THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Golda at Day Center Ground Breaking

Israel Prime Minister Golda Meir tosses the first trowel of cement
to lay the cornerstone for a new Pioneer Women day nursery in
memory of Henia Sharef, late wife of Israel Housing Minister
Ze'ev Sharef. The nursery, with capacity for 105 children, will rise
in the new housing development on French Hill, in Northeast
Jerusalem. Pioneer Women, through. Moetzet Hapoalot in Israel, is
the major operating agency for day-care centers in that country.

First Jew Elected Head of Canadian Federal Party

OTTAWA (JTA)—David Lewis,
Socialist member of Parliament
from Toronto, has been elected
here as the leader of the New
Democratic Party, Canada's third
largest political organization.
He defeated James Laxer, Marx-
ist-Socialist head of the party's
radical wing, by a 1,046-612 vote
on the fourth ballot, becoming the
first Jewish leader of a Canadian

federal party.
The 61-year-old Lewis, a promi-
nent labor lawyer and politican for
30 years, came to Canada five
decades ago with his Polish-Jew-
ish parents. He has been deputy
leader of the NDP since 1961
and was first elected to the House
of Commons in 1962. His son Ste-
phen was recently elected presi-
dent of the Ontario NDP.

Peled Predicts USSR Exodus Will Increase

By GEORGE FRIEDMAN,
JTA Staff Reporter
A prediction that Jewish emigra-
tion from the Soviet Union will
reach record numbers this year
was made this week in an exclusive
Jewish Telegraphic Agency inter-
view by Natan Peled, Israel's min-
ister of immigrant absorption
since last year. He said the exodus
this year will exceed the 3,000 of
1969, and discounted reports that
the exit door would be nailed up
following the Soviet Communist
Party Congress. There has been
"no decrease whatsoever" since
the congress closed, he said. The
57-year-old Peled, himself Russian-
born (he changed his surname,
Friedel, to the Hebrew word for
steel), remarked that the Soviet
authorities are themselves uncer-
tain on the issue and have "no
definite policy" on it.
(This observation contradicted
the widely held view that the
Kremlin is essentially opposed to
letting out citizens who may bol-
ster the Israeli Army)
Peled contended that the emigra-
tion approval to "hundreds" of
Soviet Jews to date represents "not
a major policy decision" but an
experiment. He rejected the idea
that the Kremlin is letting out the
activists and will shut the door
after they leave;. for every activist
who departs, he said, five or 10
others take his place. Peled, who
strongly endorses diaspora demon-
strations for Soviet Jewry, reported
a dialogue he had on the matter
with Meir Wilner, head of Israel's
pro-Moscow Rakah Communists.
Wilner, he said, insisted that
actually only "very few" Soviet
Jews want to leave, to which he
responded, to Wilner's apparent
discomfort: "Let them go and the
question will • be closed."

Medics Demonstrate

TEL AVIV (ZINS) — Scores of
medical students at Tel Aviv Uni-
versity demonstrated on the day
of dedication of the city's new
museum. They carried placards
proclaiming "Hospitals are more
important than museums."
Israel's hospitals are experienc-
ing a grave financial crisis which
can be met only by increased ex-
penditures for new facilities and
buildings. Investment in the mu-
seum amounted to 14,000,000 pounds
($4,060,000).

Peled, in the United States under
the auspices of the American
Zionist Federation for speeches
keyed to Israeli Independence Day,
said there were no problems in
providing housing for the con-
stantly arriving Soviet Jews. There
was also no worry, he said, about
such activists' joining Israel's
anti-emigres who return home be-
cause they become dissatisfied with
life in Israel—because they miss
their relatives or don't like their
work or whatever—they are "very,
very rare." The former minister
to Bulgaria and ambassador to

Austria, holder of one of the two
Mapam portfolios in the Israeli
Cabinet, said his party agreed with
Premier Golda Meir that the solu-
tion of the Middle East imbroglio
lies in "territorial compromise."

spirit. I am full of fear, full of worries, and that is depressing.

Hillel: I understand. We all passed through the Nazi hell. But that is

why I came to Israel, to forget the GALUTH. I said to myself:
"here I have been born again, and live a new life."

Shammai: It's easy to say, but man is not a dumb beast. When one's heart

is filled with worries and fear, it is impossible to be happy.

Hillel: But man is rational. He does something to improve his situation.

Long ago that author, Mark Twain, made fun of the loafers

who cry over bad weather and do not snap a finger to improve it.
