VOA Broadcast Raises Issue on Possibility of New ME. War

WASHINGTON (JTA)-
The Voice of America, in a
world-wide broadcast on
the 10th anniversary of the
Six-Day War, said that
"The question that haunts
the Middle East today is—
will there be another war—
and when will it come?"
The broadcast said that
President Carter "obviously
realizes that time is not on
the side of peace and that,
if another Middle East war
is to be avoided, the hard
decisions that need to be
made Must be made with-
out much more delay."
The English-language ver-
sion of the broadcast, a
copy of which was obtained
by the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency, did not indicate
who might start- a new war
in the Middle East nor did
it refer to Security Council
Resolutions -242 and \ 338
which call for negotiations
between Israel and the
Arab states and on which
the U.S. government says it
bases its Middle East pol-
icy.
The VOA, an arm of the
U.S. Information Agency
(USIA) receives its policy
from the State Department
and its broadcasts are
cleared by State Depart-
ment officials directly con-
cerned with the issues dis-
cussed.
10th anniversary
The
broadcast said the Six Day
War "did nothing to settle"
the Middle East dispute and
"in fact there are those
who maintain that it made
the conflict worse."
It said that "prospects for
a settlement are better
than they have been at any
time in the past decade." It
noted "tentative moves" in-
cluding "partial Israeli with-
drawal from the occupied
territories," the reopening
of the Suez Canal and
"signs of moderation in in-

fluential Arab capitals—and
above all, a growth of the
sober - realization that first,
a settlement cannot be de-
layed indefinitely; second,
there must be concessions
by both sides; and third,
that no one can profit by an-
other round of fighting."
The VOA said, however,
that "In other respects, the
situation is worrisome ...
Certainly there is deep con-
cern about the results of
the recent Israeli election,
which brought into power a
political party opposed, at
least on the record, to terri-
torial concessions. And as
the months slip away, those
who believe 1977 must be

the year of decision — the
year of a settlement — are
pointing out nothing has yet
been agreed on about how
to resolve the impediment
to the Geneva Middle East
conference, such as the
problem of Palestinian rep-
resentation."

The broadcast said "The
need for negotiating move-
ment grows more urgent by
the day and for this reason,
President Carter's recent
statements on some of the
more sensitive issues in-
volved have not gone unwel-
corned; issues such as the
magnitude of the Israeli
withdrawal, a homeland for

the Palestinians and pos-
sible compensation." The
broadcast did not mention
"concessions" to be made
by the Arabs.

learn at nearby Columbia
University. For the past 10
years, the Uriel Weinreich
summer program in Yidd-
ish language, literature and
culture has been growing at
Columbia University.
Prof. Roskies said he ex-
pected many of the JTS
graduate students will learn
their Yiddish at Columbia
University or in the Max
Weinreich Center of YIVO,
which is also in Manhattan.
He added that neither of
these programs offers de-
grees in Yiddish literature.
He said that he expected
the required courses for the
necessary 30 credits would
involve two years attend-
ance for the new master's
degree.

The only other program
for a master's degree in
Yiddish literature anywhere
in the world, besides that at
the Hebrew University, will
be started in the fall of 1978
by the Jewish Theological
Seminary, the Conservative
institution, according to the
organizer of the program.
Dr. David Roskies, who
taught at the Hebrew Uni-
versity before being named
assistant professor of Jew-
isI L literature at JTS in
1977 designed the program
and will teach_the courses.
The course content will
extend from chivalric me-
dieval tales to modem
American poetry, according
to the seminary. Emphasis
will be on Mendele; Moldier Children Celebrate
Seforim, Sholem Aleichem, Jerusalem Unity

HERE'S THE BOX SCORE:

If you're even thinking about a safe
place to keep those Army discharge
papers, Aunt Sarah's heirloom brooch,
those not-so-fireproof stocks and
bonds, think about parking them in a
safety deposit box at National Bank of
Southfield.
They come in all sizes. The cost is as
low as seventy-five cents a month. And
the peace of mind is beautiful. Most
branches have plenty of "parking"
spaces. Drive right in.
