OmAha —Frank ColtII)erg and Paul G. Cohen, chairmen of the General Men's Division of the 1974 Omaha Jewish Philanthropies Campaign, have announced that h telethon will be held this Sunday in an effort to reach as many men as possible for their 1974 campaign pledges. "We urge all men to wait at home for a phone (^all this Sunday between 10 a.m. and 3 g^. Be prepared to tell the caller that you are committed to the survival of Israel and that your 1974 pledge will be a minimum of 3* times your gift last yepr. Expect our call; welcome it and respond generously. Israel is counting on us and we are counting on you," Goldberg said.
afe grateful to those who liave set the pace for our campaign, we cannot ease our efforts until every member of the community has made a similar commitment." Mr. Abramson noted that the Yom Kippur War in Israel necessitated early 197 4 c a mpaigns in Jewish comunities throughout the United State.s. "American Jews are being asked to give unprecedented amoimts of money and we are being asked to respond quickly so that the war-torn people of Israel will .know the extent of our help during this emergency. Our campaign sa far Indicates that Omaha will be among the top Jewish comiftunities which demonstrated responsibility toward and solidarity with the people of Israel during this critical period." ' Mr. Abramson said ttiatthe Omaha campaign is only half "i«y-TompIrt«f,- «iJff*'''!FIUiti work remains to be dona," He urged those who have not yet made a 1974 pledge to "welc 0 m e the campaign worker when he calls, prepared to make a generous gift. Come to a meeting if you are called. Help us complete this campaign as quickly as possible. The needs are urgent and the time to respond is now. "The limits of time and volunteer manpower make it impossible for everyone to be contacted personally," Mr. Abramson said. "We are, therefore^ u s i n ^ small . meetings and phone solicitation to cover the community as quickly as possible. The $4,000,000 goal can be reached if the response during the balance of the campaign matches those who have already made their commitments."
Hanukkah 1973
Next Wednesday at sundown, Jews throughout the world will begin the observance of. tiie il-day Hanukkah holiday. An ancient story, as old as recorded history, the Hanukkah story is as relevant as today's newspaper headlines. The holiday had its begimiing more than 2.000 years ago (168 B.C.E.) when the Syrian King Antiochus intensified his campaign to wipe out the Jewish people. Treasuring their religious freedom, the Jews fought back. Outnumbered by their enemies 15 to 1, the small army of faithful Jews, the Maccabees, hferoically battled the mighty Syrian armies and won the fight fol* religious freedom. The Maccabean victory over the Syrians Was the first fight for religious freedom—but not " the last. Throughout Jewish history there have been tyrants who sought to destroy the Jews. Each generation of Jews has produced its own
Maccal>ees, committed to justice and freedom, who bravely fought back again.'st the oppressors' and rekindliid th^ light of Ju(^ai$m for their* day. The retelling of the Hanukkah story each year is a reminder that the mightiest armies cannot desti'oy the spirit of the Jewish people. It is a reminder that the figlit for freedom which began with the Maccabees has been triumphant through succeeding generations of Hamans and Hitlers. It challenges us to prevail in the face of the threats of the Nassars and Sadats of our day. Hanukkah in 1973 will not be celebrated in the peaceful world we pray for; but in the celebration we are reminded of our ageless goals of peace and justice for all men. It is a time to remembfir the past and rededicate our efforts to ac^ evement of the goals in the future.
Memorie/s of ihe Paist; Hopes; for the Future
Symbolic of ^lmf(ar observances wMdr wfll be held throughout the Jewish world next week, the youngster pictured above recites the blessings over the Hanukkah candles. Tbe celebration of Hanukkah commemorates the Maccabean victory over the Syrians more than 2,090 years ago. It serves as a reminder of the historical triumph of freedom and justice over tyrants -who would oppress and destroy. It challenges each new generation to rededicate itself to these ideals; to face the trials o( the preseat with memory of the past and hope for the future.
The Reality of the Present
'New Look' for The Jewish Press Omaha—Jewish Press readers will be aware of a 'new look' to the paper beginning with the January 11 issue. It wii: i>e a cleaner, more modem-looking offset printed paper '• with clearer photographs and new, interesting typography. The change is the result of closing of the Blacker Printing Company which has been printUng the Jewish Press for the bulk of the paper's history. The ^letterpresi operation of Blacker Printing Company, printer of Uie Omaha Sun Newspapers, will be closed as a result oi the Btata'i acquisition of tiM printing pl^t for the extension «f Kennedy Freeway.
The long association the Jewish Press has Iiad with the Sim . N»wspa[>ers will be continued as the Press Joins the Sun in arrangements to have the printing done in the modem plant of the Norfolk, Nebraska Uaily Mews, The change will provide read-ers with a more attractive, readable newspaper,' It will, iMwever, necessitate strict adherence to earlier deadlines. Kffecttve immediately, the deadline (or all news and advertising copy for the Jewish Press will be Monday of the , wees o( publlcatloD. Copy reeelved after deadline will be held for tbe foUewiag week's publicallon.
As Jews preiMre te celebrate Hanukkah, recalling (he attempt by the Syrian King Antiochot to destroy the-Jews In 165 B.t'.IC,, (here are grim reminders that Jews still face Syrian threats of deslnictlon. The picture above is one of many released recently by Rep. Ri-lla S. Abzug. The pictures allegedly show the results of Syrian alrecities'against captured Israeli soldiers In the Yom Kippur War. According to Information provided Rep. Abr.ug by o((iclal Israeli sources, approximately S9 men were found bound, Mlndiolded and murdered at several Golan Heights sites. Men were repostedly (eand sbst, stabbed and wiik hetds smashed by rlHe butts. There was also evidence of torture, Includlflg eye-geuglng. The Isratll sources told Rep.

Peace Talks Threatened by Syrian Silence on POW's JERUSALEM fJTA)—The Israeli gevernment will not ent«r into peace negotiations with Syria until Damascus pvaduces • list of Israeli prisoners of war it holds and allows the Red Cross to visit them in accordance with the re<)uireroents of the Geneva Convention. That decision was submitted to the Knesset In the form of a motion presented by Defense Minister Moshe Uayan on the government's behalf. The motion also stated wat once Syria complied, Israel would insist that the first item on the agenda of talks wtth Syria should be a POW exchange. Dayan. who returned from a brief visit to the United SUtes this morning, said the POW exchange itself was not • precondition to peace talks with Syria—only the lists and visits were.

Dayan declared that one of the most important aspects of the Geneva conference is that Israel is going there to negotiate not ^only peace "but the permanent, final boundaries for Israel." He said that Israel had nothing to ask from the Arabs as far as territories are concerned.

The Aftermath of War
Revised Report Shows 2412 Israeli War Dead Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israel learned this week that it suffered higher casualties titan previously announced in the Yom Kippur War. Gen. -Hcrzl Sltafir, iiead of the manpower division at General Headquarters, released a revised casualty list showing 2412 dead—558 above the 1854 known dead announced a month ago. The new casualty list includes soldiers originally presumed missing and now definitely known to be dead; wounded soldiers who succuml>ed to their wounds since Uie first casualty list was announced; and 57 soldiers lulled on the cease-fire lines since
hostilities officially tided in mid-Oct. Israel had osiglnally listed SOB soldiers mis^g in the, Yom Kippur War. That list was reduced by 293 whose names were added to the list of dead on the basis of eye-witness accounts by felow soldiers and other evidence The remaining 215 on the missing list includes 102 soldiers missing on the Syrian front. Their present status is unknown because Syria has so far refused to submit a prisoner of war list or confirm that it holds any of the men on the missing list which Israel tiast presented to the Internatwnal Red Cross. .

[Israel Charges Egypt With Brutality Toward POWs i " ' ; ;: ^
UnHed Nations (JTA) — Israeli Ambassador Yosef Tekoaii personally submitted to Secretary General Kurt Waldheim a copy of the complaint the Israeli government has lodged with tlte International ; Red Cross charging crimes of [murder, torture, brutality and r. degradation committed oA Is' ' raeii soldiers taken prisoner by _ Egypt during the Oct. war. The document states tliat the ; investigation now l>eing con^ ducted by Israeli authorities !. into the treatment of the Israeli • POWs "has ab^ady revealed ' a shocking chronicle of inhu: man acts of cruelty perpetrated - on the Israeli soldieu who were . talcen captive by units of titeI Egyptian army—deeds unim'agt inable in relations between civ^llized naUonJ.*^ L According to the cvmplaiat. tha IsratU covenuncnl "is In Ir^thf poiiesiioa of proven eviL dence indicating beyond any j doubt that a large number of ' officers and men of the Israel • Defense Forces taken prisoner
by Egyptians troops were delit>eratel^ murdered, many of them wlUIe lying wounded and helpless." Israel charged furthemxH-e than "the many instances of murder. gfCa of brutality and calculated humiliation are the result of a planned policy of the Egyptian authorlUes." The document cited a message to Egyptian soldiers from the Egyptian Chief of Staff. Gen. Saad al Shazli, contained In a pocket booklet distributed to the men which said in part. "Kill tl»em wherever you find them and be careful that they do not trick you. for they are a people of deceivers, pretending to surrender so. that they may overcome you and kill you eaiily.

after indicating "in the clearest possible way their Intention to surrender." In another instance "Egyptian soldiers went up to the (captured) soldiers lying OB the ground aifd stabbed them with their bayonets, killing the wounded among them." The Israeli document cited testimony from returned POWs of "incessant tortures and humiliation which were the lot of the I.ssaeli prisoners of war throughout the duration of their captivity. All of them report that, notably during the early part of their captivity, they were most crueDy beaten all over their bodies ..." "The unbridled savagery of the .Egyptian soldiers is seen ntJore than anything else in the toct that they made a point of assaulting wounded prisoners more than the others," the Israeli document stated. "Many of the returned Israeli prisoners of war have testified that Egyptian soldiers kicked them cruelly on their open wounds and even spat on them instead of bandaging them. When the captives finally reached prisons hi Egypt, their Egyptian jailers made of point of competing with each other in inventing acts of brutality and humiliation such as forcing (he prisoners of war to kneel on the floor of the prison and lick it with their tongues, or urinating into the palms of their hands. The following is a representative .sample of the acts of brutality and degradation as related by the returning prisoners of war." "The Egyptian jailers made a practice of putting out the stubs of their cigarettes on tha necki and backs of the prisoners of war. Some of them would order the prisoners of war to kneel on the ground and would then sit on their shoulders and order them to crawl the length of the room with their jailers astride them. Another system of torture used by the Jailers was to perform t{ielr bodily .fur*rtion.s on the fafws and hands of the prlsOn•rs si war." • ••*,-*«-«. «>*#*;-<>*ii7J»'..

Israelis Do Not Hate Arabs
Haifa—AUza Kashi, an Israeli singer who has made a considerable reputation overseas, returned to the country to entertain the troops «r help in any other way possible. At one of her early appearances in Jerusalem she wa* deeply moved, and the entire nation watched on their television screens as the tears dropped from her eyes during an emotional rendition of a timely song. But when she finished, and turned away, the sensitive microphones in the studio also picked up a spontaneous cry from her heart, a crude curse in Arabic, against all Arabs. A few days later she wrote Alpert to the press, publicly apologizing. She explained that she had sustained war losses in her own family, and that she had just come from a hospital ward of badly wounded soldiers, and was therefore emotionally affected. She regretted that her private pain had become public. Miss Kashi may have been raised in tkU country for long enough to have learaed Arab cnrsesl but she has been away for so long that •be Is completely out of toach with tke spirit of Israel. The bitter hatred to which she gave voice hMcompletely absent from the hearts aa^ minds of most Israelis. Except possibly for a verv small minority, Israelis have no hatred for the Arabs. This has beeii tme Ihroagh all of onrs wars since 1948. despite threats of anoihilatien, acts of terrorism and atrocities. It is w^ll that this is so. for otherwise tliere would be no oossibility ever for achieving a peaceful understanding. We have thought the Arabs unreascnable. We have deplored their stubbornness in refuv ing to negotiate with us in an attempt to iron out misunderstandings. We have condemned inhuman acts of cruelty, practiced for the most
part by the Syrians—k«t we have never hated the Arabs and we have never tanght our children to hate. Even prisoners now returned from Egypt, have expressed no hatred. Some of them, telling of a beating or a "working over" when first captured, hastened to explain almost apologetically that these were the acts of individual soldiers, and that on the whole they had been well treated. The care oif our wounded in Egyptian hospitals had been careful and proper. Some of the Israeli prisoners were taken for a tour of the Pyramids shortly before being released. At no lime daring the war, despite the critical state of affalrj, were any restriction! placed on Israel's Arabs. In earlier ^ears. It may be recalled, there had been cnrfews, Umilatlotts on movement and other curtailments. Indeed, Israel's Arabs outdid them•elves from the very first days of the war In purchasing war bonds. In volunteering for essential services, and In making opeij declaration of their loyplty. We are without doubt in for very difficult days and for hard negotiations, but who in Is- , rael can forget the scenes brought us by television—of our General Aliaron Yariv Ulking pleasantly to his Egyptian counterpart; and of the Israeli soldier offering sandwiches to \jt. General Mohammed Abdul-Ghani Gamasy. Admittedly the situation is somewhat different with respect to the Syrians. The latter seem to be lacking in basic human feelings. It is no consolation to us that during the war they sliot up Druze women and children with the same callousness with which they killed bound Israeli prisoners. Actions like these stimnlate angry and excited response, but the basic fact remains: Israelis do not hate Arabs, and on that basis, tliere are grounds for hope that some day a (ennlne peace may yet be boilt.
•Hell Revisited
^^i^nschwltx: A Report on the Proceedings Agafaut Kari Mnlkn ' and Others Before the Court at Frankfurt, by Bemd Nanmann (fredericfc Praeger, Pnblishers, 4I3p.) Reviewed by Martin P. Wolf, Ph.D. On December 20, 1963 22 former SS men went before the court at Frankfurt. These were the so-called "little men," the ones who implemented Hitler's final solution. Anschwitz is the description of this trial told in descriptive narrative by a Gerpian newspaper reporter. The author makes no judgments; he merely describes the confrontation biietween the accused and the accusers, those meager few who survived liell on earth. The reader Is introduced tt»'the backgronnds of the accused: eoUege drop-out. a combat wounded doctor, a former clerk, a drnggtst, a dentist, a It-year-oU Hitler youth, a carpenter, n medical orderly who was too nearsighted for combat. Theee were the kind of men sent to Auscbwltz-Birkenau to run the camp. ; Plain, ordinary German citizens of the, lower and middle clacset. The survivors testify. "Ves, he was the doctor on the platform who decided who should live and who should walk t>ie three miles to the gas chambers." I deny it. It wasn't me, I was never on the train ^atform, the witness is confused. "These two climbed on top of gas chambers and dropped the gas crystals in. I saw it with my own eyes." The witness is incwrectj was never in Auschwitz II, I worked in the motor pool fixing trucks. And on and on it continues. More than one hundred fifty witnesses. Eath one points to the individuals accused. "He was at the thing squad wall, he beat the naked people who would not step into the chambers, he kUled i child who asked him a quesUoo." The reader's senses are bombarded by the testimony. Holoennst, extermination, mass murder, genocide become Irrelevant words. They do not describe the inhumanity, the bmtaUty, the sadism and human degradatMn. Fo«r hundred tbooaand peo|rie fat the spring of 1944. The (ortnaate ones died in t» minntet wKb the help of the Zyklon B, the lea* fortunate died a thowand dfeatlM first. Hunger, tUrst, fear, sickness—eventnally a fnjtr far vrtck death. This book is a major work on the holocaust. It is a flim of words, a story that must be continually retold unto the lai^ generations of Jews. We American Jews must search out and read books such as this. This too must be taught diligently to each succeeding generation. To really understand what happened In Auschwitz may be imposalhle for the human Intellect, but U know whaf happened te peMiMe and neeeMary. Thli,;book allows us to know. It Is part •f oar hMory.

Letters to the Editor The return of Israel to" tha 1967 boundaries would increase both the UkeUhod of the Arabs winning that war.

Holland Denies Change In Policy Toward Israel AMSTERDAM (JTA)-Foreigii Minister Max van der Stoel has relieved Charles Thurkow of his duties as Foreign Office spokesman. Thurkow has held the post for the last three years. In an official comtnunique, the Foreign Minister stated that recent events made it very difficult, if not impossible for Thurkow to continue his duties as spokesman. Last Tuesday, in a weekly talk with JournallsU, Thurkow saU that the Dutch Mideast policy'hwl changed and now demands Israel's withdrawal from all the areas it has occupied since the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. Van der Stoel strongly denied Thurkow's statement upon his return from the Euromarket Ministers' meeting in Brussels. Earlier a government spokesman said The Netherlands' Mideast policy remained "unchanged," He denied that Holland had revised tliis pplicy in favor of pre-1867 borders for Israel. He added that Thurkow did so entirely on hi» own authority and in the absence of van der Stoel.
Japan^s 'Submission' fo Araljs Protested by Jewish Leaders New York — Leaders of the American Jewish Congress picketed the Japan Camera Show last week to. protest Japan's submission" to Arab oil blackmail. "We are not calling for a boycott of Japanese goods," said'Jack M. Elkin, "We are here to protest Japan's failure to stand fast with the U.S. hi resisting pressure to fall In line with Arab policy." Urging the "proud and powerful" Japanese nation not to allow its foreign policies "to be dictated by tiny desert shiekdoms," Mr. Elildn asserted: "In threatening to break diplomatic relations with Israel, Japan has sought to appease the Arab countries that supply nearly half its petroleum. "The effect is to encourage further Arab oil blackmail Bgaiiat the United States."
The American Jewish Congresil leader continued: "The oil shortages that exist throughout the world do not derive from the Middle East conflict, no matter what the propagandists for the Arab states and the major oil companies would have you believe. "Threats of All curtailment are not a viable reason for reason for submission to this blackmail; nor will such a humiliating handing-over of Japanese sovereignty to Arab kings necessarily produce any more oil for Japanese industry. "We urge the Japanese, government not to collaborate in this effort to diminish its own sovereignty and to distort its national policies. To give in to Arab governments today would have the same result as giving in to any gang of blackmailers who will only increase their demands tomorrow."

Saudi Arabid Will Not Give Recognition to Israel Washington (JTA) - Saudi Arabia will not recognize Israel even if it concludes a peace •ettlement with its neighbors and withdraw* to the pre-June, 1967 borders, Sheikh Ahmed Yamani, the Saudian Minister of Petroleum said on the CBS "Face the Nation" television program Sunday. Yamani drew a distinction between Israel's immediate neighbors and other Arab countriea. He said that if Israel withdraws from all of the Arab territories, including East Jerusalem, under the terms t)f Resolution 242, "what matters is that the countries that surround Israel" recognize it and its borders. For those far away, It is not important, he said,' adding, it is "not important or, significant for all Aralv countries to recognize and live ia peace with tliem" (the Israelis).
