NEW YORK (JTA) — A
special meeting of the board
of directors of the Union of
Orthodox Jewish Congrega-
tions of America decisively
upheld a previous decision of
the board to suspend the or-
ganization's participation in
the Synagogue Council of
America.
The new meeting was
called at the request of some
board members because of
their feeling that the mo-
mentous nature of the 1SSUC
required a special meeting
to specifically consider this
qu6stion.
The March 14 meeting was
attended by a majority of the
150-member board with sig-
nificant out-of-town repre-
sentation.
The decision of the earlier,
Feb. 7, board meeting to
suspend UOJCA participation
in the Synagogue Council de-
veloped from its considera-
tion of an i t e-m on the
agenda, namely that of fram-
ing an Orthodox response to
the vigorous - campaign
against amending the Law of
Return in Israel, being waged
by the American Reform and
Conservative groups.
The Feb. 7 resolution "sus-
pended the participation of
the UOJCA in the Synagogue
Council of America forthwith,
in order to underscore the
fact that the Torah _commu-
nity has never granted re-
ligious legitimacy to crevia-
tionist movements."
The board further resolved
to direct President Harold M.
Jacobs - to appoint a study
committee to review the un-
ion's membership status in
the SCA and to report to the
plenary session of the UOJCA
national convention in No-
vember, in order to arrive at
a final determination of the
union's relationship with the
Sy nagogue Council of
America.
HAIFA (ZINS)—"There is
little danger of a militariza-
tion of Israeli politics, but a
real threat. that the military
will be politicized." This is
the -conclusion reached by
two Haifa University_ profes-
sors who have just completed
a study on this theme.
According to the findings,
most of Israel's high-ranking
officers, on retiring from ac-
tive duty, seek new careers
in business and administra-
tion rather than in politics.
Of 75 top military figures
who left the army from De-
cember 1950 through Febru-
ary 1974, 24 went into the
business world, 18 are -em-
ployed in the -armaments in-
dustry, 12 have academic
posts, and only eight are
active in politics and gov-
ernment. Most officers who
chose politics have affiliated
with various factions of the
ruling Labor alignment.
As for the intrusion of
politics into the army, the

Endorse Ginsburg
for ZOA President
PHILADELPHIA — Arnold
R. Ginsburg, corporation law-
yer and a Zionist leader for
many years, has announced
that he will be a candidate
for election as national pres-
ident of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America at the Na-
tional ZOA convention in
New York in June.
The Philadelphia Zionist
Organization, of which Gins-
burg was president in 1955-
1957, has endorsed his candi-
dacy at a board of directors
meeting in February.
`Egyptians Plan
to Demand Israel
Pay Reparations'
LONDON (ZINS) — The_
London Economist reports
that Egyptian planners have
prepared elaborate develop-
ment schemes calling for
huge capital outlays, but the
sources are unknown.
One such project involves
rebuilding the city of Suez
to 10 times its former size,
linking it to the Sinai Penin-
sula by a tunnel under the
canal and erecting a network
of industrial plants and re-
fineries.
Other targets for recon-
struction, Port Said and Is-
mailia, carry a price tag of
$8.000,000,000.
Part of the financing is ex-
pe-cted in long-term loans
from Japan ($240,000,000.), the
World Bank ($100,000,000)
and the Chase Manhattan
Bank ($80,000,000).
The main source, however,

study states that the, situa-
tion reached a danger point
in the Yom Kippur War. The
authors claim that military
efficiency was bypassed in
favor of officers who hew to
the dominant party line. This
practice, once rooted out by
the late David Ben-Gut ion in
the first years of statehood,
has been revived, according
to the authors of the study.

threat to army morale, they
say, than applying a -- politi-
cal yardstick in the naming
of officers to positions of

Hbtel School Open

JERUSALEM — Tourism
Minister Moshe Kol formal-
ly opened the new Tadmor
Hotel School here, saying it
would welcome students from
the West Bank and the Gaza
Strip in addition to Israelis.
He said he would propose
opening the school to Jor-
danians as well when coop-
eration between that country
and Israel made it possible.
The school is at the Reich
Hotel in Beit Hakerem and
presently offers courses for
chefs and waiters. Later
courses will be opened for
reception clerks, housekeep-
ers and managers.
SOFIA (JTA) — The gov-

"Order of the Popular Re-

Spanish Civil War against
Franco and who was a pris-

centration camp in France,
is a former secretary of the
Bulgarian Jewish Central
Consistory. He also was a
member of the Central Union
