"We discovered," said a young Israeli political scien- tist, "that we are still in the process of building a homeland for the Jews in Israel. My generation took that for granted. We discov- ered in 1973 that we still have not secured the state for the Jews." Dr. Itzhak Galnoor, pro- fessor of political science at the Hebrew University, told the audience at the Jewish Community Council delegate assembly Tuesday evening: "We (Israel) will have to drop the assumption that we can carry only one flag at a time. There is a close in- terrelationship between the domestic situation and the survival of the country." Dr-. Galnoor predicted that if the new government fails to solve the long-range social, economic and religious prob- lems, "there will be a new election within two 'years at the most." He was hopeful that the new trends witnessed prior to the war will resume and that there will be a change in Israel's political structure. "Those going into politics are not the best young people. Politics is too important to leave to the politicians." Dr. Galnoor, visiting pro- fessor of political science at Wayne State University, said there must be a change in Israel's, electoral s y stem away from the present party structure and toward a more regional representation. Although it's too early to assess the full impact of the Yom Kippur War, Dr. Gal- noor is certain the recent elections did not reflect that impact. The voter faced "an impossible choice" on the issues of security, punish- ment of the leadership for its "mistakes" in the war and social and economic problems. In 1973, "we lost a certain :Aar Mitzvas, Weddings , .and_ special occasions iGarson Zeltzeri Photography, 559-7876 Congratulations to Ann and Morris Watnick on your wedding anniversary with all our love, Sutchie, Marty & Louis Altshuler Lenore, Mark & Bradley Robinson confidence in our leaclersbifi. We also lost the naive belief that we can remain in a status of no-peace, no-war for. a long time." But none of the parties fully represented the multitude of feelings among the elector= ate, said Dr. Galnoor. "Most important: the changes (in Knesset seats) can't be ex-' plained in terms of hawkish attitudes." (An Israeli hawk, he noted, is simply defined: "One who answers No to the question: `Given a real peace with the Arab countries, are you ready to give back the ter- ritories?' The so-called hawks believe there is no chance the Arabs will sign a real peace, and thus territory is the best way to preserve peace." With the hardening of the Arab position prior to the war, the entire political structure had moved a sten to the right.) - When David Ben-Gurion bolted from Labor to form the Rafi Party, - his action was interpreted as a grand- stand play. "The more time passes," said Dr. Galnoor, "the more people appreciate what Ben-Gurion was saying. We cannot neglect social fac_ tors." In other countries, dissatis- faction would have led to_ a change of party in power. But with the 1967 war came the creation of a unified gov- ernment. The intervention of outside forces brought the reinforcement of .the political leadership. and stopped the normal process of many de- velopments that otherwise would have taken place, said Prof. Galnoor. Dr. Galnoor, who served on the Sinai front during the Yom Kippur War, said he is convinced that in case of an external threat, Israel is as AJCongress Maps Art Show, Auction American Jewish Congress will sponsor an art exhibit and auction at the Park West Galleries 3 p.m. S u n d a y.

"We are at a turning point in the history of Israel and the Jewish people," he said: "It is a s crucial a moment as the. declaration of inde- pendence in 1948. What we do and do not do will influence the future of the Jews." Prior to Dr. Galnoor's talk, Lewis Grossman's name was proposed for the presidency of the Jewish Community Council in a report by the nominating committee chair- man, Dr. Shmarya Kleinman. Grossman, c u r r e nt vice president of the Council, is the delegate from the De- troit Service Group. (See other nominees below). Council Executive Direc- tor Alvin Kushner announced that Council will participate with Sinai Hospital in a Tay- Sachs Disease screening pro- gram this spring. The Jew- ish Community Foundation has approved a grant to en- able Sinai to conduct the screening of Jewish couples prior to marriage and having children. Tay-Sachs, a gene- tic disease, afflicts Jewish in- fants whose antecedents come from a certain part of Eastern Europe. Bnai Brith Women has played an active role in the Council effort to bring the problem to the at- tention of the community. Kushner also reported that ,000 signatures were gathered in one week on petitions calling for Syria to release the names of Israeli prisoners of war. The peti- tions were circulated prior to Syria's release of the list.
