Israel Rapped for Action in Hijack Geneva (JTA)—The International Red Cross Committee, in what its own spokesman labeled "a highly exceptional move," decided to lodge a formal protest With the Israeli government against the use of armed force to liberate 100 hostages aboard the hijacked Sabcna jet. The IRC spokesman said that the m o v e was prompted by what he termed "Israel's flagrant abuse of confidence" and "break of an oral agreement." The spokesman sharply rejected the suggestion that there might have been a misunderstanding. "We had 100 per cent reason to believe that force would not be used while negotiations were still in progress and were on the point of succeeding," the spokesman said. He claimed that Israeli authorities had assured the Red Cross representatives at Lydda Airport that force was not contemplated. They claimed that the IRC d e l e g a t e s and Dayan had reached an oral agreement providing for the release of 300 Arab terrorists jailed in Israel in exchange for the hostages and the plane. Less thart three hours after the agreement was reached, they said, Israeli sol-' diers disguised as maintenance men, boarded the plane, and opened fire on the terrorists. Charges Denied Foreign Minister,Abba Eban and Defense Minister Moshe Da?3ir«taoVit dcaiTThat Israel categorically rejects the charges. The Israel minister noted that the IRC representatives had been invited to tho airport by the terrorists who were holding the passengers and crew members of the Belgian jet at gunpoint threatening to blow up the aircraft unless their demands were met. The IRC mission, they said, was solely to convey

THE JEWISH

messages from the terrorists to Israeli authorities and tho terrorists. At no point did Israel promise IRC representatives that it would not use force to liberate the plane. In fact, the ministers reported, the IRC men were told that force would be used if no other way could be found to save tbe lives of the hostages.

Director Named for. Omaha JCC Omaha—The appointment of Omaha's f i r s t full-time Jewish Community Center Director was announced this week by Charles Monasee, chairman of the Jewish Community Center Committee. Ity Tabachnkk, 38, Director of the Mattapan-Dorchester Combined Jewish Philanthropies Center in Boston, has accepted the Omaha position effective June 1,1972. • Mr. Monasee explained that the new position of Center Director was an important, logical step in preparing for the new Jewish Community Center building and the new concept of service it will provide. Reviewing the work of the 250 members of the New Center Study Committee, Mr. Monasee said that the broad scope of needs and program recommendations indicated by the study, required a full-time experienced person to administer the programs and services to be provided by the Center. Mortimer Greenberg, Executive Director of the Omaha Jewish Federation, described the criteria used in .the selection of the Center Director. 1. Experience as a high-level administrator in a complex organization. 2.

JCahone Unwelcome,_ A t AJCongress Meet CLEVELAND (JTA)—Rabbi Meir Kahane, national chairman of the Jewish Defense League, was refused admittance to the National Biennial Convention of the American Jewish Congress after he demanded the right to address it on the subjects of Soviet Jews and American aliya to Israel. Theodore Bikel, co-chairman of the AJCongress' National Governing Council, who was chairing a plenary session when Rabbi Kahane arrived uninvited, declared that the JDL leader "has no right to bully Tiis way into our meeting, disrupt our deliberations or otherwise force his views on us. We particularly regret Mr. Kahane's slanderous accusations identifying us as persons who 'stand by and do nothing' in the face of mounting Soviet oppression against tfie courageous Jews of the Soviet Union. We regard as despicable Mr. Kahane's self-seeking attempt to use the USSR's intensified attack against Jewish activ-' ists in the Soviet Union for his own personal publicity."

What Is Good for §®eiety Always Good for Jews

Sadat's Speech Gets Cash for Israel

He said he hoped the AJCongress would "rededicate itself to opening channels of communication both to other religious and ethnic groups in American society and with opposing viewpoints within the Jewish community. In our nation as a whole as in our Jewish community it is a time to heal and to bind, a time to lower tensions and defuse anger," Rabbi Hertzberg said.

CLEVELAND (JTA)-Rabbi Arthur Hertzberg, newly elected president of the American Jewish Congress, declared in his inaugural address that American Jews must find a "middle course" that will include concern both for the universal values of human rights and the particular needs of Jewish survival. Addressing 500 delegates attending the AJ Congress' national biennial convention, Rabbi Hertzberg said, "We Jews have learned to our sorrow that . what is good for society is not always good for Jews. We can no longer assure that working to improve the community at large will enhance the lots of the Jews, At the same time, however, we .dare not over react by succumbing to the obnoxious tendency to turn our back to the world and involve ourselves only with immediate Jewish interests." Rabbi Hertzberg urged a policy based on the philosophy of the Jewish rabbi Hillel: "If I am. not ior. myself, then who Will be forme? But if I am

Jerusalem (JTAJ—A Chicago lawyer, Gene K. Edlin, has sent a check for $25 to Shaul Ramati, Israeli Consul General in Chicago, saying that this follows Egyptian President Anwar Sadat's latest inflammatory speech against Israel. The lawyer added tbat every time Sadat made such a speech he would send a similar donation to Israel. If Sadat, realizes that he thus becomes a fundraiser for Israel he will perhaps think again before making such speeches, Edlin concluded in the accompanying letter.

Newspaper Says Jarring Was Former Nazi Party Member UNITED NATIONS (JTA)—A United Nalions spokesman has rejected as trivia] a charge by a Swedish newspaper that Dr. Gunnar V, Jarring, the UN's special Middle East representative, was once a member of a Swedish Nazi Party. The spokesman replied to a charge by the Aftenbladet (Evening Blade), one of Sweden's largest papers, that Dr. Jarring was a parliamentary candidate of the National Unity Party in 1936 when he was 29. The paper said Dr. Jarring, wlio is now Sweden's ambassador to the Soviet Union, was active in the party from 1926 to 1939, leaving it one year before entering the Foreign Minis-

The party, according to the Aftenbladet, demanded that Jews be barred from entering Sweden. _ The UN spokesman said that according to information obtained here—Dr. Jarring is in 1 Moscow—the diplomat joined the youth organization of the Conservative Party in 1926 when it was considered respectable. Later, however, the youth unit broke from the party and formed a Nazi-oriented organization of its own, he said, and Dr. Jarring.left the group in 1937. "Somebody must be pretty hard up for news," the spokesman said, but he was unsure whether Dr. Jarring had left the party before or after It veered far right.

American Jewish commitment to Israel, he said, should "not caj-' ole us into stifling dtjsent, or viewing our life here as any less important than life in Israel." Jewish leadership, he

added, "must shift from the professionals, the wealthy and" the politicians to the scholars, the thinkers and the activists."

Too Much of a Good Thing ,|

By CARL ALPERT

/'.. Haifa—There can be too much of a good ... thing—or success which is so successful that ; there is danger of its becoming a failure. .; Something of that sort may - be said about Israel's program to encourage Jews overseas to • build homes in Israel.- The principle was simple and logical. If relatively large numbers of Jews from Omaha or London or Johannesburg would . invest in construction of a second home for themselves in ty Israel they would bring foreign currency into Israel .and at the Alpert same time create strong personal ties with the country. A special company, Isralom, was set up for the purpose, and the business began to boom. Sales are made not to actual immigrants, but to persons living overseas who may have mixed motives. Some may .look upon the purchase as an investment. Some may thing of it as' an insurance policy, or perhaps just a winter home to be occupied for a few weeks, or a month, each year. As a matter of fact, such homes have be. come a most profitable investment and in the present housing boom in Israel their vajues - have risen anywhere from 25% to 50%. But the program has become too successful. ' Today there is a serious lack of building materials, a critical shortage of construction labor, and a disturbing reduction in the number ' of suitable plots. Since the demand for housing —by immigrants and by newly married couples continues to mount, the result has obviously "been to force prices upward. And the investor from1 abroad is an important contributing factor in that demand. The economists and housing experts have lined up on both sides of the argument as to . whether to encourage such foreign investment, " or to discourage it. ,. The Zionist goal has always been to encourage closer tic's with Israel, and those who build homes here will eventually come to live

here, claim the proponents of the program. The reply is that an unhealthy situation is created with a new class of wealthy absentees whose luxurious homes remain locked most of the year, while young Israeli couples, newly married, can't find a place to live within their means. . The sale of these apartments brings hard currency into the country, and is therefore in the category of a valuable export, continue those who favor the scheme. The reply: It puts money into circulation and contributes to inflation at the very time when the government is trying to counter inflation by drying up credits and ready cash. Furthermore,-the for.eign sales contribute to the driving up of housing prices, generally. That could not be, is the retort. Of the 45,800 family units sold in 1971 only 2.7% was to foreigners. The reply: a misleading statistic. This 2.7% of the number of apartments built was of larger, more expensive units, which used up more material and more labor, and one estimate is that 15-20% of money spent on housing comes from these sources, making it a serious element in the competition. There is' no easy answer to:the problem, and the conflict in view is perhaps best indicated by two recent proposals. Says one: Foreign investors should not have the, privilege of converting their funds into foreign currency for withdrawal from Israel in the event they sell their homes. This restriction will discourage all except those who seek permanent ties with the country. , And the opposite view: To the contrary, encourage the foreign investors to sell the homes and withdraw their money. For one thing it will put the houses on the market to help feed the hungry demand, and in the second place, the withdrawal of the money from the country will achieve exactly what the government wants—reduction of money from circulation. Obviously, both sides can't be right. And in a sense I am reminded of the tourists who, In the early 1950's when there was austerity and food shortages, ate the meat and eggs at their hotels with a guilty conscience, feeling they were taking food, out of the mouths of Israelis.

Spiritual Methadone Suggested To Bring Jesus freaks Back f

ByBENGALLOB

'' A .leading. Jewish educator , has expressed the belief that most Jewish youngsters joining • the "Jesus Freak" movement jancl.oJheT "extreme cults" are 'graduates of the drug culture -for-'whom "a kind of Jewish -spiritual - methadone must be •found'which "can ease them ' ,'JEroip:-their.high -to face real..__—: .View' was outlined by ' Drl Max Vorspan, executive vice-president ,of the University of Judaism, the Conservative school here. He discussed the problem of' Jewish youth involvement "in the Jesus movei ment and other aberrant cults" in an article in a new publication, "Common Sense," issued by the public affairs committee -.. of the Jewish Centers Associa' tlon of Los Angeles. Asserting • that the problem . ' was one unlikely of solution by '. appeals to reason to the Jewish) young people, Dr. Vorspan de• clared "it is precisely the most extreme and demanding of the new cults, such as Hare Khrishna, NicMrin Shoshu and the Jesus Freaks, which suppress rational inquiry in favor of secure dogmatic faith, which promise instant and total.sal1 vation, and which offer models

of reminders and- steps for "• dealing with the problem. Rabbi Vorspan, holding that "the adherents of the Jesus movement have g e n er a 11 y passed through the drug culture," said that this indicated that "the new religious faith is a kind of psychological equivalent and a replacement for the drugs which first turned them on." He contended that if the Jewish community hopes "to take them' off their new kick, we must find a kind of J e w i s h spiritual methadone which ran;.ease them'down from their high to face reality in a manner that invites the use of the intellect.?'. However, he warned,-f'breaking them of their 'habli'- and preventing others from joining them in their ecstatic adventure will not be easy." As one step, he suggested that efforts be made to find "Jewish.emotional i n v o l v e ments wlu'ch are equally potent." He said that the Chabad movement—a form of heo-Hasidism —/"with its emotional emphasis, its religious demands, its promise of 'salvation,' is probably the Jewish closest equivalent and probably can be effective as a counter environment. He added that '.'a visit to Israel, provides a strong countervailing envirin-

fet'' H l d n

gurus and sainu, which' are ttiakmg Conquests'«'f 'Jewish y , »-, fouls/'. He. proposed, a jjumber .strong sense, of, community

cohesiveness, can provide a powerful emotional impact and preventative influence." He suggested also that the adult community, "trust in time. Quick salvation often leads to quick disillusionment. Y o u n g people go t through phases and sometimes patience will be rewarded." In addition, he said, adults should bo reminded that attraction on the part of Jews "to non-Jewish religions and faith-is not new. Our passionate response to the missionary threat throughout Jewish history has ofen resulted in a renewal and reawakening of our Jewish life." "Most fundamental of all" to the problem and its solution, he said, was the fact that the Jewish community and Jewish families "have long disregarded the spiritual dimensions of life in favor of practical, material and organizational considerations." He said adults have shown appropriate concern "for the body and its needs, for pleasure and its attainment." Now, he declared, "wo are discovering that many young people are concerned with their soul and its demands." He noted-that Jewish tradition "Has always emphasized the spiritual, the sacred, even the mystical, along with sociality, anaiervice."j Even in •:t.hejprescnt'age of upheaval, he declared,; \ f'jthisj tradition can speak |1JO . flur <ypuhg gen ' ' ti/'

Sidelines By Mickey Gereltek

Shavuot Thoughts Seven weeks ago we celebrated the festival of Passover, We recalled the exodus of the Jew from slavery in Egypt. We rejoiced in the historical event t h a t heralded freedom for our, people. But the meaning of Passover I is closely hinged I to the festival of I Shavuot w h i c h ! we celebrate to-j day. To enjoy M< G c r c , J c k this.new found freedom the Jew needed laws. There can he no liberty without responsibility, and the revelation of Torah at Sinai provided the first code of laws by which man could live In freedom. Shavuot commemorates the founding of a new way of life. Since that time the moral 'teachings of the 10 commandments have been the basis for every attempt by .man to establish a meaningful system of government. Many pages of history have been written since the revelation at Sinai. A new page was written this week with tbe attempted a s s a s s i n a t i o n of George Wallace. The new page serves as a reminder on this Shavuot that the lessons of the first code of laws is still to be learned. There can be no freedom without responsibility. Readers of this column • are well aware that I am not a supporter of George Wallace. I've voiced my fears about his rising political power. I deplore his appeal to bigotry. I am terrified by his espoused philosophy; his simplistic answers \n com-

plex problems. I think he is a threat to every principle of American freedom we bold dear. But the attempted assassination of George Wallace gives rise to even greater fears. Assassination is not the answer; indeed, it poses ever greater problems. Freedom of speech m e a n s freedom for all men, including George Wallace, lie cannot bo silenced by assassination. His death by bullets would havo made him a martyr, and in martyrdom he becomes even a greater danger. Basic to the teachings of Torah is tho uncompromising -belief in tho sanctity of human life. This basic law applies to all people, including Georgo Wallace. ~ I pray for his complete recovery, for only then do we escape the threat posed by his potential martyrdom. I pray for the sanity and wisdom of government leaders that will lead to tho enactment of responsible laws about the sale and use of guns. There is no justification.for our failure to control the use of w e a p o n s which lead to wanton murder. If American freedom is to survive, George Wallace and all others of his ilk must be defeated by ballots, not bullets. If humanity is to survive, the laws revealed at Sinai must become, the basis for what wo do as well as what we say. The events of the past week provide some sobering food for thought this Shavuot holiday. I pray we have como a little closer; to understanding that which was revealed to our ancestors so many years ago.
