval to the conversion ol American-born Mrs. Helert Zledmann, who underwent Orthodox conversion rites the previous week. It did so by rejecting an appeal against the conversion filed by Shalom Co* hen, a New Left Knesset member who held that the conver* sion performed by Army Chief Chaplain Shlomo Goren and two other military chaplains constituted military interference in civilian affairs. The rabbinical court claimed that Mr. Cohen had no standing as an interested party and therefore would not appeal* There was no word on how tha rabbinical court planned to deal with an appeal filed at the same time as Mr. Cohen's by a group of rabbis associated with A g u d a t h Israel wluy charged that Mrs. Zddmann had received insufficient instruction for admission to Judaism. The conversion had been car* ried out swiftly after Mrs. Ziedmann agreed under sever* pressure-from government leaders to undergo rites for a second time.

Funds Stopped for Smith Shrine Road New York (JTA)-The AntiDefamation League of B'nai B'rith commended U.S. Secretary of T r a n sportation John Volpe for stopping the expenditure of federal funds on a road project leading to a shrine' o p e r a t e d by "the notorious anti-Semite, Gerald Smith" in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Mr. Volpe announced that after reviewing the proposal ,he had withheld approval because the expenditure of the required funds "was not sup_pgrted by the road service that would be provided. After announcement of the federal grant was made last December the ADL sent a telegram to President Nixon urging him to direct Commerce Secretary Maurice Stans and Transportation Secretary Volpe to withdraw :government financing. The Eureka Springs project include a seven story, high statue of Christ, a "Passion Play" and a "Christ Only Art Gallery," all run by the Foundation. The League, which maintains a regional office in the area, was particularly critictal of the Smith version of the "Passion Play" which it said conveys the message that the Jews as a people are guilty of deicide.

This is believed to be the first time the Kremlin, which has heretofore maintained a distinction between culture and politics, has made such a- decision. A Soviet spokesman explained that "No Soviet artist is permitted to work with or aid artists of other nationalities if the latter are favorable or helpful to the Israeli aggressors." In New York, the American Jewish Congress termed the reported Soviet decision "ludicrous" and "ah ominous development In the Soviet campaign against its own Jewish community and against Israel."

When? The 1979 Omaha Jewish Philanthroples-UJA-Israel Emergency fond Campaigns nears a close with a record-breaking $1,036,356 pledged to-date. „„ But that's only part of the story. To-date only one-third, $433,771 has b e e n paid on these pledges. , There.is no question that the pledges were made in good faith, and will be paid. The question is when, and how long can we afford to wait. Israel needs cash—NOW. They cannot stop border protection until the stock market goes op. They can't halt Immigration until American businessmen produce more sales or until the tight money situation eases. Israel's survival can't wait. We must start paying campaign pledges now.

News Around the World RIO DE JANEIRO (JTA)-A leading Rio newspaper, Jornal do Brasil, reports t h a t 14,000 Arab refugees have entered Brazil since the Six-Day War. The paper said the Immigration Is continuing at the rate of 40-60 persons a month. The Arab refugees, many illiterate the paper said, come on tourist visas withouV.jfre right to. work here. They receive no assistance from the many Arab organizations in the country with the exception of El Fatah, the terrorist organization, which seeks to-find recruits among them.
ate refused to end the $600 million in the Foreign Military Sales Act for credit of U.S. arms abroad. Observers noted this money could be used to give Israel fast credit if Nixon approved the request for more jet warplanes. By a 50-1 vote the Senate refused to remove language from the bill urging Persident Nixon to make such credits available to Israel if he decided she needed arms help. Senator John Williams, Delaware Republican, offered both amendments. He said he did not intend to stall possible aid to Israel but to give Congress control over which nations would get U.S. arms.

The Significance of What Rogers Did Not Say By Sam LJpskl The most significant thing about the latest American peace initiative in the Middle East other than what was not said publicly, is that it represents a unilateral move by Washington outside the framework of the useless Two and Four Power talks. • For once the tactics and emphasis in the American proposals are as important, if not more important, than the actual substantive details of the diplomatic plans put to the Israeli and Arab governments. In short, the new American initiative is a .'mixed and typically Nixohlan bag, not all

that alarming and-not all that reassuring. What about the 125 planes Israel requested? Certainly there will be widespread concern that the United States has let Israel down by not complying publicly with the request. Yet the lack of a public announcement does not necessarily mean that the request has been rejected. The most informed conjecture in Washington Is that the Nixon administration has assured Israel privately that the air force can rely on conthra-. ing supplies of Phantoms and Skyfaawks certainly as replacements for planes lost, and where essential In an emergency. That, it must be emphasized, Is conjecture only. This may not satisfy Israel sufficiently. But there are signs that the Jerusalem government understands American reluctance to make, public announcements of arms sales and can live with the secrecy. After all, France sold Israel much larger quantities of arms over a period of ten years between 1956 and 1967 and neither government felt it necessary to. tell the press about it in detail. ' The situations are different^ of course. Everyone now attaches all sorts of extra signi-
by President Nixon and now concluded reached some hard conclusions. Hardly an earthshattering development, b u t relatively reassuring. As stated above one of the. most significant of these conclusions was that any movement towards peace in the Middle East could not come so long as the United States operated only In tandem with the Soviet Union m the Two Power talk*, or with Britain, France and the Soviet Union in the Four Power talks. Washington had to act itself. So it informed the other powers. But its proposals were submitted directly to the Arabs and Israel as American proposals by-passing the Russians. After long weeks of indecision and seeming unconcern about, the enormity of- the Soviet expansion in the Middle East, this unilateral diplomatic and political campaign by Washington suggests that the harsh realities have received some long over-due attention. ' While this will please' the Israelis, they will certainly express disappointment about the lack of an announcement on planes. But Jerusalem knows, as the U.S. State D t t
* « • tothe sale emplane* « « tary value. With jhe intervention of the Soviet pilots and SAM missiles into Egypt the planes are seen as pawns in the power game between Moscow and Washington. They are also seen as sym. bolic tests of American firmness of purpose and commitment to Israel. If the press c onference called by Secretary of State Rogers had been limited only to a refusal to announce the American decision on the Israeli request for planes, then there would have been widespread justification for deep -concern about how the Nixon administration was facing up to^. those tests. •^ But the peace initiative as revealed hi Secretary Rogers' answers to questions showed some hopeful nuances from Washington. These suggest that the comprehensive review of all political and military aspects of the SovlcUntcrveutiou ordered

made the peace initiative all that much more difficult. Into the offices of the State Department over the last few weeks, and especially since the terrorist battles over Jordan, have come alarming cables from American ambassadors in Arab capitals warning of the burning down of embassies and dangers 'to American citizens and property if there was major public announcement on planes for Israel. ' This kind of explosive mob action may now have been avoided, and if Israel is assured that the planes will be. made available more discreetly, it may have been to everyone's advantage. If it becomes clear however, that Israel's needs are not now being met, then not only will the peace initiatives be c o m p l e t e l y doomed, but American credibility will have been even more, seriousjy, threatened. - ; .

a kosher kitchen supervised by the Richmond Kashruth Council. Arrangements for loan of the dishes were worked out by a committee comprised of rep-, resentatives of Richmond synagogues, the Kashruth Council, the Jewish Community Council and the center. Under the new arrangement, a caterer who wants to use the dishes for a social function checks with the center on the availability of the dishes. If they are available, he will call Rabbi Moshe Shulvalsky, the supervising rabbi of the Kashruth Council, for permission to use the dishes. With the rabbi's permission, the caterer may then pick up the dishes; which are packed in cartons and sealed • before leaving the center. The rabbinic supervisor at the function is the only person authorized to break the .seal at the caterer's facility. The dishes must be washed, re-packed and sealed after use in the presence of the rabbinic supervisor.

New Books at The JCC Library THE BADERS OF JACOB STREET By Henia Karmel-Wolfe • J. B. Llpplncott Co. This is a love story that transcends time and place: The story of love between man and woman, love between parent and child, love between man and God, all the kinds of love that cannot and will not be destroyed. The Baders are the sort of people everyone looks to for guidance. Samuel is the end-product of a wealthy family. Amelia, his wife, is a loving woman with hidden strengths. Halina, their daughter, is like young girls everywhere, growing up, reaching out, tasting life and wanting it all. When World War II Comes to Poland, the Baders try to escape, but, discovering the futility of flight, they return to their home in Krakov. They, their friends and neighbors can only wait and watch with mounting horror and disbelief, as their lives, their homes, the very basis of their being, are systematically destroyed.. . The Baders of Jacob Street is an outstanding novel. More than that, it is a moving testament to the magnificence of the human spirit that justifies man's right to be. THE CONFRONTATION Geltman, Max ' Prentice-Hall, Inc. . In this outspoken and thought-provoking volume, Max Geltman takes a hard look at the many antagonisms between black and white American; that erupted during the sixties and continue to fester painfully within our society today. One of the most complex and mystifying manifestations of the racial crisis is the mounting hostility between Negroes and Jews. Paradoxically, the American Jewish community has been perhaps the most vocal and. active white group in the struggle for Negro rights. Yet for all his good Intentions, the Jew suffers from a kind of "dual identity"—as simultaneously both benefactor; and exploiter—in the eyes of the black community. Mr. Geltrnan's scope extends beyond the dynamics of the NegroJewish confrontation. like a prophet of old, he challenges 11 nayoftecop -nianyof-tbe-conceptuatMsaered-eows —inteUtlridffiit tbat impeded b t have h i d d progress in i this thi critical ritil domestic area. THE CONFRONTATION is a disquieting book. Mr. Geltman dares to question the myths and to confront the issues which are dividing America today. • Uqson

Conservative Jews Call for Modernifafioti off Jewish Law Jerusalem (JTA)—Delegates representing Conservative Judaism in 26 countries h e a r d calls this week for pressure to modernize halacha—Jewish religious law—to make it applicable . and relevant to contemporary life. Addressing the eighth biennial convention here of the World Council of Synagogues, Prof. Ernst Simon of Hebrew University declared, ''Never in history did halacha change without pressure. It is pressure that will bring change." Dr". Simon said there was a significant religious awakening in Israel, especially in the kibbutzim and among youth who for years were distant from their ^Jewish religious heritage but are now seeking to come ucloser4Q_lheir_Jewjsh_roQts.__ Dr. Pinchas Pell agreed that many Israelis are seeking to return to their Jewish heritage but cannot identify themselves . with the present religious establishment in Israel which has

assumed the corpus of a political party. He said the answer for such Israelis must be the Conservative movement and called on Conservative Jews in America .to help expand the movement's activities in Israel. There are presently only four Conservative, congregations in Israel. Rabbi Mordechai Meyr, of the Latin American Council of Synagogues said 80 percent of Latin American Jewish youth are completely out of touch with Judaism. The remaining 20 percent are affiliated l h ^
synagogues, Zionist organizations and youth movements, For the majority, however, Judaism and Jewlshness is alien and it associates itself with revolution and the New Left. Rabbi Meyr said the problem was universal as youth everywhere is in a revolutionary mood and seeks a changed world. But in Latin America the problem is more acute than in other places because the social gap between classes is so visible and the goal of social reform is so attractive he said.
