MEET YOUR LEADER: To be president of the Coun- cil ofJewish Federations means to be the top leader Of more than 800 organized Jewish communities in the United States and Canada and the chief spokesman for them. They embrace 95 percent of the entire Jewish population in both countries. Morton L. Mandel of Cleveland is now CJF president. Mandel is thus now the top leader of the central body which provides a multitude of services to the communities for their major local, national and international needs, obliga- tions and operations. CJF also provides the basic guidelines on how best to conduct each major community operation. MAN OF ABILITY: Mandel is a man of great ability and of personal warmth and charm. He has a sharp ana- lytical mind and cuts through very quickly into the heart of a problem. He also relates to people very quickly and gains friends easily. In his activities he has gained a multitude of friends among Jewish leaders in this country and Israel. - - His basic principle is quality. He applies this principle in business as chairman and chief executive officer of a multi-million dollar industrial complex of 16 different companies manufacturing a variety of products for the steel, automobile and other industries. He practices the same approach in communal affairs. He is known to be fond of sharing responsibility with the people with whom he works; he lays importance on getting their fullest involve- ment. As CJF president, he will have a very active corps of officers working with him, as well as the broadest coopera- tion of Jewish leaders from all parts of the country. He is systematic and .a planner. One of his ambitions is to bring young people into the highest levels of leadership. He is now in search of able young men and women who are actively engaged in the programs of their local com- munities. He plans to stimulate them to develop their interest in the direction of becoming part of the national leadership-. No newcomer to- Jewish communal life, he has a rich record of recognition as leader on the local, national and international level. Locally, he served as president of the Jewish Communtiy Federations in Cleveland and of the Cleveland Jewish Community Center. He is currently president of Cleveland's United Way. He is the recipient of civic honors, including one by the Cleveland Urban League and the highest award by the Cleveland Jewish Federation. He is a trustee of Case Western Reserve University, at which he was a student. He is also a-trustee of the Mt. Sinai Hospital of Cleveland. On the national level, he served as the president of the National Jewish Welfare Board.- He was vice president of the Countil ofJewish Federations prior to his being elected president. He is a member of the Board of Directors of the Joint Distribution Committee and of the United Jewish Appeal. On the international level he is currently the president of the World Confederation of Jewish Commu- nity Centers, a member of the board of governors of the Jewish Agency, a member of the executive committee of the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture. His wife, Barbara, is on the national board of the Na- tional Couwil of Jewish Women, a trustee of the Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland and holds leadership positions in other Jewish bodies. HISTORIC TURN: Mandel begins his term of presidency at an historic turn in the history of the Council of Jewish Federations. The CJF is now re-examining its purpose and the philosophy which motivates its programs. The original purpose of the CJF has continued since its formation in 1932: to raise the level of the local health and welfare services of the federations, that have evolved into instruments for the general organization of the Jewish community. The CJF — as a collective expression of the federations — has become a force far creative Jewish con- tinuity, survival and enrichment, and for association with the Jewish communities of the world. - For the past two years a special CJF committee has been engaged in a most extensive re-examination of the CJF philosophy and decision-making process. The recom- mendations of this committee will be presented for discus- sion and analysis to the four-day board of directors meeting of the CJF next week. The recommendations will have to be approved by the board and then submitted for adoption to the CJF General Assembly in NoVember. When adopted, they will bring new dimensions into the CJF functions.

Calling the leaks "a dis- ease which taints the entire Israeli political system," Arens told the Knesset plenum that it must be halted immediately. Arens was replying to a motion for the agenda by MK Amos Hadar, who urged the utili- zation of the security serv- ices in order to discover the identity of those responsible for the leaks. Arens pointed to the recent refusal _by the Army Chief of Staff and certain Cabinet members to reveal information to the committee, adding that this in' turn pre- vented optimum decision-making on is- sues of security and de- fense. As a result, four subcom- mittees have been estab- lished in order to conduct free discussion in the small- est forum possible. Noting that only four or five com- mittee members were re- sponsible for the leaks, he said that all appeals to them by him, the Premier, the De- fenSe Minister and Foreign Minister had been in vain.
