Omaha—A goal of $2,000,000, the highest goal In the history of the Omaha Jewish community, has been adopted for the 1971 Jewish PhilanthropiesIsrael Emergency Campaign. Elmer Gross, president of the Omaha Jewish Federation, announced the Omaha goal noting that the national UJA goal of $400 million is nearly double that of the 1970 campaign. "Omaha has been asked, along with every other community across the nation, to pledge full support to the 1971 campaign," Mr. Gross said. "To reach our goal will require increased efforts and sacrificial giving from all of us. If Israel is to survive, we must make the sacrifice. ' "This is a critical year for
Israel and the Jewish people," Mr. Gross continued, "The leaders of the 1971 campaign will be assuming a grave responsibility, For this reason we have asked Morley Zipursky, the 1970 campaign chairman, to serve again as chairman for the current campaign. Morley demonstrated last year his commitment to the campaign, and his ability to get the job done." Mr. Gross said. "I am confident.that Morley's dedication and tireless efforts will again result in a( successful campaign for our community. I-am grateful to Morley for assuming this tremendous responsibility again this year."

A Message From fhe Chairman
OMAHA) NEB., FKI., FICB. 4, 1971
Our Moment inHistory In 1971 Israel will enter into an era of grave danger or an era of possible peace. While we pray for future peace, we recognize the overwhelming needs of the present. Safety is bought at a staggering price to Israel. Her own citizens pay for that security, At the same time, never in its twenty-two years of independence.has Israel closed its doors to any Jew seeking home and haven. The cost of the safety and resettlement of those Jewish refugees from the iron c u r t a i n and Arab countries must be met by the Jews of the free world. The Omaha, Jewish community belongs to t h a t greater community of responsible a n d responsive Jews of the free world paying the price of human needs. Omaha's share of the bill „ I in 1971 is two million dol- < \ Morley Zipursky lars. Two million dollars, while almost double our 1970 campaign record, is a fair and equitable share for our community to raise. We will need to mobilize a maximum effort to meet our }, goal.

Hadassah Hospital Experiments Probe Cancer Detection Jerusalem (JTA) — Israeli scientists at the HadassahHebrew University Hospital c a n c e r research laboratory have reported the development of a simple process that may be able to detect cancer at. an earlier stage than any other known tests. Scientists here and abroad who have studied the findings published in the current issue of the Israel Journal of Medical Sciences, consider the discovery to be of great practical and theoretical importance.' But they caution that the process must undergo exhaustive testing on a much wider scale than is possible in Israel be-, fore its eficacy as an early cancer detector is established. The development' and results of preliminary testing of ' the process on 520 -patients at Hadassah Hospital were re' ported by Dr. Chloe Tal, a senior lecturer at the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Center. Mrs. Tal told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that the process stemmed from a theory she developed while working in the Rockefeller Institute in New York in 1952.

Jerusalem (JTA)—The Government decided to withhold approval (or commercial advertising on television for the time being. The Government acted in accordance with a recommendation by the plenary council of the Israel Broadcasting Authority. : The Authority has the power to authorize tv commercials but' decided not to exercise it in view of the far-reaching affects such a move was likely to have on the national'-economy. The principal objection to commercial tv stems from the fear that it would stimulate private consumption at a time when the Government is battling inflation.

^Editorial Meeting the Challenge In Minneapolis last week Dr. Aryeh Nesher, Qolda Meir's personal representative in the United States spoke to 66 contributors to the Minneapolis UJA campaign. Dr. Nesher said, "1971 is Israel's year to be or not to be. In 1967 your money helped, but it didn't win the war. In 1971 with the Soviet Union in the picture its a different story. You are the major partners in this one. If you see us through to the end, we'll win; if not we lose. Our survival is in your hands." The 66 contributors in Minneapolis responded to Dr. Nesher's plea with contributions totaling $1,227,000. In some cases increases in personal gifts were five times as much as they had been in 1970. It was a thrilling moment in Minneapolis as man after man stood up to make his commitment to Jewish survival. * * * In Omaha this week, a campaign goal of $2,000,000 was announced in the same fight for Jewish survival. It will take the commitment of every,man, woman and child in our community to reach that goal. Do we have that kind of commitment? Two weeks ago a joint meeting was held for the boards of Omaha's three major synagogues. The group met to consider a proposal, aaopted by synagogues in other communities, making contributions to the United Jewish Appeal a pre-requisite for synagogue membership. The rationale for the proposal was expressed in a resolution adopted recently by the Columbus Board of Rabbis. "The privilege, honor and distinction of being a Jew Is something for which one must pay. With Jewish identity comes Jewish responsibility and every synagogue affiliated Jew, who voluntarily identifies with his people, has a primary responsibility for financial commitment to Jewish survival."

By Mickey Gerelick easy. I have opinions (not necessarily based on facts) about almost everything. And until now, I've had little reservation about expressing my views in this column. Subjects for this column have run the gamut from the ridiculous to the sublime—from inane ramblings about chicken soup, to deeply serious views ' about world problems. • Famous personalities have often been the target of my opinions. It never occurred to me that I was playing with fire when I penned uncomplimentary comments about people like Arthur Godfrey, Richard Rubenstein, B e n n e t t Ccrf,' Spiro Agnew, etc. This week I found out what can happen, and it makes me very nervous. Rabbi Harold Novoseller, head of the Jewish Defense League in Philadelphia, bag instituted a libel suit for 92 million against the Philadel- • pbia Jewish Exponent, the Philadelphia Jewish Federation newspaper. Rabbi' Novoseller charges that he was libeled by a cartoon published in the paper on January 14. I know about libel laws, but somehow I never thought of a libel suit being instituted against a community-owned Jewish newspaper. (There's no reason why such a paper. wouldn't be subject to l i b e l laws—I just never thought about it.) The Philadelphia episode really shook me up. I know the financial condition of the Jewish Press, and budgeting for possible libel suits is out of the question. WJiich means, I guess, that I'll have to start showing some restraint in expressing any views. . There's just so much you can write about chicken soup, and I've run out of ideas.

World News Uriels Divorce Help Asked Tel Aviv (JTA)—A Haifa rabbinical court has applied to Lebanese authorities to facilitate divoice proceedings brought by an Israeli woman against her husband who fled to Lebanon to escape trial for fraud. The case involves David Hador, 27, of Haifa, who disappeared during a trial in which he was charged with obtaining money from a woman under false pretenses. He turned up a Lebanon claiming to be an American but was arrested when his identity was discovered and was sentenced to a month in jail. ' His wife appealed to the rabbinical court to help her obtain a divorce before the Lebanese authorities turn him loose. If he disappears again, his wife's status under Jewish law would be that of an "aguna", a deserted wife. The rabbinical court has asked Lebanese authorities to see to it that Hador signs certain papers in the presence of a Beirut rabbi so that his wife may obtain a divorce valid under Jewish law.

since he first appear on the Far Right scene in the 1950's as an official of Liberty and Property, a small San Francisco-based extremist operation that published "Right," a newsletter featuring anti-Semitic articles and news of antiJewish hate groups around the country. The "Operation Survival" project, the League report said, climaxes nearly ten years of steady growth by Liberty Lobby which has placed it in the front rank of the nation's r a d i c a l right groups. The Lobby's gross income has grown from $35,000 in 1961, to $950,000 in 1970. In the same years, the League notes, tho readership of "Liberty Letter" soared from some 15,000 before the 19<M Presidential election, to its current circulation of 240,000—largest of any Far Right publication. Carto, in his years as the organization's motivating force, has acquired control or influence over a variety of operations' and publications and made them part of Liberty Lobby's activities. Among these operations, the League includes: —Influence-over "American Mercury," once a great name in the magazine world "but now tainted by the 'anti-Zionism' of Carlo and the Lobby." —"Washington O b s e r v e r Newsletter," a monthly "whose anti-Semitism is often not even subtle." —Noontide Press, a California publishing operation "which turns out racist and anti-Semitic books." —Friends of Rhodesian Independence "which supports the segregationist regime in Rhodesia." ^ —The Government Education Foundation, which owns the Lobby headquarters and for which Carto serves as chairman and treasurer.
liberty Lobby, a Washington-based radical right organization, has begun a fund raising campaign to finance a secret long-ra'nge plan for a right-wing military dictatorship in the United States, the'Anti-Defamation League of B'nal B'rith has disclosed. The Lobby was characterized as "a rightist political pressure group with broad membership . and support" which succeeded in raising large sums of money for national election campaigns in 1968 and 1970. Part of its plan, according to the league, is "to seek out 'friends' who can be counted on in the top ranks of the military services." Benjamin B. Epslein, national director of the ADL, declared that the Liberty Lobby plan was described at a top security meeting November 22 in a rented suite of New York's posh Barclay Hotel. He said "50 persons of apparent affluence" attended. Labelled "Operational Survival," the plan was Spelled but by Robert M. Bartcli, Liberty Lobby's special project coordinator. He told the selected guests, Mr. Epstein said, that Liberty Lobby is already in the process of surveying the Army to develop "friends." Bartell contended that a rightwing military dictatorship Is necessary to save the country from "takeover"- by Commnist and radical left elements. Mr. Epstein said that the New York meeting was one of 14 such gatherings scheduled around the country by Liberty Lobby. Mr. Epstein went on to say that the AntiDefamation League has kept close watch on Liberty Lobby since its founding in 1951 by Willis A. Carlo, described by the League as "a known anti-Semite." According to Mr. Epstein, Carto has been associated with anti-semitism
Toronto - (JTA)—Jewish students and students claiming no religion were found to be the most frequent users of mari' juana and LSD in a 1970 re. search study of students in grades seven to 13 at Toronto - schools made by the Addiction Research Foundation. The study was a re-survey of a similar one made in 1963 and dealt with students using alcohol, marijuana, opiates, LSD and other hallucinogens. The percentage of all students using marijuana in 1970 was given as 18.3 perecnt compared with 6.7 percent in 1968. The 1970 study covered 8,865 students, by use of a questionnaire administered In 399 classes in 94 schools by "SO interviewers. Permission of parents and anonymity of the subjects was the basis for the research. According to the study, religion was found to be "one of several interacting factors but not a primary determinant" in. use of alcohol and drugs. For '«live drugs—glue, opiates, speed, stimulants and tranquilizers— little relationship was found between student use and the religion of the family of the student, the survey indicated. ~ The researchers reported that

"Jewish students and those reporting no religion were most likely to use alcohol while those who claimed 'other' as their religion were least likely to use alcohol. The same general relationship also held for tobacco, marijuana and barbiluates," according to the report. The researchers declared that "reasonably consistent" with findings in the 1968 study "was the fact that 27.5 percent of the Jewish students and 18.9 percent of those who claimed no religion reported using marijuana, compared to 13.9 percent Protestants and 3.5 p e r c e n t Catholics. For LSD and other likely to use these drugs were those with no religion. Again, Jewish students and those with no religion were found to be most frequent users of LSD." NEW YORK COMPANY OF 50

—American for National Security, an antiIsrael, "anti-Zionist" group concerned with military and "security" issues. —Save Our Schools, a recently launched project to combat alleged sinister influences in American education. ' —National Tax Action, Inc., which recently marged with Liberty Lobby bringing Bartell into the Lobby's executive family. —National Youth Alliance, formed in 1969 from the remnants of Youth For Wallace. —United Congressional Appeal, which raises money to back /"conservative" candidates and spent some $90,000 in 19C8 and about $65,000 in 1970 for that purpose. The Liberty Lobby complex, Mr. Epstein warned, presents a potentially dangerous threat to American democracy because "the average citizen may not see through the legitimate-sounding names of its groups and titles of some of Its leadership." In its well-organized attempts to "coordinate grass-roots pressure/' the ADL official said, the Lobby leans heavily on scare propaganda tactics. It seeks to create an aura of rcspectU bility. he continued, with its Washington address, its reports of Lobby testimony before Congressional committees, its contact,with members of Congress and its publicized monitoring of Congressional votes. "In reality," Mr. Epstein declared, "Liberty Lobby is nothing more than an extremist antidemocratic apparatus. Its 'Operation Survival' plan for a rightist military dictatorship reads like an ujillkely movie plot." How far it will get, Mr. Epstein concluded, "depends on the alertness of the American public."
