Says Jewish Education
`Too Wrapped Up in Past'
NEW YORK (JTA)—The national
director of Bnai Brith's adult Jew-
ish study program sharply criti-
cized Jewish education for being
"too wrapped up" in what Judaism
and Jewish life were in the past
and not active enough in interpret-
ing the concepts of Judaism so that
individual Jews can find answers
to current social and moral issues.
Mrs. Lily Edelman spoke at the
annual meeting of the Bnai Brith's
commission on adult Jewish educa-
tion. She urged the Jewish com-

UNITED NATIONS—Syria com-
plained here Tuesday in a letter to
the Security Council and the Gen-
eral Assembly against what it
called a "flagrant violation" by
Israel "of the elementary norms of
international law and civilized be-
havior and of scores of United
Nations resolutions" by allegedly
planning to colonize the occupied
Golan Heights. The letter describ-
ed the Heights as "Syrian terri-
tory."
According to the Syrian ambas-
sador to the UN, George Tomeh,
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency

tal to 32." Through such a plan,
the envoy declared, "the Israeli
occupying authorities have recent-
ly decided to intensify and widen
further the scope of their preda-
tory designs in the Syrian occupied
territories."
The letter cited an entry in
the American Jewish Year Book
allegedly showing that the Jew-
ish Agency was interested in
support to an agency
which, by virtue of the Israeli sta-
tus law, is but an integral part of
the government of Israel and
whose main activity is the colon-
ization of territories belonging to
a state member of the United Na-
tions occupied as the result of the
Israeli war of aggression on June
5, 1967, constitutes a flagrant
breach of the charter of the
United Nations, as well as a seri-
ous violation of international law."
Tomeh asked in his letter that
"the necessary steps be promptly
taken to ensure the inviolability of
the Syrian territory and of the
liquidation of the consequences of
Israeli aggression." The letter did
not request that the Security Coun-
cil meet on the complaint, but ask-
ed that it be circulated as an offi-
cial document of the council and
the assembly.

Book Due; Seen as
Being 'Provocative'
Predicting that it will be "con-
troversial and provocative," Panth-
eon Books this week announced
the publication of "Israel and the
Arabs" by Maxine Rodinson.
The commendation of the book
by Arnold Toynbee, noted for his t
antagonism to Zionism and to Is-
rael, is an indication of what's to
be expected.
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Prime
Minister Levi Eshkol voiced high
praise for President Lyndon B.
Johnson.
Eshkol disclosed the contents of
farewell messages exchanged be-
tween himself and Johnson.
Eshkol praised Mr. Johnson's
conduct "during the period of
storm and stress, in May and June,
1967" when "the President showed
his understanding of our position
and opposed every attempt to
widen the scope of the dispute be-
yond the Israel-Arab context." He
said that immediately after the
Six-Day War, Mr. Johnson "laid
down the effort to achieve perma-
nent peace in the Middle East as
the foundation of his country's
policy. When peace comes, and I
am convinced it will come," Esh-
kol said, "President Johnson's his-
toric contribution will be appre-
ciated."
The exchange of notes dealt
mainly with the water desalination
project. Cabinet Secretary Michael
Arnon revealed. He noted that
Johnson's request for an appropri-
ation to cover a large part of Is-
rael's desalitnation needs did not
amount to final approval since the
measure has to pass the Congress
along with the entire budget for
fiscal 1969. It was learned that
U.S. and Israeli negotiators agreed
last summer on a desalination proj-
ect that could yield 40,000,000 gal-
, Ions of desalted water daily—about
5 per cent of Israel's require-
ments—and provide between 200
and 300 megawatts of electric pow-
er. The plan, smaller than one
originally envisaged, would be
aided by a 840,000,000 grant to
Israel and a long-term loan of $18,-
000,000, the terms of which would
be negotiated with America n
banks. The agreement did not spe-
cify the type of fuel to be used in
the desalination plant—nuclear or
conventional — but the loan and
grant were not made conditional
on the choice of fuel. The original
plan envisaged a nuclear reactor
for the plant. The choice of fuel
was up to the Israel government.
Eshkol said that President John-
son understood the need for peace-
ful development of the Middle
East and the supreme importance
of water for that purpose. He said
Mr. Johnson showed great interest
in desalination when he and Mr.
Eshkol first talked in Washington
in 1964 and that they had been in
constant contact on the subject
ever since.

Arab Judge Candidate
for Jerusalem Court
(Direct JTA Teletype Wire

JERUSALEM —Minister of Jus-

mend the appointment of an Arab
judge to the Jerusalem District
Court, it was learned from minis-
try sources Tuesday.
The ministry did not confirm
reports that the candidate selected
was an East Jerusalem lawyer.
Arab lawyers on the West Bank

strike for more than 18 months on
orders from the Jordanian govern-
ment not to practice under Israeli
occupation. Several, however, have
resumed their practice.
