Israel Rejects Jordanian King's "oa%choomi^^7or'' l>emand for Israeii Witlidrawal ^^ '^ °° "^^'" \
WASHINGTON (JTA) SacreUry o( State Henry A. , Kiffinger is expected to ' return to the Middle East to attempt to work out a ' disengagement agreement between Israel and Jordan as he ittd batwtM Israel and . Syria and Egypt. This was the ^^view in United States , government circles as King Hussein of Jordan ended ' tliree days of talks witii '< President Ford and Kissinger . which were termed as a : "constructive contriliutlon" toward the next stage of f oagotialions for a Middle \ East peace settlement. \ In a Joint statement issued t by Ford and Hussein, 'the President stressed the » continuity of t) .S. policy in the ; Middle East and affirmed ^ that the U. S. will continue iu ; determined efforts to help ' achieve a peace settlement in the area. The communique revealed X that the Joint commission on ; aid to Jordan will sponsor a meeting on economic devekipment, trade and invtitmeots before the end tA
the year to explore the poasiblity of private American investments in Jordan's economic development. The commiaaion will also discuss soon military and supply problems and review the continuation of American assistance to Jordan's armed farces. IB an interview, Hasseb said he would net return to the Gcnevs peace confcresce unless there is some progress toward an Israeli pulltaek from the West Bank. He rejected the so-called Alloa Plan under which Jordan woHid get admlalstrative coalrol of the West Bsak while Israel woald coetlBMe to malntaia troops there. But Hussein stressed that he would not negotiate for Israeli withdrawal only to turn the West Bank over to the Palestine Liberation Organization. Israeli Keply Israel has rejected and will reject the Jordanian demand for an IsraeU withdrawal from the Jordan River as part
of what Jordan terms "disengagement of forces." This was stated by the Foreign Ministry in reaction to the joint statement by Ford and Hussein issued In Waahington. Foreign Ministry spokesman, replying to questions l>y reporters on Israel's reaction to the Joint communique, said: "The government of Israel welcomes the declaration of the l).S. President that his government would persevere in its efforts for the attainment of a Just and durable peace in our region. The President also emphasized the continuity of the American foreign policy on this subject, as on others." A Foreign Ministry spokesman noted that in the Joint statement published in Jerusalem at the conclusion of his visit in lyael, Nixon had reiterated the American commitments regarding Israel's security and her right to exiat within secure borders.

Drama on 5th Avenue Shows Soviet' NEW YORK (JTA) - A ' crowd of lunch-time onlookers In front of the New York : Public Library on Fifth \ Avenue witnessed a "theater ; of the absurd" Aug. 15. It was . a turreaUat dramatization of : "justice" In the Soviet Union performed by seven New York suge to call public attention to s "complete mockery of justice" taking ' place at that hour in Moscow \ where the trial of Victor ^ Polsky was scheduled to \ begin. However, la Moscow, the t trial «f Pelsfcy was psstpooed f withoat aay explaaatien. ^ accordtag to the Natlsaal i!. Coafsfeacc sa Soviet Jewry.
Pelsky, a noted Jewish physktst, sad a dissident sad activist, has been charged with "reckless drivfaig." Kings County District Attorney Eugene Gold, chairman of the Greater New York Conference on Soviet Jewry, the group that sponsored the demonstration, saw the pending Moscow trial as nothing less than a cruel form of harassment of Polsky for applying tor a visa to emigrate to Israel. "The Polsky case is the first in a new aeries of trials that will be conducted by the Soviets in a stepped-up campaign to terrorize countless other Jews and diacourage them from attempting to
emigrate^' said GM, Introducing the tableau on the Public Library steps. Polsky, who specializes in photo-electronics and has 12 patents to his credit, applied for an exit visa in IMS. He was fired from his Job, labled an enemy of the state and hounded by police ever since, a Conference spokesman said. He Is now accuaed of running down a 19-year-okl Russian woman, Tatyana Aleksandrovna Zhukova, the daughter of a Soviet official. In fact. Gold explained, the "victim" threw herself In front of Polsky's car in a suicide attempt after quarreling with her parents.
Is prepared, as It has repeatedly declared, to strive for a peace settlement with Jordan. Israel, however, has rejected and will reject" the Jordanian demand for an IsraeU withdrawal from the Jordan River as part of what Jerdaa terms "dlsengagesieat of farces." The Foreign Ministry spokesman sdded: "Reference to this subject in the statement by President Ford and King Huasein does not alter Israel's stand."

^eth Israel Synagogue's New Cantor Marx Brothers'FUpyOpens Out for Justice With a Smile Ctossic Movie Series at JCC By Richard Peart OMAHA — Cantor Leo VMtman, the new Chazan at Beth Israel Synagogue, hai •ever l>een afraid to speak out Ibr justice. i Take, for Inataoce, the time Ifee Nazis hanged him for Irrtting an anti-Hitler poem. ' The rope broke and the Nazi in charge said, "Congratulations, dog. Under laternational law, a man bannot be haiiged twice for ihe same crime." ^The future cantor looked Ibe man in the eye and said Ibmly, "I didn't know you Maxis observed any law." : Or, more rcceally, the time fce refaaed lo speak aloud the last few wards of his l^mertcan citizenship oath — ^•liberty and )iisti«e for all." , The judge asked Uie cantor Jvhy he hadn't spoken those Vords and he replied, "There |i neither liberty nor justice lor all, even in this country." I About a year later, acjeording to the story in the Capital Times newspaper of iMadiaon, Wise, the cantor got • parking ticket for leaving ^ car all day in a two-hour parking zone on a Saturday. He happened to face the •ame judge, who asked Fettman why~iie hadn't paid the ticket. The cantor reminded the judge atxiut tlie ^th incident and said he Wanted to sec if there was Justice for all, because •aturday is Shabbos, The judge dismissed the 1-Cantor Fettman, who bomes to Omaha from Beth Urael Center in Madison, Madily admits — with a EhucUe — that he is a ••radicar'. "I sec this country as while PnMestaat — ia MadlsM, for

" However, says Cantor Fettman, "Here I don't think I will be mixing in this (social battles) because I am too busy with the synagogue, and I tike it." Besides, he laughed, "I don't have a beard anymore — I shaved it Friday. I fed younger (he's
«)."
The cantor said he likes Omaha's Beth Israel because it is orthodox (Madison's Beth Israel is conservative) and because of the musical opportunities here — the men's choir for holidays and late Friday night services; the women's choral group and the junior choir "which will participate city-wide.
hopefully." " ~~~ "And I will be fai charge sf Bar and Bat Mllivah clasacs and will help teach the Helirew classes (grades ( and Tl." He noted there were only 140 families in his Madiaon congregation as oppoaed to over 800 here. The new cantor, a native of Hungary who was in a number of Nazi concentration and labor camps during Worid War II, says tha^ humor is "part of my life and my teaching. Even now, the girls in our office think twice before answering one of my questions" liecause the question may be "loaded." And another bit of the Fettman warmth and humor: "I Itte Omaha. I've fswMl the people very warm here — eipecially in Jaly aad Aagastl" The cantor and his wife, Annette, have six children. They are Aviva, married to a New York rabbinical student: Renana, a graduate of Wisconsin University now working in Boston; Miriam, now attending a Uibavitcher school in New York; Martin, 20, a printer, living in Omaha; and Omaha high school students Jack, 17, a senior, and Rachel, 14, a freshman. Mrs. Fettman is an artist who plans to show some of her work at the Jewish Community Center. Cantor Fettman has recently been selected for inclusion in the first edition of "Who's Who in Religion". He trained as a cantor a t Yeshiva Maor Magola and studied music at McGill University, Iwth in Montreal, Canada.

post Office Box 37435 HAIFA — There has been ;«>me unhappliieu in Israel iaboMt the handling of Arab terrorism. Some Israelis beli«v« that the Klryat Ithmone and Maalot IVuwsacres could have been ivoided If different Uctics "iad been used. And sonne feel the trouble lie< in our failure to anticipate such attacks. ; Instead s( waUlag until 'tMter «r«m«i and children kave been b«tcbered. and Ihen itriUng back wllk a paaitive raid. Israel should ;aieve finl. by lecUng out and lettroylng the headquarters and the trainhig ground! of tkc tcrrortstt, wherever they •lajr be. F^irlhermore, there is a frustration caused by the ineffectivenesa of our appeals ID world opinion. Although Lebanon and Syria harbor the terrorists, and provide them With both encouragement and training facilities, the lovemments of these states can formally disavow any 'responsibility for the action of the murderers because Ibey acted as private individual*, on their own initiative. Israelis who think this way "are now orgtnlting to translate their ideas into action. A .(roup of former army ofdears, who served on the Egyptian side of the Canal during the Yom Kippur War, and who learned by experience that the way to fight .and win is to use daring and unorthodox methods, have called upon war veterans, at well as soldiers atill on active , duty, to volunteer to Join their raniB. : They propose to set up a q)ecial military unit which Is called YuU. Inltlab of the
Hebrew phrase "Yayhareg V'Lo Vaavor", freely translated as "Kill them before they get through", or in another version, "Stop them dead". Leader of the group is a mysterious figure Imown only by his first name, as Lieutenant Eitan. Yuli would operate with Qw knowledge of the Israel government, but would not be responsible to it. Hence Israel conid lisae the ssnie disclaimers as Syria sad Lebanon. The group would wear no uniform or military insignia. The members would have their internal organiiation and would seek to ferret out terrorists, wherever they may be, and destroy them before they have opportunity to murder Israeli civilians. Their ads to this effect have appeared In the Hebrew press. Yall has come In for Us share of ditapproval and condemnallofl, as well as support. The opposltfoa Is bssed on a annber af argnmenls. Far one thing. Ibis is not the Iirael way of deWg tbhigs. aad there is always grave risk that innocent people Biiy be killed on the ether iMe. Next. Ihto eoanlry can not consent t« the establlfhmeni of private mlUtary anita. Yull't asaaoKa woald tarn «a into aggressors, and we woald lone all snpport abroad. There Is also the grave danger that there might be a eataitrepkic failure on one tH these independent raids, and the Israel army woald kave to lalervene on a large scsle to rescnc the "heroes".

In 1906, an article on the Jews of Omaha, written by Nathan Bernstein, was printed in the Chicago-based publication, the Reform Advocate. The following is Bernstein's story of one Omaha immigrant, Abraham B. Alpirn, who was born in RUHia in 1873 and was selfsupporting by the age of 10. "In the year IWl, he made up his mind to come to America. When crossing the Russian frontier to Austria, the traveler was stopped by the Austrian authorities. At this lime Russian immigrants were not allowed to crosa through Austria on account of a disease rife among the Russian people. "Having spent considerable money in getting ready for the trip to this country he, made up his mind not to turn back Ibut to go through another channel, therefore he arranged with the same guide to have a carriage waiting him at the gale on the Austrian side and traveled to a small station in Austria. "Upon arrival at the station he was Just in time to step on the train and there wei^fe no questions asked. "The traveling by rail in Austria was not like the Pullman car service In this country. There were no seals and no berths. "If a person wished to sit down, he placed some of bis wearing apparel on the floor. If the traveler wished to recline, the floor was also used with the arm doubled up under the head for a pillow. The floor was not a hard uncomfortable bed as It was made from soft pine. "Finally reaching the German gate at a town called Mislovitz between Austria and Germany, the question was again raised, 'Where from and where to?' There were several leaving at this station and aa the leaders were questioned, Mr. Alplm overheard the conversation and immediately got on a moving train and rode back aeveral stations in Austria to a town called Demvitch. "While remaining here it was necessary to make expauces and he therefore

obtained a position in a lumber yard, until such time as the ban against Russian immigrants was lifted. "This information could not be obtained in Demvitch and the traveler made a trip to Cracow. From this point he traveled toward Germany, landing in Berlin. "The German country looked prosperous and Inviting and he made up his mind to remain in Germany but after a week's stay became discouraged and felt the United States was the country where he wished to go."

Dear Mom, Dad. aad Mark: We have done so much in the past week. Last Thursday we visited an ancient Israeli fortress that was I'h miles from the Lebanese border. Don't worry, there was a barbed wire fence between the borders. While we are up north, in the GaliUee, we carry Iwo guns with us constantly. The roads we have travelled on this past week were Just opened to traffic this week. You don't have to worry, because Thursday we leave for Tel Aviv and Haifa, and the Moshav. We will be able to get rid of the guns then. Back to last Thursday; we ale lunch and hiivd in a beautiful nature reserve forest. Everything here reminds me so much of Sun Valley. Up near the Golan are mountain streams Just like we've seen in Sun Valley. We went swimming in a sllmey water hole called Banias. Then we went to Klryat Shmons and spoke with a man concerning (he terrorism that occurred here a few moatbi ago. Friday we took our bus truck (0 the lop of a mountain, called Arbel. We were only supposed to climb down, but the truck didn't make it to the lop so we walked halfway up and tMn climbed down the other side. You wotild die if you saw us climbing down. We all felt like real mountaineers that day. The place we are staying, Hodayol, is very othodox, so when we had services, the girls had to sit in a cage in the back room. Saturday night we sent for a boatride on the Kinnerett, the Sea of Galilee. It was really nice out and I have never seen so many stars in my life. Afterwards we walked around the city of Tiberias. Sunday we visited the Ghetto Fighters' Museum — lAchamel Haget'ol. It showed the entire period of Holocaust. It was really displayed nicely but was very depressing. Thai afternoon we swam in (he Mediterranean Sea. It was nice. Then we visited some beautiful caves formed by (he water. It was called Rosh Hanlkra and stood 10 feel away from the Lebanese border. That night some Israeli kids came over from a nearby kibbutz to have a campfire and sing with us. It was a lot of fun. Monday we visited a kil>butz where our Israeli tour guide has a friend. II used to be Syrian ground until after the Six-Day War. There were ruins surrounding this kibbutz from old Syrian towns. It's a weird feeling to know you are at places where you have seen war going on on television. Then we heard a speaker at a kibbutz call Ein Gev. The man'was Tzur, the editor of
JERUSALEM - One day recently, two Dutch padres, members of (he Reformed Church in the Netherlands, walked into the office of Or Kalman J. Mann, directorgeneral of the Hadassah Medical Organization, and preaenled him with a check for 75,000 guiklers — over $28,000. The Rev. G. A. Zijderveld of Middleburg and Evangelist J. Kwantes of Almaar-Oudorp (old Dr. Mann that the sum was collected by Rev. Ziderveld from Christian congregations in the Netherlands during and after (he Yom Kippur War. They specified that the money be used for the Burns Unit and that a small plaque read: "Balm in Gilcad from a hundred Christian congregations in Holland." Dr. Mann responded: "II is difficull for me to tell you how very deeply moved we were to receive this expression of friendship and sympathy at this very difficull time, when we somelimes feel that the whole world is against us. We pray that (he lime will not be far off when all our efforts can be directed to peaceful pursuits and there will be friendship between all nations." iM r)5ok""SeveniJi*lJay'.'' He"
spoke on (he views of the Israelis after each war. It was very interesting. I bet you are wondering when we sleep. Don't ask me because I don't really know. We go (o bed between 1 and 2 a.m. and get up between 6 and 7a.m. Tomorrow rooming we are getting up at 5 c'clock to go on an archeological dig. It should be very interesting and hot. I guess I'll end here so I can get some sleep tonight. I'm very, very homesick but also having the greatest time of my life! Keep writing! Love and miss you all, Robbi THANK YOU. OMAHA! Today, in fact tonight, we will board El Al, to London with a short stay there, possibly Denmark and Holland, and on Aug. 27 we will land in Ben Gurioa Airport (in Israel) as Ollm Hadashim (new immigrants). But more on this at a future date. Right now It's very, very Important that the Omaha Jewish Conrounity know how we feel about our 4 years la the cUy. At least it's important for us to let yon know that we left with a very warm. Intimate relationship with not only so many dear good people, but also with a tender feeling of Jewish Community affllUtkm. At this moment I have yet much unfinished correspondence, twt I cannot leave the country without my Philanthropies pledge paid up as promised, and our thanks and appreciation for so much kindness extended to us especially the last weeks of our move. The meals taken with so many dear friends and acquaintances, the offers of assistaiKe in the Aliyah, and that last day when friends continued to drop in to say Shalom and to actually help in last minutes pressured packing — it was fantastic! With best wishes for a good life and fruitful Jewish eandeavors, we remain Rosalie and Phil Grad

Jewish Quiz Box | BY RABBI DR. SAMUEL J. POX QUESTION: Why does Jewish tradiUon consider the first seven days after the marriage as a special week for bride and groom? ANSWER: The rabbis seem to derive this from two sources in the Bible. One source is the story of Jacob and Laban where Laban tells Jacob to fill out the period of seven after Jacob married Leah (Genesis), the other is the story of Samson who journeyed to the land of the Philistines where he took himself a bride and celebrated for seven days. Among traditional Jews a feast is made each day for the couple when there are new visitors present and the nuptial blessings are repeated each day. Generally speaking, some compare this seven-day period to the seven-day holiday period of Passover and Succoth. The first week or marriage is like < holMay for the bride and groom. Some contrast it with the seven days of mourning called shivah. Apparently every intensely emotional experience requires a full week to allow the individual to adjust to his new status whether it is as a mourner or marriage celebrant, or a celebrant of a Joyous holiday. QUESTION: Why is a divorced woman not allowed to marry for a period of ninety days after the divorce? ANSWER: The reason for this is a very practical one. The woman might have become pregnant from the first husband. Without such a waiting period one could have some doubt as to who is the father of the child. Thus the waiting period allows a clarification that the next child would normally be the child of the second husband.
