Rabbi Will Lead

Mission to Cairo

STAMFORD, Conn.,
(JTA)—A local Orthodox
rabbi will lead a group of
about 30 Jews and Chris-
tians from this area to
Egypt on a peace mission.
Rabbi Joseph R Ehrenk-
ranz, spiritual leader of
Cong. Agudath Sholom, said
his group hopes to meet
Egyptian President Anwar
Sadat and tell him that
"Americans, Jews and non-
Jews, support the avenue of
peace and not of war."
Ehrenkranz said the mis-
sion was suggested to him
by Ahmed Esmat Meguid,
Egypt's Ambassador to the
United Nations, when he
met with him at the Egyp-
tian UN Mission in New
York.
The rabbi said the group
will spend four days in
Cairo and then go to Jerusa-
lem for five days.

Mrs. Carter Greets NCJW

WASHING (JTA)—First
Lady Rosalynn Carter and
Presidential Counsel Robert
Lipshutz asked the National
Council of Jewish Women
during their visit to the
White House to give person-
al assistance to Soviet Jew-
ish immigrants and to the
disadvantaged in urban
areas.
About 400 members of the
Council from all parts of the
U.S. were in Washington for
the four-day biennial joint
program institute.
Mrs. Carter personally
shook hands with each of
the visitors in welcoming
them to the White House
and noting the Council's
concern for the problems of
the cities asked the mem-
bers "to excite people, to
reach out to each other in
the cities and challenge the
private sector to invest—not
just funds but personal
efforts."
Lipshutz, whose grand-
parents came from Russia,
said that the number of So-
viet Jewish immigrants
coming to the U.S. "has
increased dramatically"
and predicted "larger num-
bers" will be arriving in
"years to come."
"We need to do all we can
to help them," he said. "It
is up to us as American
Jews to fulfill our tradition-
al role of making certian
that every possible opportu-
nity and assistance be given
these people when they
come, just as was given to
our ancestors two, three or
four generations ago."
He suggested the Council
"take a leading role in
every community where it
has the opportunity" to aid
the Soviet immigrant.
In a demonstration of sol-
idarity with Soveit Jewry,
which it has been support-
ing for years in its program-
ming, the Council took part
in Monday's daily vigil op-
posite the Soviet Embassy
and made a special appeal
for Anatoly Sharansky.

In a statement at the em-
bassy, the Council said that
its 100,000 members "are
appalled at the continuing
imprisonment and impend-
ing trial" of Sharansky and
expressed alarm that six
Soviet lawyers have refused
to represent him or invlove
themselves in his case. "I
can only confirm to the
world what has become a
deeply disturbing fact—re-
peated denials of simple jus-
tice to Soviet citizens."

Detroiter Finds
Goal in Israel

KIBUTZ DEGAN1A- A—
Former Detroiter Larry
Rich left a job with a con-
struction firm to seek some
thing other than materia
gain.
He traveled across the
U.S. and Europe on a mo-
torcycle and finally decided
to make his home in Israel.
Now married and the fa-
ther of a son, Rich lives on
Kibutz Degania A where he
combines working in the ba-
nana grove with writing po-
etry.
Rich said he finds the
kibutz atmosphere con-
ducive to writing poetry and
added his fellow kibutzniks
encourage him and often of-
fer him a car so that he
may travel to meetings of
poets in other parts of the
country.
