mind differs from the Gen-
tile mind, gives the causes
of such diversity and the es-
sence of being Jewish .. .
"Reading this book will
contribute to an even
stronger Jewish commit-
ment, identification and de-
termination to do whatever

petuation of Judaism."

Former U.S. Admiral Describes
Military Threat Against Israel

In a statement published
in the N.Y. Times, Elmo R.
Zumwalt, Jr., president of
American Buildings and a
former U.S. Chief of Naval
Operations, pointed to the
military threats to Israel:
"Because of the
Egyptian-Israeli treaty, it is
easy to ignore the military
threat to Israel from the
south. It bears observing,
however, that optimism
about Egyptian-Israeli re-
lations is rooted in a clump
of questionable assump-
tions: (1) Once Sadat re-
covers all of the Sinai, he
will be able to resist the ef-
forts of his fellow Arabs to
draw him into a war in
which Egypt could take ad-
vantage of Israel's more
vulnerable posture, (2)
Sadat will want to resist
these efforts, and (3) Sadat
will survive in office for the
foreseeable future.

ADMIRAL ZUMWALT

"In the meantime, even if
Egypt remains peaceable,
Israel confronts a powerful
array of Soviet-trained and
equipped forces in the
north.

Soviet military personnel in

Federation Grant to Aid
Jewish Geriatric Center

By BEN GALLOB

(Copyright 1979, JTA, Inc.)

A care program under
Jewish auspices for termi-
nally ill patients and their
families, now being or-
ganized by the Metropolitan
Jewish Geriatric Center,
has been accelerated by a
grant to the center from the
Federation of Jewish
Philanthropies, according
to Philip Geller, president of
the Brooklyn geriatric cen-
ter.
Geller said the grant to
the MJGC, which may pro-
vide upwards of $150,000
over the next three years to
support the center's Brook-
lyn Hospice, was authorized
by the Federation's distri-
bution committee from the
Federation's Brookdale
Endowment Fund and Edna
S. Goldman Fund.
Once fully operational, a,
hospice physician-directed
team will make the final
days of terminal patients —
most of them expected to be
cancer victims — as com-
fortable, meaningful and
dignified as possible. A wide
range of medical' and non-
medical techniques will
help the patient and his or
her family in coping with
the pain and emotional
problems of death.

Israel Frees
Arab Prisoners

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Israel freed the first group
of Arab prisoners in north-
ern Sinai last week, honor-
ing an agreement reached
between Permier Menahem
Begin and President Anwar
Sadat at their summit meet-
ing in Haifa. A second group
will be released shortly. All
will be deported to Egypt.
Israeli authorities
stressed that the majority of
the prisoners were serving
sentences for criminal of-
fenses and the few who were
jailed for membership in
terrorist organizations had
not participated directly in
terrorist acts.

Geller said the hospice
will provide in-home,
out-patient and in-
patient levels of care,
serving Brooklyn resi-
dents 50 and older. The
terminally ill would be
able to die in their own
homes or in a special con-
tinuing care unit to be lo-
cated in the center's
Brenner Pavilion in the
Boro Park section of
Brooklyn.
Geller said round-the-
clock care will be provided
by doctors, nurses, social
workers, chaplains, re-
habilitation therapists, rec-
reation workers, psychiat-
rists and trained volun-
teers.

CJF to Meet
in Montreal

NEW YORK (JTA) —
Historic events and circum-
stances converging on the
Jewish communities of
North America during the
coming decade will be a
major focus of the 48th an-
nual General Assembly of
the Council of Jewish Fed-
erations, Nov. 14-18 in
Montreal, Quebec.
Priority items on this
year's agenda include the
Middle East peace process;
expanding and allocating
federation financial re-
sources in a time of infla-
tion; demographic changes
in the Jewish community,
and world Jewry in the
1980s.

Reconstructionist
Leaders Honored

NEW YORK — Three
Jewish leaders who have
distinguished themselves
for their leadership in the
Jewish Reconstructionist
Movement will be the reci-
pients of the Mordecai M.
Kaplan Medal at the Mor-
decai M. Kaplan Awards
Dinner at the Pierre Hotel
Nov. 17. They are Irving
Driesen, Judith Epstein,
and Moses P. Epstein, all of
New York City.

Lebanon and thus enjoys an
extended front along which
it can maneuver against Is-
ratl. Furthermore, despite
political differences, Syria
maintains close military
ties with Iraq and Jordan.
"These three enemies of
Israel now command
conventional military
hardware comparably 1 1
that in the arsenals of
major European NA1 0
powers. Indeed- these
forces would pose a most
formidable threat to U.S.
forces if our own troops
were engaged by them in
a Middle East war.
"Thus, U.S. military
planners rely on Israel's
armed forces to counter
Soviet proxy forces in the
region as well as to guaran-
tee the U.S. Sixth Fleet air
superiority despite the
Soviet Mediterranean fleet.
"A policy that justified
weakening Israel militarily
on the grounds that Israel
`faces no significant mili-
tary threat' would damage
U.S. strategic policy while it
endangers the survival of
Israel."
