Israel Is Facing Agonizing Decision ByDatvdLaadMi JERUSALEM (JTA)-The Israeli Cabinet decided Monday not to decide—yet— whether to conclude an Interim settlement with Egypt. Ambassador Simcha OInltz, who had t>een called in (or consultations, was sent back to Washington to elicit further Information from Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger on Egypt's settlement terms. Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Kissinger are to meet In West Germany Saturday to discuss an interim pact.
The Cabinet ministers felt they still did not posssess all the details they wanted before buckling down to their fateful task: deciding whether to accept or reject the Egyptian terms which have been heavily endorsed both by the secretary and by President Ford himself. But the final decision will not be deferred for long. Premier Yitzhak Rabin left Wednesday for Germany for a four-day official visit, returning before the weekend. Next Sunday the Cabinet will meet again, and by then
the required additional information Is expected to be in—and the decision-making process will begin in earnest. The "basic problem facing the Cabinet," a highly placed source here explained this week. Is whether to enter into "sharp confrontation" with the U.S. now, or whether to postpone the confrontation for two or three years. The confrontation, the high source said, was ultimately unavoidable—because the U.S. had consistently opposed, and still opposes, Israel's demands for substantial

Time—And Bikur Chollm —Keep Marching On By Rlcbard Pearl OMAHA — They don't have many meetings and they don't have the young, energetic, devoted Jewish women which they need. But what they have Is a lot of heart and a lot of good Jewish . JradlUon —and they have earned much apprcclatlfth from the residents at the Dr. Philip Sher Home (or the Aged and others. "They" are the women of BIkur Chollm — which means, in Hebrew, "visiting the Sick" and which means, in Omaha, the longtime, devoted group of women dedicated to not only visiting but caring for the sick and needy at the Home and elsewhere. In their first meeting in a year, a luncheon session at the Home, Mary Wine guided the group through a session replete with heart-warming accomplishments and memories. The dialogue showed clearly that one of the holiest commandments was being carried out and that Jewish tradition, too, was quite alive and healthy, albeit in need of some young blood. "What «•*¥• «Dt," Mid Mary, wtw to tbe wUa of Jaka WIM, "to about IMO hi the treawry and wa have ben abto io undarwrita koabar meat tar Una (amlUaa, pravlda Cndt Ibr the Dr. SherSiiMtah aiiilhrirtt^rwTPllwfar thePr.

Mary, thinking back, remembered how her father, the late Shiomo Weinstein, had to take oxygen through a tube In his nose. He complained that the hose from the tank hurt. And Mwiie Zalkin had helped Mary get an oxygen tent lor the Home, by giving the entire Zalkin house over to a card party — "tables upstairs and down, sandwiches, coffee..." someone recalled. "We were always trying to think of something different,r said Mary of BC's fundraising efforts. She recalled how the elevator estimate had gone from r.OOO, to ti2,000, to 117,000 - It was $28,000 when we finally put the elevator In," she said. In those days, the Jewish Federation of Omaha bought an Item and BIkur Collm paid It back, through rallies, card parties, whatever. Recently an afghan was donated by Mrs. Sam Ban, s BC member, and $250 in raffle tickets was raised by Mrs. Anna Rundell, a Sher resident. "We went to Omaha U. with Items which the ladles made, to sdl them at a Senior Citizens Fair there," related Mary of another Incident, "I remember one woman came up and asked, 'Who are you selling for?' I told her the Dr. Sher Home lor the Jewish elderly and she walked away." The Jews still have to rely on themselves (or help, just like always, Mary said. Mrs. Wbie has been president of BIkur Chollm 20 years now. "I don't want the organization to die," she said. "The younger ones are not interested, and our older ladles are getting older. 1 needsupport. "The hardest part Is to get the ladles ... If the younger ladies would come ... A lot of women want to dissolve BIkur Cholim," she said. "noaa who ot4ect (to BC) hava tor|Dlt«a all that BC hat dona tar the Hone," tatartadad Ida Potarii, aaothH' hmgltaaa manbar.

border changes In an overall peace. I( there is no interim agreement with Egypt now, then the U.S. will call, together with the Soviet Union, for a resumption of the Geneva peace conference, and will present there Its own overall peace plan. This has been made abundantly clear to Israel by both Ford and Kissinger. Israel knows enough of what the overall U.S. peace plan will entail to have extreme misgiving' over its presentation. The thrust of Israel's dialogue with the U.S. In connection with the interim settlement negotiations has been aimed at ensuring that Washington will not proceed, once an Interim settlement has been concluded, to draw up an overall settlement plan "without coordination" with Jerusalem.

OMAHA - Over $4,000 has t>een donated to the Omaha B'nal B'rith Disaster Fund to date, according to Steven J. Riekes, Omaha attorney and B'nal B'rith district board member.

Aliyah Crisis Has Different Meanings By Oreer Fay Carinnan JERUSALEM (AJPA) The term "Aliyah crisis", in frequent use in the Israeli vocabulary, doesn't always mean the same thing. To Jewish Agency officials. In particular Jewish Agency Chairman PInchas Sapir, it means the alarming drop In Aliyah figures. To Israelis, anticipating
more olim from the Soviet Union, It has meant longer waiting period for housing. Young couples will once again have to stand aside to make room (or the new immigrant. To Western immigrants, it has a completely different connotation. Their crisis Is the decision whether to stay or to return to the countries of their origin. This applies par-
Women's Campaign 'Almost Completed' OMAHA — "I am delighted to announce that the 197S Women's Division Philanthropies Campaign Is almost 100 per cent completed," said Caryl Greenberg, campaign chairman, thto wack. "To date, (he women have raised over $290,000. "The success Is due to the outstanding efforts of everyone Involved In the campaign," Mrs. Greenberg said.
ticularly to American Immigrants who cannot cope with Israeli bureaucracy and the radical change in living standards. But their major problem Is that they cannot forget that they are Americans. Tlie majority live in tm' migrant areaa where they fraternize with people from Eni^iab-apeaklng countries. They obtain employment in ]oba where they have to use a minimum of Hebrew. "Hiey attend English language lectures and sendnars.. .and then wonder why they are not being aooeptad 1^ IsraelU. Many such Immigrants are renting out their aprtments and returning home—some on temporary basis; others for keeps. But the most Important determination in whether an Immigrant stays or not Is the
security of housing and employment. Nonetheless, Israel still maintains that she wants a minimum o( 100,000 immigrants per year. As Harry Rosen, advisior to the Chairman o( the Jewish Agency explains it, "Vou have to understand what numbers mean to Israel. In Europe, a country's neighbors are its natural markets from the' point of view of pure economics. Israel has to manufacture for a small market at home and must compete on world markets with Industrial giants. "We need skilled people to manufacture things to sell abroad to get foreign currency. Because Israel Is a country with very (ew natural resources, we have to import (Continued on Page 2)

The Strange Case of Abba Eban HAIFA - Abba Eban's many friends and admirers , ovenMM have been puzzled by his recent outbursts of criticism against liis own colleagues and fellow party members. It seems strange that one wtM for eight years was Foreign Minister, and a leader ' in the formulation of Israel's foreign policy, should suddenly find that his own party is all wrong in its policies. To understand the complex political situation, one must look into the background. II bat been known tHat the euBUHUUi esteem is which Ebai^ls held by Jews overseas is not fully shared by the citizens of Israel. Indeed, Eban himself has niggestetl Mat If the Jew< of OK piaq)ora could vote in Israel's 'atecttans, his political future «aaid be assured.

Soon after Ike creattan of the state ha was projediidhito his tuiaiant rate as statesman and dlpiamat. He was an apolitical figure.
Until he resigned as ambassador to the U.S and returned to Israel in 1960. it was not even known to which of the Israel political parlies he would adhere. I believe there was much political wooing.

When Lyova EUav ItMind hhnaelf at odds with fim policies of the Labor Party, he took the honorabte ooirse of resigning frsm the party and of seeking to win new supporters here. Eban, on the other hand, in turning against his erstwhile colleagues has apparently directed his appeal to his overseas "constituents" Even in Israel It is not accepted procedure to campaign for high political post here by appealing to Jews abroad and citing their support to assure him a "leading voice" in the formulatkw of policy. Some here have otMerved that at a time when heads were rolling In the after-math of the Yom Kippur War and reputations were being blackened, the Israel public was tolerant of the man who for eight years was architect of the country's foreign policy ~ a policy which ended in absolute disaster in Africa, in steady erosion In Latin America and in loss of support from some of our best frelnds In Europe. It certainly comes In 111 grace for Abba Eban, at a time like this, to point a finger at Yitzhak Rabin. Eban Is a man of many talents, and if he has his weaknesses, who does not? We hope he will learn to play the game of politics more skilfully, and will remember that government Is a team. There are many services which he can still render to his people.

• II i€'lro%|»<><l "Jew and GentUe — A Chiisttan Lady Weds a JewUh Gentleman," was a headline in the BEE in 1873 The article reported a large group in attendance at Meyer's Music Hall to witness the marriage of "a former Christian lady," Emma Braps, to Mr. S. Reichzensteln. "After a prayer," the paper stated, "the priest askeid the bride if she renounced the Christian religion, and professed a belief in the Jewish faith" ' "Upon replying that she did, the marriage was then performed according to the custom of the Jews, and the new name of Sarah was given to the bride " The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. Hertzman, who briefly served the Jewish community of Council Bluffs. In 1888 It was reported that the Amstein child was taken ill loDowIng circumcision and died from an overdose of morphine. Charges were later
riled against a doctor and a druggist in connection with the case. The BEE reported in 1873 that "the Jewish rite of circumcision was performed yesterday upon the son of Mr. J. Newman, at his residence on Twelfth Street, by the Rev. E. Hertzman, of Council Bluffs."

Lot of Sweet Labor Goes into ^Sweet Charity OMAHA - There's a lot of work Involved In making a productloif like "Sweet Charity", says the director of the Jewish Community Center's cultural and fine arts department. "For the average person, It may all look so easy," said Mark W. Zaikin, looking ahead to the Center Stage production which kicks off the theater's 1975-76 season in less than two weeks. "However. It Is far from being easy. The putting togettier of a production actually 'Is a very complex venture involving over 100 people." According to Zalkln, who serves as overall producer of
the pnxhKtkM, work bcfan on "Sweet Charity" laat March when the Perfonnlng Arte Subcommittee ol the Jewliii Culttml Arta CouncU plaaned the itn-TS Mann. Recommendation* by "play-reading nbcommlttee" led to the season'* selectkm*, which were then approved by the main Art* Council in a telephone ptdl. Then Zaiktn had to find a director. Many telephone hours and numerous meetings later, he offered the Council's first "guest directorship' to Norman Filbert, one of metropolitan Omaha's most, respected and talented directors. Filbert went to work on "Sweet Charity".

Also hired were a music director (John Bennett) and a choreographer (Jo Anne Cady) with whom Fllliert had worked, in order to make up a strong, experienced production team, Zaikin said. Ralph Wright was hired as technical director. In early May, the four met with Zalkln. Also present were Al Comisar, JCC volunteer tech advisor; Gordm Cantiello, stage manager, and Bob Knox and Larry Lander, lighting designers.. The meeting acquainted the various directors with the Center Theater. It was to this meeting that Director Fill>ert brought his balsa wood model of the set. After the meeting, each began his preparations. Audition notices went to the area's newspapers and auditions were held June 1 and 2. Rehearsals began almost immediately. Zalkln designed the publicity campaign and implemented it through his office. "Publicity doesn't mean typing press releases and mailing them out," be said, citing among the tasks, the designing of posters and mailen, taping of radio and televtakm public service spots, getting mentkm of the liww In non-newspaper pubUcatkms, arranging tor publicity diot* for the p^^er* and getttng marquee space. Scott Barnes, costume committee chairman, and
Retha Herman of the makeup committee inventoried and determined needs. Set construction crews began creating sets, working evenings and weekends. The 17-member ticket committee, under the dedicated direction of Sally Rosen, used a phone-a-thon to promote Center Stage's season tickets. Mrs. ftosen and Zalkln worked at length, designing and planning the ticket campaign. Special tickets, showing reserved seats, had lo be ordered and ail the seats in the theater numbered and lettered. Carol Rempel, cultural and performing arts secretary, coordinated tickets and box office and trained the necessary personnel. Meanwhile, Zaikin arranged for Brandeis' handling of ticket sales, too. Sylvia Wagner and Lynda Mirvisb were asked to plan the printed program, with Sylvia designing the program and Lynda coordinating copy and advertising. Then all was submitted for printer's bids. There are, of course, the last-rolnute things still to be done — the vacuuming of the theater after each per formance, the briefing of each show's ushers, and the providing of such as flashlights. ' Tickets for the show, which runs July 24 through Aug. 3, may be obtained by calling ttie Center box office at 334-8200.

fact that the experience, abilities and availability of Jewish women offer a tremendous reservoir of leadership for the Jewish community. It recommends that each Jewish Federation assume responsibility for effectuating the Inclusion of women on local agency boards, in the campaign structure, and in all types of community and committee positions. The importance of the active role of the Jewish woman in communal affairs is al^ being felt in the home. Inspired by the experiences in her communal activities, the mother of the house shares her inspiration with her adult children. This brings closer understanding between the children and the mother. It develops greater respect among the youths for their mothers and admiration for her interest in communal causes. It also helps to strengthen Jewish identity among adult children and t» check the possibility of intermarriage. Of course, there are also many youths In Jewish families who prefer to see their mother active In general humanitarian causes rather, than Jewish. Discussions twtwcen grownup children and parents on this subject only help to bring children and parents closer together, even when differing In opinions.

However, the number of women in leadership positions in these organizations Is rising. At every national gathering of major Jewish organizations, one can now see more and more women delegates — not as representatives of women's groups, but as equal participants representing the entire organization. These women are all of younger age, young mothers. They are all American-bom some of them second and even third generation Americans. In many cases, they don't feel like belonging to a women's group; they want to be active in organizations where men and women are working together and sharing leadership together. Tbe Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds — the central body of tbe organized Jewish communities — lays great emphasis on tbe Increasing role of women in Jewish communal leadership.

1. We believe here in Nebraska OPPD can help reduce our nation's dependence on foreign oil sources. Our own use of fuel oil has been minimized to the extent that in 1974 less than half of one percent of the elecMcity we generated was produced with oil! 2. We believe that insofar as possible domestic oil and gas supplies must be directed to uses for which there is no feasible or economic substitute. Such uses are fuels for cars and trucks and as raw materials for industry. 3. We believe that the natjon's electric industry must turn more and more to coal and nuclear power as fuel for its generators. 78% of our generating capability now uses these two fuels. 4. We believe that the electric industry must be ready to furnish a m^jor share of the energy now provided by oil and gas. To meet this responsibility in our service area the District is now constructing 1,726,000 kilowatts of nuclear and coal generation so that our customers' future demands for energy in the form of electricity can be met. 5. We know that our coal-fired generating plants can be operated without any significant detrimental effect on the environment. Low-sulfur coal from Wyoming which meets air-quality requirements is now being used. OPPD is building a 131,000,000 addition to its North Omaha Power Station which will remove 99.3% of the particulate

ZLubavltch In Omaha TaUof 'Rebate'fw Going Kosher ByRiduurdPMri Omaha —You've heard about rebates on cars? So how about a "rebate" of sorts on a form of "transportation" into traditional Judaism—a rebate for maJcing
your house kosher? That's what the Lubavitcher Movement is now offering, according to two Lubavitcher Yeshiva students who visited Omaha this weeic from New YorltCUy.
Where OPPD stands on electricity, costs, environment, and tlie energy problem Members of the Board and employees of the Omaha Public Power District listened with special interest to the President's broadcast on energy recently. Since OPPD is an electric energy supplier we understand that the nation's energy problem is complicated and that there are many views on how best our energy needs can be met. Many aspects of the problem are beyond the power and authority of an electric utility such as OPPD. But some things are well within our power and under our control. OPPD wants concerned public officials of Nebraska and our customers to know where it stands and what the District is doing about energy in soytheastem Nebraska!

matter which would otherwise be released to the atmosphere. 6. We have found that the operation of our nuclear unit has been exceptionally reliable. The unit was available for operation 83.5% of the time in 1974. In that year it produced 2,404,000,000 kilowatt hours of electricity—54% of all the electricity our customers used. 7. We now have proof that our nuclear unit's operation has had no significant detrimental effects on our environment. More than 1,100 tests have shown that there is no measurable or detectable increase in' the level of radiation resulting from a year and halfs operation of the nuclear reactor. There has been no significant change in the biological life in the river below the plant All tests show that the plant is environmentally clean. 8. We believe that until a fast-breeder reactor is developed and the fusion process becomes a commercial reality the solution to the nation's energy problem lies in electricity generated from coal and uranium. OPPD has had excellent experience with these two sources of energy and is now investfng approximately (270,000,000 in a coalfired plant for service in 1979 and $390,000,000 (one-half the total cost) in a nuclear plant for service in J983.
The program wasn't actually referred to as a rebate, but rather as a project whereby the Lubavitcher Movement would pay SO per cent of the cost of ka^ring a home through its Kashruth Fund, which was established within the last month or so. The visitors, Yosef Woioaov and EU WUscbansU, said the program should serve as strong inducement to those Jews who Idt the expense of making tbelr borne kosher ("proper" according to ancient Jewish law) was too great. And, tbey said, the homes helped by the Fund would be kept strictly conOdentlal. Handled by the Mitzva Campaign of the Lubavitch Youth Organization in Brooklyn, the' requirements include kashering "the stove and other utensils, (purchasing) two new sets of dishes and whatever else is necessary." Half the expenses wUl be reimbursed when the LYO receives "a letter, from the local Rabbi certifying that the kitchen has been kashered" and the amount of expenses Incurred. "Those Interested can write lor more information from Mitzva Campaign, Lubavitch Youth Organization, 770 Eastern Parkwayi Brooklyn, NY., 11213, or contact the Chabad Houses in either Kansas City or Minneapolis, the two students said. Wolosov and Wilschanski said. Omaha was their first stop on a trip to several midwestem cities, including Oes Moines and Chicago. Lubavitcher Yeshiva students make these trips each summer to bring Yiddishkeit to the various Jewish communities outside New York, they said. They explained that the ultra-Orthodox Lubavitcher Movement-which is Hassidic in nature—seeks to reach the emotions of Jews through their Intellect-"when you
understand something," the two said, "It has an effect on your emotions." Tlw movement seeks to get each man's Jewish soul to reveal itself—tbey said each Jew possesses a soul, but that lack of knowledge and understanding of the laws of Judaism keeps (be soul trom revealing Itself. They are not missionaries, they stressed, and they are not seeking tg make converts of non-Jews. They work strictly with Jews, they said. The Lubavitcher Movement, with branches and offices all over the world, has taken to such as sending out a fleet of vans dubbed "Jewish tanks against assimilation" in the streets of New York. Inside the vans, Yeshiva students teach those Jews who wish to come in such mltzvot from Jewish heritage as laying teflllln, placing mezuzot on their doorposts and keeping a puahka in the house to give to any charity. Excursions outside New York are extensions of the "Jewish tanks" idea. Among the other mitaot urged by Wolosov and Wilschanski, in addition to Torah study and keeping of holy Jewish books I Bible, Siddur, Psalms), is the lighting of the Shabbat candles by all women, even unmarried ones, and the proper observance of Tabaras Hamlahpacba, the laws of Jewish marriage and family purity, which include bathing inamikjah. Wolosov and Wllshanski visited the Jewish Community Center's Recreation and Camp, passing out Shabbat . candles and explaining them to the youngsters. The two said they carry their own kosher food with them on the trip, which t>egan with an airline flight to Omaha from New York and will end with a drive by aute back to New York.
9. The District recognizes that the cost of all forms of energy, including electricity, must rise in the years ahead. The costs of constructing new units, the interest costs on money needed to build those units and inflation will force increased costs. . OPPD will do everything (Mssible to hold rate increases down but we think that it is more important to give our customers an ample supply of electricity at .minimum costs necessary rather than to risk blackouts and restrictions on use at lower costs. 10. OPPD believes that "energy means jobs" and we intend to see to it that the business, industry and farms (as well as the homes) of southeast-em Nebraska have plenty of energy in the years ahead. This is our solemn responsibility and we are going'to meet it.

Rivers Rows With Wit and Wisdom ByEDeaGoiditein " •----'• ^ - - . N.y. iMWMl MVlW
It has lieen said that Jews love to sit around and talk about what being Jewish means — including' such trivialitiea as what kind of clothes we buy, where we vacation, why we don't eat corned beef hash. I don't exactly know why It Is, but I think It's true. I came to Interview commedlenne Joan Rivers armed with a battery of questions to ask her about comedy; She Is now appearing at Melody Fair In a combined show with John Davidson, and we ended up talking alxiut being Jewish and t>elng women. She's a pretty funny lady. As part of her act, she Insists that she's Just dumb. The Phi Beta Kappa Barnard college graduate relates mishaps and problems, and audiences have a hard time containing themselves. But die la hnny and she Hire ain't dumb. She came to burner aa an actreoa. "L was an actreai, and nobody cared. When I waa maktaig the
rounda, I wouid. joke around __..^ «M with tbe aecretariea. They remembered me. Wlien you act funny people kwk at you much more," Ae said In a way that nukes you listen bard, ttecauae stw tallcs fast. Jews were drawn to humor because If they did not laugh, they would be absort)ed by their suffering. "Jews are very melancholy people. They're not stable. As a Jew, you can sense the melancholia. My husband's whole family was wiped out In Germany. All we have left Is a pill box to remind us of them. As a minority group, we have had to struggle, and we still struggle," she said. Miss Rivers is baslcafly a writer with such crediti as staff writer for "Candid
Camera," magadne. artidei ._ <«_»__ n ...* in "Ladles Home Journal," "CoomopoUtan," "Playboy," and "McCaU't." She baa writtm tbe script tor Uie ABCTV Movifrof-the-Week, "The Girl Moat Ukely to..." With her husband, writer producer Edgar Rosenberg, she wrote and starred In the Broadway comedy, "Pun City." She has recently written a book, "Straight or Gay," and has other projects still In the typewriter. No matter what you do, "The best thing to be Is Jewish," she says. "We are the brightest, because we are the survivors. We have to be the smartest, because we have a whole heritage of pulling ourselves through. We're going to make it, we have to."
