Peace Talks Stalemate
New York (JTA)—A major breakthrough in the area vof legislation affecting Jewish interests has been announced by Governor Nelson Rockefeller. The Governor r e i t e r a t e d a commitment to draft legislation to ban d i s c r i m i n a t i o n against Sabbath-o b s e r v i n g Jews in private employ. Since 1967, a New York State law sponsored by Governor Roockefellcr has banned discrimination against any state or city government employee on the grounds of his observing a Sabbath other than Sunday, or because of his necessity to absent himself from work on certain religious holidays. In private industry, Jewish Sabbath observers have in the last two years found protection when several states adopted the guidelines of the Federal. Equal Employment Opportunities Commission,: which by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, banned any employer from refusing a job to a,Sabbath observer, un-
less the employer could prove that he would suffer "undue hardship." The National Jewish Commission on Law and Public Affairs (COLPA) has successfully spearheaded efforts in New York State and ' other areas for the fulfillment of these guidelines. In recent months, however,- " several legal decisions rendered by the courts raised serious doubts about the continued validity of these administrative regulations. The commitment by Governor Rockefeller to resolve the problem in the Legislature in 1971, in the event that the negative court decisions, are not satisfactorily, resolved by that date, was born out of a conference, between Rabbi Moshe Sherer and the Governor d u r i n g which the Agudath Israel'leader brought to his attention the new necessity of broadening the existing; laws which protect government employees, to include jobhold- ers in the private sector.,,.., '

military courts find criminals guilty of capital crimes, the death sentence should be passed —but actual execution indefinitely deferred. Circumstances could well dictate when the sentence should be carried out —if ever. It is felt this would serve as an effective deterrent on two levels. First of all, it would give cause for thought to many Arabs who today engage in terrorism knowing that if caught their worst fate will be to be well fed and warmly housed in an Israel jail. Second it would remove the sting from any kidnappers' or hi-jackers' threat, since it would be the terrorists themselves whose finger would. trigger off executions which had already been legally confirmed against their own men.

Brooklyn, N. Y. (JTA)-Students at Brooklyn College of the Cily University of New York (CUNY) and the State University of New York at Albany (SUNYA) have erected sukkahs on their c a m p u s grounds in celebration of the Festival of the Tabernacles. Two sukkahs were built on the Brooklyn College campus in order to accommodate the Jewish students, a large percentage of them Orthodox. The sukkahs were open to members of the student body, faculty and administration to experience the traditional blessing of the-iulav and essrog and - participate in a sukkoth program. The s u k k a h of tiie SUNYA campus was built by members of the B'nai B'rith Hillel Society. The students here held a Sukkoth service and many slept in the sukkah. Even before the holidays began, the sukkah became a popular place for students to visit and meditate. "Hip" students, who normall y evidence little interest in religion, were highly intrigued by the Jewish symbol that cm.bodies many of their ideals. The sukkah commemorates the 40 year period of wandering in the desert by the Israelites af: ter the Exodus from Egypt.

Reform Rabbi UrgesUN Admission of Red China Rabbi Roland B. Gittelsohn • ._of Temple Israel, Boston, president of the Central Conference of American R a b b i s , called upon the Nixon Administration to support the admission of Communist China to the United Nations at the current session of the General Assembly. In a communication to both President Nixon and Secretary of State Rogers, the head of the 1100-member Reform Rabbinic Association said, "the time has come for our nation to cease its game of pretence. We can never seriously progress on the road towards peace by denying /the existence of the Chinese Peoples' Republic." * Rabbi Gittelsohn pointed out that our own government mantains relations with numerous C o m m u n i s t and totalitarian states, "some of whose policies* .POLITICAL ADVKRTLSEMENT
are contrary to our own democratic traditions." The CCAR has repeatedly called for Communist China's admission to the UN and the American government's official establishment of diplomatic relations. A 1966 resolution stated in part "we recognize that the isolation of m a i n l a n d China, whether self-imposed or enforced from outside, bodes ill for the future of mankind . . . We recommend our national Administration (Johnson) for the efforts it has made to foster that change in economic and c u l t u r a l relations that may pierce the barrier separating us from the* Chinese People's Republic and may persuade mainland China to accept its place in the community of nations should a tender of membership be made to it."

New York (JTA)—Two Jewish emigres from Soviet Latvia have written to Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller, Mayor John V. Lindsay, the Board of Education and the New York Times to protest anti-Semitic "harrassment" of their yqunger son by his sixth-grade black schoolmates. "For participating actively •in class," Mitchell and Mia Vickers wrote, "he has been called 'Jewish faggot' and shot at with paper clips by his black classmates." The racially "balanced" c l a s s e s at Public School 84 in upper Manhattan, they continued, "are disrupted by the 'under privileged,' who, not being able to read, not only bear no burden of knowledge, but clearly have no desire to acquire any." The Vickers boy has "re-
Report of New Soviet Show Trial London (JTA)—The Sunday Observer reports that Soviet authorities are preparing a show trial of Russian citizens, mostly Jewish—the biggest in the Soviet Union since 1968, when 17 intellectuals were accused of dissension after the invasion of Czechoslovakia. The trial, likely to be held in Leningrad next month, is connected with the arrest of 30 Soviet citizens alleged to have tried to hijack a • Soviet plane at Leningrad airport to fly to Finland last June. It is believed that the KGB, the Soviet secret police, had a hand in the alleged hijackings, the paper said. Realizing how desperate many Soviet Jews had become to leave the country, and seeing mounting applications for exit permits, the secret police are thought to have planted an agent provocateur — a Jew named B. Dymschits—and provoked the hijacking. The purpose of the trial appears to be to terrorize Jews and curb their desires to emigrate. It Is feared that Jews will be tried on charges of attempting to seize state property, an offense pun-' ishable by death.
fused to go (to class) any longer." His parents declared: "We are tiredof being silent, It was not our intention to escape Russian chauvinism only to be sacrificed to black racism. Our younger son has been harassed and called 'dirty Jew.' Two of his teeth were broken. He still has seven years of study in primary and secondary school. We do not want him crippled physically or mentally during those years and we want him to gain knowledge at the same time." The couple concluded their letter by asserting that "It is time to restore order in the classrooms and to give every child the right arid the chance to study according to his ability." , In a telephone, interview with the JTA, Mr. Vickers said his younger son, who has been attending classes only a day or two a week, was assailed again by black classmates, the day before his parents' letter appeared in the Times. Mr. Vickers emphasized that he was not accusing all b l a c k s of anti-
Semitism, only those in his son's classes. He said he recognized that blacks "have the right to exist just as we have the right to exist," but that because of black youngsters' hostility toward his son, "There is no order in the class, there is no learning." Mr. Vickers, a commercial artist who older son is a star student and athlete at the Cooper Union, said he and his family left Riga and the Soviet Union on Aug. 6, 1965, after having had their emigration requests r e j e c t e d for nine years. On the suggestion of a Jew who had managed to gain emigration p e r m i s s i o n , the Vickerses wrote to the Soviet and Latvian authorities every week for eight months. The authorities finally decided, he said, that they were too troublesome to put" up with, and let them leave. The f a m i l y went to Israel and thence to the United States.

PRESS

. A few weeks ago an editorial In the Jewish Press explained our position in printing news of mixed marriages. In short, we said that while we were obliged to print these news items, in no way did the printing indicate our approval of the events. It was a sound position for a . Jewish newspaper to take, and should have created no controversy—but it did. Apparently, there is some misunderstanding as to what constitutes a "mixed marriage." By our definition, a mixed marriage is one between a Jew and non-Jew, where there has been no conversion. If the nonJew converts to Judaism before the marriage; then it is a marriage between two Jews, and thus not the mixed marriage referred to in our editorial. Much could be said about the reasons for conversions. For some, perhaps, a conversion before marriage is simply a way to placate parents, with little religious commitment involved. So be it. Too many of us, however, seem to believe that this is the only reason for conversion to Judaism, and this certainly is not the case. The September-October issue of the national Pioneer Woman Magazine includes a m o v i n g article, "Why I Became a Jew." The article was written by a pretty 23 year old woman, Yael Crawford, who serves as head teacher at the Agnon Jewish Day School in Cleveland, Ohio. The following excerpts are from her article.

found I needed and wanted religious rituals with complex and meaningful symbols. Also lacking was a sense of community — of belonging to a religious group that felt strong ties to one another because of common religious tenets and practices. During that Unfulfilled and groping period of my life, I was fortunate to have Jewish friends who really enjoyed being Jewish. By enjoying being Jewish, I mean that their homes were full of Yiddishkeit. The holidays and Shabbat were celebrated meaningfully and with love. In essence, what I saw of Jewish observance in the home led to the final jelling of an emotional attachment to Judaism. Judaism embodied a comprehensive way1 of life that no other religion did.

what God was and what He wanted from me. What I had learned in Sunday school just seemed to confuse the issue. My religious questioning was met by pronouncements by my minister that the true Christian can believe what he does not understand. The test of the true Christian is that he can accept what seems very unreasonable because lus faith is so strong. If I had tried to remain within the Christian church, I would have had to repress my reason in the name of faith. This I could not do. I was faced with ultimately having no religion or finding one that allowed reason and emotion to exist compatibly.
