trend within it for central-
ized control.
In his keynote address to
the AJCommittee's 71st an-
nual meeting at the Wal-
dorf-Astoria, Gold noted
that there are conflicting
tendencies within the Ameri-
can Jewish community.
"On the one hand there is a
recognition of the Jewish
community's diversity and
the need to maintain it," he
said. "On the other hand,
our concern for Jewish
unity increases the pull in

the direction of centralized
control."
Gold also pointed out that
there is concern about dis-
sent in the Jewish commu-
nity which "centers almost
completely on matters re-
lated to Israel."
Gold said dissent must
take into consideration
three assumptions: "Israel,
and the support of Israel,
continues to be a major ex-
pression of Jewish identity
for American Jews"; "the
vast majority of American
Je,WS support Israel's refus-,/
al to negotiate with any
group that is 'committed to
her destruction and endorse
Israel's insistence on direct
negotiations, on a full
peace, with all that implies,
on defensible borders, and
on a united Jerusalem";
and recognition that "Israel
is engaged 'in a life-and-
death struggle' and that the
decisions affecting that
struggle must be made by
her alone."
At the opening - dinner,
Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey
(D-Minn.) received the AJ-
Committee's American Lib-
erties Medallion for "excep-
tional advancement of
human rights and human
dignity." CBS news com-
mentator Eric Sevareid
was presented with the AJ-
Committee's Institute of
Human Relations Mass
Media Award "for his life-
long commitment to the
public's right to know and
his outstanding contribution
to increased understanding
of the critical issues of out
time."

Israel Not Listed

in NY Expo Flyer
Despite Role in It

NEW YORK (JTA)—A
flyer announcing that the
Middle/World Expo '77 will
be held in New York in the
Hilton Hotel June 21-24 does
not include the name of Is-
rael in the list of Middle
East countries to partici-
pate in what the flyer de-
scribes as "The World's
Largest Trade Showcase/
Forum for Products, Tech-
nology and Services."
The flyer shows a series
of arrows representing dif-
ferent areas of the world
pointing toward a photo-
graph of New York City.
The only arrow with names
of countries listed is that
marked "Middle East."
A spokesman for Patents
International Affiliates,
Ltd. (PIA), which is spon-
soring the showcase, said
that Israel as well as Leba-
non and Iran are included
in the list of Near East
countries. However, the
arrow on the flyer marked
"Near East" does not list
any country, nor do the
arrows marked "Central
and South America,"
"Southeast Asia," "Af-
rica," "Far East," "East-
ern and Western Europe"
and "North America."
The spokesman had no im-
mediate explanation of why
Israel, Lebanaon and Iran
are considered Near East
in contrra-distinction to
Middle East countries and
why they are not listed on
the flyer on the Near East
arrow.

Quebec Jews Are Confident

of Their Future in Province

MONTREAL (JTA)—
Quebec Jewish leaders, at-
tending the 18th plenary
meeting of the Canadian
Jewish Congress (CJC) last
weekend stressed their con-
fidence in the future of the
Jewish community in the
province regardless of the
efforts of the ruling Parti
Quebecois to become inde-
pendent of Canada.
"The Quebec Jewish com-
munity is here to stay,"
Joel Pinsky, chairman of
the CJC's Eastern and At-
lantic Region, told a press
conference.
The press conference was
held at the Queen Elizabeth
Hotel after Quebec Premier
Rene Levesque addressed a
CJC luncheon and sought to
assure the Jewish commu-
nity particularly about con-
tinued government aid to
its schools. Following the
talk, newmen were ex-
cluded so that Levesque
and the some 2,000 dele-
gates to the CJC meeting
could hold a "frank and
open expression of opin-
ion."
Levesque received a loud
applause when he said "the
exceptional privilege which
means taxpayers money for
the support of Jewish ele-
mentary schools and for
your religious and linguistic
requirements will not be
abolished."
At a luncheon session,
Judge Sydney Harris, presi-
dent of the CJC, introduced
the Chief Justice of Can-
ada's Supreme Court, Bora
Laskin and announced the
creation of a CJC scholar-
ship in his name. It will be
awarded annually to the Ca-
nadian law student who
best expresses himself in
essay form on subjects re-
lated to Jewish ethics and
law.
Rabbi W. Gunther Plaut
of Holy Blossom Temple,
was unanimously elected

president of the CJC for a
three-year term. Two Jew-
ish community leaders
were awarded the Samuel
Bronfman Medal. Judge
Harris presented one medal
to Saul Hayes, former vice
president of the CJC, for
"for 40 years of service to
the organization." The
other medal was presented
to Judge Harold Lande to
Monroe Abby, a former
CJC president, "for his
many years of service."

telephone tip:

"Two-Party Budget
Service may help you save
money on your phone bur

Two-Party Budget Service is especially designed for people with fixed

incomes, such as retirees. For a monthly charge of only $3.39, plus tax,
this service lets you make 45 local calls a month and talk as long as you
like. Extra local calls you make are 5C each. This is our least expensive
service (a lot cheaper than two-party flat rate service)/
If you think Two-Party Budget Service might be what you need, just
call your Michigan Bell Business Office and talk to
a service representative about it.
