Golda Meir Will Visit Rumania Next Month Jerusalem (JTA) — Premier Golda Meir will visit Rumania at the beginning of next month. Announcements confirming her trip were made simultaneously in Jerusalem and Bucharest this week. Mrs. Meir will be in . / Rumania four or five days. ' Hers,will be the first official visit by an Israeli Premier to a Communist bloc nation. Political observers here linked the trip to President Nixon's visit to Moscow scheduled to begin May 22. According to some sources, ' the Soviet leaders may want to inform themselves, through Rumania, of Israel's position prior: to Nixon's arrival. The Middle East situation is on the summit agenda. Mrs. Meir also may get a rundown on the position of President Anwar S a d a t of Egypt from. Rumanian President Nicolae Ceausescu, who visited Cairo recently, observers said. Another matter expected to be raised during Premier ' Melr's visit to Rumania is the

possibility of that country's taking a mediating role between Israel and the Arab states. This is believed to have been touched on in a general way by Rumanian Deputy F o r e i g n Minister Gcorghiu Macovescu, who visited Israel last week and conferred with Mrs. Meir and Foreign Minister Abba Eban. Observers here consider it possible that Ceausescu will' offer a concrete proposal in that direction. It is assumed here that Mrs. Weir's visit to Rumania is welcomed by both Moscow and Cairo, though there has been no official information to bear this out. Some officials expressed doubts that Rumania's invitation to Mrs. Meir, which is a pro-Israel political act, could have been sanctioned by Egypt. Algeria has already denounced p o s s i b l e Rumanian mediation plans. The official Algerian news agency said Rumania appeared to be seeking to raise the "IIussein-Allon plan," this time in Bucharest.

Israeli Troupe to Dance in Rumania Tel Aviv (JTA)—The Batsheva Dance Company of Israel, which has gained worldwide fame for its classical and modern performances, will go to Rumania late next month, it was learned here. It will be the first Israeli dance troupe to visit a Communist country, and will be going there shortly after Israeli Premier Golda Meir makes her unprecedented visit to'Rumania. Batsheva manager Pinhas Postel has returned from a threeday visit to Rumania, where he made the arrangements.

Tel Aviv (JTA)-Details of the escape of three Syrian prisoners-of-war from an Israeli POW camp on April 16 and the massive manhunt that managed tonet only one of them, were disclosed here. Security officials admitted that the two escapees reached Syria Monday although they may have been wounded !by-gunfire when Israeli soldiers spotted them crossing the Jordan River last week. - -, All three were sergeants and at least one of the escapees was an intelligence agent who had been g a t h e r i n g information from a Druze notable in the Golan Heights who has since b e e n arrested on espionage charges. They affected their escape by digging a nine-foot tunnel from a prison camp lavatory to a point outside the camp's perimeter fence. The digging took them seven hours, security sources said. Once outside the camp, one of the escapees m a d e for Tel Aviv where he was captured the next day at the central bus terminal. The other two pressed eastward toward the-Jordan River. - Immediately after the escape was detected, security forces set up roadblocks and mobile patrols sealed off routes leading to the borders while a dragnet Combed the countryside around the camp. The two POWs headed for the Jordan River were apparently on Israeli territory for four days but managed to evade capture. They reportedly rested two days in Jordan before returning to Syria;

amendment is necessary, the implications which some have sought to draw that there were religious r e a s o n s why the amendment should not be passed must be rejected." This was an apparent reference to four Orthodox Jewish organizations who issued a statement April 3 opposing the amendment as inimical to "our rights to continue practicing our faith as we have done for the past three centuries in America," This stance was immediately assailed by a leader of the 'Union of American Hebrew Congregations as "selfdestructive and anachronistic. "Judaism," Rabbi B e r z o n said, "was the first to recognize the status of the wpmaa and to give her freedoms which were previously unknown and as such it has nothing to fear from this amendment." To imply that this amendment will . "affect our ability to practice pur religious tenents freely, is to display a lack of faith in the American institution and the American way of life," he said.

Drive t© Move U.S. Embassy From Tel Aviv to Jerusalem Washington (JTA) — American Jewish leaders are trying to.get the support of both major parties for a proposal to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to* Jerusalem. Such a move would be tantamount to U.S. recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital, a status the U.S. has re-

fused to acknowledge since the State was formed in 1948. . Tfie Jewish efforts, begun in the wake of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's - 13th annual conference here last week, are aimed at the Platform Committees of the Democratic and Republican Parties.

Republican Official 'Abusive' to Rabbi Westfield, N.J., (JTA)-The State Republican Party organization canceled a social gathering honoring Vice President Spiro Agnew at a local synagogue because the rabbi approved a silent anti-war vigil at the synagogue at the time of tho fete. Rabbi Charles K r o l o f f of T e m p 1 e: Emanu-El reported that a party official was so in? censed at the idea of the vigil that he told .the rabbi: "If you people are going to pull, that kind of crap, why don't you all get back on the boat and go back where you camo from." Rabbi Kroloff refused to identify the official but .stated that he was an official authorized to arrange or cancel the gathering.

As Rabbi Kroloff recounted the story, the GOP unit rented the Reform temple's social hall because it is near the armory where a dinner for Agnew was also scheduled. Attendance, at the dinner was limited to those contributing at least $1000 a year to the party. Rabbi Kroloff agreed tb host the Agnew social because "I don't believe you should stay away from controversial figures." He added that secret servicemen a d v i s e d of the' youthful vigil, approved it. But when the GOP official was advised of the plans, he was "abusive" to the rabbi, according to the latter. Rabbi Kroloff, 36, has headed the 22-year-old Temple EmanuEl for six years. It serves 600 families.

The Jewish leadership hopes to get both parties\to include planks calling on the President to order the transfer of the Embassy. The shift of pressure^ from the State Department to the two political parties is said to be the result of the State Department's continued refusal, publicly and privately, to consider the latest proposal for an Embassy shift. The proposal was made last week by Sen. Robert F. Griffin (R. Mich.) acting Republican Senate Minority Leader. Addressing 300 delegates attending an AIPAC luncheon for Congressmen, Griffin said he endorsed the Embassy transfer to Jerusalem which was proposed last month by Rep.. Gerald Ford (R. Mich.), House Republican Minority Leader, at a meeting of the Zionist Organization of America's Cleveland Region. After Peace Griffin said the 'establishment of the U.S. Embassy In Jerusalem would have "a dramatic impact" on other countries which refuse to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital and would reaffirm "our belief that Israel would uphold the right of all religion" In the Holy City. Questioned afterwards by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, a State Department spokesman said the Department had no plans to "uproot" the Embassy from Tel Aviv. Later, AIPAC delegates were told that the Embassy would be moved to Jerusalem only when a Middle East peace settlement is achieved. Much of the impetus of the drive.to move the Embassy to Jerusalem is expected to come from AIPAC which is headed' by Irving Kane • of Cleveland, and Isaiah L. Kenen, executive .vice chairman. Kenen was honored at the AIPAC conference dinner for his 30 years of service, to the Jewish community.

Standing: Myrna Shlnbaum, program assistant of the National Conference on Soviet Jewry, brings in latest mail bearing petitions, to Glorfann Grayman (seated), of Hadassah's youth movement, Hashachar. Hadassah and all the major national Jewish organizations affiliated with the conference hope to collect one million signatures on petitions urging President Nixon to Intervene on behalf of Soviet Jewry when he sees Russian leaders in Moscow. Petitions should be collected by local organizations and. sent in bulk mailings directly-to the White House. The goal Is Solidarity Sunday—April 30.

Jewish Community Relations Committee

Let's End the Delay By HAROLD ADLER Omaha JCRC Director T w e n t y - f i v e years have passed since the subject of "genocide" was first discussed at Oie United Nations and since the U.N. approved a convention on the prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide. The most prestigious country In the world, the country which professes to be a leader of moral forces in the world—the United States — has not approved the United Nations convention. Seventy-five countries, but not the United States, have ratified .this convention. Within the U.S. Senate, efforts axe underway to get that body to consider and approve the United Nations convention. On March 30,1971, over a year ago, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted to endorse this convention, which had been adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1948. Senator Mansfield, the Senate majority leader, has de• dared that if a majority of the Senate signifies its support for ratification, he -will schedule the matter for Senate action. As a' result of this statement four S e n a t o r s : S e n a t o r s - Church,' Javits, Proxmire and Scott are circulating a letter that asks Senator Mansfield to •act.At least 39 Senators have al. ready signed it. Twelve more names are heeded to meet Senator Mansfield's conditions for submitting the matter to the . Senate for action. The following Senators have signed the letter: • Republicans: Brooke, Case, Javits, Scott,' Mathias, Packwood, Schweiker, Boggs, Stevens, Stafford, Roth, Percy, Saxby, Hatfield, Taft, and Welcker. Democrats: Church, Cranston, Hart, Hughes, Humphrey, Jackson, McGee, Magnuson, Muskie, Pell, Proxmire, Ribicoff, Stevenson, Symington, Tunney, Williams, B u r d i c k, Gravel, Moss; McGovern, Harris, Mondale. It. is hoped that at least 12 more Senators will decide to join in the* letter to Senator " Mansfield, particularly if they are made aware that many people support ratification of _the_Convention. TJioseJSenators 'not listed should be asked to ."Join' with their colleagues in -support of the convention. '"• One reason that many Senators have been reluctant to join in supporting this. conven' tion has been the opposition of the American Bar Association, taken ia 1949 by their house of delegates. ":•'.. .. It is significant that at the midyear meeting of the ABA in February, 1970, a proposal to \ reverse the 1949 position and * put the> American Bar Asso' ciation. on record in support of the Genocide Convention failed by a close vote of 126 Jb 130. What is significant is that every section and committee

of the association, according to Arthur Goldberg, "having specialized competence in the subject matter has come out in support of ratification of the convention during the last few years." Several past presidents of the association have also gone on record in support of the Convention. . ; During hearings on the matter, two ABA members appeared in opposition to the Genocide C o n v e n t i o n and raised legal objections to the Convention. After reviewing the arguments raised and1 voting MM for ratification, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee stated: "We find no substantial merit In the arguments against the convention. Indeed, there is a note of fear behind most arguments—as if genocide were rampant in the United States and this* nation could not afford to have its actions examined by international organs— as if our Supreme Court would lose its collective mind and. make of the treaty something it is not—as if we as a people don't trust ourselves and our society." Former Justice Goldberg and .Richard Gardner, professor of law at Columbia said in a Tecent article: "We do not say that our adherence to this convention will work miracles. It

TREES FOR VIETNAM The wanton destruction of Viet-Nam by the United States Air Force has prompted Jews throughout the United States to organize a day of protest and conscience within the Jewish communities across the country. It has been suggested the Jews should perhaps plant trees in Viet-Nam to help repair this land our tax money helped to destroy. Endorsers of this action include students at all the major rabbinical seminariesij Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, Rabbi Schlomo Carlebach, and others including Rabbi Sondford Ragins, formely of .^Lincoln. • : '•.•.'-; People interested in an organized response in Omaha should call us at 553-1914 after six in the'evening.

Let us remember, however, that none of the great documents of human civilization produced instant morality—not even the Magna Carta or our own Bill of Rights. The point is that they did shape history in the long run. We believe the some may be true of the Genocide Convention, if we only give it a chance." "The Genocide Convention, outlaws action that is repugnant to the American people and to our constitutional philosophy. We should not decline to affirm our support for principles of international law and morality in which we believe."

Try Yiddish, You'll Like It By BEN C.FRANK New, York—"Yiddish 'will never really die . •• unless there are no Jews," said a young American-born teacher of the only Yiddish class in a _ New York public high school. The high school is Bayside High School, Queens, N.Y., where last fall 25 students signed . up for the course in,Yiddish often as the result of Mr. Goodman's friendly persuasion which included, "Try Yiddish, you'll like it." And they did try it. • . Why did they respond s6 eagerly.and what were their reasons for signing up for the course? First of all, Bayside High School has a language'tradition: It probably has the fullest language department in the city—and it offers French, Spanish, German, Italian, Hebrew and • now Yiddish. Many took_Yiddish_.a^a second language to , Hebrew which they were studying. It Is important to note that since the Six-Day . War, there has been a resurgence of Hebrew in New York public schools especially where the local population continues to be Jewish. Bayside, High School doubled its Hebrew enrollment from 45 to 90 in the last year alone.

Others took the new language, Yiddish, at the high school because when they were younger, they said, they heard it at home. . i Also, there were a few non-Jewish students who were studying German and who were interested and curious about Yiddish, which many rightly or wrongly compared with German. Registering, too, for Yiddish were the ones the, educators sometimes call the. "searchers." They signed up "because they wanted to know about their own Jewish culture," explained Mr. Goodman. He quickly adds, however, that while their is a resurgence of interest in Jewish culture, "this does not mean Yiddish'will break out all over the school." - : The course is taught as a language, on a secular basis and with reading lists. In a Yiddish course, you also talk about World War II andlhe Six Mililon and Mr! Goodman has learned that many Jewish students know "nothing" about the Six Million. . In an era when language study in general is declining in high schools, it is nicevto note that Yiddish, to repeat the phrase is "alive and kicking and doing well."

Mayor Lindsay Signs Bill Banning Sabbath Elections •-• New York (JTA) -r- Mayor John V. Lindsay's April 17 signing of a bill banning Sabbathelections for official or quasiofficial offices was hailed by a cosponsor of the bill as "a successful conclusion to a 19-month fight Jor recognition of the rights of minority people within the minority group." .Councilman Theodore Silverman (D. Brooklyn) said "Those of us who fight against bigotry and discrimination know that when any single person's civil liberties are compromised all of us suffer. Sabbath observers

will now have a meaningful role in our electoral process." The bill, co-sponsored by Councilman Kenneth H a b e r (L, Brooklyn), bans such elections from Friday evening through Sunday. Also this week, Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller signed the Silverman-Lewis Bill banning all types of elections in New York State on the Jewish Sabbath and holy days of all faiths. The new law covers all elections in which city, state or federal monies are involved.

Soviet Official Warns Against Youths Attending Synagogues New York (JTA)—The Religious Affairs Minister of the Soviet Belorussian Republic entered the Minsk synagogue several weeks ago and warned the congregants to keep younger Jews out or face possible "unpleasant consequences." •:.

Jewish Center Sets 'No Smoking' Rules Scranton, Pa..

He said the authorities wanted to build a housing project on the site. In another reported development, physicist Herman Barnover of Riga has been threatened with a trial if he continues conducting a Hebrew class in. J the synagogue.

THE

Fsge Ten

By MRS. MORRIS C. FELLMAN The other day a young woman commented to me that in this column our emphasis too often was on the fact that the Home reridents had spent a "delightful" or "pleasant" day. Perhaps so, but for a reason. To so many of the elderly at the Home, one day is just like another—boring and tiring. That's why LOVE offers a welcome change in the daily routine . , . that's why for the elderly every day spent "delightfully" or "pleasantly" Is one more day of sharing in the joys of life. To help the days pass more "pleasantly," plans are now being made by LOVE and the Recreational Director at the Home to bring in large print books from the Omaha Public Library so residents can read them more easily than the ordinary print in regular books. Records of stories—the same kind used by the blind—are also going to become a part of the record library at the Home. •

Rockettes in their class are working on a project with copper tooling. When finished, their handicraft will be framed and hang on the walls in the rooms of the creators. The Wednesday night movies continue to be one of the highlights of LOVE's activities—last week the feature was "Easter Parade" with Judy Garland and Fred Astalre . . . this week "Lili" with Leslie Caron.

Jewish Marchers Join War Protest

'Anytown, Nebraska' Plans Human Relations Workshop

New York (JTA)—Two Jewish contingents totalling about 400 marchers participated in a march to end the Vietnam War, according to Moshe Kagan, chairman of the executive committee of the Americans for Progressive IsraelHashomer Hatzair. The Jewish participants were evenly distributed between the Zionist contingent API-IIH and the Radical Zionist Alliance, and the left-wing Jewish Cultural Societies. The marchers ranged in age from teenage to adult. The API-HH distributed leaflets opposing the war and bombing in Vietnam and calling for peace in the Mideast. "Although we do not link the two causes," Kagan said, "wo feel that peace is indivisible."

Omaha—The second annual "Anytown, Nebraska," an educational workshop for human relations, will be held this year June 11-17 at Dana College, Blair. Sophomore and junior students from h i g h schools throughout the state are being recruited to participate in this unique camp experience. Anytown president, R. Jerry Hargitt, said "We are planning on having 100 young men and women and we hope to have the same diversity of racial, religious and ethnic backgrounds represented at Anytown as exist among Ncbraskans." The Camp director again this year will be Father Larry Dorsey and a staff of professional counselors and qualified adult advisors from business, government and clergy are part of the session. \ Among tho civic, religious and ethnic organizations spon-

News Around the World presently assembled at a plant in Israel. A Ford truck assembly plant would replace the British Leyland Motor Co. plant whose monopoly on truck assemblie shere expires shorly.

School Aid New York (JTA)—The National Council of Jewish Women has expressed concern over President Nixon's pledge to extend federal aid to non-public schools. In a letter to the President, Mrs. Earl Marvin, NCJW president, stated that the intent to give aid to parochial schools runs counter to a number of court decisions. "We strongly oppose any attempts to circumvent the principle of separation of church and state," she wrote and expressed the hope that "as a demonstration of your devotion to a strict interpretation of our Constitution you will reconsider this commitment." Mrs. Marvin added that apart from the Constitutional question' involved, federal aid to nonpublic schools would diminish funds for public education, which are already inadequate, and thus further weakens publio education.

Ford Coming to Israel Tel Aviv, (JTA)—The establishment of a Ford truck assembly plant in Israel moved a step closer when a group Of Israeli businessmen, including local Ford agents, were invited to London to. discuss the project. The invitation came from the manager of Ford industries in Europe. It was a follow-up to the recent Israel visit of Henry Ford II. The American motor magnate expressed interest in increasing Ford's investment in this country. Ford's European-made motorcars are

Restitution Ordered Bonn (JTA)—An International High Court for Restitution, sitting in West Berlin, has ruled that the Bonn government must pay indemnity for all art works belonging to Jews that were confiscated by the Nazis during World War II.

Arab Student Drop-Outs Jerusalem (JTA)—Haifa University is cenducting a study to find out why about 25 percent of its Arab students drop out at the end of their first year. Eliezer Rafaeli, vice-president of the university, said one explanation of the high dropout rate is due to the difficulties in the transition from Arabic-speaking schools in the sheltered 1 social climate of the traditional Arab community to the sophisticated environment of a modern Hebrew-speaking university. . Another difficulty, he noted, was the need for many Arab students to travel long distances from their villages to Haifa because of the shortage of accommodations in town. Jewish homeowners, Rafaeli said, are reluctant to rent rooms to Arab students and Arabs do not usually take -in lodgers. ,

Anti-Israel Show in Holland Amsterdam (JTA)—Dutch television broadcast a 30-minute children's program on "The

History of the Jewish People and the State of Israel." The program, under the auspices of the Dutch Protestant-Church, inclined strongly toward anti-Israel propaganda. : The program showed that Jews, expelled : from numerous countries, had established their State by killing or expelling 100,000 Arabs, destroying their homes and forcing them to live in refugee camps. •

Floating Hotel New York (JTA)—The Cunard Line has an- .. nounced that its cruise liner Queen Elizabeth 2 will visit Israel for the first time during Passover, 1873, Israel's 25th anniversary year, and ' will spend 18 days there as a floating hotel. The 66,000-ton liner Will be the largest passenger vessel ever to call at Israeli ports and her stay there—from April 21. to May 8—will be the longest for any cruise ship. ' .:•".
