THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Economist Friedman Will Get Hebrew U. Honorary Degree TEL AVIV (JTA)—Prof. Milton Friedman, the Nobel Prize-winhing American economist, is on a visit to Israel during which he will REMEMBER THE BLUE BOX AND EVERYTHING IT STANDS FOR ON EVERY IMPORTANT OCCASION. 968-0820 be awarded an honorary de- gree by the Hebrew Univer- sity. Friedman, a conserva- tive, has been proposed by Likud as an economic advis- er to the Israeli govern- ment, but in a statement at Ben-Gurion Airport he said he did not have the neces- sary data conditions in Is- rael to suggest a solution for its economic woes. However, Friedman . sought to clarify a major point of controversy over his economic theories, namely that fighting in- flation requires unemploy- ment. He said he did not favor unemployment, but WE GOT YOU COVERED that a certain reduction in. the rate of employment is usually a phenomenon that accompanied anti-inflation measures. He said he did not know of any country in which the fight against in- flation did not entail a tem- porary reduction of the em- ployment rate. In that connection he men- tioned West Germany and Japan which tackled in- flationary problems in 1948: He said the measures taken in Chile after the military junta overthrew the Allende government were too ex- treme, but the outcome was that Chile's inflation rate was reduced from 25 to five percent per month. Suggestions that Israel would have to endure a higher unemployment rate to combat inflation were de- nounced by Histadrut after Finance Minister Simha Ehrlich suggested following Likud's election victory in May, that Friedman should be invited to advise theliew government. Tuesday Ilista- drut released a statement challenging the economic concepts on which Fried- man based his ideas. Jews for Jesus Sue Church American Jewish Com- mittee, said that as recent- ly as 1973, "more than 90 local councils of churches throughout the country in- volving Roman Catholics, Protestants and evangelical leaders, including Dr. Billy Graham, forthrightly re- jected such efforts to target the Jewish community, and especially Jewish young people, as objects for their soul-snatching."

Rev. Jack Alford, - execu- tive director of the 600- member Council, said the Jews for Jesus lawsuit "proves the point" of the Council letter. 'He said the Jews for Jesus "would like to deny us our rights pro- tected under freedom of speech and freedom of reli- gion." He said the outlook of the Jews for Jesus group was the kind "spawned in some fascist and commun- ist countries." Tanenbaum said that the Long Island Council "stands on absolutely firm ground in charging Jews for Jesus, the Bnai Yeshua and other so-called Hebrew- Christian movements with subterfuge." He said he could demon- strate "to any fair-minded person abundant evidence that Jews for Jesus and the allied Hebrew-Christian groups have consistently en- gaged in fraud, deception and the morally offensive actions of manipulating -and trivializing Jewish sacred articles as well as Jewish religious beliefs." Alford said his organiza- tion stands by the letter which led to the lawsuit. The letter was *sent last Feb- ruary to the 600-member churches and to the 200 Long Island synagogues. .
