Minister Hits Arab Terrorism;
Urges Worldwide Campaign
Rev. Roger H. Sharpe,'
minister of Woodside Church,
said the acts of terrorism,
continued throughout t h e
world, "have become a way
to exercise force in pursuit
of particular goals for some
groups or individuals. The
Palestinian terror operation
is -at once perhaps the best,
and least known. They con-
tinue to harass, plunder,
murder in the Middle East
almost daily."
In an editoiial in Wood-
side World, Rev. Sharpe
wrote, "We understand that
barbarism and brutality have
been with mankind since its
inception. This is now cou-
pled with awesome weapons
and firepower. It can strike
anywhere through modern
James Bond techniques, jet
transportation and electronic
devices. We also understand
that today we possess instru-
ments through which effec-
tive world opinion can be ex-
pressed."
"We only need to deter-
mine the world has come of
age and by corporate word
and deed act to eradicate
terroristic acts now. That the
UN, the world court and
other international bodies
have done so little in the face
of increasing fear and wan-
ton death only reflects the
impotence of -a more pro-
found moral sense to be alive
and healthy," he wrote.
Rev. Sharpe stated that

"terrorism is not, and can-
not be, the manner in which'
an enlightened world allows
its business to be done, its
problems solved.
He urged that terrorism be
fought and that the world
"establish a new order by
all of the instruments at our
command, for a decent and
orderly process to work out
some very difficult problems
— overcoming oppression,
hunger, poverty, injustice —
which can save us all from a
world of terror."

specialized field can be

The pilot project, Dr. Cohen
stated, is designed to train
such librarians, to fill a gap
in the professional training
of students of library science
who want to specialize in the
field of Judaica, and will also
prove useful to advanced stu- .
dents in the field of Jewish
studies who wish: to famili-
arize themselves with He-
brew manuscripts, and the
techniques of identifying vari-
ous texts.

Atashi-Calls Israel Air Attacks
on Guerrilla Bases 'Preventive'
Ziedan Atashi, Israel Con-
sul in New York called the
recent Israeli air attacks on
guerilla bases "preventive
measures", and said that
they were needed until peace
is achieved.
Speaking to the Rotary
Club of Flint, Atashi was
asked to comment on the
statements made in Flint by
pro-Arab speakers. "I will
refer to this issue from the
point of view of a non-Jewish
representative of the state of
Israel because I am myself
an Arab," he said. "It is un-
realistic to demolish a na-
tion, a state, in order to
establish in its ashes another
state.
"To establish a Palestinian
state instead of Israel is un-
I realistic, but to establish a
Palestinian state besides the
state of Israel is achievable
if the Arabs would support
this approach. We think that
there is enough room on the

NEW YORK—A pilot proj-
ect to train librarians for Ju-
daica collections has been
announced by the Jewish
Theological Seminary.
The new program, under
the direction of Dr. Mena-
hem Schmelzer, seminary li-
brarian, will be launched at
the seminary's New York
campus next January.
Made possible by a special
grant from the National En-
dowment for the Humanities,
the project will offer courses
in the Judaic •aspects of bibli-
ographical research to sup-
plement programs presently
offered by library schools in
New York.
Dr. Gerson D. Cohen, chan-
cellor of the seminary, ex-
plained that the shortage of
professionally trained libra-
rians in the Judaic field to-
day is acute. Major Judaica
collections that survived Nazi
depredations in Europe were
dispersed and are now being
reassembled slowly in this
country, or in Israel, as in-
dividual items reappear on
the book market.
Important collections in
many college and university
libraries, in public libraries,
