the economic problems
plaguing America, two
leading Jewish commun-
ity relations specialists
counseled the plenary
session of the National
Jewish Community Rela-
tions Advisory Council
(NJCRAC) this week.
"With or without us,"
said Seymour Samet, di-
rector of domestic affairs
of the American Jewish
Committee, "the ideologi-
cal and political battle-
ground for minorities in
the year ahead will deal
with new social and
economic policies . . .

others — often with less_
skill and some with less
integrity — will not hesti-
tate to press their views."
At the same session,
Howard Rieger, 'a
nationally-known expert
on urban affairs, urged
delegates to try to rekin-
dle some of the activity
that led to the social re-
forms of the 1960s.
Rieger, director of
community relations and
urban affairs of the
Jewish Community Fed-
eration of Cleveland, said
that such activity is
necessary not only to help
meet the needs of the
country, but also to
"strengthen our own or-'
ganizations."
The plenary is the
highest policy-making
body of the NJCRAC,
which coordinates the
community relations
work of nine national
Jewish agencies and 101
Jewish community
groups across the coun-
try.
Delegates to the annual
plenary session discuss
challenges that will face
the Jewish community it;
the coming year, and
formulate guidelines . for
activities. The, meeting
opened Sunday and con-
cluded Wednesday.
One of the major prob-
lems pointed out by Rieger
is that "the old coalitions
(that worked together for
% social change in the 60s)
have truly died."
Now that the struggle
of the 60s for civil rights
legislation is over,
"economics have become,
to a significant extent,
the present day inter-
group relations agenda.
"Yet this agenda, in
and of itself, in incapable
of generating ongoing co-
alition • activities at the
local level," he said -.

Jewish groups must care-
fully explore new
methods of generating
coalitions.
The first step in this
process, according to
Samet, is for Jewish
groups, like other groups,
to "more clearly under-
stand what we want and
need for ourselves before
we espouse and support
programs for economic
and social change."
Samet described how
Jewish communities are
being hurt by the current
wave of inflation and un-
employment.
He pointed out that
"most Jews live in, or
close to, and are affected
by, regions that are in
economic stress, with de-
clining populations and
waning political power.
"This is a threat to the
health of the Jewish
community, which will
predictably maintain its
largest populations in
areas now threatened by
social, political and
economic decay."
These areas have the
fastest rising cost of 'liv-
ing, and the highest crime
rates. Even though many
Jews are moving to the
suburbs, by and large
their livelihoods are
based in the cities worst
hit by crisis.
But, Samet maintained,
the federal government
has shortchanged these
areas in recent years, He
said that in the Northeast,
25 percent of the Jewish
population live in house-
holds with incomes of
under $8,000 per year.
Jewish college gradu-
ates are among those
hardest flit by lack of
suitable jobs. And even
where Jews are not di-
rectly troubled by job-
lessness, they pay for it.
Unemployment, .Samet
said, has been shown to be
responsible for the higher
crime rate. Furthermore,
the government is forced
to raise taxes to cope with
the various problems
created by lack of work.
Citing further exam-
ples of how Jewish com-
munities are being af-
fected by the crisis of the
cities, Rieger said there is
a drastic need for work in
NEW YORK — The
proposed international
Ladino conference under
the sponsorship of the
World Jewish Congress
has been tentatively
scheduled to be held in
Jerusalem during the
summer of 1978.
