Goldmann: USSR Interested
in Unofficial Ties With Israel
The average man spends
TEL AVIV (JTA) — Dr.
more to celebrate his good
luck than his good luck Nahum Goldmann, president
of the World Jewish Con-
brought him.
gress, said here Sunday that
the Soviet Union was interest-
ed in establishing unofficial
ties with Israel prior to any
peace settlement with the
Arab countries and might
agree to resume formal dip-
lomatic relations if sufficient
progress toward a Middle
East peace was made at the
Geneva conference.
Dr. Goldmann, addressing
a press conference, urged
Israel to reach a peace ac-
cord with the Arabs as soon
as possible because, in his
view, time is working in the
Arabs' favor.
Dr. Goldmann did not name
the sources of his informa-
tion on the alleged intentions
of the Soviet Union. He ob-
served, however, that Mos-
cow wag interested in pre-
serving Israel's existence to
prevent the Arab states
swinging toward the U.S.
He said he had a standing
invitation to visit the USSR
but would go there only if
he is assured of meetings
with top Kremlin leaders and
guaranteed that his visit
would lead to positive devel-
opments for Soviet Jews.
Dr. Goldman said the time
factor favored the Arabs be-
cause their influence and
power was increasing, not
only on the oil leN'iel but in
the economic sphere through-
out the world.
Dr. Goldmann referred to
the forthcoming plenary as-
sembly of the WJC,- which
was to have been held in Hol-
PER
land last month but was can-
celed for security reasons.

PhDs Outnumber
Longshoremen
ASHDOD (ZINS) — Israel's
work force is suffering from
an imbalance — there are
more academicians than
longshoremen.
Israeli economists explain
that Israel makes greater
effort in increasing the num-
ber of academicians, while
it does almost nothing to in-
crease the number of long-
shoremen and other laborers.
As a result, the number of
professors in the universities
is twice as large as the num-
ber of longshoremen working
at the ports.
Something's Rotten
in Denmark .. .
TEL AVIV — A magistrate
fined Avigdor Levi $240 and
confiscated 188 pornographic
films worth $3,700 which he
had smuggled into Israel.
Levi protested that "In
Denmark, pornographic films
are permitted and are even
educational to a certain ex-
tent." Magistrate Arie Even
didn't buy the argument.

Dr. Goldmann suggested

December when Congress is
in recess.
Dutch Honored
for Resisting
Oil Blackmail
NEW YORK (JTA)—The
people of The Netherlands
are being given a prominent
social justice award for their
friendship towards Israel and
refusal to be blackmailed by
the Arab boycott or terror-
ism.
The 13th annual George B.
Brussel Jr. Memorial Award
of the Stephen Wise Free
Synagogue will be awarded
for the first time to the
people of an entire nation
rather than an individual at
Sabbath services.
The tribute to Queen Juli-
ana and her people will be
in the form of trees to be
planted in the Queen Juliana
Forest in Israel's Galilee
area. On April 30, in observ-
ance of her 65th birthday, the
Queen granted the Jewish
National Fund the right to
name a forest in her honor.
Rabbi Edward E. Klein,
senior rabbi of the congrega-
tion, assistant Rabbi Sally J.
Priesand, and David von G.
Albrecht, president, will sym-
bolically plant trees at the
oneg Shabat after - the reli-
gious service.
The award, named for
Brussel, a leader of Reform
Judaism and a former vice
president of the synagogue
and chairman of its -Social
Action Committee, is given
for "causes of individual free-
dom and social justice."
In Amsterdam, Dutch Jew-
ry remembered its loved ones
lost in World War II and
those whe fell in the four
Israeli wars in an annual
memorial ceremony.
The ceremony, held in the
courtyard of the "Hollandse
Schouwburg," the former site
where the Nazis gathered
Dutch Jews to be deported
to German concentration
camps, was jointly sponsored
by all Dutch Jewish groups.
Volunteer Rate Up
for Israel Army
JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
Since the Yom Kippur War
the number of citizens vol-
unteering for regular duty
with the Israeli armed forces
has soared.
Enlistments peaked in
February, the number of vol-
unteers being 23 per cent
greater than for the same
month in the previous year.
Despite the casualties as a
result of the war, volunteers
continue to apply in large
numbers for all branches of
the armed services.
If the current rate of in-
ductions continues, Israel
will have, at year's end, twice
the number of men in its
tank corps than it had when
the cease fire of October
1973 took effect.
