lAllon: Severe Test in UN Session ByVIUhakShariU

TEL AVIV (JTA) ! Foreign Minister Yigal Allon lefl for New York to head Israel's delegation to the United Nations after warning (hat Israel faces its moat difficult and severe test at the ZMh seuion of the General [ Assembly. Allon was referring to the inclusion of the "Palestine : Question" on the Asscmt>ly'8 'agenda as a separate item ^^and the presence of the : Palestine Liberstion Organlialion at the session. He said that with the ; present composition of the . UN, there was no chance to . prevent a discussion of the Palestine Question but that Israel, nevertheless, will ' makeevery effort to persuade

member nations against t. Accordl*^ to Allen, the PU>'i okjectlvc Is ••( to diicvit Ike rights aad proUemi of the PalesUnbas but (• lorpedt tftortt aew iwder way far a peaceful •etilemeat of (ke Middle East Manict "If the PLO lucceeds in bringing about the adoption of anti-Israel resolutions, this can totally undermine the efforts being made now for a political setUemtent," Alton Mid. Allon said that Israel has an interest in solving the Palestinian problem which is both just and in Israel's inlerests. But this concerns a genuine Palestinian identity, not the PLX), he said. The Foreign Minister, who

is also Israel's Deputy Premier, expressed concern that Jordan might carry out its threat to boycott the Geneva peace conference on the Middle East if the Arab summit meeting ih Rabat recognizes the PLO as the sole representative of the Palestinian Arabs. Isrsel and (kc United States agree that a solution to the PalesUae idkntity ikouid be reacked Ihroogh liraellJordanlan negotiations, AIIM said. He stated that the Egyptian and Syrian recognition of the PLO as spokesman for all Palestinians was directed against Jordan and against peace. He said he would raise the problem with Secretary of

Slate Henry A. Kissinger when they meet during his visit to Ihe U.S. Allon added that he had no plans to meet Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko. King Hussein of Jordan refused to attend a conference with Egypt, Syria and the PLO in Cairo and froze all of his government's activities in connection with the Genva conference. Amman said, however, that the freeze was only temporary and would depend on tlie outcome of the Rabat meeting Oct. 26.

ByWilliaatfiaphirc UNITED NATIONS (JAT) —Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger declared, "The urgent pollUcal responsibility of our era is to resolve conflicts without war." Addressing the ZMh annual session of the General Assemble, he told the 138 member nations that it was in the common interest of each of them "(hat local conflibta be resolved short of force and Ibair root causes rcroovod by poUUeal maana." However, he. cautioned

againat "attenpls to resolve all issues at one time" because "progress toward peace can be thwarted by aslung too much as surely as by asUng too little.. .the world community can help resolve chronic conflicts, but exaggerated expectation will prevent essential acconunodatins among the paraes," Kissinger said. In his address, Kissinger expressed deep concern over tiM prallfaratkin of nuclear weapons "as If restraint were

automatic," and implied that there was danger even in the supply of nuclear materials far peaceful purposes to nonnuclear nations. KiMinger spoke at length atKwt the oil problem and its 'global ramifications. He attributed the high cos) of oil not to an actural shortage, or to economic fa tors or to the free interplay of supply and demand but to "deliberaie decisions lo restrict prockJCtiM and mahrtaln an artifkUl price level."

Sister Gillen Says:

"Let Them Live as Jews.. / OMAHA - "Let them live u Jews, or let them leave so thai they can go to a land where they can live as Jews." Thai has becoihe a watchword of the National Inlerreligious Task Force on Soviet Jewry — a task force headed by a Catholic nun who wears a Siar of David around her neck. The nun Is Sister Ann Gillen,' whose efforts on behalf of Soviet Jewry have earned national headlines fibr wM speak in Omaha at the new Jewish Commnnlly (ester at» p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1, Hrr Ulk. "I Keel I Have Is Speak for the Soviet Jew*". Is belag sponsored by the (Imaha CommilUr for Soviet Jewry. An educator with degrees in English and history. SIsler GiUen says, "Education is an exodus movement, and this exodus of the Soviet Jews is a tremendous education for us all. "Our cities have i^ecome our classrooms — we have so much 10 learn from one another, about one another. And we can learn this while we work logelher for the Soviei Jews" In Denver. Sister Gillen offered two reasons for her efforts: first, "her education provided her with a social

tUslerAnnCiiUcn conscience which won'l let her resi in the face of the Huppression of human righis." and second, because "II is simpler to make history than 10 teach il." She has made one visit lo Russia and said she supports ihe Jackson amendment, which seeks lo restrain trade between Ihe United Slates and Kusaia If the Soviets don'l loosen their emigration policies. In Loi Angeles. Sister (iilb>n cslled Soviet Jews ••prisaners of conscience" and pxplsined hrr mrdallk>n bear* Ihr namf of • Soviet H-rvinx a IS-year if ntrace for iillegrd Involvement In a It7f airplane hijacking attempt at

Leningrad. She hoped to racsuragr cklMrrn to write their »app«rt lo Soviet Jewish chlMrrn. The B'nai B'rilh Mesaenger of Los Angeles reported, "In a iribule to the Jewish community, she states, 'the Jewish community is leaching how to free people by building public opinion." ' She quoted famous exiled Sovlel author Alexander Solzhenitseyn as saying that publicity is a form of life insurance for Soviei citizens and has saved many. In Seattle, speaking in Ruppori of the Jackson amendment, Sister Gillen said: "It's in the best interest of us as American citizens to continue Ihe tradition that we have of exacting concerna for uppressed people where we are conferring favors." The Omaha Chapter of Women's ORT will hold a reception following Sister Gillen's talk, which will include a queslion-and-antwer session. Persons needing transportation lo and from the JCC for the program are asked to call Ihe office of Howard Weinsleln.

Our _' spiritual leaders are not included in Ihe Center's proposal. 2. By having one commillee. under ihe Federation, more efficient use can be made of ' staff and of the budgetary process. Conflicls can be eliminated and proper •• priorities more easily set. 3. By giving Ihe f Cullural Committee departmental status, the Federation would recognize thai Jewish B« whare the action Isculture is as important as shopping. shows, fun-in its other departments, •ithar Wast Omaha or in such as the Press, the Council Bluffs (2 minutes Center and the Library. from Downtown Omaha). 4, The Cultural Committee's proposal also Colof TVIn evefy room... insures thai philanlhropic "pamptr" panels beside ovsr-sizad bads... indoor fund* support only Jewish pool , . . loungas . . . programming and do not saunas . . . gam* room go lo Klivilies (such) as and maating room* . . . piapo and ballet lessons, riflhi whara tha action isl which are to be entirely nkikHtiir seif-Mipporting. lsslMii/|rMp •Mtlag iHtlalt , II is said that the Cultural Commiltee's proposal will ^^taep Ihe Center from being ^Jewish, but the contrary is true.

Jewish community, including those who do not cha«s« to. join Ihe Centei*, and b) the expertise of our Committee, at shown by our successful programs over the past five years. Hence I strenuously oppose the recent proposal by the Center to downgrade our committee by making il a mere subcommittee of Ihe Center. However, I understand Ihe feelings of Mrs. Ruth KaUman (chairman of Ihe Cullural and Prrforming Arts Committee of the Center) and Mr. Morley Zipuriky (president of the Jewish Federation), who were al Ihe committee meeting, that there would be little reason for many people to Join the Center il it excluded cultural activities from its program. Since the Center depends on Ihe subscriptions of its members, this would jeopardize its smooth running. Also, our committee has little expertise in general arts. I therefore agree only partly with Ihe resolution passed by our committee, in reaction lo the Center's proposal. I suggest that those programs which are not essentially Jewish should continue lo be run by the Center, as part of the services lo its members. Plays aad films iboald be put on by the Center (even If they have Jewish content). Arts classes, e.g. paintInK, pottery, and dancing, (hoold have nothing lo do with our committee. However, all essentially Jewish activities, especially adult education classes.

lectures, imported cultural events, and Israel Independence Day celebrations (as listed by Al ' Crounse) should be run, preferably al Ihe Center, by Ihe Cultural Commillee. These events should, as always, be open lo everyone. The Center staff should give us full support, or else we should have our own employee. Also, the Cultural Commillee should stay the same size as il Is now, with representatives from all Jewish organizations in Omaha, and not be enlarged las proposed.) If not, it will become unwieldy and most decisions will be made by its subcommittees. Surely with auch a compromise approach we can all work together, build up Jewish culture and institutions in this city, and each contribute what he is best able to contribute. Shanah Tovah.

Aquatics Notebook By Gary Jaattcb JCC Aquatics Dbvctor Canae Trip Closes Samraer

Thirteen adventurous souls left the JCC on a Friday afternoon en route to an exciting trip down the Niobrara River. Ranging in skill trom novice to expert, and in age from 10 lo 40, the canoeists put in at the Wildlife Refuge jusi outside ValenUne, Neb. They had near-perfecl weather throughout, and they completed their trip on Sunday, landing at Rocky Ford. 2< miles downstream. Friday night was spent under the stars al Merrit Reservoir. The next night the group camped al the fantastic Smith Palls, which offers an icy-coM waterfall. After four hours of canoeing, a few moments by Ihe cold spray of the falls rejuvenated anyone brave enough to stand under it. ' Everyone, from the youngest to the oklesi, shared

in Ihe many camping tasta: wood gathering. food preparatidi»,).;kAoking and cleaning up. The interest and excitement of the trip was not in Ihe camping alone. The 8-10 mph current kepi everyone moving briskly and a number of little rapids challenged the inexperienced and beautiful Nebraaka s^fnery complimented the adventure. Jeff Parker was the guide for the trip and Gary Javilch was the director. Because of Ihe great response, another trip is being planned for next Spring.
