Centers Urged to Help Teen Drug Users THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS El Fatah Boasts Guerrillas Will Meet in Tel Aviv By BEN GALLOB (Copyright 1303. JTA, Inc.) Growing drug use among Jewish teen-agers has spurred many Jew- ish centers to undertake programs to help such young people, and Jewish centers generally should do so, according to a National Jewish Welfare Board official who made a survey on the problem. Moe Hoffman, JWB Washington representative, told a regional JWB convention in Boston that, in accordance with a unanimously- approved JWB public affairs com- mittee proposal last June 26, Jew- ish centers were polled on their reactions to drug abuse, drug edu- cation and information. He said that of 71 centers re- sponding, 66 reported that the drug problem was of "significant interest" to them.

Czech Writer Praises Israel as Garden of Eden PRAGUE (ZINS)—An enthusias- tic article on Israel has just been published in the Prague literary weekly "Listy," official organ of the Czechoslovak Writers' Union. The author, Pyotor Rudazilov, attempts in this article to explain the Arab-Israeli conflict in the light of what really happened, without anti-Semitic and Soviet embellishment. Rudazilov writes: "Within 21 years, the Jews have transformed their small and charming country into a real garden of Eden under the sky, a paradise which many begrudge them and would like to destroy and reduce to ashes and dust. But I assure you, my read- ers—that the Jews will fight and will not allow the enemies to de- stroy what they have built with so much joy."
