Quebec Premier Levesque
Assures Jews of Rights

MONTREAL (JTA) —
Premier Rene Levesque
has assured the - Jews of
Quebec that his program
to enhance the .French
nature of the province
will - not harm "the
natural rights of people."
The leader of the Parti
Quebecois which won a
surprise victory in last
year's provincial elec-
tions, made his statement
at a recent meeting with
representatives of the
Canadian Jewish Con-
gress.
Quebec Jews have been
uneasy over the party's
stated aim to separate
Quebec from the rest of
Canada and its stress on
the French language and
culture. They fear that a
separate Quebec would
have adverse economic
and political effects on
the Jewish commu-nity.
But Levesque told the
Jewish leaders that he
recognized that "Jews be-
long to a different univer-
sal faith and have a un-
ique and natural attach-
ment to the state of Is-
rael." At the same time,
he reserved the right to
criticize Israel without
being branded an' anti-
Semite.
He told the CJC delega-
tion that "Everyone who
speaks-French will be con-
sidered Francophone by
my government." He said
that "Certainly, we don't
have the pogrom mentality
which made national
minorities leave Europe in

Perked Maxim
Rich in Flavor

Maxim Freeze-Dried
Coffee is the favorite of
perked coffee `mayvins,'
because it tastes like
fresh perked coffee.
Maxim starts with
fresh perked coffee, then
it's freeze-dried into big
dark chunks. When it is
perked it has a rich flavor.
Maxim is a good comple-
ment to homemade
hamantashen.

the past." He stated,
"Changes will take place
to help make the province
more French without
harming the natural rights
of people." - -
The premier indicated
that he was knowledge-
able in matters concern-
ing ethnic minorities in
general and the Jewish
minority in particular.
The delegation asked
him to recognize the trad-
itional rights of the
Jewish community as re-
gards day schools and to
understand the require-
ments of Jewish social
services. He expressed
astonishment to learn
that about 20,000 Jews in
Quebec province live
below the poverty line.

The Scoliosis Club will
meet 8 p.m. Thursday in
Kennedy Elementary
School, Southfield.
Guest speakers will be
Carl Brenner, orthotist,

Like a Zionist'

Young last Staruday for

such remarks "were re-
grettable in view of the
fact we are fighting for
