Goldmann to Press
German Reparations

JERUSALEM (JTA) — Dr.
Nahum Goldmann, who
played a major role in the
negotiations that led to West
Germany's payment of rep-
arations to Israel and corn.
pensation to other Jewish
victims of Nazism, may soon
try to get the East German
regime to meet its repara-
tions obligations.
The president of the World
.Jewish Congress said during
a radio interview in Jeru-
salem that he will visit West
Germany shortly in order to
determine East Germany's
intentions. But Dr. Goldmann
said he was not optimistic
over reaching an accord with
the East German regime.

Zuckerman Explains Success of UJA; `Treated
Worse
$33,000,000 Jetport Planned for Eilat Than Aniniaw

By DAVID LANDAU
JTA J Lem Bureau Chief

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
"How do you do It?" Golda
Meir asked Paul Zuckerman
in an incredulous tone last
week. Zuckerman is in Israel
to attend the annual Jewish
Agency assembly. Golda's
question referred to his enor-
mous success as general
chairman of the United Jew-
ish Appeal.

In 1972 Zuckerman's first
year in the UJA post, the
UJA turned over to the Jew-
ish Agency in cash gifts
from American contributors
more than $235,000,000 — a
record figure topping even
the 1967 total. The forecast
for this yeas is even better.
With only one quarter of the
campaign over, 3100,000,000
has already been pledged,
runnling 27 per cent higher
than last year, Zuckerman
said in an interview with the
Jewish Telegraphic Agency.

Zuckerman says it's not
just him alone — he is ably
supported by like-minded de.
votees of Israel among
American Jewish leadership.
Zuckerman sees the UJA
as much more than a mere
fund-raising agency. It was
developing into something
almost
synonymous
with
Jewishness itself, he ob-
served.
In the humanitarian fields
of housing, education and im-
migration absorption, where
the Jewish Agency and con-
sequently the UJA shoulder
the heaviest burdens, the
U. S. Jewish leaders feel
qualified to offer their ad-
vice and experience to the
Israeli authorities. Zucker-
man says this advice is con-
sistently well taken and
never resented. He cites the
Jewish Agency housing com-
mittee, founded by the New
York building magnate Jack
Weiler, as an example of
constructive advice by Amer-
ican Jewish experts.
Zuckerman sought to clari-
fy the differing roles of the

merit, at a four per cent In•
terest rate. Ile himself pur•
chased thousands of dollars
worth each year. Admittedly
In the early years of the
State buyers were wryly

understood it as such.

was asked what he could do

to raise the standards of Is-
raeli peanut butter. Yes, he
said, it did taste pretty poor.
It wasn't the peanuts' fault—
Israel grew the best peanuts
in the world. There was evi-
dently something wrong in
the processing. "I've often
wanted to go to a plant and
see, but I never have the
time. All told, I spend 90
per cent of my time on UJA
work . . ."

The tasks of the two drives

also differed: UJA supported
the humanitarian programs
of the Jewish Agency in im-
gration, housing, and welfare
education absorption. Israel
Bonds income went towards
the industrial and economic
development of the country.
Thus there was no real
rivalry or competition. On
the contrary, the two organ-
izations cooperated in timing
of
events and
arranging

speakers and meetings,
Zuckerman noted.

that a friend of hers had

she said.

The news conference was

German Neo-Nazism
Assailed by Writer

BONN (JTA) — Bernt En-
gelmann, vice president of
the PEN club here, said that
the club has evidence that
neo-Nazism is tolerated and,
to a degree, even encouraged
in West Germany. - Engel-
mann is the author of "Ger-
many Without Jews."
Meanwhile, the Nazi crimes
investigation center in Lod-
wigsburg reported that it had
brought about 10,000 Nazi
war criminals to justice and
investigated many thousands
more cases since it was set
up 15 years ago. A spokes-
man for the center said that
