Canadian Studies
at Hebrew U.

JERUSALEM — Cana-
dian studies at the Hebrew
University of Jerusalem
were officially inaugurated
recently with a lecture by
the new program's first vis-
iting professor, urban af-
fairs expert, Prof.- Peter
Oberlander of the Univer-
sity of British Columbia.

JERUSALEM (JTA) — A
meeting of top Israeli and
Diaspora Jewish leaders
here failed to reach any con-
clusions on how to deal with
the phenomenon of "nos-
hrim" (drop-outs), Jews who
leave the Soviet Union and
opt to settle in countries
other than Israel.
The meeting was chaired
by Premier Menahem Begin
and Leon Dulzin, chairman
of the Jewish Agency and
World Zionist Organization
Executives.
Later, Max Fisher,
chairman of the Jewish
Agency Board of Governors,
said that "a variety of ap-
proaches" to the problem
were posed. He said that
his position, endorsed by the
others at the meeting, was
to avoid reaching any con-
clusions before a great deal
more study has been made
of the situation.
Accordingly, the Dias-
pora Jewish leaders,
most of them heads" of
major Jewish organiza-
tions, agreed to consider
several proposals, confer
among themselves, and
consult again with the Is-
raeli leadership next fall.
Fisher said that there was
a consensus on the need to
reduce the rising rate of
"neshira" which is now close
to 70 percent and to encour-
age more Soviet Jewish
emigrants to make their
homes in Israel.
One approach, proposed
by Begin, which is under
consideration, would have
HIAS and the Joint Distri-
bution Committee (JDC),
the two American agencies
assisting Soviet Jews who
immigrate to Western coun-
tries, limit their aid to those
emigrants who have close
relatives in the West. Those
who do not would be denied
aid and would be expected to
go to Israel.
That idea was promptly
endorsed by Dulzin. Deputy
Premier Yigael Yadin said
it would make "some con-
tribution" toward reversing
the drop-out trend.
Dulzin, who has fre-
quently referred to the
drop-out problem as a
"calamity" for Israel, had
said earlier that he would
press at this meeting for
"drastic measures" to
solve it. He said on a tele-
vision interview last
night that his own pro-
posal was to deny assis-
tance to all Soviet Jewish
emigres who did not go to
Israel, but that was not
acceptable to the Ameri-
can Jewish leaders. He
said he was "neither dis-
appointed nor happy"
with the outcome of the
meeting.
Dulzin said that if Begin's
proposal was accepted it
would reduce the drop-out
rate.
A number of American
Jewish leaders attending
the Jewish Agency Assem-
bly said that they would op-
pose measures to restrict
the work of HIAS and the
JDC on grounds that every
Jew deserves the right<of

free choice as to where he
wants to live.
At the assembly, leaders
of the Jewish Agency from
abroad were reportedly
more hopeful now than they
were in the past that "Proj-
ect Renewal" is finally get-
ting off the ground.

The project, which
calls for the refurbishing
of some 160 slum areas
throughout Israel, at an
initially-estimated cost of
$1.2 billion, has been held
up virtually since its in-
ception nearly two years
ago by wrangles over
authority and powers be-
tween the agency and the
government, within the
government itself, and
between both and the
local authorities.
According to Fisher, pres-
sure caused by dissatisfac-
tion among United Jewish
Appeal and United Israel
Appeal leaders overseas,
coupled with pressure from
community-leaders in Is-
rael whose communities are
among "renewal target
areas," has finally forced
some energetic stock-
taking.
During the Assembly, an
agreement was reached be-
tween the various agencies
on a streamlined break-
down of authority for the
project in Jerusalem.
Jewish Agency leaders are
more hopeful than ever that
the Jerusalem example is
about to be followed
country-wide.

The
agreement,
reached between Ab-
sorption Minister David
Levy, Mayor Teddy Kol-
lek of Jerusalem, Deputy
Premier Yadin and
representatives of
Jewish organizations
overseas, sets up a joint
government-municipal
corporation to carry out
"Project Renewal" in the
capital.
The actual work will be
done by the Prazot Corp.
which is jointly owned by
the government and the
city.

Anti-Israel
Resolution
Misses Agenda

GENEVA (JTA) — The
International Labor Organ-
ization (ILO) adjourned its
annual conference here last
week without adopting an
anti-Israel resolution as
had been the case in most
previous years.
This was attributed by
the Israeli ambassador to
the UN in Geneva, Yoel
Barromi, to disarray in the
Arab ranks.
