E.German y and Human. Rights . BY WARREN FREEDMAN East Germany. a very repressive regime, has been restive since August. 1975 fcllowing the signing of the Helsinki accords and the emphasis on detente. The result has been a grow- in6 dissident problem be- cause of the violation of basic human rights. There are about 5.000 po- litical prisoners in East Ger- many today. The govern- ment denied the return from West Germany of folk singer Wolf Biermann. and this started a chain of mass protests : and dissident pro- fessor of physics HaVemann has recently been placed under house arrest. Indeed the continued vio- lation of human rights by the East German Govern- ment shows that since Au- gust, 1975. 100.000 East Ger- mans have applied for per- mission to leave East Ger- many. But after the government decided to clamp down on dissident ap- plications for exit visas. less than 500 East Germans made applications per month.

LICENSED ELECTRICIAN TORONTO (JTA)—Four Canadian Jews were among the 62 listed in the Order of Canada honors list released by the Canadian govern- ment. -G. Sydney Halter. a Win- nipeg lawyer, known_ as the "Czar of Canadian football" and the first Canadian Foot- ball League Commissioner, was named an Officer of the Order. Sol Kanee, also of Winni- peg, a lawyer who was for- merly president of the Cana- dian Jewish Congress and a former director of the Bank of Canada, was named an Officer of the Order as was Jewish Education Has Lasting Value COLLEGE STUDENTS Insured Canada Honors Jewish Notables secondary schooling has a "positive residual effect" on the way adults live Jew- ishly and on the values they consider important in rais- ing their families, accord- ing to a wide-ranging sur- vey initiated and sponsored by the Committee- on Jew- ish Education of the Feder- ation of Jewish Agencies of Greater Philadelphia (FJA). The pioneering survey— the first of its kind ever at- tempted in the United States—concluded that, in an overwhelming number of cases, intensive Jewish education does indeed in- crease Jewish commitment in later life. This increased com- mitment is reflected on every level—personal obser- vance, synagogue and or- ganizational membership and activity, ties to Israel and personal perceptions of the importance of Jewish values on family life and lifestyles. In addition, less inter- marriage was found among those whose education was intensively Jewish—and they consider the issue to be of greater importance. Today emigration from East Germany is impos- sible. and every applicant for an exit visa is officially told that he will lose his job and even go to jail if he complains publicly. Only pensioners and extreme hardship cases are allowed to leave for the West today. The number of illegal emi- grants from East Germany has been increasing. In 1975 there were 6,011 illegal emi- grants and__ in recent months that figure has been surpassed. The East Ger- man government in April 1976 began extending the physical limits of the Berlin Wall. and there has been an increase in the number of indiscriminate shootings at border crossings. One of the most vicious East German government practices is to put up for adoption the children of those parents who flee to the West. The empathy of the West German govern- ment prompted discreet ne- gotiations with East Ger- many so as to bring about the reunification of 1,393 children with their families in the past five years. While East Germany in- sists that the free move- ment of persons and the free flow of information are not rights, but privileges to be conferred by the East German government, the fact remains that the Hel- sinki accords have given hope to the people of East Germany as an appeal to their own government. Ancient Yeshiva Found in France re- NEW YORK—The mains of what may have been one of Europe's oldest yeshivot have apparently n uncovered in excava- tions in Rouen in Northern France. According to the New York Times, the discovery and location of the struc- ture, a large Romanesque building dating from the 11th or 12th Centuries, had been predicted by an Ameri- can specialist in Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic studies, Prof. Norman Golb of the University of Chicago, who reached his conclusions from a study of medieval manuscripts. When the building was unearthed, scholars thought it to be a synagogue, but when they found there was no niche for a Torah, they supported Prof. Golb's con- tention that it was a ye- shiva. THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, August 12, 1977 53 `James Last Plays Stolz' Best-Selling Record in Europe From Vienna comes a new record whose tunes are certain to delight and to capture the admiration of music lovers. James Last Plays Rob- ert Stolz, - the title of the new LP record, justly links the names of two great mu- sicians : one is the inter- preter, the other the com- poser. - The late Robert Stolz's name has been perpetuated among the great of modern times. It is no wonder that a young modernist who has gained wide fame in the music world should have de- voted himself to produce one of his best recordings, that James • Last should have added glory to the memory of Robert Stolz. The new record is James Last's modern inter- pretation of Robert Stolz's works. The remarkable ar- rangements from 22 of Stolz's songs include: "Salome" ( - Romeo"), `Two Hearts in Waltz- ROBERT STOLZ time," and songs from the "White Horse Inn." As the recipient of 129 Golden Discs during the past decade, James Last came to the Stolz tradition with a remarkable record that is now enhanced by his "James Last Plays Robert Stolz. - which has become a best seller throughout Eu- rope and is now being in- troduced in this country. Ex-Nazi Jailed for Killing Jews BONN (JTA)—A Ham- burg judge imposed a four- year prison sentence on Ger- hard Maywald, a former SS officer found guilty of com- plicity in the murders of 320 Jews at the Jungfernhof camp near Riga in Febru- ary 1942. The victims. mostly el- derly and infirm inmates. were selected by Maywald for shooting, according to the charges. An earlier in- dictment for murder as well as complicity was dropped by the prosecution after the judge ruled that there was insufficient evi- dence. The case against May- wald, now. 64,_ had been under investigation for the past 15 years. The judge ex- plained the -light sentence on grounds that the accused was penalized during that perior. The judge also as- serted that Maywald was not a Jew-hater although his superior officer was known to be. However. the defendant's not guilty plea was re- jected. The judge said May- wald could not claim that he was forced to carry out orders because he could have asked for transfer to another post, knowing that staff officers at Jungfernhof were expected to take part in the shooting of Jews. About 30.000 Jews were shot there in the summer of 1941. Australian Jew to Be Head of State MELBOURNE (JTA)— An eminent academic, law- yer and a leading member of the Jewish community, Sir Zelman Cowen, was ap- pointed last week as Aus- tralia's next Governor-Gen- eral. The appointment - was announced simultaneously in London and Canberra by Queen Elizabeth on the ad- vice of Australia's Prime Minister, Malcolm Fraser. U.S.-- Israel Tourism Is Up NEW YORK—Tourism from the United States to Is- rael for the first six months of 1977, is 21 percent ahead of 1976, according to Israel Zuriel, Israel commissioner for tourism in North Amer- ica.. Some 126,000 Americans have visited Israel so far this year, compared with 104,000 in the same period of 1976. "Almost 30 percent of all tourists to Israel are Ameri- cans." Zuriel added. "Dur- ing the first half of the year almost 460.000 tourists vis- ited the country, and 1977 is projected to be Israel's best year ever for tourism." Sir Zelman, 57, is vice- chancellor of the University of Queensland, Brisbane, a former dean of law at the University of Melbourne, and has taught at Harvard and Oxford Universities. He replaces Sir John Kerr whose surprise resig- nation was announced after serving only three years of the designated five-year term allotted to the head of state. Sir Zelman is the second Jew, after Sir Isaac Isaacs in the 1930s, to hold the of- fice. Sir Zelman was Sir Isaac's biographer. Israeli Youths at JNF Camps JERUSALEM (JTA)— More than six thousand young Israelis , are taking part in week or fortnight- long summer camps at five Jewish National Fund for- est sites around the coun- try. The main activities at these camps include trips in the surrounding coun- tryside with lectures on its history and geography, study-days on aspects of Zi- onism, and forestry work, including pruning and thin- ning-out of trees.
