Omahans Return from Special UJA Mission Omaha—Mor t i m e r Greenberg, Leonard Goldstein, E. -Robert Newman and Morley Zi pur s k y were among 235 American Jewish leaders participating in a UJA mission lo Israel last week, at the invita. tlon of the Prime Minister. En route to Israel for the 3 day mission, the group stopped an immigrant-reception center in Austria where they visited for several hours with a group of Russiajv-Jews emigrating to Israel. Thirty-one of the Russians then travelled with the mission members from Austria to Israel. The Omalians agreed that the contact with the Russian immigrants was among the most moving parts of the trip. "One could not help but identify with these pepple," said Grcenbcrg. "They were not just statistics; they were real people, fellow Jews who could have been members of our own families." In Israel the group met with

New York (JTA)—The American Jewish Conference on Soviet Jewry has learned of the arrest of three Riga Jews, at least two of whom had been On" a hunger strike at the Office of Registration and V i s a s (OVIR) in" the Latvian capital. According to Richard Maass, chairman of the Conference, early reports indicated that "Yerahmiel Trubcskin (Triskin) and Munia Yechielson had .launched a hunger strike in order to dramatize to^the world the refusal of Soviet authorities to grant-their requests to leave for Israel." The Conference reported that the two were arrested shortly after a' demon- • stration was launched Aug. 22. Together with a third associate,, Menuha Tesel, they were sentenced fifteen days in prison for "hooliganism." Maass also reported that a Riga Jewish family had sent an appeal to the UN Commission on Human Rights but that so far there has been no acknowt edgement by the United Na-tions Human Rights Division In the Secretariat. Gregory Abramovich Gliks'teih, a 40-yearold engineer has requested Che right to leave for Israel for himself, his wife, their- two sons arid parents. Their latest request was refused on July 4 but, according to Maass, Mr. Glikstein is prepared to face the Soviet bureaucracy, o n c e more, and request that permis-, sion be granted for his family to leave and tolive asrJewsin-•

Carter also accused the government of being a "racist, Jim Crow cpuntry." He contended that the state and rabbinate refused to give them equal rights, housing, education or jobs because they were not considered Jewish. 'The first of the group ar-' rived'in 1969 after an unsuccessful attempt to settle in Liberia and were given resident status and flats in Dimona. Others, including Carter, came later and were given tourist visas. He has demanded that they be accepted at once as immigrants, which would entitle them to medical care, housing . and job assistance. Carter declined to say how many of the group were employed. Israeli authorities have estimated their number at about 300. Carter claims there are nearly 1,000 in Israel and 2.5 million in' the U.S. who believe in the precepts of the old Testament,' observe the Sabbath and holidays and. do not cat "unclean food." Israeli rabbinical authorities have questioned their authenticity as Jews but the blacks refuse to undergo' conversion according to Orthodox rites because they say it is unnecessary. The Interior Ministry has refused to grant them citizenship, which, under the Law of Return,' is automatic for Jewish immigrants.

Things You Never :
By Carl Alpert Haifa—If you think thaht a Government Year Book makes dull, stuffy, stodgy reading, you have-never picked up a copy of the Israel Government Year Book. Published in both H e b r e w and English versions, it is a mine of useful, and interesting—and at times startling—information about Israel. For e x a m p l e , I have gleaned the following from a quick riffling t h r o u g h the pages: In the last year reported, the Israel police dealt with Alpert more-than a m i l l i o n complaints and incidents, of which 12,284 were traffic accidents and 2998 were fires. The police also recorded, during that'year, 35,687 articles found, but only 30,301 reports of articles lost! [ The following report stretches the imagination a bit: There were 8102 patients in the 6884 beds of the various psychiatric hospitals of the country. That is oyercrowding. Did you know that the Chief Rabbis are legally competent to permit the taking of a ' second wife • in certain exceptional circum•-•• stances?- Twenty-six such cases were approved last year. ^ ; -Israel radio beams short-wave broadcasts overseas in English, Hungarian, Yiddish, La.dino, Arabic, Persian, French, Roumanian,
Russian and easy Hebrew. -One half the cars of the country park in forbidden areas. It says so in the Year Book.

f What, Are ©yr Goals N@w? '
Along the Lower East Side in my youth, the goal of all the. -adults was' to become a citizen. It was not by any means the sole topic of conversation, but it "was the one'topic about which there was no disagreement, quarrel, or cynicism. We rooted for our fathers to become citizens with a fervor j'"a later generation rooted for <£_Babe Ruth to hit home runs. Most of the immigrants be. came citizens. Goals become more diffuse, but no less ardently pursued. * The men I remember as a boy wanted to join a union andthen they wanted their union to become strong. They wanted to open their own business and when that s u c c e e d e d they wanted to move that business into the open spaces of the Bronx. Young men wanted an education. They" wanted to become engineers,, doctors or certified public accountants. Even more became teachers. They .wanted to make more money and a lot of them did. With their money, they took winter vacations and summers drove Cadillacs. I do not even think keeping up with _ihe Joneses is a goal for the naive any longer. What Now? .To own a Cadillac is no longer a goal, only a disease. I haven't had a friend stop to show off a new car in several years. The affluent society has wiped away goals and purposes. 'Money "success does not turn the kids on. What does f ! I turn! the kids on is another question. Apparently nothing.
That phenomenon may be exactly what I'm talking about. My brother had three girls. He used to say, "This one will marry., a doctor. This -one. a lawyer. And this one a'businessman," And it worked out. But in this goalless society, father says, "I want my daughters to be happy."
Double Trouble Jerusalem—A man whom the rabbis had permitted to have two wives was asked last week by the-women to choose one of them—and divorce the other. . The s t o r y began in an Arab country where Yaacov wed Shoshana 15 years ago. They emigrated to Israel and settled in Haifa, but Shoshana never bore her husband a child. She herself, suggested he take a second wife for the specific purpose of having children, and found him a 20-year-old orphan girl whom they set up in an apartment in a moshav. , A rabbinical court approved t h e arrangement. But as fate would have it, each of the wives said Yaacov spent too much time with the other, .and urged, that he should beNemiired to make a choice between them. The Beth Din, displaying collective Solomonic wisdom, ordered Yaacov to divide his nights between the two with strict impartiality, and this for a six-mpnth trial period. ' '
tional Jewish Welfare Board. The report was preceded by an editor's note that a -reader of the publication-had asserted that, "women's lib" had no chance, in the typical Jewish Center because t h e ' c e n t e r s "have such a large percentage of male directors." The volunteer, who was not .identified in the report, said the experience began when she offered last fall to start a "rap" group at the-center, open to the general public as well as to c e n t e r members, as the hoped-for start of a woman's liberation group at the center. She reported^, that the purpose of the "rap" group was to allow people, to discuss the issues currently espoused by the Women's L i b e r a t i o n movement. Eight weekly sessions were held, each focused on a specific topic such as women and economics, w o m e n and psychology and similar topics. She reported that each session was well attended but that "we were not able to develop continuity." The group failed to achieve the goal of "serving as a base for a larger on-going program at the center." Undaunted, the v o l u n t e e r Undaunted* the volunteer proceeded with plans for a study group in the fall which - she hoped would "supply the structure and continuity n e e d e d . The course had publicity but , there was no significant registration." Evaluating the reasons for the lack of interest, the volunteer cited four key problems. These were that the center was "not known as a place - where people take Intensive courses;" that university extension- credit was'not given , to, participants; that the Women's Liberation p r o g r a m "is essentially a p o l i t i c a l movement while the Jewish Community Center, although sometimes providing a forum for political v i e w s , Is not thought of in political contexts." Nevertheless, she asserted, she still believed that "a course ' and. eventually a program cen' tered around the issues of Women's Liberation'! was a real possibility. .

It Is difficult to know what led the publishers to alter their plans, but ADL has now received assurances from G, P, Putnam,... publishers, that (he statement on the proposed cover has been eliminated. We are grateful to ADL for bringing the problem to our attention;, and we thank all readers who may have taken the time and trouble to write the suggested letters. We .commend tho publishers for the reversal of their plans, and for their assurance that the anti-Semitic statement will not be used in their publicity. Mission Accomplished.
The life of Jesus is so humanized that for once a Biblical-tale (and it doesn't- matter that it's Old Testament or Ne,w Testament)*^ 'no l o n g e r a child's fairy-tale but food for thought. If anyone is offended by this, it should be the devout Christian who will see Christ as an ego-' tistie human being, Judas as having strengths as well as weaknesses, the Romans a3 having their share of problems, and the. Jews as being persecuted martyrs—as well as human beings capable of love,doubt, empathy and fickleness. The play was so wholly .enjoyable and exciting that I doubt any of the over 9,000 in attendance looked for or could. * spot tinges of anti-Semitism. Even the authors Webber and Rice said they were writing an opera about a controversial character who was nonetheless a man, surrounded by as much , myth ,as truth.

I congratulate you on the care you,took in your Sideline's col? utnn last week to divorce yourself, in a sense, from the "Jesus Christ Superstar' controversy. You stated you hadn't seen the production which p l a y e d in Omaha Labor Day eve, and you carefully attributed the comments printed in the column to Sidney Lawrence at Kansas City. However, I think it may have been wiser to print the comments after the play, as many persons I talked with referred to "Mickey's column on antiSemitism in 'Jesus Christ Superstar" before anyone locally had a chance to view the play and provide an argument. After seeing the rock opera, I believe Mr. Lawrence would be what, you referred to as an "alarmist Jew." The evangelical nature of the-play, which he feels is "not improved by placing it in the rock musical tradition" is greatly improved^ bf just that -placement. ' '

Jewish Students Cite Need for Changes in '.-Jewish.' Community » Chicago (JTA)—According to 65% of 600 respondents to a questionnaire sent to one Uiou. sand Jewish students on campuses all over the country, changes will have to be made in Jewish communal life if the Jewish community wants to encourage youth to participate in •t. , The survey, conducted by the Chicago. Chapter of the American Jewish Committee, sought to elicit responses from students on: "Jewish establishment;" religious services; Jewish identity; Jewish education; reading matter, and reactions to Israel. Some of the findings of the., survey were.as follows: On what represented the "Jewish establishment" to the student, 17% replied that it was Jewish organizations; 15%—financially powerful .and influential Jews; 13%—the Jewish community; 9%—synagogues and temples, •and 5%—the family structure. To 30% of the students, "establishment" was a combination of 2 or 3 of these categories; 6% found it was all of the above, and 5% gave no answer. Synagogue On the subject of attendance at religious services, 48% attend on holidays only; 19% attend regularly; 17% stay away entirely, and 16% go occasionally. .Some of the specific statements by students regarding change in the synagogue structure were: Don't engage merely in rituals and unrelated prayers. Spend more time on philosophical and cultural meanings
rather than on repetition of rigidly structured services; help the family to learn about holidays and customs together; so they can be enjoyed as a family unit; Sermons are often too long- and meaningless to the immediate urgencies and relevancies of today's burning issues; Redirect "establishment" groups back to religious ideals instead of using the synagogue as a fund raising device; Sponsor more youth-centered activities and make facilities more readily available to them.
level, and 16% at the upper grade level. While "home" was not included in the- questionnaire as one of the levels for starting Jewish education, it was written in by 7% of the respondents.
