JWB Told Denial of MFN to Russia
Is American, Not Only Jewish, Issue

CLEVELAND (JTA)—The
denial of a most-favored-na-
tion status to the Soviet Union
until it lifts its immigration
restrictions on Jews who
want to emigrate from the
USSR "must remain an up-
front issue because lives are
at stake," Mark E. Talisman,
administrative assistant to
Rep. Charles A. Vanik (D.
Ohio) told some 700 dele-
gates attending the biennial
convention of the National
Jewish Welfare Board meet-
ing here last weekend. "This
is not a Jewish issue," he
said, "it is an American
issue."
William Avrunin, execu-
tive vice president of De-
troit's Jewish Welfare Fed-
eration was re-elected to the
board of directors of the
J'WB.
Daniel Rose of New York
was elected JWB president.
He is director of the Foreign
Policy Association and has
been designated an "expert
adviser" to the secretary of
housing and urban develop-
ment and an "expert con-
sultant" to the commissioner

DANIEL ROSE

of education, Department of
Health, Education and Wel-
fare.
Dr. David Sidorsky of
Columbia University told the
communal leader s from
throughout the U.S. and Can-
ada and representatives from
Israel, Great Britain and
Australia, that U.S. support
for Israel is not only good
for Jews but also a definite
contribution to Amer i c an
foreign policy. He said, "the
defense of- Israel is crucial
for the U.S. in weaponry and
other ways."
Noting that the Soviet
Union is gaining in influ-
ence in the Middle East, Dr.
Sidorsky, a professor of phil-
osophy and consultant to the
American Jewish Committee
Task Force on the Future of
the American Jewish Com
munity, declared that the
ability of Israel. to emerge
victorious made a difference.
"America did a great deal
for Israel, but Israel did a
great deal for America."
Highlight of the JWB con-
vention was the celebration
of Israel's 26th anniversary.
But the celebration was
somber as Rabbi Arthur Lely-
veld of Fairmont Temple de-
clared: "This is not a happy
anniversary. There is wide-
spread discontent—about the
economy, the government and
the military leadership—and
there are even charges of cor-
ruption. And American Jew-
ry watches and waits with
bated breath for a stable gov- -
ernment and for peace."
Shaul Rosolio, inspector
general of the Israeli police,
stated that Israel is "under-
going a, process of reassess-
ment." There is a change of
government. "It is a brushing
inside of old leadership.
There is a re-forming of re-
lationships," he said.
The three major cultural
issues confronting American
Jewish communities were
outlined by Philip Bernstein,
executive vice president of
the Council of Jewish Fed-
erations and Welfare Funds.
He identified those issues
as: American aid, in Ameri-
ca's self-interest in the Middle
East, to help assure the sur-
vival of Israel in peace and
security; the survival of al-
most 3,000,000 Soviet Jews,
as Jews with the ability to
emigrate for those who want
to leave and the right of
those who remain to practice
their religion, provide reli-
gious education and culture;
and to advance as compas-
sionate, creative, learned,
just and moral communities

in America.
Bernstein observed that
"Jewish learning in new corn-
presensive networks of for-
mal and informal programs
must encompass elementary,
high school, university and
adult levels, utilizing the
most advanced tools of edu-
cation and communication."
He said that "A prime tar-
get must be the home and
family, which are the most
profound influences on the
lives of our youth in what
they provide and in what
they neglect.
In a resolution on Soviet
Jewry adopted by the dele-
gates, the JWB reiterated its
own "unwavering support" of
the enactment of the Jack-
son/Mills-Vanik amendments
by Congress and vowed to
intensify efforts on behalf
of Soviet Jewry in communi
ties throughout the country.
In another resolution, the
JWB called on the U.S. Olym-
pics in Moscow becaue of the
"hoots and jeers and anti-
Semitic epithets hurled at
Israeli athletes" at the World
University Games which
were held in Moscow last
year. The JWB called upon
the administration and Con-
gress "to view Israel's needs
sympathetically in its fiscal
1975 foreign aid program."
Delegates were urged to de-
velop a hightened sense of
search for Jewish identity
and for an authentic Jewish
community.
More than 30 young com-
munal leaders received rec-
ognition awardS.
