A Pontiac couple with a life-long
interest in the Jewish Homeland
is "going home" this month, leav-
ing behind the comforts of Ameri-
can life and preparing to accept
whatever is in store for them and
their three children.
The Irving Schlyfestones, of Iro-
quois Rd., have lived in Pontiac
for 15 years. A native of the city,
Schlyfestone is merchandise man-
ager at Simms Department Store.
What he will work at in Israel he
doesn't know, but Schlyfestone, 41,
doesn't seem to mind the uncer-
tainty.
Nancy Sedley's Troth
to James L. Jonas Told
Mrs. Schlyfestone is equally en-
thusiastic. A member of Hadassah
and Cong. Bnai Israel, she is con-
versant in Hebrew (even taught
Hebrew school), and has no doubt
that Israel is where she and her
family belong.
Daniel, the only son, spent
seven summer weeks in Kfar
Silver, the camp of the Zionist
Organization of America. Mean-
while, his parents toured the
country and started the wheels
turning for immigration.
Rebecca, 13, and Rachel, 6, have
no qualms about their home-as-of-

ulpan, the family will be living in
a temporary dwelling, courtesy of
the Jewish Agency. It may be bare
compared to what the Schlyfes-
tones are used to. Nevertheless,
while the furniture stays behind,
the sculpture, paintings and piano
will go to Israel.
She admits the first year will
be "exceedingly difficult," but "I
think we'll make the adjustment
simply because we want to. And
if we can do anything to help
them (Israel), we'll also be en-
riching our lives." Not kibutz-
oriented, the couple hopes to
make their home in a small, de-
velopment city.
Mrs. Schlyfestone said that she
and her husband were thinking
about aliya before the Six-Day-
War. "Irving was ready to volun-
teer in May, but he couldn't go be-
cause of the travel restrictions."
Tensions in Israel don't bother
her, said Mrs. Schlyfestone, who
added that "there are just as
many tensions living in America."
"I feel that it will be good to
bring up our children so they are
actually living Judaism." She said
that there has been much excite-
ment about aliya among teen-agers
at Bnai Israel. (The congregation
is planning an oneg Shabat in the
Schlyfestones' honor Feb. 23.)
Mrs. Schlyfestone said that her
father, a New York pharmacist,
and her mother plan to join them
in Israel.
Rebecca, whose great-grand-
father was invited to the First
World Zionist Congress, recently
remarked to her mother, "Just
think, all your grandchildren will
be sabras."

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Income Tax Return: Personal Extemptions
You as a taxpayer are allowed
a personal exemption of $600. In
addition, if you are 65 or over
by the end of the year, you are
entitled to another $600 exemp-
tion. An additional exemption of
$600 for blindness is also allow-
ed. It would be possible for the
taxpayer to have personal exemp-
tions totalling $1,800.
If you file a joint return, your
wife could also claim any of the
above exemptions to which she is
entitled.
If you file a separate return,
you may claim the exemption(s)
for your wife only if she has
gross income and was not the de-
pendent of another taxpayer. If
your wife has gross income, you
may claim her exemption(s) only
if she files a joint return with
you.
A husband or wife cannot be
claimed as a "dependent." So,
there is a difference between per-
sonal exemptions and dependency
exemptions.
You are always entitled to the
full exemptions even if your spouse

died before the end of the year,
as long as the conditions qualify-
ing the exemption existed at date
of death.
JWV to Examine Soviet
Arms Supply to Arabs
WASHINGTON—National Com -
mander Samuel Samuels of the
Jewish War Veterans of the USA
made known that his organization
is taking steps "to assure that
sight is not lost of the Communist
drive to penetrate the Middle East
at a time when we are strongly
involved in the Far East."
He revealed that the JWV Na-
tional executive committee will
take a first-hand look at the Com-
munist involvement in the Middle
East and Mediterranean this month
when the JWV body meets in
Israel.
Israeli leaders and military offi-
cials will brief the Jewish veterans
not only on the massive Soviet re.
arming of radical Arab states but
also on the growing Russian naval
buildup.
A
Committee Hopes
to Relocate Aged
in Dexter Area
A housing relocation committee
of the Jewish Family and Chil-
dren's Service is studying the pos-
sibilities of finding housing for
aged persons now living in the
area touched by riot last summer.
Many of those living in the riot-
affected area have expressed the
desire to move; they cannot walk
at night, and they are isolated
from shopping centers and houses
of worship.
The committee, under the chair-
manship of Joseph Garson, has
met with representatives of the
state and county departments of
social welfare to discuss the cur-
rent shelter allowance and what
can be done to increase the total
income of those under public as-
sistance. Not only is housing in
northwest Detroit and Oak Park
usually not available, but the high-
er rentals cannot be met with the
allowance now given to aged per-
sons on public assistance.
These aged residents in the
"Dexter area" are now being in-
terviewed to determine their needs,
and the resulting proposals will be
submitted to the board of the
JFCS and to the Jewish Welfare
Federation. It is believed there
are some 160 aged persons af-
fected.
