Shortage of Newsprint Affects The Jewish _News,
Forcing Reduction in News Copy and Advertising
A national problem for all newspapers resulting from
a shortage of newsprint has begun to create serious dif-
diculties for The Jewish News.
In order to overcome the conditions that have arisen,
forcing the size of the paper to a minimum, it has be-
come necessary to condense news stories, to eliminate
repetition and use of photographs, while rejecting ad-
vertising to conform to snace availability.
Our editorial and advertising staffs will be faced with
the responsibility of resorting to proper selections. Every
effort will be made to adhere to our basic policy of pro-
viding the several communities we serve with a total and
thorough coverage of news affecting Jews everywhere.
The summations will aim at total coverage of the
news so that our readers will not be deprived of informa-
tion regarding world Jewry, with the same thoroughness
with which the Israel situation has been covered for us
by our correspondents in many capitals of the world.

Soviet Jews Proving to Be Fly
in Labor Alignment Ointment
Premier Golda Meir and
her ruling Labor Party will
have a run for the money in
elections Oct. 30—and some
of that tough competition will
come from Israel's 30,000 So-
viet Jews.
Permitted at last to vote in
freedom, they appear to be
leaning toward the Likhud
nationalist alignment that
seeks to unseat the present
government. Their feeling ap-
pears, partly, to be out of
antipathy to socialist ideol-
ogy, but they also resent the
low-key pronouncements of
the Israel government on the
struggle of Soviet Jews to
emigrate. And they are over-
whelmingly against Israeli
withdrawal from Arab terri-
tories captured in 1967.
There also is strong sup-
port for religious parties
Defense of Ex-Nazis
Topic of Slackbooks'
AMSTERDAM (JTA)—The
first in a series of "black-
books" in defense of former
Nazis has just been published
here by a former Dutch Nazi
writing under the pseudonym
A. van Hetkamp.
The book concerns the
"crimes" committed against
interned Nazis by camp
guards during the immediate
postwar years.
The book was published by
the "Joachimsthal" f i r m,
which was founded in the
19th Century by a well-known
Jewish publisher specializing
in Jewish subjects.
The present owner bought
the firm in 1969 but was
granted the right to continue
using the Jewish name.
A man should not say: "I
will love the learned and
hate the unlearned," but
rather shall he say: "I will
love them all." — Midrash
Abot d'R. Nathan.
among Jews from the Soviet
Georgian Republic.
The National Religious Par-
ty is getting additional wel-
come support from an un-
likely group: Israeli Arabs.
Encouraged by their voting
pattern in the past (more
than 10,000 voted for the NRP
in 1969), the party has for the
first time set up a special
minorities section in its cam-
paign organization to woo
Arabs to its ticket.
A big surprise was the last-
minute candidacy of former
Knesseter Shulamit Aloni,
tireless fighter for the sepa-
ration of religion and state,
for women's rights and for
civil marriage. She presented
her own list, "The Movement
for Civil Rights," a half hour
before deadline after friends
throughout the country urged
her to do so because she was
not on the Labor Party list
even though she is a mem-
ber of the party's central
committee.
Mrs. Aloni now faces pos-
sible expulsion from the par-
ty because Labor Party cir-
cles view this step as a ser-
ious breach of party disci-
pline.
Kollek Nominated
for Third Term
JERUSALEM (JTA)—May-
or Teddy Kollek was unani-
mously nominated for a third
term by the Jerusalem
branch of the Labor Party.
His nomination ended a
long-standing conflict between
the mayor and local party
leaders over the composition
of the slate to run with him.
Kollek enforced his demand
for the nomination of City
Councilman Meiron Benven-
isti as deputy mayor in
charge of town planning.
Benvenisti has been a con-
troversial figure in the past
because of his criticism of
certain government policies
toward the Arabs.
6—Friday, October 5, 1973
Rabbi Eisendrath forecast
that within the foreseeable
future Jewish religious life in
this country "will be divided
only on the basis of those who
totally bind themselves to
Jewish religious law and
those who do not".
Such a "sharper distinc-
tion", Rabbi Eisendrath felt
"will greatly facilitate the
closer cooperation of Reform,
Conservative and Reconstruc-
tionist movements of Juda-
ism. They are distinguished
oday more by their institu-
tional a n d congregational
structures than they are by
practices. The economy of
-Jewish religious life demnads
that we move more closely
together."
Frequent discussions on an
informal basis are held be-
tween leaders of both the
Union of American Hebrew
Congregations a n d United
Synagogue of America, as
well as the rabbinic bodies,
the Central Conference of
American Rabbis and the
Rabbinical Assembly on a
wide range of subjects.
The board of both the Cen-
tral Conference of American
Rabbis and the Rabbinical
Assembly have met twice
during the last two years in
joint study sessions and their
Israel committees have
worked together on a number
of programs.
