Soviet Jewish Refugees Pick Israel
Instead of U.S. as Final Destination

YORK—Welfare
workers in Vienna reported
that a greater percentage of
Jews emigrating from the
Soviet Union are choosing
Israel rather than the U.S.
as their destination.
A refugee official said he
saw no reason for the
change, but added that Mos-
cow has recently been per-
mitting larger numbers of
Jews to emigrate.
Another source said that
recent peace moves in the
Mideast were making Israel
more attractive as a place

to live. Welfare workers and
immigration officials said
they found great interest in
Israel among Soviet Jews.
In Washington, the Justice
Department has announced
that 5,000 refugees from the
Soviet Union, most of them
Jews now at processing cen-
ters in' Rome, will be admit-
ted to the United States un-
der the parole authority
exercised by the Attorney
General.
Attorney General Griffin
Bell indicated that he was
acting to alleviate the back-
log at the Rome centers.
Their entry between now
and next May 1, will bring
to 9,000 the number of So-
viet refugees admitted to
the U.S. in a 12-month peri-
od. An administration
spokesman said the first
would be arriving in the
next few weeks.
Paroles are temporary
permits that allow refugees
to enter the country before
immigration formalities are
completed. They are issued
because the law limits the
number of immigrants ad-
missible in any one year.
Meanwhile, Rep. Joshua
Eilberg (D-Pa. ), chairman
of the House Judiciary Com-
mittee's subcommittee on
immigration, citizenship
and international law, said
he has introduced legisla-
tion to end the piecemeal
approach to the admission

of refugees and to regu-
larize their entry in a nor-
mal flow and for emergency
situations. He said he ex-
pected action on his meas-
ure early next year.
In Tel Aviv Premier
Menahem Begin urged the
entire free world to raise
its voice and increase its
efforts on behalf of Jews
imprisoned in the Soviet
Union and denied the right
to emigrate.
He called for an end of
indifference toward suffer-
ing, persecution and ill-
treatment of Jews in the
USSR.
In a related development,
the KGB—Soviet secret po-
lice—has received govern-
ment permission to extend
for up to six months its
investigation of imprisoned
Jewish dissident Anatoly
Sharansky.
Sharansky's 70-year-old
mother, Ida, said she was
told by a KGB investigator
at Moscow's Lefortovo Pris-
on that permission to contin-
ue the investigation had
been received from the Su-
preme Soviet, the nation's
parliament. ,
Sharansky was arrested
March 15, reportedly on the
capital charge of treason.
Parliamentary permission
is needed to continue a citi-
zen's detention without trial
after nine months lave
passed.
Meanwhile, in Toronto,
the 14 York University stu-
dents who two weeks ago
began a 15-day hunger
strike on behalf of Soviet
Jews called off their fast
after 11 days after a Cabinet
Minister promised immedi-
ate action to press the So-
viet Union for Sharansky's
release from prison.
Norm Cafik, Minister for
Multiculturalism, visited
the university campus and
assured the hunger strikers
he would call on the Soviet
Ambassador to appeal on
behalf of Soviet Jews and
Sharansky. He also stated
that he would ask the gov-
ernment to waive immigra-
tion procedures and accept
Sharansky as an immigrant
if the Soviet agree to re-
lease him.
External Affairs Minister
Donald Jamieson told the
Parliament that he had spo-
ken to Soviet Ambassador
A.N. Yakovlev on behalf of
Sharansky, that the govern-
ment was ready to sponsor
him as an immigrant_ and
that the government was
willing to pass a Cabinet
order clearing his admission
if the USSR releases him.

Christians Reject Proselytizing

NEW YORK—While
many fundamentalist and
evangelical groups are still
dedicated to proselytizing
among Jews, they appear to
be increasingly out of step
with mainstream Christiani-
ty which now more than
ever recognizes a coexis-
tence with Judaism.
This, according to Theo-
dore Freedman, director of
the national program divi-
sion of the Anti-Defamation
League of Bnai Brith, is the
consensus of most of the 13
prominent theologians and
educators writing in the cur-
rent issue of ADL's quar-
terly interreligious bulletin,
"Face to Face." Only one, a
fundamentalist theologian,
argued to the contrary.
"The term `Christian mis-
sion to Jews' is slowly being
transposed into a need for a
fresh look into the meaning
of Christianity and the ex-
