Detroit Story League Planning
Jewish Community Expansion

Detroit Story League, a
chapter of the National
Story League, marking its
75th year of activities, an-
nounced its intention of ex-
panding services among
Jewish groups.
Emphasizing that there
are no obligations, that the
activities are conducted
gratis as means of assisting
those unable to read, the
blind and the elderly,
Robert and Ruth Kropel
said readers from their
group will be available to
small as well as larger
groups.
The Kropels can be con-
tacted for the preferred
services at 36639 Vicary,
Farmington, 477 - 5622.
The Detroit Branch of
the National Storytellers
League, was formed in
1912 by Mary Conover,
the city's first children's
librarian.
The national league was
established in 1903 by Dr.

RUTH KROPEL

Richard Syche on the Uni-
versity of Tennessee cam-
pus "to encourage the crea-
tion and appreciation of the
good and the beautiful in
life and literature through
the art of storytelling."
Today, there are more
than 100 adult leagues and
40 junior leagues (members
under age 18).

ROBERT KROPEL

The Detroit group
meets on the third Satur-
day of the month at a
member's home to dis-
cuss each year's theme,
and to listen to two or
three members speak.
Mrs. Violet Altschuler of
Farmington was a winner
in a recent storytelling
competition.

`Carter Diplomacy' Assailed

Editor, The Jewish News:
Your interesting review
of Naddin Safran's "Israel -
the Embattled Ally," citing
a number of excerpts from it
is both instructive and pro-
vocative. The author as-
cribes to President Carter
advocacy of open diplomacy
and partiality to the power
of the spoken word.
If Carter studied Ameri-
can history he would find
that open diplomacy was
one of the tenets of Pres.

Wilson's 14 points for the

peace settlement following
World War I, and Versailles
put an end to it. The current
enlightened practice is that
you cannot conduct a debate
on vital international prob-
lems in public view, but the
results must perforce be-
come public property.
As to the power of the
spoken word, President
Carter's practice could be
more accurately char-
acterized as the confusing
power of contradictory ut-
terances. His statements
may be viewed as analogous
to the action of an insurance
claim adjuster, intent to
deny liability for damages
or injury.
President Carter's
method is that of the pen-
dulum, which oscilates
between two terminals;
in one swing he appears
to be reasonably under-
standing and flexible,
while in the opposite
swing he is the embodi-
ment of downright
"rishes," in his treatment
of Israel; always, of
course, tempered by con-
sideration of the Jewish
vote, remembering that if
New York was in his col-
umn in the election of
1976, it was in no small

measure due to the sup-
port of the Jews of New
York, and Mr. Carter has
future ambitions.
At the present time
President Carter is in the
pendelum swing of the in-
surance adjuster's appear-
ance of open-mindedness,
but make no mistake as the
pendulum begins to revert
in the opposite direction.
Presidents Nixon and
Ford, to whom the author
refers equating their policy

with that of President Car-
ter, do not offer a compari-
son; for their attitude was
wrapped up in Henry Kis-
singer, whose policy was to
placate the Arabs even at
the expense of Israel,
though not necessarily sac-
rificing Israel's vital inter-
est; but a reasonable ap-
praisal of President Carter's
policy does not indicate that
fairness to Israel is one of
his objectives.

Kenyatta — Israel's Loss

Editor, The Jewish News:
A shepherd boy rose from
among us to become the
leader of our people, Israel,
the unifying force in a di-
versity of tribal conflict.
David was hunted by Saul,
accused of inciting against
the government, but went
on to lead us to solidarity
and victory.
This week we are sad-
dened to hear of the loss of
another leader, of another
people, President Jomo
Kenyatta of Kenya, a great
man who rose from similar
circumstances to lead his
people against British col-
onialism, and from times of
foreign occupation to na-
tional solidarity.
We can see many
similarities in the Kenyan
post-war struggle for inde-
pendance and the Israeli
struggle against British oc-
cupation. The struggle to
build an active, strong
economy in a land of ques-
tionable agricultural fertil-
ity and•years of neglect like
the struggle for freedom are
common denominators of
both peoples.
A constant reminder of

our close ties with Afri-
can peoples is the strug-
gle of our Falashan
brothers for freedom in
Ethiopia. As Jews, we too
mourn the loss of Jomo
Kenyatta, a leader of his
people. As Zionists, we
can see in him an exam-
ple of success for the na-
tional aspirations of his
people, similar to our
own David, David Ben-
Gurion.

We remember well the
help of the people of Kenya
in allowing Israeli planes to
land as they returned from
Entebbe during the great
rescue of 1976. President
Kenyatta was instrumental
in the Israeli success.
Though saddened by the
loss, we can look forward to
a time of hope and coopera-
tion between our peoples.
