A Look at Jane Fonda's Israel Visit It's Nonpolitical

By JAMES LEWIN

World Zionist Organization

JERUSALEM — "Only
through tears, humor and
rage," said the actress, nod-
ding her head for emphasis
as she explained her views
of how to transform society
and overcome the evils of
man's inhumanity to man
— and woman.
Although the charity
evening of the Jerusalem
Hilton began with an an-
nouncement that Miss Jane
Fonda would not deal with
iy political questions and
,vas willing to discuss her
films only in terms of artis-
tic technique, she neverthe-
less devoted most of her ar-
ticulate statements of opin-
ion and observation to the
struggle for social equality,
which is evidently the driv-
ing force of inspiration be-
hind her creative work in
the cinema.
"My visit proves my belief
in Israel's right to exist in
peace," film actress and
political activist Fonda had
said on arriving in Israel
with her husband, Tom
Hayden, and their two chil-
dren for a five-day visit.
The actress said she
was happy to be in Israel,
a country which she had
long wanted to visit.
Though she broke a leg
early in her stay, she
toured the country inten-
sively, visiting
Jerusalem's Western
Wall and showing special
interest in the kibutz way
of life.
"Controversy is part of
art," she declared in brisk
tones, flashing her famous
smile. "Artists have always
been passionate people, in-
volved in the struggles _of
their times. I don't believe
art merely holds up a mirror
to society. I think it must
work to effect a change."
Looking back on her 20
years in Hollywood, she
indicated that the major
break in her career came

when she made up her mind
to perform only in parts that
contributed to her vision of
social justice.

Despite growing up as the
daughter of a famous film
star, she insists she never
wanted to become an actress
until she got to college, nor
did her famous name neces-
sarily guarantee success.
In recent years, she has
become the head of her
own production com-
pany in order to have
more control of the con-
tent and character of the
movies she makes. Their
first release, "Coming
Home" with Jon Voight,
a study of the plight of a
Vietnam War veteran re-
turning from combat in a
wheel-chair, indicates
the direction of her work.
The evening at the Hilton
was a benefit to help the
Municipal Theater at Haifa
to bring theater to under-
privileged segments of the
society. It is typical of Jane

that persons favoring the
dismantling of the state
cannot benefit from the
remedies of its courts.
Bach produced an af-
fidavit from a military gov-
ernment officer attesting
that the three men had par-
ticipated in a demonstra-
tion at the Jordan Bridge
last week and shouted slo-
gans such as "Israel is Nazi"
and "the land will be re-
deemed with blood."
The lawyer for the appel-
lants, Felicia Langer,
claimed that while the three
had been present at the
demonstration marking
Nablus Mayor Bassam
Shaka's return they had
been silent and not shouted
any slogans.
She argued that all the
West Bank mayors and
most of the inhabitants saw
the Palestine Liberation
Organization as their
legitimate representative
— and thus it could not be
expected of the three to dis-
sociate themselves from the
PLO. She asserted, though,
that the three had said and
written that they favored a
peaceful solution.
A main issue in the case
is whether the deportees
were entitled to appeal
before a special tribunal
against their deportation
before it was carried out.
Bach, for the state, said
earlier in the hearing that

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
The Supreme Court ended
hearings last Friday on the
appeal of three West Bank
political leaders against
their deportation.
A decision is expected
within a week or so on the
demand of Fahed Kawasme,
Mohammed Milhim and
Sheikh Rajeb Buyud
Tamimi against their con-
tinued expulsion.
Sawasme, who was the
mayor of Hebron, Milhim,
who was the mayor of
Halhoul, and Tamimi, who
was the Moslem religious
judge of Hebron, were de-
ported in the aftermath of
the May 2 terrorist killings
of six yeshiva students in
Hebron.
Last Friday's court ses-
sion focused on the polit-
ical beliefs of the three
men — whether they fa-
vored the destruction of
the state of Israel. State
Attorney Gavriel Bach
cited precedents to show

NEW YORK (JTA) —
The overwhelming majority
of Jewish day schools in
New York City are pro-
tected by new state legisla-
tion from New York City
fees for water and sewers.
The new law exempts pri-
vate schools in New York
City whose annual sewer
and water charges total
$5,000 or less, a yardstick
which covers most of the ci-,
ty's private and religious
schools.

though the action of the
military authorities in not
permitting the appeal to be
heard before the expulsion
was "irregular" and there-
fore improper, it did not, in
strictly legal terms, in-
validate the legality of the
deportation.
