Omaha — Nehafna Lifschitz, the leading Jewish singer in-the Soviet Union before she left Russia two years, ago, will present a concert at the Israel Bond Banquet, Sunday, Dec. 12. The 6 p.)n. dinner will be held at Beth Israel Synagogue. E. Robert Newman, chairman of the 1971 Israel Bond Campaign in Omaha, said that the ne&s of Miss Lifschitz's appearance in Omaha is evoking keen interest in the Jewish community. The R u s s i a n songstress, now an Israeli citizen, offers a repertoire of Yiddish and Russian folk songs that excites waves of nostalgia when she is called upon to perform. Miss Lifschitz has been described as "the voice of silent Soviet Jewry." In 1969, an unprecedented decision by the Soviet authorities, granted h e r permission to join her family in, Israel. C r i ti c s have acclaimed her throaty, melodious voice and her involvement with the songs she sings and what they represent. Admission to the dinner and
Nehama Lifschitz concert is predicated i n the prior purchase of a minimum of $500 in Israel Bonds during the. 1971 campaign. Cost of the dinner, will be $G per person.

300 More Jews Leave Poland Copenhagen (JTA) — Three hundred- exit visas'were recently given to Polish Jews who have already left that country to settle elsewhere—and this in spite of an official order published by, the Polish government after the big Jewish exodus of 1969 directing cmigra-. tion officers not to authorize further Jewish exit visas. .. Arne Christensen, chairman of the "Danish Refugees-Help Committee," revealed that only 100 Jews came to Denmark and an additional 200 Polish Jews went: elsewhere: 28 to Israel, some 40 to Germany ^ where most of them had reparations payments waiting and pending, and the rest to the United States, Australia and Canada.
UNITED NATIONS (JTA)—The.largest single appeal by Soviet Jews seeking migration to Israel—a petition signedJ>y mqre than 1,000 Jews of more than 20 cities, was presented" Nov. 10 to the president of the' General Assembly, Ambassador Adam Malik of Indonesia, by Israeli Ambassador ,Yosef Tekoah. It was the second Soviet Jewry petition to be" transmitted to Malik during the Assembly's current 26th session. ,.,^The appeal declared that "The question of-the free emigration of the Jews becomes more acute with every passing day." It , continued: "Here in the USSR, where there is no Jewish culture and national life, where there are no Jewish schools and JewisTi theaters, where there is no-possibility to study the Jewish languages and the history of the Jewish people, where every day there is an unprecedented diminishing of the percentage of Jews who know their own language, in this country, we, as Jews, have no future." The appeal added: "Our desire to live in a Jewish State and " to be equals' among equals, sure of our future and the future of our generations, Is indestructible. We want and we will live under the Star of David, which personifies our proud Jewishness and . our unbreakable ties with the past, the present and the future of the Jewish people." r
Identification' Seen as Major Jewish Problem
Kiamesha Lake, N..Y. (JTA) —In his first public remarks chief executive officer of. the' Jewish Theological Seminary of America, Dr. GersonD. Cohen contended that the Jewish problem in the United States was not one of "searching for identity," but one of "identification." Addressing the biannual convention of the United Synagogue of America, Dr. Cohen said. "We are often told that what faces us is a crisis of identity.

The . plans called for sabotage of the U.S. Consulate and the American Cultural Center in Cairo by the Israeli agents which, it was expected, would be blamed on Egyptian radicals and would arouse U.S. opinion against aid to Egypt then being considered by Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. The plot went awry when an explosive 'device- detonated in Nathanson'a pocket at a Cairo movie house. Twelve Jews were subsequently arrested and eight were found guilty of espionage.

(Peggy Patrick, a staff member of the Des Moines Art Center, gave two gallery .talks in conjunction with the current Festival of Israeli Art. pn. .display at Tifereth Israel- 'Clubhouse Auditorium. The following excerpts are from her written review of the exhibit.) Des Moines—An exhibition of contemporary Israeli art has been on display this week at "Tifereth Israel Synagogue. - The exhibition represents the work of more than 20 artists, working in the areas of painting, watercolor, prints, sculpture, glassware and jewelry. The diversity of the individual artist is immediately apparent and gives the Festival of Israel art a vibrance that is exciting. "; ;There is Jakob Steinhardt, the* old master of graphic art; •Reuven Rubin, the dean of Israeli painters; Samuel Bak, the meticulous surrealist; David Sharir, whose delightful Persian-like, paintings glow and sing; and Shraga- Weil, who decoratively plays a textured
background reminiscent of the limestone reliefs of ancient Assyrian art behind his contemporary Biblical scenes. The city scenes are recorded Jby Ben Avram, the haunting children by Moshe Gat, -and the tempo of Israeli life by Jossi Stern. These artists, though residing in a relatively new home* land, bring into their work the variety of European training and exposure sensitized by the. world in which they have strug"gled. The heritage and the hope of the Israeli people takes form through t h e i r contemporary artists.

Y@yng Fashions at Israel Bonds Show By LYNDA MIRVISH Omaha—If the Israel Bonds Fasliion Show at the Blackstone Hotel, Thursday, November 11, is anything to judge by, it would seem that the "balance of power" in the Fashion World of the Middle East is surely tipped in Israel's favor. Whether in sportswear, knits, evening ensembles or furs, the Israeli designers manage to express something of the feeling of Israel in their clothes. The freedom of the desert in the Bedouin-inspired k a f t a n s , a grim touch of war in "peace"jacketefl pants-suits,: a biblical reference in an elegant striped suede "Jeseph's coat of many colors," and, above all, a loving devotion to detail in the fabrics, embroidery, trimmings and finish. These were clothes for the young and adventurous with a sense of comfort and confidence —ambassadors for one of Israel's foremost industries and v e r y representative of the young country which produces them. While the show was appreciated and. enjoyed by the audience at the Bond event, many of the more mature women felt >.that they would be unable to wear the youthful garments,
others -were frustrated that they were unable to buy .tho fashions here, in Omaha.; It seems to this reporter that such valuable public relations on Israel's behalf should be open to the entire community and' Israel Bonds could offer a new and different program for the Bonds Luncheon. '

It's, the Custom Here T
By CARL ALPERT Haifa—Israel customs inspectors at Lydda airport, or at Haifa, do not have an easy life. Tourists, or Israelis returning home f r o m abroad, approach the customs desk with some trepidation, even if they have clear consciences. The v e r y act of having someone rifle t h r o u g h your suitcases is somehow demeaning. Maybe he'll think your headache tablets are heroin, or question -the value of that linen tablecloth which you have brought at a gift for the aunt in Rishon XeZion. If the customs men have a "reputation" It Is perhaps be- Alpert cause of the duty imposed upon them to enforce law which are sometimes nonsense. Hardly a week goes by that the Israel press does not report one or another case of the imposition of customs duties which sound utterly ridiculous or worse, even maddening. For example: Last winter the Chicago lions Club rushed a gift of 200 waterproof orange reflector raincoats, to be used by Israel school children safety patrols. It was a thoughtful gift,,, , In' the interests of road safety, and the shipment was made by air, so that the kids could have the coats during the rainy season..But .customs demanded IL.5,500 duty to clear the shipment. The coats remained at the airport for about two months until the local Lions Club could haggle "the authorities into reducing the duty by half, and then went out to raise the money. A shipment of Iifcsaving equipment Intended for the Affuleh Hospital was not released because the customs authorities demanded |600 in duty payments. The hospital budget couldn't afford it.
to thetlny W s h conwnwiitu en Taiwan. Meat of — tteje Jews are
The collectors shrugged their shoulders; they don't make the laws, they said. They only enforce the regulations on the books. Many here still remember the shipment of 20,000 blankets sent to the Red Magan David —and the returned to the U.S. because the first aid organization couldn't afford to pay the customs duties. The furor that went up after that incident was nothing compared to the indignation when the collectors demanded customs payments on 25 ambulances sent_as gifts to the Red Magen David. The walls of the Knesseth building shook in the ensuing protest, and top treasury officials were forced to suspend the tax. The opening of Israel's first "eye bank" was held up for weeks because a couple of thousand dollars worth of equipment was locked op In bond at the port. The entire shipment was a bona fide gift, but the regulations were rigid. The Tel Aviv hospital couldn't pay, and the stuff gathered dust in the warehouse. Utimately a cOmpromiie agreement was reached. Not so lucky has been the organization known as AMLI. Through the years this group has supplied Israel with more than a million and a half .dollars worth of musical instruments. Orchestras, school bands, bugle and drum corps, music libraries, all have been beneficiaries of the program. Last year the project was practically wound up because it couldn't meet the customs demands. So the shipment of musical instruments has been suspended. I repeat, don't blame the customs men; they are only doing their duty. But vAo makes these laws? And why Isn't there provision for exercise of reasonable judgment, when It Js quite clear that there is no smuggling'Involved, no commercial transaction,-no profit being-made? Why must there be such rigidity in the enforcement? '• " :•: '•'•''

News Around the World Cabinet Post for Rabin
Ruth Gets Married!
Jerusalem (JTA)—Gen. Yitzhak Uabin, Israel's Ambassador to the United States for the past three years, is slated to enter the Cabinet late in 1972 or early in 1973, it was learned from reliable sources here this week. According to the sources, he will take the portfolio' of Minister of Development, now vacant. Rabin was Chief of Staff of Israel's armed forces during the Six-Day War. In recent months he has publicly expressed sharp criticism of American policies in the Middle East. Sources said Rabin had been due to enter the Cabinet early next year along with retiring Chief of Staff Gen. Haim Bar-Lev, but the shift was postponed in order to allow more time to find a successor. Bar-Lev will assume the Commerce and Industry portfolio held by Finance Minister Pinhas Sapir, who reportedly has approved BarLev's appointment.
Tel Aviv (JTA) — Ruth Aleksandrovich, released from a Soviet prison camp a month ago, was married here to her fiance, Isaiah Averbuch. Rabbi Itzhak Yedidya Fraenkel officiated at the ceremony which was held at the Wizo Club here and was attended by a small party of relatives and friends. Miss Aleksandrovich wore a long bridal gown with, hand embroidery which Was presented to her as a gift of the Wizo, Women's international Zionist Organization. The 24-year-old nurse from Riga served a one-year sentence for alleged antiSoviet activities.
Crystal Night Anniversary Bonn (JTA)—The West German press and political leaders paid little notice to the 33rd anniversary of the Crystal Night pogroms which was the start of the Nazi's anti-Jewish terror campaign. During the nights of Nov. 9-10, 1938 Nazis hi Germany and Austria destroyed Jewish businesses, synagogues, community buildings and apartment buildings. The only public address on this tragic •occurance was given by West Berlin's Acting Mayor Klaus-Schueltz during a wreath-laying ceremony at the Jewish Center of Berlin. "'We remember the victims of a persecution that saw. a climax of terror in this country 33 years ago," Schueltz said. "We Berliners are conscious of the obligation we bear to give all men who wish to live in our midst n a hope in a spirit of tolerance and .peace." : • -. ... ,,;

Faith in Generals Jerusalem (JTA)—Israelis.put their faith in generals, a public opinion disclosed. The. poll found that 75.5 percent pf the population favored the appointment of generals to top public posts. Including membership in the Cabinet. Only 17.1 percent were opposed and the rest had no opinion.
Conversion in Moscow Tel Aviv (JTA)—A conversion performed in Moscow by a three-member rabbinical panel headed by Rabbi Yehuda Leib Levin of the the Choral Synagogue has been accepted in Israel. It was the first conversion performed in : Moscow in over 20 years. Chief Rabbi Shlomo Goren of Tel Aviv, who inspected the documents submitted to hJm by a) Russion woman emigre, said the conversion was entirely in order. The name of'the emigre was not disclosed. Her husband, who arrived here eight months ago, said he had asked Rabbi Levin many times to perform the conversion, but the latter was reluctant apparently because no conversions had been performed for a long time. There was no indication whether Rabbi Levin feared he might , incur the displeasure of Soviet' authorities by performing a conversion. He agreed to it, however, after the husband left and the woman was preparing to emigrate to Israel. '
