THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Max Fisher Believes Ford Is Best GOP Vote-Getter GREENE BROS. (Continued from Page 2) "weakened," he says. In the 1972 campaign, for in- stance, he raised $8 million for Richard Nixon from among the Jewish commu- nity. That kind of figure is now a thing of the past. But fund-raising ability, despite the ceilings set by the new law, is still at a premium. At a recent dinner for 200 people that he organized in Chicago with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger as guest speaker, $200,000 was pledged for Republican Party coffers. Such efforts are certainly not to be sneezed at. Fisher's prowess, moreover, is not only in the field of fund-raising, but also in the no less vital area of vote-getting. His presence at campaign head- quarters, exercising his soft but persuasive voice in thousands of telephone con- versations, is an asset that any Republican candidate will want to have.

All other issues fade into insignificance" compared with "the low Jewish birth- rate" and "a high level of in- termarriage and assimila- tion." That warning by Dr. Ste- ven Cohen appears in a new reference work, "Jewish Population: Renaissance or Oblivion?" Dr. Cohen is former chairman of the Task Force on Jewish Popu- lation of the Commission on Synagogue Relations of the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies. Rabbi Gilbert Rosenthal, commission chairman, de- clared in his introduction to the new book that, "for the Jewish people, the issue of the population bomb simply does not exist." He said it would be more accurate "to describe our situation as a population bust" which is "wreaking havoc on Jewish population." says Fisher, the Republi- can aspirants are "all pretty much the same._ "Ford was probably one of the best friends Israel ever had. It was he and Kissinger who built the groundwork for the peace treaty with Egypt. Kissinger was so much more sophisticated than the present adminis- tration. Carter and (Na- tional security adviser Zbigniew) Brezinski want to solve the whole world all at once. When we were still dealing with Egypt, I felt Carter was already talking about Jerusalem. Kissinger knew you can't force these things; it takes time for a peace process to evolve." Ford and Kissinger were "very close," Fisher recalls. And it is entirely possible, therefore, that if Ford does decide to run — and wins — Kissinger would be in his administration again. He himself has maintained his friendship with both men since the Republican defeat. On the other side, Fisher says he fears Sen. Edward Kennedy more than Carter. "Kennedy would be harder to beat," is his assessment. Whoever runs and whoever wins — the "gut issue," it seems PARTY-WEDDING-BRIDESMAID-BAR MINA f LONG and SHORT DRESSES 1/2 OFF PETITE-MISSES-EXTRA LARGE SIZES SHANDELS 154 SOUTH WOODWARD BIRMINGHAM * MI 2-4150 „ NEW YORK — Prof. Gil- bert J.
