AJC to Educate Travelers On Anti-Semitic Passion Play New York OTA)—The American Jewish Committee announced this week that it will embark on a systematic decade-long educational program "to counteract the anti-Semitic : effects of the Oberammergau Passion Play. ~~~ Rabbi Marc H. Tanenbaum, national director of AJC's Interreligious Affairs D e p a r t ment,' made the announcement in connection with publication of the findings of AJC's comparison of the 1960 and 1970 versions of the play's text. This analysis revealed that, ' despite some minor changes, t h e Oberammergau Passion P l a y remains "fundamentally hostile to J e w ; and Judaism." Copies of the study were distributed last spring to thousands of scholars, clergymen and travel agencies in the Vnited States, Canada and Europe. Since that time, said Rabbi Tanenbaum, thousands of tourists have bypassed the play. He cited, among others, a priest in Cleveland who is conducting a tour of Europe this summer. He has cancelled his group's reservations at Oberammergau and is taking them
to visit Dachau concentration camp instead. "We are now making available our analysis of the Oberammergau play as an educational document to as large an audience of potential tourists as we can possibly reach," the rabbi said. He hopes by 1980 Oberammergau officials will find the theatrical explitation of antiSemitism no longer commercially profitable. Rabbi Tanenbaum also reported that the German airline Lufthansa has discontinued advertising the Oberammergau passion Play as a tourist attraction. A professor of Biblical Studies at Lenoir Hhyne College, Hickory, N.C., sent a copy of the critique to members of the college choir who are touring Europe this summer. Ho attached a memorandum reading: "You will bear in mind that, at the direction of the elected leaders of the delightful country which you will be visiting, no more than 25 years ago six million Jews plus brothers of Christ according to the flesh — were systematically slaughtered. Remembering this, you will want to ask yourself whether passion plays, such as

Oberammergau, and all that was said and preached about Jews • crucifying Christ arid bearing the guilt of his death upon their heads, did not contribute toward that tragedy."
Brooklyn Synagogue Damaged by Fire New York fJTA)—A Brooklyn synagogue. Congregation Kesser Torab, was nearly destroyed by fire early last week. A spokesman for the Fire Department said the blaze was not of suspicious origin despite earlier reports at the scene referring to a "heavy smell of gasoline." The two-alarm fire, which began shortly after midnight, was brought under control some 43 minutes later. Damage due to the fire included charring of prayer books. Officials of the congregation could not bo reached for immediate comment. On July 20, the Crown Heights J e w i s h Community Council in Brooklyn, and a nearby two-family residence, was firebombed. The interior of the Council—a storefront operation—was heavily damaged.

RECALL TO U F E By Anita Llbinaa Lebeson Thomas Yoseloff This book tells the story of Jewish women in America, njany of them forgotten, who helped shape their times along with, the great ones whose names resound in history. All have one trait in common— they were the custodians of a precious way of life. Though some of these women have been silent and anonymous, they dispensed hospitality as Jews have always been taught to do, as did that n a m e l e s s Shunammite who served the prophet EUsha— strong, fearless, articulate Jewish women'who won renown through their genius and compassion and Inner vision. There is Rebecca Gratz, a beautiful, gentle girl who rejected an alien m a r r i a g e ; Emma Lazarus and her poems that commemorate the- victims of persecution; Penina Molse, who sang of faith and Immortality; Lillian Wald, who nursed the sick amid raging epidemics; Henrietta Szold, founder of Hadassah; Mathilde Schechter, Jessie Samptcr, Louise Waterman Wise, Tamar de Sola Pool, Anna Rosenberg, Golda Melr (yes, she too is of America), and countless others. A' long list, greatly to be cherished. Readers of RECALL TO LIFE will agree that the story of these women is a record of commitment, a record o£ women who battled the sweatshops, volunteered for the innumerable calls on time and effort in schools for immigrants, playschools for children, and

Washington (JTA) - Ambassador Gunnar V. Jarring's capabilities as a Middle East peacemaker were questioned by Sen. Jacob K. Javits. Tbe New York Republican, a ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said ho was "realistic" over chances for peace in the Mideast now that negotiations ' are to be initiated under Dr. Jarring's auspices. He added, "Jarring's history doesn't Indicate that he has that decisive charisma that Is settlement-producing." Seo. Javits did not refer specifically to the tenure of the ceasefire when he said that there was the possibility of establishing an international police force in the Sinai "with many components," including t h e two superpowers, the United , States and Soviet Russia. Mr. Javits said such a plan has been discussed. He said it was necessary to have^a force "with some muscle" which "will not disappear when Nasser says,,'Go.'" Ha referred to tho withdrawal of UN peace force by Secretary General Thant at the request . of President Nasser, in May ~ 1967. Sen. Javits criticized "Mr. Thant and others who flee at the first breath." He said however, that he believed the new cease-fire was a good faith effort.

Presidents Visit Greek Consulate To Tell Concern New York (JTA)-A delegation of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations has called on the Greek Consulate here to express its deep concern over the projected release of Arab terrorists duly convicted of murder in Greek courts. The "delegation pointed out that- the promise made by •Greek authorities under duress when the terrorists held guns against them has no "moral or pragmatic" calidity. For the Greek government to let convicted murderers free is to encourage further acts of terrorism not only in Greece but against the safety of international air travel in general the Conference asserted. The delegation pointed out to the Consulate that Americans of many different persuasions wmild feel that the Greek government had needlesly paid a heavy mpral ransom if the terrorists were permitted to go free and continue their warfare against innocent civilians. The Greek government promised to release the Arab prisoners after six Arab terrorists seized an Olympic airliner alst month, .held its crew and a Red' Cross representative as hostages and ordered them to fly the airliner to Egypt.

What this Israelis Think
By Lisa Shapiro I'd like to Introduce myself. I'm lisa Shapiro, a substitute Mickey Gerelick for the two weeks tfcat she is on vaction. I am newly graduated from Northwestern University (read last week's Sidelines for further details) and eager to take on the editorship of the Jewish P i Before Mickey left for her holiday 1 vowed to her that I would do nothing to shake up the c o m m u n i t y , especially through her Sidelines column. . She answered me by saying, ''Go ahead, shake up the community—so long &s you just do it in an editorial!" So now I feel an obligation. I thought of all kinds of things to write about, my views on which tend to shake up my immediate family, let alone an e n t i r e community—the War, pollution, marijuana, the Nixon administration, mixed marriage. But most of my thoughts on these things are better argued than written. So I decided to write a fable: • • * Once upon a time a little girl was" born into a lovely middle class family that lived in a lovely middle-of-the-country town. She was raised with puppies and ballet lessons and swimming pool memberships and contact lenses and fluoride toothpaste to prevent decay. But most Important, this little girl was taught to think and to observe, to ask questions and argue answers if she disagreed, to love, to be tolerant but not tolerate, to open her eyes and her heart and her mind. The little girl learned her lessons pretty well. She went to school and got good grades because she didn't want to disappoint her parents or herself. She knew her parents respected- her opinions, and through her rose-colored glasses (this Was before she was old enough, to have contact lenses) she thought that EVERYBODY respected EVERYBODY ELSE'S opinions, even if those opinions differed from their own. As the little girl's lessons became more difficult as she grew up, one remained the same. That was her lesson in Democracy. Over and over " again the little girl was told, "America is the best system in history. Your forefathers fought _ t o givft:you_this. system. It is yours." The little girl went to college and her. eyes were opened even wider. Not only^ that, but she was forcef "To "ThTnlr~~ai5out things even more. In the back of her mind, were the words, •'The American system, democracy, Is the best system invented. It is the best in history." But the little girl thought,"
Perhaps this isn't true. Right now the American system has very many good points and many bad. Perhaps there Is an even better system that Just hasn't been thought of yet. After al,l in the year 1142 the people thought they had the best mode of transportation with the hone. They had uo Idea at^alrplane could exist. It just hadn't been invented yet. itfaybe thli Is true with political systems, too. The system may not be called 'Democracy' or any of the 'Isms.' It Just may be something we haven't thought of yet, but we'd better keep workIng for it If we want to solve some problems." Then one day the little girl graduated from college. The world flashed in front of her open eyes. She was overcome with it. She saw poverty and pollution and hate and death— both mental and physical. She saw hypocrisy and racism and abject stupidity among Mgly educated people. She felt as though she were choking with frustration, because all these things were happening in her country. But when she spoke about these things she heard people say, "America; love it or leave It." and "Wear a flag pin and protest the protesters—support YOUR country." She thought, "This is MY country too, but I want to change it. Even though this system may be the best we've invented YET, I think we can come up with a better one. I want to work too, like my fore* fathers did, in the quest for a better one. Am I a revolutionary? I have no desire to burn a building or break a window. I still love animals and children and'funny greeting cards. And my parents. I still cry at sad movies and like to toast marsbmollows black and bate to see anything bleed." The little girl told herself to others and they smiled and said, "Oh, little girl, you're young andtsoon you'll see that the world is so big, there's not a whole, lot you can do. It all looks big now, but when you get a little older, your eyes will see on a much more limited scale." The little girl certainly hopes not.

By CARL ALPEIVF Haifa—It is axiomatic in Is rael that swings in public opin ion are not marked by ex tremes. In the six elections held In the past 22 y e a r s , all the major p a r t i e s held m o r e or less to their standard following, with only relatively slight variations. The results of e v e r y Alpert election w e r e closely predictable. National elections may reveal which political party enjoys public support at any given moment, but they are not always good indicators of public opinion on various individual issues which are often obscured in the flurry of election-time campaigning. We are grateful to the Israel Institute of Applied Social Research for a series of reliable and scientifically based surveys of public opinion. When it is further possible to study changes in public opinion over a period of several years, the value of such surveys becomes even more significant. The Institute conducted one such poll among Jewish urban dwellers in 1962, in 1966 and again in 1969, asking four specific and interesting questions. What these results mean we
leave to the reader to interpret; » most part, we merely the results. The one issue on which there was a clearly defined change In attitude was In reply to the question: "To what extent would you support an aggressive policy by Israel towards the Arab states?" In 1962 tome 42% were strongly or v e r y strongly In favor of a more aggressive policy. By 1968, even before the Six-Day War, but obviously reflecting the growing hostility on the borders, this bad risen to a ringing 63%. la 1969 It remained at 63%. Do you favor the socialist or the capitalist approach to Israel's economic structure? The results are not clearly conclusive. W h e r e a s the 6% of staunch capitalists in 1962 had doubled to 12% in 1969 — the 19% of staunch socialists in 1962 had also risen to 24% by last year. Two thirds of the population refused to adopt extreme measures. However 24% leaned towards capitalism, against 40% who leaned towards socialism. These figures would appear to confirm the approximate voting strength of the two economic points of view as represented by (he political parlies: ronghly 64% to the left Against 36% to the right. Should the areas of activity of the Histadruth in the economic life of the c o u n t r y be re-
Protest Rally Against Soviet Mistreatment Ottawa (JTA)—Two hundred Jewish students from Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa Joined In a quiet one-hour protest this week outside the Soviet Embassy to protest the maltreatment of Jews in the Soviet Union. Amateur actors portrayed Soviet Jews being beaten for attempting to practice their religion. The protest was ofganUed by the Action Committee for Soviet Jewry, a Toronto student organization. The protestors had planned to present a petition on behalf of Canadian Jewish students, but no one from the Embassy came to the door. Following the singing of the Israeli and Canadian national anthems, the students burned a Soviet flag. The demonstration ended with a Tisha B'Av

stricted? More than half tho population straddles on the issue. The two extremes show a slight but significant shift. la 1962 a total of 25% favored restriction.

And finally: In your opinion, should the Government of Israel see to it that public communal activity should be conducted according to Jewish tradition? The 23% in favor in 1962 roso to 26% In 1969.

It would appear that many wbo favor traditional orthodoxy do not always vote for the religious parlies. The strong secular trend in the population is shown by the 46%. who voted flatly against making public religious observance a function of Oie Government. For w h a t e v e r it may ba worth, I add that in the seven year period covered by theso comparative surveys, the population of the country grew by an immigration of close to 250,000.

But while the Levys could not and do not depend on Israeli patronage of their Israeli dishes alone, they nevertheless cater to their Israeli customers, as much for sentimental as business reasons. The panels in the restaurant sections are lined with Israeli posters and.the intercom music features Israeli melodies.
