We voted against it and were pleased that a subatantial number of other members felt they could not support the resolutions. Such efforts will not bring us any closer to peace." "Another principle clearly applies to our negotiating effort. It is this: While negotiations are being pursued, all of the parties must avoid uniPat- eral actions designed to pre- judge the outcome of the negotiations or that would have the effect of worsening the atmosphere for suc- cessful negotiations. No negotiations can succeed if one of the parties at the table attempts simultane- ously to gain unilateral ad- vantage on the ground." "If the parties should fail, or if the Camp David process should be de- railed by misguided in- tervention, the conse- quences could be serious indeed. For the interests of the entire world are deeply engaged in the Middle East. Continuing conflicts in the region threaten those interests, threaten the future of our friends in the region, threaten intervention by outside powers — and * threaten the peace of the tions.

Calling the European declaration ". . an un- seemly accommodation to the PLO policy of ter- rorism," Mrs. Shifman's let- ters went to local consuls representing France, West Germany and Italy. Since Great Britain does not maintain a consular office in Detroit, a similar letter was sent to their embassy in Washington. Expressing the view that the action by the Common Market nations detracted from rather than enhanced changes for a peace settlement, Mrs. Shifman stated, "It appears to us to be a flag- rant and somewhat shameful capitulation to the intransigent and re- jectionies policies of oil- rich Arab nations." "The Camp David process has proven to be the only successful negotiating ef- fort in recent Middle East history. The action by your government(s) in this mat- ter can only serve to under- mine and impede the search for realistic solutions . . ." Nashville Jews Have Higher Affiliation Rate NASHVILLE — Nashvil- le's Jewish community has a higher affiliation rate than the nation's Jews as a whole, according to prelimi- nary findings just released of a Jewish Family Life Survey administered by the Nashville unit of the American Jewish Commit- tee. Some 92 percent of those sampled were found to be affiliated with a Nashville synagogue and 72 percent affiliated with other Jewish organizations including their synagogue. Nashville:s Jewish par- ents clearly feel, the survey found, that the most effec- tive transmitter of .Jewish- ness to their children has been the influence of a Jewish home. A strong majority reportedly feels that providing "a solid Jewish education" by par- ents to their children was of greatest importance to them as parents in prepar- ing their children for a Jewish life In his speech before the voting, Blum said that Is- rael rejects the resolu- tions and the entire spe- cial emergency session of the General Assembly because it was "illegal and preposterous." Blum declared that "while it (the special session) has not advanced the cause of peace, it has dealt au- other blow to what re- mains of the UN's prestige and authority." He noted that there are many problems in the world and observed 'that it is "no panacea to the world's illE by advocating hostile, one- sided resolutions against my country." He said the resolutions were aimed at destroying the peace talks which, he declared, will go on.
