Volume 5 Number 2 and SHOF All OF GREATER HOLLYWOOD Hollywood, Florida Friday, January 17. 1975 Price 25 centa COCHAIRMEN BAER AND COHN REPORT South Brawards 1975 Campaign in High Gear Melvin H. Baer and Lewis E. Cohn, 1975 Campaign cochair- men, report that 40 solicitation meetings have already been scheduled during the next two months for the 1975 Campaign. Organizational meetings of the High Rise Division, with Ot- to Stieber as chairman, have been conducted daily so that ev- ery building on the Beach will be organized. Workers' training sessions were also held for all High-Rise leadership. "Our community recognizes that the people of Israel and the Jews of the world reflect two different images, but just Maitland Minister's 4Holy War9 Set To Outwit Court Rule on Prayer one destiny," Mr. Cohn stated. "It Is not always easy to be Jewish, and we are all part of the anguish and the Joy of be- ing who we are," he added. "The pain of a holocaust, the for the protection of the State of Israel, make us aware of our blood of the young men who die death of innocent people at Ktr- yat Shemonah, Ma'alot, and the Judaism. But ao does the joy of having a State of Israel, and the pleasure of seeing Jews from oppressed lands come out of bondage into freedom." A Florida clergyman Is setting up what he calls a "holy war"T against "undesirable elements[ Communist elements to my way of thinking." In the view of Maitland Rev. Arthur Froehlich, pastor of the Bible Presbyterian Church there, the "undesirable elements" are those who take the U.S. Supreme Court ruling seriously banning mandatory prayers in public schools. THE RULING came more than a decade ago. Still, there is a Florida statute calling for the teaching of "Christian virtues" and related "devotional exercises" in the schools, and Rev. Froehlich sees his "holy war" as another aspect of the recent West Virginia text- book war, which in his view in volved "attacks on good Christian moral teachings." At the center of the struggle were hearings that opened before a federal judge in Orlando last week designed to strike down school board policies permitting the continuing infraction of the Supreme Court ruling. PLAINTIFFS INCLUDE a cross-section of Protestant, Catho- lic and Jewish parents. Out to check Rev. Froehlich is Orlando attorney Jerome Born- stein, head of the legal panel in Central Florida of the American Civil Liberties Union. IN BORNSTEIN'S view, the abuses of the Federal injunction against religious activity in the public school system are wrong J 1 Paul Weiner's appointment las chairman of the UJA 1975 JFund Raising Campaign for tie Aquarius has been an- nounced by Lewis E.

Mr. Eban played a key role in the diplomatic field for Israel, both in the year immediately preceding her independence and throughout her history as a sov- ereign nation. He first achieved worldwide prominence as Offi- cial Liaison between the Jewish community of Palestine and the United Nations committees which deliberated the Palestine problem in Geneva and at Lake Success. Mr. Eban collaborated in the preparation of the Jewish case which was brought before the General Assembly and the Se- curity Council and himself pre- sented a part of the Jewish plea which resulted in the establish- ment of the State of Israel. In the ensuing years, the Is- raeli leader gained international acclaim as his country's Ambas- sador to the United States, a post he held for nine years. He also served as Israel's permanent representative to the United Na- tions. After returning to Israel, he served variously as Minister of Continued on Page 3 not quite as enthusiastic as it did in the beginning in the role of defendant.

Following the Yom Kippur War, the "Buy Israel" office organized a publicity campaign in the Miami area to stimulate the demand for Israeli products in order to strengthen that country's economy. Cooperating in the project were most of the Jewish organizations in the area. Mr. Meshulah now wishes to launch the "Buy Israel" project, sponsored by the Jewish Market Organization, the Jewish Agen- cy, and the Ministry of Com- merce and Industry in Israel, to all American communities. Every Jewish family is urged to buy something Israeli, such as wines and liqueurs, clothing, gloves, bags, leather goods, foods, tires, jewels, stamps and/ or coins, cosmetics and perfumes, religious items, toys, records and books, at least once a week in order to help Israel's export trade recover from the effects of the October 1973 War. In Hollywood, the Community Relations Committee of the Jew- ish Federation of South Broward will discuss the proposed "Buy Israel" project at its monthly luncheon, Thursday noon, Jan. 23, at Temple Solel. Mr. Me- shulach will be guest speaker. METROPOLITAN DIVISION ORGANIZES Leonard Schiff (left) has agreed to be chair- man of the Emerald Hills area, and Alvin Hess and Harry Smallberg have agreed to cochair the Hillcrest community, Nathan Pritcher, chairman of the Metropolitan Divi- sion of the 1975 Campaign, announced.

First, Leonid Brezhnev cancelled his trip to Cairo be- cause of the rift between the Soviet Union and President Sadat over Sadat's presumed preference for Henry Kis- singer's step-by-step resolution of the problems between Egypt and Israel. Then he had a bad cold. Then he had bronchitis or a touch of the flu. Then he was not going to give sophisticated arms to Egypt until Sadat made some promises about letting all those Soviet "technicians" return there that Sadat bounced out almost two years ago. Now he has leukemia, and the latest Kremlinology Intelligence is that the first major benefit of detente will be the availability to Brezhnev of American medical know- how in the treatment of this mortal disease. Which is about as inexact as anything can get, con- sidering the batting average for cancer control in either country. Back in 1962, Black Martinique psychiatrist Franz Ganon, the philosopher-father of Third World revolution, died of leukemia in the Bethesda Naval Hospital in Mary- land. He had come to the U.S. as a last resort from the Soviet Union, which of course was his first choice for medical assistance. Dividing People of Florida Once again we are in for a struggle that will divide faiths, families and human decency, this time in the State of Florida. At issue are the hearings that opened Wednesday in Orlando over the Florida law requiring the teaching of "Christian virtues" in the schools. That law was passed before the United States Su- preme Court issued a ruling banning mandatory prayer in Florida's public schools. Maitland Rev. Arthur Froehlich will have none of it. In his view, "attacks on good Christian moral teach- ings" are launched by "Communist elements, to my way of thinking." That means just about anybody, including more per- ceptive Catholics, Protestants and Jews, who believe that the practice of one's faith is a function of the home and he practice of one's faith is a function of he home and church or synagogue. It also means that Rev. Froehlich doesn't care what he says so long as he can discredit people who don't agree with him. Which, of course, in the end will mean what we warned about in the beginning the dividing of faiths, families and human decency. Women's Council Week The National Council of Jewish Women annually celebrates Council Week across the country, and in Mi- ami, Council Week will highlight the Greater Miami Sec- tion's annual membership meeting Wednesday noon, Jan. 15, at the Seville Hotel. Despite the growing mood of pessimism gripping the nation, the 100,000 members of the National Council of Jewish Women continue to dedicate themselves to the organization's programs in a positive mood. Recalling Eleanor Roosevelt's observation that "It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness," Mrs. Judy Gilbert, president of the Greater Miami Section, suggests that of course Council women recognize the enormity of the social problems facing them and our country as a whole. "Yet, rather than buckle under their weight, we work at selected tasks with enthusiasm, intensity and patience." And so, in the face of a growing malaise into which the nation seems to be slipping, Council, for example: Takes great pride in its recent survey and pending book on Juvenile Justice; Joins in support of the enormous task involved in the exodus of Jews from the Soviet Union; Continues its programs that benefit a variety of projects in Israel; Remains ever vigilant of the system of Jewish ethics in support of human dignity as the most important of all human concerns. Inerested? That, on a small scale of a much grander design, is what Council Week is all about and also that annual membership meeting at the Seville. It's Quality and Not Just Cash A LAIN* Lombard has said that, to help solve the Greater Miami Philharmonic's economic crisis, he would conduct the rest of the season for free if neces- sary. That would be a bad deal. Things are bad enough now. They do not, by what may on its face seem to be his Gallic gallantry, then to be compound- ed by our foolhardiness, have to be made worse. WHAT I am critical about in the orchestra now its artis- tic "growth," its management, its bravura conductor still in his emotional kneepants, the consti- tuency of its citizens' board I was critical about three years ago, as well. Only then, the doyens of the diminuendo dado, holding the Maestro high like some magni- ficently decorative continental catch, pilloried me, and rather viciously as I recall, for saying of him exactly the same things they have finally brought them- selves to say of him now. Or al- most. FOR EXAMPLE, one member of the board accused me of in- consistency: At the conclusion of Lombard's first season, I "''.'..'i^.-l'.'a A Mindlin praised him. At the conclusion of the second, I damned him. Another member charged that, in the beginning, I applauded the Maestro for his European concert tours which could only enlarge his experience and re- dound to the benefit and the glory of the Philharmonic here. But later, according to this Nostradamus, I was writing that his European tours were per- sonal ego trips intended to bene- fit his own glory, to advance his own professional standing abroad at the expense of Miami's need for his services which he was contractually obliged to fulfill, but which he seemed increasing- ly to be sloughing off onto ex- pensive guest conductors or in the name of sudden bouts of illness. A THIRD member, this one a musicologist of some fair re- pute, privately agreed with all my critical observations and en- couraged me to publish them "for the good of serious music in South Florida," but publicly joined in the clamor for my head when I did. As to the charge of inconsis- tency: In his first season with the Miami Philharmonic, Maes- tro Lombard achieved a memor- able transformation in the or- chestra. It developed suddenly, almost too precipitously, from a collection of amateur forces in- to a group of daring players with daring repertoire just short of professional standing. And I said so. BIT BY the end of the sec- ond season, it was apparent that the Maestro had shot his bolt. There would be no more devel- opment because he had no more to give. That was a bitter dis- appointment which most of us, encouraged by the stunning first Continued on Page 9 Quick to Assume Congress Liberal By JOSEPH ALSOP Los Angeles Times Syndicate WASHINGTON The current- ly fashionable doctrine is that the new Congress elected by the Democratic landslide will be the most leftward-leaning Congress this town has even seen. But like so many fashionable doctrines, this can easily turn out to be sadly misleading. The most conspicuous feature of this new Congress will be the huge increase in the Democratic majority in the House. But it has to be remembered that just about every member who has been add- ed to the former Democratic ma- jority was elected from a for- mer Republican district. AS SPEAKER Carl Albert has been pointing out to those who are close to him, this obviously means that a great majority of these additions to the Democratic majority have behind them elec- torates that are reasonably con- servative by current standards. Any Democrat with a reason- ably conservative, formerly Re- publican electorate is also all but certain to be a middle-of-the- road Democrat. By now Speaker Albert has talked with all but six of his party's new House members. He is a notable middle-of-the-road man himself. He's been much en- couraged by what he has found in this marathon series of chats; and he has been passing the word that "It's a good idea, nowadays, to remember 14B." THE REASONS for remember- ing 14B at this juncture are both cogent and logical. To begin with, this clause of the Taft Hartley Act has always been the special bugbear of organized labor, since it comes close to encouraging the states to pass "right to work" laws intended to weaken unions. Organized labor therefore mounted an enormous effort to repeal 14B during the 89th Con- gress. This was the Congress elected in the midst of the Republican Party's disaster with Sen. Berry Goldwater; and the Democratic majority in the House in that Congress was a couple of seats higher than the same majority will be in the new Congress. PRESIDENT LYNDON John- son also gave labor's drive against 14B his supposedly all- powerful support. The Demo- cratic leaders of both House and Senate were equally active. But despite the combined ef- forts of the President, the offi- cial congressional leaders and save favorite social programs. Certain aspects of the organi- zation of the House may also be altered by the altered balance of the Democratic Caucus. One likely target is the peculiar or- ganization of the Ways and Means Committee. But on the other side of the balance sheet, there are items that will upset many liberals. One such is the possibility of another antibusing bill based on new hearings by the House Edu- cation and Labor Committee that will be aimed to prove what ij true, alasthat the kind of bus- ing causing all the trouble in 3oston does not really help to teach minority children to read and write and figure. IN SHORT, the prospect is for a mixed bag, with the main dan- gers an attack on the national defense and a recession-spurred drive to pile "reflation" on top of runaway inflation. To this gen- eral prospect, however, one must add two footnotes First of all, the Democrats will have a more top-heavy majority in a House that was already less well disciplined than the House has ever been for at least two generations. TOP-HEAVY majorities always tend to produce riotous behavior by individual members or groups of members. So the Democratic leaders will have a fearful time persuading the followers not to make a pub- lic spectacle of themselves. Second, the country is all but certain to receive some fearful shocks in the next year. Every thing in Congress will then de- pend upon how the country re- sponds to these shocks._______ ^JewishMeridian OWWKK and PLANT 120 N.B. tth St, Miami, Pla, S31M __one ST3-4WI HOLLYWOOD OFFICE Telephone S73-460J P.O.

This does not mean, of course, that the next Congress will be solidly middle of the road in the style of Speaker Albert. AS A combat veteran of World War II, Speaker Albert has al- ways believed in a vigorous bi- partisan foreign policy and a strong national defense. But the United States is now beginning to show the kind of generation gap on these subjects that caused the war inviting weakness of Britain and France in the time of Adolf Hitler's rise in Germany. About the only remaining con- tent of American left-wing thought is a strange dedication to tearing down the national de- fense and dismantling the long- established national foreign pol- icy. There will be a budget bind, too. Most of the new Democrats are on the younger side of the generation gap.

Br ABRAHAM- B. HAI.FttRV Ql'ESTIOX: What is the cus- tom or religious practice requir- ing a widow to take off the shoe of her husband's brother? CAROL SCHREIBER Montreal, Canada ANSWER: This is connected with the Biblical law of Levirate Marriage, the practice of mar- rying the widow of one's brother who died childless (from the Latin, Levir, which means hus- bands brother). If the brother refuses to mar- ry his brother's widow, the rite of Halitzah is prescribed. Halitzah is a Hebrew word moaning the ceremony of taking off the shoe of the Levir. The Levirate Marriage and the Rite of Halitzah are spelled out in detail in Deuteronomy, Chapter 25, Verses 5-10. "When brothers dwell togeth- er and one of them dies and leaves no son, the wife of the deceased shall not be married to a stranger, outside the family. Her husband's brother shall unite with her and take her as his wife, performing the Levir's duty. The first son that she bears shall be accounted to the dead brother, that his name may not be blotted out in Israel. "But if the man does not want to marry his brother's widow, his brother's widow shall appear before the elders in the gate and declare, 'My husband's brother ref ses to establish a name in Israel for his brother; he will rot perform the duty of a Levir.' The elders of his town shall then summon him and talk to him. "If he insists, saying, 'I do not choose to marry her,' his broth- ABt HALPtRN er's widow shall go up to him in the presence of the elders, pull the sandal off his foot, spit in his face, and make this decla- ration: "Thus shall be done to the man who will not build up his brother's house!' And he shall go in Israel by the name of 'the family of the unsandaled one'." By Talmudic times the custom of Levirate Marriage gradually declined. The Rabbis encouraged the Biblical provision for its evasion, the rite of Halitzah. In modern Israel the Rabbis established that the obligation of Halitzah takes precedence over Levirate Marriage. In 1953 legislation was passed that a brother who refuses to give Ha- litzah to his deceased brother's widow is liable to imprisonment. Liberal Judaism dispensed with the duty of Levirate Mar- riage and the necessity of Ha- litzah.

Bornstein recalls that early on in the suit, U.S. District Judge George Young argued that "Schools have long recognized the need for teaching good hy- gienic habits; the desirability of the use of a toothbrush has not been left to home instruction alone," he wrote. "WHY THEN should public schools omit inspirational pro- grams designed to promote hon- esty, decency and respect for the rights of others?" The judge refused to grant an injunction. Orange County tempers flared at a School Board meeting in 1970. which Bornstein and Rev. Froehlich. among others, ad- dressed. "I've never been afraid at a public gathering of any kind like I was that night," Bornstein declared. The latest legal maneuver be- fore a federal judge in Orlando last week may finally help re- solve the problem.

I MMM I UWtUM By BOB KBRBEL Israel stands alone its only hope for survival is that the Jew- ish people will do everything within their power to keep it strong. There is a direct relationship between the amount of money that is given to support Israel and the amount of blood that may be spilled. In a recent article in the New York Times, Elie Wlesel, tho philosophical and mystical writer on Judaism, Israel, and the Holo- caust, expressed for the first time a depressive opinion about the future of Judaism and Israel. He offered the opinion that the world might sacrifice the State of Israel to ensure its oil supply. Israel can be the fulfillment of 2,000 years of Jewish existence. By that I do not mean that it is the homeland of all Jews, but rather a refuge for those Jews who need it and wish it, and just as important, the continuation of the light of ethical and moral values, "a light unto all the nations of the world." What is the meaning of Jewish survival if it Is not to set tho example of justice and freedom for a!i people? Israel can serve as the nucleus of a centrifugal force to aid in the development of this concept, but for it to do so it needs to survive, and it can only survive through strength. What the Jews of America give to the i>eoplc of Israel has a strong relationship to the quantity and quality of American gov- ernmental support. During this time of world crisis our aid must be greater than ever before. We are partners, one with the other. As our 1975 Campaign moves ahead we must constantly remember this partnership. The strength of the American Jewish community; and its support of Israel will help ensure that our grandchildren will know and have pride in the fact that they are Jews. Our support of the campaign is insurance for our future. As I see it it's a good investment.

Pag* 6 *" +Je*istincrkV7 and Sholar of Hollywood Friday, January 17. 1975 i Teen Scene \ By PALL, KERBEL. I should like to devote most of this column to a very special in- sight on the College Scene in Is- rael. With the permission of Is- rael Magazine, The Israel Inde- pendent Monthly, I should like to reprint several sections of an article entitled "Quiet on the Campus," by Anita Gillick. 'Israel's university students are adrift. Many are angry. Some are bitter. The misrepre- sentations and miscalculations of October 1973. and after, pro- voked currents of uncertainty. All is not as it should be in Is- rael. Yet, the campus is quiet. Where is the indignant voice of Israel's future leadersthe uni- versity students? "Israel is a democracy. The right to protest is freely given. Eight thousand joined in one mass demonstration of public opinion in Jerusalem. But the Hebrew University alone has over 10,000 students; and there are five other major universi- ties: Tel Aviv, Bar Ilan, Univer- sity of the Negev, Haifa Univer- sity and the Technion. "Who is the Sabra that car- ries the Israeli fighting spirit onto the battiegroupnd and loses it on the homefield? Today's 'av- erage' Israeli student entered university in his twenties, after completing his obligatory Army servicetwo years for the girls, three years for the boys his 18-year-old burst of bravado and individuality tempered by the disciplinary indoctrination of Army life. He may have spent an additional year or two work- ing to earn money for his tui- tion. "Adolt, perhaps married with family obligations, he fills the six-day work week with 25-to-38 credit hours and generally a full- time job. The army still influ- ences him, because men are li- able for duty approximately two months of every year. He may be called up in the middle of the semester, but would not be ex- cused from normal completion of his studies and examination. "The Israel collegiate is more mature than his European and American counterparts, and more serious. He knows what he wantsto get his degree, which will mean a better job. Study is a matter of economics. "With a mixture of condes- cension and envy, he watches the foreign students'children' who can cut class with impunity, read for pleasure, explore wider hori- zons and seek alternatives. "Even the girls, who may dab- ble in chuppahlogy the hunt for husbands harness their in- tellectual curiosity in pursuit of a profession. The Sabra female's equality is established in nursery school and confirmed in the army. 'They' are a mutually ac- cepted combination of "she and he.' "Because of his age, respon- sibilities, and obligations, the Israeli student cannot afford the luxury of a four-year escape from practical reality. Any dif- ference between the Israeli stu- dent and society in general is coincidental. The student is an integral member of his society, personally involved in its prob- lems of making ends meet. He is caught up in the national pressure of building a country surrounded by hostile nations, of rising inflation, taxation and materialism. "There is little campus life no fraternities or sororities, no extracurricular interest clubs nor intercollegiate games, no proms and no cheerleaders. Only a smattering of varsity teams, such as basketball and judo, which few students can enjoy in their daily round of class, work, family, and study. "Student unions do exist, of- fering counseling services, and .J organizing various inexpensive entertainment programs, such as informal get-togethers, weekend dances of American rock and Is- raeli folk music, and going to the movies. Students like casual dress and talk on social af- fairs, school, Army and some front-page politics. They're 'let- off-steam sessions'; opinion and criticism, generating no action. "The organized reform-seeking university students, an interna- tional phenomenon of the past decade, are absent in Israel. The Israeli campus lacks a tradition of opposition. In the '50s, there was nothing to changethe es- tablishments of the nation were just being created. In the '60s, strength, needed for survival, would have been weakened by opposing factions unity was necessary. "Prior to the Fall of '73, there existed the belief that capable hands were caring for society, so the individual was free to take care of himself. Israelis be- grudgingly accepted adminis- trational inefficiency, bother- some errors, and passing dissen- sion because of an unquestioned trust in the ultimate reliability and wisdom of the leaders of the Army and government. "This euphoria was shattered by the Yom Kippur War. It was destructive in every respect. Even victory did not justify the people's confidence. A credibility gap emerged. Questions are still being asked. Answers: tentative, unsolidified. "There have been no dramatic upheavals on the campuses in Is- rael, no solutions, no definite answers. Many believe that time will dissipate the frustration as well as the rumblings of discon- tent and that students will con- tinue in their personal passive world. Others hope the rumbling will erupt into action. After the shock, the concerned involve- ment of academic leadership might break the quiet on the Israeli campus." 1c ye On January 2, a Leadership Training Seminar was held for approximately 75 leaders of the USY chapters In South Florida, from West Palm Beach to Mi- ami, at Temple Sinai in Holly- wood. The leaders participated in two, 90-minute sessions with a luncheon meeting. The work- shops dealt with Leadership and Programming Techniques, Mem- bership, Social Actions, Reli- gious, Holiday and Social Pro- gramming, Soviet Jewry Activi- ties, Song and Dance, and a meeting of the Presidents Coun- cil (the Presidents of the six- teen USY chapters in South Florida.) Session leaders included Rab- bi Chaim Listfield, Associate Rabbi of Temple Sinai; Mrs. Shirley Cohen, Youth Coordina- tor of Temple Beth Shalom; Miles Bunder, Educational Si Youth Director, Temple Beth Israel, Ft. Lauderdale; Harold Friedman, Youth Director, Con- gregation Beth Torah, North Mi- ami Beach; Eitan Grunwald, Youth Advisor, Congregation B'nai Raphael, North Miami Beach; Harry Silverman, Direc- tor of Youth Activities, S.E. Re- gion, United Synagogue Youth; Lisa Winton and Paul Kerbel, South Florida USY President and Vice President respectively.

Well, what can one say? Jwas, incidentally, just about only member on the board some knowledge of music, Fwhich the board subsequent- ijocted him from its ranks as itzpah in a man devoid of the only music that means anything cold cash. The wages of sin are sore, indeed. And now, wonders of wonders, as I have already observed, these are precisely the qualities in the Maestro, or the lack of them, that the current hassle is all about. Or are they? WHAT I said three years ago, what I am repeating now, in- volves a consideration of artis- try. How does Lombard compare to other conductors, more ma- ture, less ambitious for a sec- ondary career as a matinee idol, of far greater stature and who would be delighted to make Mi- ami their podium if only the board and the orchestra's presi- dent knew something about music and music-making? And this has nothing to do with money, either. Maestro Lom- bard's emolument here has been outrageous if you study the con- tractual arrangements of some of the more august names in the field. But the current hassle, if we are to believe Philharmonic President Maurice Gusman, and surely in this instance there is no reason not to, is really about money. THE IDEA being advanced is that the Maestro was too flam- boyant in his tastes, and that his musical and personal flam- boyancy cost more money than the Philharmonic could afford. Of course, for his part, the Maestro is saying the same thing of Gusman, adding fillips of his own about Gusman's al- leged dictatorial highhandedness. None of this is unusual. The struggle between artists and the bourgeois world they entertain is a battlefield of corpses on which lie the bodies of some of the most distinguished names in musical history. BUT WHAT is unusual is that we continue to refuse to learn from the past. In the end, the question of artistry is only vaguely a factor in the Miami confrontation. In criticizing Lombard's flam- boyancy, for example, the board reckons the impact of this on the orchestra mainly in finan- cial and hardly in artistic terms. Seemingly, if there were no economic crisis, the Philhar- monic would be delighted to re- tain him on its podium in the same way that the community is delighted with the bizarre col- lection of hotels and condomini- ums along its now buried beach- es as long as private enterprise finds them really profitable. Damn the murdered beauty here. AND AS if to confirm his own place in this kind of communal design, that is why Lombard is offering to stay on free until things can be set to rights. Well, they may be set to bookkeeping rights, but they will never be set to musical rights in the Maestro's proposed symbiotic relationship between non-performance and the com- munity's thus far superficial sa- tisfaction with the bloated bour- 'olice Chief Flays Report He's Anti-Semite lUENOS AIRES The Po- Chief of the Rio Negro pro- Ice, Benigno Mario Ardanaz, repudiated a report that he ently appended a venomous a-Semitic attack on Jews to "order of the day" and also lied that he has resigned. pi a cable to DAIA, the rep- entative body of Argentine try, he stated that the anti- |mitic ceciaration had been aliciously attributed to him. added that such expressions not tally with the spirit and | of the Rio Negro police its chief. |Ardanaz had reportedly called a fight against Jews, Zion- m and Communism.

He stated that Bonn's foreign policy priority in 1975 would be the unification of Western Eu- rope. Nothing would be more dangerous, he staled in an in- terview with West German Ra- dio, than if European develop- ment were to be retarded be- cause of financial burdens aris- ing from the oil and energy crisis. a a & Klabin Protests Boycott RIO DE JANEIRO Dr. Is- rael Klabin, head of the multi- millionaire Klabin family, who owns various industrial enter- prises in Brazil, including the largest paper mill in the coun- try, said that the Arab decision last week to blacklist his firms is "an intolerable interference into the business of a Brazilian firm." Klabin, wno was reacting to a report from Beirut, said his firms had never done business with Arab countries. An Arab boycott has also been instituted against two non- Jewish firms that produce soft drinks because their trade marks contain symbols looking like the Star of David. The two firms, "Brahma" and "Antartica," have never done business with foreign countries. NEW YORK One hundred and twenty-two American Jew- ish university students spent their winter vacation learning about the land and people of Is- rael as participants in a 10-day study mission that ended Jan. 2 sponsored by the United Jewish Appeal. The group, which included a Black Jew from Kent State Uni- versity in Ohio, the editor of the Harvard University "Crimson," and large delegations from col- leges in Los Angeles, Philadel- phia and New York City areas, was the largest student mission in UJA history. * 4 6 Pardon For Prisoners COPENHAGEN It is more than likely that the last three prisoners involved in the murder of Ahmed Boushicki in Lille- hammer in 1973 may receive a pardon shortly after New Year, Norwegian sources said.

What I ' meant was that even for free the Philharmonic can not afford to continue to meander in medi- ocrity. OF COl'RSE, the crisis is fi- nancial. But it is also artistic, and if we do not face up to that now, we never will. For its part, the citizens' board includes the wisdom of finance, publishing and good in- tentions. But nowhere is there the real intelligence of music to assess the second crisis in quite the same way as the board can assess the first. Nowhere is there a real un- derstanding of Lombard as ar- tist the desperate deal he is offering to retain his Miami podium ought to say something about that. NOWHERE IS there the voice to say that, were there all the money needed to solve the Philharmonic's crisis suddenly available, and then some, still it SHOULD not afford him. The community approaches the problem as if it were one of those condominiums on the pub- lic's private beaches for the privileged in trouble, cash in hand. It does not see the Philhar- monic as an artistic instrument needing sensibilities in addition to those that businessmen and publishers are capable of deal- ing with.

The title is a euphemism for a pro- propagandist in the U.S., busy as a bevy of b ke New York Times opposite-editorial page. There letter to unsuspecting readers, he berated Presi- I Ford and Secretary Kissinger for raising threats kst oil-producing countries. ATiat right had they to scold Arab states for hik |bhe price of oil, he asked, when Americans had limiting production of food and keeping the price >d high for political reasons? [Why, the United States could feed the world for ; were it not for the greed of this nation. Dr. Mehdi Jitained. What right do Ford and Kissinger have. I, to fuss about inconvenience caused by a boost ke price of oil? JAS IS standard operating practice for Dr. Mehdi, llosses over essential factors. [# Item 1: America has become a great food-pro- Ing nation by its own sweat and through its own piuity. No entrepeneurs from other lands have come search for the fertile grounds, to plow the soil, bw the seeds, to provide the capital. By .contrast, kge amount of Arab oil profits are windfalls from fwelcomed prospecting, the drilling, the investment Americans and British industrialists: J Item 2: Contrary to the impression Mehdi at- jpts to create, the United States has provided food [hungry millions, often without cost and frequently rices humanitarians would applaud; 0 Item 3: When profits do accrue from agri- hiral advances in the United States, this nation phes out through such devices as the Marshall Plan the Peace Corps to help relieve poverty around world. Some of our profits, indeed, go for the ef and rehabilitation of refugees. Item 4: Refugees? Why cannot Dr. Mehdi and Je for whom he speaks now demonstrate unselfish jlse by using a sizeable share of oil largesses to for Arab refugeesthe one enclave among the |y collections of the refugees in the world that we about so often? | IN CONTRAST to these suggestions, the oil rich- now swelling the treasuries of Arab lands are ^ady being employed to give Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, other Arab states a piece of Western property. [ That building down the street of Atlanta, that knd off the coast of South Carolina, that hotel in Jcago; take a good look, for tomorrow these proper- i and hundreds more will be in Arab hands. Even now, Arab interests are reliably reported to fre insinuated more than a billion dollars into the erican economy. By this time next year, that amount kxpected to double. Arab oil income is topping $100 pon a year. Conservative economists estimate that , Arab governments will have half a trillion dol- I to invest. ^NCE THIS process escalates as it is expected to ice, Arab investo.-s in the United States can be cted to influence American advertising copy. From there it's an easy jump to the purchase of rspaper and magazine plants. A dreary outlook, but would be foolish to stick our heads in the sand fence comes the oil. Dr. Mehdi, with his double talk about America's kocrisy in dealing with food production while com- ining about the outlandish boost in oil prices by \b nations, is just a small sample of muchfar too |ch that lies ahead. An energy crisis is one thing; capture of a political and economic stranglehold on kerica by Arab oil sheiks is the energy crisis multi- fed endlessly. & * Time for rejoicing. Time for Sorrow. I ^oL ert We rejoice because it now appears that the USSR desire for favored-nation status in trade has proved greater than Moscow's determination to continue its -harsh policy against easing procedure for emigration of Soviet Jews. IN THE same hour, we sorrow because the UN General Assembly has opened its doors to the Pales- tine Liberation Organization, wrapping Arab terrorists in the mantle of international respectability. For if it proves true, as now indicated that some 60.000 Soviet Jews and other USSR citizens will be permitted to leave Russia annually, those emigrees who journey into Israel for freedom and security will face the heightened threat of Palestine Liberation Organiza- tion blood lust. :'' '"' -l-i-i-la.il..- ......T-i .:,. .:.:.;,! ,..,., ,T ... < -*"':. '......rii'rM "i. Political Clout of U.S. Jews ^/HEN JOURNALISTS turn sociologists, their writings contain interesting and controversial findings. Stephen D. Isaacs is chief of the New York Bureau of the Washington Post and served for many years in the capital He knows his Washington and many of those who make it tick. His book, "Jews and American Politics" (New York, Doubleday and Co., $8.55, 294 pp.) invites reading, study and discussion. ISAACS ATTEMPTS to answer such anestions as: Why is the political power and the contributions of Jews far greater than their numbers? Why do Jews seldom run for office? And why do so many work behind the scenes as strategists? The author's answers are based on interviews with 200 "leading Jews,'" most of whom are ex- tremely wealthy and substantial contributors One of the author's shortcomings as an amateur soci- ologist is his lack of in-depth knowledge of Judaism and his failure to make cny new or profound deduc- tions or observations. WHEN HE writes of events in Washington, how the leading Jews operate politically, and who they are, he is on firm ground. I. L. Kenen, Richard Perle, Hyman Bookbinder, Morris J. Amitay and a few others are the iront men for advancing the interests of Israel. The book is an excellent primer for an under- standing of events that move legislation: why Jews never become "anchor men" for national broadcast- ing companies: and a comment made by the first Jewish president of the American Society of News- paper Editors, "I spent a lifetime being what one might call a eunuch in the religious sense. It never occured to me that there were 'Jewish judgments'." Isaacs notes a difference between assimilation and the suppression"antiseptic professionalism" of the Jews in the mass media. THE INABILITY of McGovern to empathize with Jews and his almost puerile insistence on sophomoric populist philosophy is revealed in his meetings with leading Jews. The author discusses attitudes of American Jews toward Israel from the points of contributions, the exercise of political support of it. and aliyah. He errs in asserting that there are fewer religious and ethnic Jews worrying over Israel "than one sometimes thinks" and in making deductions from Rabin's 1972 support of Nixon. He proves that Jewish votes are important be- cause they vote in a higher percentage than their proportion of the population. "MMlHi;|tmrt*i .. i1 "t i .Hi. n; w , r^abbl t^antuel c^cA ver No RarityA Modest Rabbi nrnEY TELL about the TV producer who said to one of his writers: "I want a series about a family with 'happy problems.'" Down in North Miami, Fla., Rabbi Ralph Kings- ley has a "happy problem." AS HE described it in the bulletin of his syna- gogue, Temple Sinai of North Dade, the difficulty he's coping with is the big attendance at his Sab- bath eve services. Don't thin kthe rabbi is really complaining. He recognizes that a large turnout is the answer to a rabbi's prayers. What worries Rabbi Kingsley is that he finds it difficult to perform the gladsome Jewish custom of welcoming each worshipper. AND HE is also afraid that some people are not being greeted either by himself or a special committee which this fine congregation has fa- shioned. The special committee is called B'nai Noam, "pleasant people." In his bulletin column, he pleads with the Noamites not to let anyone be "lost in the crowd. It is true that the Miami area attracts more people to services than many a non-resort region. STILL, Rabbi Kingsley has a problem which would arouse the envy of many another rabbi. Modestly, he professes not to be able to explain the fine attendance. Actually, it's not so much the Miami air that is responsible, but the eloquence and affability of a splendid rabbi. Our compliments, Rabbi Kingsley. IIaim Topol Now Appearing In Film Based On Life Of Galileo TOPOL, the Israeli actor, was introduced to Holly- wood nine years ago with his screen portrayal of *." He rose to world fame with his performance as in "Fiddler on the Roof," both on the London and in the filmic adaptation which earned him a ation for an Academy Award. le now has completed the motion picture, "Galileo," p by the German poet-dramatist, Bertold Brecht, fled Nazi oppression to work during World War II kerica. JALILEO" was presented by him in an English- kge adaptation by Joseph Losey and Charles Laugh- the Hollywood Coronet Theater as a "live" produc- 1947 with Losey also directing and Laughton por- the title role. Salileo" tells the story of a 17th century Italian lomer who dared to reverse contemporary scientific Tt and ecclesiastic dogma by proving that the sun, kr earth, is the center of the universe (something sputed since that time). Page 11- By doing so, Galileo Galilei seemingly defied the Bible and confronted the authority of the Catholic church. In the eyes of Brecht the non-conformist and revolution- ary, Galileo finally betrayed both science and society by recanting under threat of torture and execution. Dealing with the freedom of thought, the play has remained timely ever since it was first presented to the world suffering under the impact of fascism. ELY LANDAU selected "Galileo" as the first work to be produced for the screen within the second season of subscription plays for his American Film Theater. Joseph Losey also directs the motion picture version with Sir John Gielgud, Colin Blakely. Georgia Brown, Margaret Leighton, Michael Londsdale and Edward Fox (of "Day of the Jackal") joining Topol. The movie was staged on one large composite set which suggested locations at Padua, Florence, Venice and Rome: colors, textures and architectural design to convey a feeling of the richly phrased baroque period. The Landau organization, headquartering at Twentieth Century Fox Studios in Beverly Hills, as in the past, produced their series for the American Film Theater both here and abroad. "Galileo" was completed in England; the second presentation comes from the Studios of France. IT IS the popular stage revue, "Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris." It is an accurate transposition by author Eric Blau of his own show, with a total of 26 chansons and not one word of spoken dialogue. The quartet of thespians consists of Elly Stone, Mbrt Shuman, Joe Masiell from the original Broadway produc- tion and Flemish author-composer Jacques Brel intonating his own songs and blending into the ensemble. _ Page 12 +Jenislhfk>rHi&n and Shofar of Hollywood Friday, January 17, 197J ... with every Jewish man, woman and child who needs our help in this world, whether they live next door or half the world away. .. .with the troubled, the oppressed, the deprived, of all ages: in the cities of America, the development towns of Israel, the remnant communities of Europe, the ghettoes of Asia and North Africa.
