ue Boards Adopt Resolution Omaha—Following several weeks of meetings and discussions, the Boards of the three major Omaha Synagogue Congregations have adopted a Resolution concerning the annual Jewish Philanthropies Campaign. The original proposal considered by the congregations would have made contributions to the Philanthropies Campaign mandatory for all synagogue members. The final wording of tha Besolutlon adopted by the congregations does not carry the mandatory requirement. Writing in the Beth El Synagogue Bulletin, Babbi Mycr S. Kripke said, "Speaking for myself, I should have wanted a more rigorous resolution, making it a requirement for Synagogue membership that a contribution to the Jewish Philanthropies, fully reflecting the economic capacity of each individual or family member, he pledged and paid each year." Rabbi Kripke continues, "The resolution, therefore, in terms of practical financial results, has no clout except for one telling quali-
fication: that people contribute in accordance with their financial ability. It is here that shockingly large numbers of American Jews and Omaha Jews take advantage of their brothers of the House of Israel. "All too many of our people display living standards and giving standards of two quite different worlds. It is they who must read this resolution carefully when it is published and note the clause that accuses them," said Rabbi Kripke. Full text of the adopted Resolution follows: RESOLUTION WE, the Adminif'-'ative boards of Beth El Synagogue, Beth ; D0S ' "'jmple Israel Synago 89 '<PM 'ujooutT ned with the welfare "?S a OOSI a n d being cognizant c .t? ^?OJOOQ tel's welfare hinges tl f °fJO)sjH O jc, s -qg., and secure in the beliei u »6c«n.»v—'
ance, do hereby firmly resolve as follows: 1. That every Jewish member of our community translate his concern for the safety of the people of the State of Israel, and give concrete expression to the insoluable links which bind our destinies to each other by making an annual contribution, to Israel's emergency needs commensurate with his abilities. 2. That each synagogue of the City of Omaha create a special committee to contact all non-contributors and to bring to bear whatever form of moral and communal pressures that would lead to the goal of 100 per cent giving in our community. - 3. That this effort be accompanied by an ongoing and concentrated program of education and indoctrination to make every Jew cognizant of his serious responsibility to K'lal Yisrael, to the fate and destiny of our people.

Reagan Dismisses Jewish Chaplains? Black leader Charges Anti-Semitism OAKLAND, Calif. (JTA)—Governor Ronald Reagan's dismissal of three Jewish chaplains, the entire complement ministering on a full time basis to patients of that faith in California's 14 mental hospitals, is a "blatant act of anti-Semitism.'* That was the statement of Percy Moore, executive director of Oakland's anti-poverty program and the president of the California Community Action Program Directors Association, a state-wide organization composed of. anti-poverty leaders. Moore, who is black, said that the elimination of all three Jewish chaplains, effective July 1, while some 33 Catholic and Protestant chaplains are retained for full-time work in the mental hospitals, is "nothing more than a blatant act of anti-Semitism that is right in line with other recent acts of the Governor that-discriminate against the poor and tha sick, and with special impact of those of tha minority groups." ._, ,
The other acts Moore referred to were the) Governor's veto last week of funding for the Oakland anti-poverty program, which last year benefitted some 41,000 of the city's poor, and his veto in January of the California Rural Legal Assistance program. "In both cases,^ Moore said, "Governor Reagan's action was of a purely discriminatory effect since the may jority of beneficiaries of both programs werp tho minority groups of the Black, Chicano. Oriental and American Indian. And w h a t makes it even worse is that the Governors action was taken for motives as cold as his excuse of "economy" for removal of the Jew* ish chaplains." Moore concluded: "Such arrogant actions are typical of the thinking that generates tha anti-Semitism which Reagan has now evidenced by his callous disregard for gious needs of those of the J e j ' suffering in the state's .,-r.,

Bush, who was given the UN ambassadorship after he lost a Senate race urged on him by President Nixon, added: "I have a close relationship with the President. 1 think I have his confidence." The newcomer, who divested himself of his presidency, chairmanship and shares in Zapata Off-Shore Co. of Midland, Tex., before running for Congress in 1966, gave a carefully worded reply to a question about Mideast oil by the correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.

Department Store Bans Soviet Products SAN FRANCISCO (JTA)-In conjunction with the Brussels conference on Soviet Jewry, the City of Paris, one of the leading department stores here has agreed to remove all Soviet products from its shelves in response to a request from Soviet Jewry Action Group. Steve Sloan, a San Francisco stockbroker and spokesman for the group, stated, "We thank Mr. Haskell Titchcll, who represented City of Paris, for his understanding, and for demonstrating humanitarian concern for the oppressed Jews of Soviet Russia. We don't enjoy picketing our fellow Americans, but what would we think if a store was selling German goods in 1942?" He added that Action Group intends to stop totally the sale of Russian goods in San Francisco. Similar economic boycotts are under way according to the group, in other cities throughout the world in answer to the refusal of the Soviet government to grant free emigration to its three million Jews.

The top echelons of American labor warned that Soviet intervention in the Middle East was against the American policy of peace and freedom and that "the AFL-CIO reaffirms its wholehearted solidarity with Israel and its labor federation, Ilistadfut. We urge our government to give Israel full diplomatic, political and economic support in her efforts to secure a just peace settlement."

Youth to Youth: A Happy Ending , When the distraught parents of teen-age Israeli, Yuval Rosen'thal, learned he would have to be sent to the U.S. to undergo openheart surgery, they desperately appealed for financial help. Their plea immediately triggered a countrywide campaign by Noar Lenoar ("Youth to. Youth"), Israel affiliate of the B'nai B'rith Youth Organlzaiion. Boys and girls of the 4,500member Israeli organization turned out in strength for street corner collections in Tel. Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and other c e n t e r s , dramatized their effort with a fund-raising march and sponsored fund' raising concerts and entertainments. News of the undertaking over the air and in the daily press stirred the hearts of Israelis and drew additional contributions. One overseas newspaper reader, an Israeli temporarily stationed in Columbus,. Ohio, got the local B'nai B'rith Youth- 6 r g a n i z ation chapter to help. Later, an Upper New York State BBYO regional convention in Rochester, N.Y., site of M a y o Clinic . where Yuval came to have his operation, generously added to the kitty. / By the time the cash collected in America — "including a sum turned over by BBYO's district office in New York City — reached Israel, Yuval, now fully recovered from his,, ordeal, was reported "homo and happy." _ iti< The?surplus will be deposited in' a special fund to meet similar health contingencies in the future/ - • •

How Much Is Enough? We call attention to the special brochure which has been inserted in the Jewish Press this week. We urge all readers to give it careful study. All of us have seen advertising brochures inserted in newspapers before, but this one is different. Most advertising brochures are inserted with the expectation of-selling a small'percentage of the readers. For most products, a small percentage of response is enough to keep the product on the market. But in this case, the product to be sold is the future of the Jewish People, and nothing less than total response by the readers will keep the product on the market. Everyone must buy a piece of that future, or there is no future. Mrs. Morris Fellman and Millard Rosenberg spent many hours in the creation of this exceptional brochure. In few words and dramatic pictures it tells the whole story of the Omaha Jewish Philanthropies Campaign. The product Is carefully described, but unlike other advertising brochures, the price is missing. Each buyer must determine his own share of the cost of buylflg a future for the Jewish People. "If you care enough, you'll give enough" is the slogan, but how much is enough? Enougli is twice as much as you think you can Afford. Enough Is your total dollar commitment to answer the needs described in this brochure. Enough is whatever it will take for you to live with your conscience should Israel lose the struggle for survival because of lack of funds. ' If you care enough, you will give enough, but only you can determine How much you care. When the Philanthropies worker calls on you for your pledge remember that unless everyone responds this year, the product may be forced off the market. The future of the Jewish People is for sale. How much wl(I you buy?
A Step in the Right Direction We commend the action taken by the boards of Omaha's three major synagogues in adopting their first "Philanthropies Resolution." This is a special campaign year, and the adopted Resolution should serve to alert all synagogue members to their special responsibilities. While we share the opinions expressed by Rabbi Kripke in the front page story this week, we see the action by the synagogue boards as a step in the right direction. We wish the wording of the Resolution had been stronger, but we commend our synagogue leaders for taking this first step.
Teen Thoughts By MIKE RIPS I want to extend my thanks to Saragail Katzman for her comments on my editorial. I only lament that more of the youth In our community have not taken the initiative in submitting their thoughts. The editorial spotlight this week falls upon the Men's and Women's Organizations which function either as subsidiary
to, or independent of, the synagogues in our community. Included in this illustrious group would be the various Sisterhoods, B'nai B'rith groups, Men's Clubs and all the many organizations for women. Without being evasive about the matter, I w o u l d like to question these groups as to the extent that they have involved themselves in the aspects of urban problems, the Black crises, Indian affairs; pending ecocatastrophes and all the other social problems that face our world.

By CARL ALPERT Haifa—Last year over 3,000 book titles were published in Israel, compared to some 30,000 in the United States. This means that in proportion to population I s r a e l published seven times more books than the U.S. Circulation of each title is another matter. Anything which sells over 10,000 copies is considered a best-seller in Israel. As a matter of fact about 250 of last year's books were printed in less than 500 copies. The reading habits of the Israeli are interesting. The Bible continues to be No. 1 best seller, and publishers sometimes cover losses on other books from the income of their standard Bible editions. 91 per cent of all Jewish homes have at least one Bible. In the period since the SixDay War t h e r e has been a change in the type of books in demand. Sale of books on crime, violence, sex and passion has declined. There has been an increase in sale of books on morality, ethics, idealism. The classics, historical novels and history are in great demand. The intellectual curiosity of the p e o p l e has stimulated a desire for books about the Arabs and history and geography of the new areas. Of concern to the hardpressed Israel publisher is the competition from foreign reading matter. There is no customs duty on imported books, and last year about $4,000,000 was spent on such imports. Foreign periodicals also have a following here. By far the best seller is Time magazine with a weekly circulation of about 20,000 copies. There is even an occasional special Israel' edition, with full page ads directed at the Israel reader. Paperbacks enjoy the largest sale, of course. A soft-covered book printed in I s r a e l costs no more than about a pack of American cigarettes, and translations of overseas classics enjoy a good sale. The Am Oved publishing house Issues a "Popular library" series which has been most successful. Its Hebrew edition of Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea," for example, sold 65,000 copies. A Ijj,rge number of these was for school use. "Zorba the Greek" sold 50,000. Am Oved has a standing subscription list of 18,000 for every title which it issues. .

Sidelines By Mickey Gerelick I do a lot of reading, riiostly in Jewish newspapers, and every now and then I come up with some real choice items which I try to relate to my personal life (often to the distress of the rest of my family.) For instance, when the population explosion began making the headlines and families were urged to.llmit themselvesto two children; I expressed real guilt feelings about being 1 a polluter with three kids. Our number three child was very nervous about it, in spite of our assurance that the limit on family size was not retroactive. There's no way of returning a 17 year old daughter, even if. you wanted to, which we didn't because in spite of what she might be doing to the environment, we like having her around. Anyhow, I read an-item4n ihe Jerusalem Post a few' weeks ago with some marvelous statistics that I knew I would be able to use. Did you know that the more you pray, the'' less likely you are to have a heart attack? These, facts were revealed by the Israel Ischemic Heart Disease Project^.which analyzed various factors which seem to indicate the ways of life which reduce the incidence of heart attacks. Some 10,059 individuals were covered in the survey, representing all branches of Judaism in Israel. The question was asked: Do you go to the synagogue dally?
ITS A FACT One-quarter of Israel JewTsn famlies668.000 famlliesHveln stum conditions.
Do you go sometimes? Do you go rarely? „ Among those who went daily there were 29 heart attacks per 1,000 persons over a five year period. The " s o m e t i m e s " group had 37 heart attacks per 1,000. Those who prayed rarely were in real trouble with 56 heart attacks per 1,000 during the same 5-year period. What a peachy set of statistics to spring on an unsuspecting husband the next time he tried to cop out on going to services. When the time, came at our house, I let my husband know the risk to his heart if he decided to skip services. Ho wasn't impressed. I didn't argue, because I had another news item up my sleeve. "As long as we're going to be home this evening we can work on a problem about the size of our family," I said. "Ecology be damned, I won't give up my daughter," he said. I assured him it wasn't the ecology kick this time. To the contrary; I had Just read an article In. the Jewish Post and Opinion In which an Albany rabbi was advocating four children for every Jewish family. According to Rabbi Alvln S. Roth, Jews might disappear. from the globe unless we startcd reproducing In g r e a t e r numbers—at least f o u r children per family. • "So what," said my husband. (The strange green of his face told me he was remembering the days of diapers, bottles and cub scouts.) . "So," I answered, "We have a responsibility not to let our people disappear. We have to do our share, and as long as we're home tonight..." .: "Let's go to services," he said. Moral: Stories in J e w i s h Newspapers can improve synagogue attendance.

Tel Aviv String Quartet Joslyn Concert Sunday
Rehovot (ZINS)—Unless Israel receives 60,000 new Jewish immigrants each year the Arabs will soon outnumber Israel's Jews, said p r o f e s s o r Hans Linder of the Weizmann Institute in a symposium for journalists. In 1948 Israel's Arabs numbered nearly 150,000 but by 1967 had increased to 400,000. "This is a population growth without precedent, m a t c h e d only by the population explosion of Hong Kong," said the Professor. "Not only is the Arab birthrate much higher, but even their mortality rate is lower than that of the Jews," added Professor Linder.

Tel Aviv (ZINS)-The leading Israeli daily "Davar", in an assessment of President Nixon's administration, declares unequivocally that, so far as Israel is concerned, its verdict on the Nixon administration is highly positive. . The paper points out that Richard Nixon was the first U. S. Chief Executive to state that the Arabs, not Israel, have been the aggressors, a view which greatly agitated the Arab world and its supporters. However, writes "Davar", Nixon's support of Israel went far beyond mere declarations. "The United States is giving Israel unprecedented military and economic support. Indeed,, the amount of aid forthcoming is tenfold that which was provided under President Johnson."

A Glance at the Champs It was thought'before the Youth Council "A" basketball, league got under way this year, that the league would bo "nip and tuck" from beginning to end. Well things didn't work out that way because Chaim Weizmann completely dominated league play. They rolled to an 11-0 record with one more game to play and have clinched the championship. Chaim Weizmann's story is not one individual player, but a team effort. For example, the team leader and quarterback was Mr. consistency himself, Rich Bernstein, Rich averaged 17 points a game and had numerous assists while getting his share of rebounds. Steve Neporankk, the league leading scorer, got his points from offensive rebounds and a complete desire to put the ball through the basket. Mark Behnont was the team's experienced ball player as he averaged 17 points a game and could always be counted on for the big play. Alan Greenberg, who just moved to Omaha, was the ball player Weizmann was looking for to round out a complete team. Alan also averaged around 17 points a game and would never hesitate to pass off when one of his teammates were open on a fast break. Larry Ruback rounded out the starting "five" when Brad Greenstone was forced into early retirement with a broken foot. Ruback came on as though he had been playing all year. He gave the team rebounding as well as a good punch. Dave Kutler came into.his own at the end of the season as he proved to be a worthy replacement for any of the starting "five." • Last but not least Chaim Weizmann couldn't have had the. great team they did without the coaching of Jerry Rosen.

HOWEVER, THE BIG NEED THIS YEAR IS IN ISRAELI This year Israel will spend four times as much for defense as in 1967, the year of the Six Day War. This means approximately 90% of each Israeli's personal income tax will be spent for defense. As a result of this tremendous burden on the citizens of Israel, there will be insufficient funds for receiving and integrating an expected 50,000 immigrants, and for carrying on the vital health, education and social welfare programs of those already residing in Israel - humanitarian programs which have been the traditional responsibility of world Jewry. Israel's emergency defense budget means that these are SPECIAL TIMES THAT REQUIRE SPECIAL GIVING!
