The author is Fred Ferretti, a member of the staff of the New York Times, who was a WCBS-TV correspondent during the strike and covered it for his station. The author charged that the depth of black anti-Semitism was greatly exaggerated, and accused Albert Shanker, president of the United Federation of Teachers, of major responsibility for raising and pressing the issue. He said the strike originally began over the decision to give communities con- trol over their schools on an exper- imental basis. Ironically, he said, the report was "bigger news" early this year when some members of the NYCLU protested it as political and forced a debate on whether it should have been issued. According to the writer, the media gave considerable promi- nence to a report issued by the Anti-Defamation League of Bnai Brith charging w i d es pr ea d Opponents of the educational black anti-Semitism during and experiment, he said, "needed after the strike and accusing the something to demonstrate that it city officials of doing nothing to couldn't work, something to ob- ' check it.

"The question now is what les- sons have been learned, and which will be applied? Surely the answer cannot be 'none'.

The newspapers and other media, Ferretti asserted, made no efforts to make Shanker define the terms "extremists" and "vigi- lantes" which, the writer said, he used "at every opportunity." He noted that when the New York Civil Liberties Union issued an in- vestigative report which, he said, accused Shanker of having sys- tematically tried to "sabotage" the experimental school program, "it received scant attention, ex- cept in Harlem's weekly Amster- dam News." 4 weeks $449.00 1-4 months $499.00 between Southfield S. Telegraph Study Assails News Media for Making Issue of Black Bias in School Strike NEW YORK, (JTA) — New York's news media are accused of badly handling the issue of black anti-Semitism raised during the New York City teachers' strike from Sept. 9 to Nov. 18 last year and of failure to "hold the accus- ers accountable for their words and their deeds." 011 'L '1 ISRAEL It's Nice To Deal With Joe Slatkin's A special Thanksgiving service was held in the Chagall Syna- gogue of the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Center for Prof. Shlomo Samueloff.

Shevat 5730 January 8, to February 6, 1970 398-7180 Jewish ational und month JNF Sabbath, Saturday, January 24 TASKS ❑ To avow full solidarity with the State of Israel on its 22 birthday, ❑ To deepen Jewish National Fund sentiment among the masses of the Jewish people. ❑ To focus attention on more than 50 years of Jewish National Fund activities in Detroit in building the land of Israel and strengthening its security with special emphasis on the new challenges facing the JNF since the Six Day Wor. ❑ To meet the desperate needs of the beleagured young state, it has become imperative to reclaim more land for outposts in the most vulnerable areas, in other words, to help estab- lishments all along the border. ❑ To mobiize the broadest possible support for the JNF through the widest possible use of all JNF's traditional collection methods. 1=1 To help in the development of a unified Jerusalem by accepting the Government's request to plant the Jerusalem Park of the Heroes overlooking the Temple Mount, which will be a memorial to the fallen heroes in the Six Day War. ❑ To inscribe your name, or the name of a relative or friend in the Honor Role of the Jewish Peoplethe Golden Book, A new special volume of this treasure-house of Jewish history has been opened in honor of the Reunification of Jerusalem. ❑ To place another thousand Blue-White JNF Boxes in Detroit and Michigan Jewish homes, ❑ To plant more trees in Israel. Israel needs more trees. Trees represent the rekindled strength and lifeblood of the land. Trees conserve the soil. Trees beautify the land. Trees reclaim the wasteland. Trees provide employment and absorb thousands of the state's temporarily unemployed. And trees strengthen our ties with Israel. ❑ To remind Jews to remember JNF in their Wills, thus not only linking their names forever with the land of Israel, but that their legacy will help ALL of Israel. JNF land supports the whole Israel economy—it grows Israel's food—on it stand Israel's religious, educational and welfare institutions. We have before us a colossal task. Just os the JNF strengthened Israel's frontiers and developed border settlements which carried o good share of the burden of the defense struggle, so is the JNF called upon to strengthen existing positions and - to prepare a new wave of land settlements so vital for the future of Israel.
