Now he Is charged with safeguarding the persons and properties of the citizens of Omaha. He Is Richard A. Roth, public safety director, who was introduced to us by Commissioner Dick Fellman. Roth pleased us with his report that while other major cities of our country find their crime statistics increasing, those of Omaha have lately been decreasing, We knew that Nebraska is a good state in which to Uve. We are delighted to learn that the dvll climate of Omaha Is even better. Gexunt und frellach! Roth's detailed explanation of how the police force works, how they are increasingly employing electronic methods and equipment in order to more swiftly and fairly apply crime prevention and detection processes, led us to greater understanding of our police force. We can appreciate how and why a policeman's lot is not always a happy one. With increasing cooperation between the police and the citizens, everyone can and will benefit. Roth told us that while guarding Golda Melr, they became •o friendly that she offered to adopt him. He respectively declined.

"I had heard so many wonderful things about Israel from Harlan," Nancy enthuses, "but I still was not completely prepared for it. The country is so beautiful and the Israelis have done so much.

ByfUbblOr. Samuel J. Fox (Copyright 1(77, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc. QUESTION: What Is meant by the expression "Kayn Ayin Hora?" ANSWER: This expression, literally translated means "with no evil eye." It ii used when praising a person or a personal situation. IU intent I* to offer the praise and to prevent any envy from the praise worthy drcumstance that would lead to strife and bad feelings. The most characteristic phrase in this expression is "evil eye" (ayln hora). This expression U found In the Bible (Proverb] 28:22) where the scriptura text states "He that has an evil eye hastens after riches and does not know me want that shall come upon him." Here obviously the "evil eye" stands for the feeling of envy. The effects are characterized as affecting the envious person himself with unlortunate consequences, In the Talmudlc literature we have references to the effect of the "evil eye" on the innocent object of envy, i.e. the person who Is envied. One such source states that occupations which give a picture of note worthy success do not give their practitioners eventual blessing because of the "evil eye" that others will cast upon them or their success (P'sachlm sob). The mystics Indeed, find esoteric meaning to this feeling of envy which eventually sheds harm on innocent victims because they are objects of envy. The Talmud In ooe place (B'racnoth Kb) even gives a strange formula whereby one can ward off the evil consequences of the. "evil eye." Generally speaking, the fear of the "evil eye" has restrained many believing Jews from bragging about their achievements. Some Jews were in Uw habit of wearing amulets to ward off the effects of the "evil eye." '

Senior Citizens'Scene By Helen Newman Exceeding all expectations, approximately 150 men and women of the Older Adult Group attended the Monday, Feb.7, Philanthropies luncheon and program. To the committee, cochairmen Marlene Hechtman and Mickey Sturm; Ann Kalraan and Barbara Simon, of the Women's Division of the 1977 Campaign, It Is very evident that we care and, as printed on the beautifully decorated cake "We Are One". Lou Solomon, executive director of the Jewish Federation of Omaha, accepted a check from Mollie Delman on behalf, of the Older Adult Group. This contribution to the campaign, was made from the treasury of the Older Adult dub and not from the Individual members. Headlining the program, the distinguished Israeli speaker and Journalist, Gavriel Zifronl, spoke to the group in a very effective manner. He brought out the point - "We know what the United States is doing for Israel — but what is Israel doing for the United States?" "Israel Is an ally to the United States" Zlfronl's dosing words were "Let's hope the peace in-the Middle East will not be at our expense." The delightful revue "Portrait of a Woman" was presented to the group and en. thusiastlcally accepted by those in attendance. It was a real treat! With Sylvia Goldberg and Zelda Freedman as cochairmen of this event, credit is also due Fanny Chunovlc, Fanny Manvltz, B e t t y
Weinman, Sally Ricks and Fay Kahn for their part in making this Philanthropies luncheon and program an outstanding success. The response was wonderful! If the members of the group were not in the mood when the program started — they surely were eager to respond to the needs of the 1977 Women's Division of the Jewish Philanthropies campaign, at the close of the day's activities. For those of you who did not have an opportunity to sign your Philanthropies pledge card on Monday—or have not been contacted — please call .Sylvia Goldberg 391-88M. Be sure to attend next Monday's luncheon meeting Feb. 14 when an entertaining program has been arranged by Margie Nearenberg and Fannie Brown. Congressman John Cavanaugh will Join the group from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. to discuss points of interest. Your regular activities also will be available. On Monday, Feb. 21, the 25th anniversary of the Senior Citizen's c l u b , will be celebrated. Ann Margolin has arranged a very Interesting schedule for this event. Morrie Epstein is bringing back the performer — Davey Bold, to be our guest A special luncheon menu is being planned by Mollie Delman.

NEW YORK — Various groups have deplored the action by Federal Trade Commissioner Paul Rand Dixon who called Ralph Nader "a dirty Arab." ' The American Jewish Congress said in a recent statement "Dixon should apologize at once . . . for his intemperate language." They concluded their news release by stating, "We are just as opposed to the phrase 'dirty Arab' as we are to 'dirty Jew'. Meanwhile, the American Jewish Committee called for the resignation of Dixon, say-
ing "There is no place in our government's structure for people with such views." In a letter to Calvin J. Collier, chairman of the FTC, Bertam H. Gold, executive vice president of the AJC said; "Descent to racial slurs takes any controversy out of the marketplace of Ideas and throws it into the sewer of prejudice. We trust that the widespread indignation aroused by Dixon's remark will make him and others, realize that such bigotry and vulgarity are quickly rejected by Americans of all races and creeds."
Germany Seeks Role in Peace ByJonFedler BONN, (JTA) - Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Gensher's visit to Syria, Egypt, and-Jordan this week, and to Israel in March will be watched by Bonn diplomats with unusual interest.
