THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS 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.

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. and g ue s t s from "third world" countries that have no diplomatic relations with Is- rael would not come. Dr. Goldmann suggested Washington, D.C. as a site for the gathering and said the best time would be next 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.
