Bnai Brith Executive Seeks Broader Domestic Concern
weeks ago as chief ad-
ministrative officer of the
500,000-member organi-
zation, said Sunday
night, "Important as Is-
rael may be to the scheme
of things and for our
sense of Jewish identity,
it is simply not sufficient"
for the cultural survival
of the next generation of
American Jews.
Addressing the annual
midwinter meeting of Bnai
Brith's board of governors
— his first formal appear-
ance before the organiza-
tion's highest policy body
— Thursz said the "change
in perspective" did not
mean any diminution of
Support for Israel but was
a strengthening of , the
"prophetic tradition"
which had identified or-
ganized Jewish life with
"concern for the general
SEMI-ANNUAL
welfare and demands for
social justice."

SALT LAKE CITY
(JTA)— Emergency legis-
lation aimed at prevent-
ing Arab oil interests
from taking over a com-
pany with major holdings
in Utah was rushed
through the State Legis-
lature last week.
The Utah House of
Representatives adopted
the bill by a 67-0 vote last
Friday, less,than 24 hours
after the State Senate
approved the bill by a
vote of 27-0.

phers would suggest, to

existence on the desire
not to give Hitler a post-

NEW YORK — French
President Valery Giscard
d'Estaing, in Saudi
Arabia this week to sign a
three-year oil purchase
agreement, issued a joint
statement with Saudi
King Khaled calling for
Israel to withdraw from
all territory occupied in

A section of the state-

Arabia's insistence that
Israel withdraw from

the Palestinian people."

with a take-over.
He refused to identify
the company, but others
'said it was the Kennecott
Copper Corporation. -
However, the company
said it knew of no impend-
ing takeover bid.
The bill broadens .a
state law covering quick
stock takeovers of Utah
companies to include not
only corporations with
headquarters in the state
but also those with assets
of more than $125 million
or more than 500 em-
ployees in the state.
It would require 2 ilk
days notice of a takeove
bid.
