Israel Marks Memorial Day

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Israel observed Memorial
Day last Thursday to com-
memorate the Six Million
Jews who perished in the
Holocaust and to honor the
Jewish resistance fighters
who battled Nazis in the
ghettos and forests of Po-
land and other occupied
lands during World War IL
As in past years, a somber
mood descended on the
country, very much re-
miniscent of the eve of the
Day of Atonement.

Coffee houses and all
plaCes of entertainment
were closed. The state-
owned radio and television
broadcast low key pro-
grams, mostly devoted to
the Holocaust. The streets

were empty of their usual
crowds and traffic was
sparse.
At 8 a.m. Thursday all
activity came to a
standstill as the nation
observed two minutes of
silence for the fallen
heroes and martyrs. The
Knesset convened in a
special memorial session
— as it has done for the
last five years. The gal-
leries were filled with
survivors of the
Holocaust, the resistance
movement and veterans
who fought the Nazis in
various Allied armies.

There were many non-
Jews present, including
those who had aided Jews in
their time of greatest
travail and foreign dip-
lomats, among them the
West German Ambassador,
Klaus Schuetz.
Deputy Premier Yigael
Yadin told a memorial as-
, sembly at the Yad Vashem
in Jerusalem that it was not

enough for Israelis to re-
member the Holocaust but
to keep reminding the world
of it. "We shall remind the
world that the battle with
the Nazi beast is not yet
over," Yadin said. "They
have been succeeded by
neo-Nazi groups and those
who call themselves sna-
tional liberation groups
.... We shall not allow his-
tory to repeat itself."

The services, at which six
symbolic beacons were kin-
dled for the six million
Holocaust victims, were
attended by President Ep-
hraim Katzir and other pub-
lic figures. A small group of
pickets demonstrated
quietly outside the West
German Embassy in Tel
Aviv to protest what they
regard as a slackening of ac-
tion against Nazi war crim-
inals by the Bonn
authorities and a seeming
indifference toward the
alarming revival of neo-
Nazism and anti-Semitism

in Germany. A petition was
delivered and accepted by
members of the Embassy
staff.
The only jarring incident
was the attempted self-
immolation by artist Andre
Kielczinski who has a long
record of violent demonstra-
tions against West German
authorities over delays in
prosecuting Nazi war crim-
inals. Kielczinski set him-
self on fire opposite the Em-
bassy but his burns were
slight and he was released
from the hospital.

Golda Meir Saluted ork8Oth

TEL AVIV (JTA) —
Former Premier Golda Meir
celebrated her 80th birth-
day at her apartment May 3
in low key because she re-
cently returned from a hos-
pital stay.
She had indicated she
would not receive delega-
tions of well-wishers but did
receive individuals. These
included government offi-
cials and old friends and all
had a bit of cake and a glass
of wine, drinking to her
health and expressing the
traditional hope that she
will live to 120.
