Jerusalem (JTA)—No European or American travel organization has canceled a summer tour to Israel as a result of the Lydda Airport massacre, according to Hanoch Givton, director general of the Tourism Ministry. . . . . . This is true of both Jewish and non-Jewish organizations, he. said. In fact, he added, one large European agency cabled the Ministry to reaffirm its desire for hotel space. : Observers here conclude that the Lydda Shootout is being •'considered a single, though tragic, incident, compared with the skyjackings of W70, which caused an atmosphere of un: certainty. In New Yojrk, the B'nai B'rith's Tour^ Department reported a "decided upswing" in requests for bookings in Israel in the aftermath of the massacre. "Many of the callers anticipated a fall-off in some of our fully booked Israel tours and wanted in," tour director Paul Braverman said. "But we haven't had a single cancellaVtioniV.fTbe B'nai B'rith Board of Governors affirmed a pro' posal to' convene its annual hieelihg' In' Israel next year.

Rabin Denies Endorsing Re-election of Pres. Nixon WASHINGTON (JTA)-Ambassador Yitzhak Rabin angrily assailed unnamed Israeli officials' and the Jerusalem correspondent of the' Washington Post for a dispatch published . on the front page of the Post -alleging that the Israeli envoy

favored President Nixon's reelection. Rabin declared that statements he had made in an interview he gave recently In Washington for the Israel State Radio was "misquoted" and "out of context." He charged that

Klein, Tunney Disagree..oh What Nixon Did in Moscow New York (JTA)-IIe r b e r t Klein, the White House Director of .Communications, said on a radio show here June 7 that President Nixon "did discuss the Issue of Soviet Jewry and American concern was made, known to all top Soviet leaders as well as those on lower levels" during the Moscow summit talks last month. Klein said the President was aware "of the concern of all thinking Americans, not only those of the Jewish commun•' tty, regarding the plight of Soviet Jews." -He added that Oils problem is viewed as a very

delicate one, especially since the Soviets see it as an Internal issue. In Washington the Congressional Record carried a speech by Sen. John V. Tuiiney (D-Callf.) in which he said "It does not appear that the President even raised the issue of the treament of Jews by the Soviet government" during the summit talks. He said that if the President did raise the issue, "he has kept it a well guarded secret." "I am com cerned about the President's failure to raise the issue of the Soviet Jews and the implications of that failure in decisionmaking, the implication that the Congress is not included in the processes and that the human beings affected are often submerged in a grand design," Tunney said.

the Washington Post dispatch, by Yuval Elizur, represented an "effort to cause great damage between the United States and Israel, between the American and Israeli people and between the Jewish communities in Israel and the U.S." The dispatch appeared under the headline, "Israeli Preference for Nixon Hinted," and stated that Ambassador Rabin had "indicated that he would favor President Nixon's re-election in November's election." It quoted the Israeli Ambassador as saying, "while we appreciate support in the,form, of words we are getting from one camp, we must prefer support in the form of deeds from the other camp." Rabin said he was misquoted, He said that in the original interview, conducted in Hebrew, he had indeed distinguished between support by words and support by deeds but did not relate them to either' "camp." He stressed that the policy, of the Israel Government and its Embassay is not to interfere In any domestic affairs of the U.S. In more than four years as Ambassador in Washington he said, he had pursued that policy and would continue to pursue it as long as he is Ambassador. .

Soviet Jew Arrested; Bride Returns to U.S. Washington (JTA)-State Department sources report that Mrs. Judy Silver Shapiro left Moscow for London by plane this week after she was informed that she could not remain in the Soviet Union because her visa expired. Other sources report that her husband of five days, Gavriel Shapiro, was arrested at Moscow Airport where he had gone to see her off. His whereabouts are presently unknown. Shapiro, a leading Jewish activist, was reportedly seized as a. draft dodger. He married Miss Silver, a social worker f r o m Cincinnati, Ohio, last Thursday at a ceremony in his Moscow home performed by an • American rabbi. The couple was denied a civil marriage by Soviet authorities. Mrs. Shapiro's visa "expired Monday. The office of Sen. Robert Taft Jr. (R, Ohio)' said that nothing will be done on behalf of Mrs. Shapiro until the Senator returns to Washington. Mrs. Shapiro's parents, Dr. and Mrs. Nathan Silver of Cincinna-

tl, were promised by Sen. Taft that he would ask the 'White House to intervene'to have their daughter's visa' extended so that she could rernain with her husband. ' ' : ' ' Informed sources. said, that In-tourist, the Soviet' tourist bureau, had advised Mrs. Shapiro that her vjsa;cptild;nqt be extended0, because no h p t e l rooms wef6: .available In'.Moscow, Leningrad, Kiev or Tbilisi.

Editors Note: Mort Yadin, 41, was born in Harbin, China and emigrated to Israel at the age of 18. A graduate of the. Hebrew University, he worked in the Israeli E m b a s s y in Washington when Abba Eban was ambassador. When Mort decided to remain in the.

It was also stressed that Kukui's well-being was Parshakov's personal responsibility. • A Miracle Happened In her letter to Yadin, Mrs; Kukui wrote she had not heard front her li u s h a n d in six months—nor had any of his .friends or relatives, but after the phono contact with Parshakov, "all of sudden a miracle happened that we could not explain." A friend had finally been per- mitted to visit Kukui and "ten bandits who instigated the harassment and "beating of Valerie were tried and convicted to a half-year confinement in a prison cell. A thing of this nature does not happen in a labor camp. It had to have a strong push; and now it is clear to me that the reason for all these events was your telephone conversation." Mrs. Kukui expressed some apprehension that the "bandits" m i g h t seek "revenge" when they were released but added, "one thing-is clear"— they will know that the camp administration is not on their side.

ByBENGALLOB A Reform expert on synagogue administration has reported that establishment of new Reform and Conservative synagogues in the United States has come to a virtual halt while an increasing number of such congregations have been merging. Some or the planned and prospective mergers involve amalgamations of Conservative and Reform congregations. Myron Schoen, director of the office of synagogue administration of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, attributed the changes largely to the pressures of economics and the increased mobility of the-American Jewish family. Citing specifics, Scboen said that, after almost two decades during which 20 to 50 new Conservative and Reform synagogues were established annually, during the past two years both the UAIIC and the United Synagogue of America, the association of Conservative congregations, "have been able to count additions on the two hands. More important, these additions were not net gains," some being the result of mergers. He reported that "where formerly there.were two congregations in some communities, today there is only one." • Since the spring of 1970, "there have been at least a doEen Reform congregations that have been involved in discussion of merger and seven.of these have ended up with merger agreements and are now functioning as one congregation," Schoen reported. Four involved "mixed marriages," but three remained Reform, the fourth emerging as Conservative. The deciding factor in each case, he said, was the affiliation of the rabbi. In three of the four situations small communities were involved "that could not afford in terms of numbers as well as dollars the maintenance of two synagogues;" ••' The problem of rabbinical leadership is often crucial, Schoen reported. Congregations with less than 200 fargjlies generally expend 70 per cent of their annual operating funds to pay tho rabbi's salary, housing and pension, "but even when'the fund3 are available, fewer and fewer younger graduates of our seminaries are willing to serve in these smaller communities on the basis of an 'internship.' The flight of young families from these smaller communities has made the small town pulpit less and less desirable to them." , Schoen reported also that the "most delicate" of the issues* in mergers is that of which of the two rabbis will be the rabbi of the merged congregations. With eight to 10 mergers known to be pending, Schoen said, the development could hardly be considered a "tidal wave." A more accurate evaluation, he declared, was, that "an accelerated effort" was under way "to keep synagogues operative in communities where the Jewish population is diminishing." He predicted "an equal number of such mergers in the next few years."

Miss Naomi Schoichet to Be Bride of Jeffrey N. Caspe

Sally Priesand Ordained; Graduates Hear HescheT \. New York (JTA)-Newly ordained Reform rabbis were told here that they must actively concern themselves with the plight of the Jews in urban centers and that, if they did not, the "hysterical" and militant approaches of groups, like the Jewish Defense League could supplant the present institutional structure as the new voice of the Jewish community. Dr. Abraham Joshua Heschel issued that warning to the 1972 graduates of the Hebrew. Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion-at graduation exercises. Ten new Reform rabbis were ordained and five graduates of the School of Sacred Music were invested as cantors at the N.Y. ceremony. Sally Prelsand, 25, was also o r d a i n e d at the Cincinnati branch of the Reform Seminary as the first woman rabbi in history. She and 35 male rabbinical candidates were ordained by Rabbi Alfred Gbttschalk, president of the Seminary. Rabbi Preisand has b e e n named assistant rabbi at the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue in Manhattan, a congregation • of 750 families. Dr. Edward E. Klein, senior rabbi of the Synagogue, said, "Rabbi Priesand was selected because of her dedication to the ministry and her splendid record in student pulpits in the .south and midwest." She arrives Aug. 1.,

Dr. Heschel said that "unless there is a more sympathetic and compassionate response to the anguish of those caught in the crisis of our times, the • mood of despair in the Jewish community will only deepen and the charlatans with their demogogic slogans will be hailed as the spokesmen of our people." He described the "neglected constituencies of pur community" as the Jewish poor, the aged trapped in changing neighborhoods, Jews in the civi^ service and teaching professions who feel threatened by "other groups,"rand scaltersite housing projects like the much - debated low - income apartment p r o j e c t in'Forest Hills.

health resorts of Europe. But another, thought struck me. Surely here in tills lovely forest is the answer to the tourist who has been complaining about the "Miami Beach" character of the country's new hotels. After a week or two of madly dashing about Israel, here is where the, weary visitor could find rest and relaxation. For those who like leisurely walks, there arevmiles of quiet, shaded lanes through the forests. There is a swimming pool and sports facilities/The view of the Mediterranean from this hilltop is striking. The utter quiet has its own relaxing, therapeutic effect on refugees from the clamor and bustle, the noises and smells of the modern city. When I suggested to the management that they open up to tourists, they were interested. I pointed out that the number of Nazi vicitims using these facilities is bound to diminish with the years. Millions have been spent in creating this spacious resort, and the place should draw a wider clientele. It is not for the tourist who is looking for noise and excitement. It has been designed in the gracious manner of the popular spas and health resorts of Switzerland and Austria. The very nature of tourism to Israel i s . changing also.

Haifa—Even we Israelis sometimes find new sites and new surprises, often quite close to home. It happened to me last week. We took the back road out of Haifa, the one leading up over the highest peaks of Mount Carmel and through the secluded area known as little Switzerland. It is so-called not because of any snow-covered mountains, but because of the beautifully striking and rugged terrain, blanketed by forests, through which the ribbon of road winds, .opening up on new breath-taking vistas vat every turn. A freshly paved road, to Alpert the left, in the very heart of the forest, caught our eye, and after a nod of approval from my wife, we turned in. A few miles later we arrived at one of Israel's best kept secrets—the new and well-equipped resort hotel known as Yaarot Hacarmel — Carmel Woods, Haifa: . I doubt that one Israeli in a thousand even i*Jntows of Its existence. It was built some three or four years ago In the very middle of what has since become the Caniu'l National Park, and no other construction will ever be permitted for miles around. The major part of the cost of building was paid for by the German Government, and the resort was intended to provide convalescent and recuperative f a c i l i t i e s for victims of Nazism. They have been coming, not only from Israel, but from all parts of Europe as well. Particularly for them there is a medical department which contains all the very latest . equipment i for electro-hydro and physio-therapy. The mineral baths _and pine baths and whirlpool baths are modelled after the best

How Jews Saw The Calley Trial

Between You and Me By Boris Smolar

Convention Echoes The season of conventions held by Jewish organizations is . now drawing to a close. Studying the major resolutions adopted at most of these conventions, one is inevitably impressed with the fact that they all read very much alike. There is almost no distinction, for instance, between the resolutions adopted at tbe annual meeting of the American Jewish Committee and the conventions of the American Jewish Congress, B'nai B'rith, or even the Workmen's Circle. The resolutions of each of these groups display deep interest in Israel, express concern over the fate of Soviet Jewry, deal with the needs for better Jewish education in this country, and suggest action on social and welfare problems. This indicates common Interest on the part of some national Jewish bodies in tbe same subjects . . . But does this mean also that mergers of some Jewish groups could be effected without any loss to Jewish communal life In this country?! The time is perhaps not ripe as yet to answer this question. As time marches on-the question of merging some organizations conducting the same, or similar, activities will probably come up. This is inevitable, because organized American Jewish life today is not the same as it was some 50 to 60 years ago, when many of the. presently existing Jewish organizations came into being. The ideological and other differences which sharply divided the Jews in this country a generation or two ago no longer exist.
