Each of them nes- tles on one of two crests forming Mt. Kamon, 1,600 feet above the Akko-Safed Road; the former has an eagle's view of the length of the biblical olive oil- producing valley, Bet Hakerem, and the latter enjoys a panamoric dis- THE ALLAN/ /TOURO COLLEGE • announces an adult education program...

Mehmanim and Kamon are but two of the 22 out- posts already inhabited since the Jewish National Fund began blasting roads and leveling rock ridges for a total of 28 settlement out- posts in Galilee's moun- tainous heartland. These two outposts form a vital addition to the Tzalmon area of Galilee. A hand-written sign in Hebrew tied to the bolted iron gate welcomes the vis- itor to Mehmanim, asks him to leave his vehicle outside on a new dirt road and walk up through the side gate. A group of seven prefabri- cated family homes peep over the hillock beyond the gate, each one containing two bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom and a kitchen — all bundled into 1200 square feet and wrap- ped up under a slanting, red-tin roof. In summer, the yellow- colored walls breath in the heat, unbroken by the shadows of atrophied oak trees covering these ancient slopes. In winter, the cot- tages are buffeted by howl- ing winds and fierce rains lash out at upturned rocks and bold escarpments. The families living here earn their living from outside work, for there is no available land for farming and industry. Sheila and Leslie Miller are one of these seven families. They were first to inhabit the outpost six months ago with the younger three of their six children and four prize- winning show dogs; since then, they have been UN Leadership Served Germany During the War UNITED NATIONS — The two highest-ranking UN officials participating in the current General As- sembly sessions were Ger- man army officers during World War II. Assembly General President Rudiger von Wechmar of West Germany served in Rommel's Afrika Korps. He was captured and was a prisoner of war in the U.S. Von Wechmar says the General Assembly presidency gives him the chance to demonstrate that there is a new Germany. UN Secretary General Kurt Waldheim of Austria claims he was conscripted by the Germans and fought on the Fussian front. Wal- dheim displays irritation when asked about his war- time experiences. Leaflets Taken PARIS (JTA) — Com- munist security guards for- cibly confiscated leaflets on Soviet Jewry which Jewish activists tried to distribute Sunday at the French Communist daily L'Huma- nite's annual picnic. •s • R joined by another four families from different parts of Israel. The Millers are veterans at survival. Newcomers to Israel from England, in 1965, they lived for the first 18 months in a primitive absorption center for university-trained grarl , i- ates at Lod. From there moved to Ra'anan, then L.6 Jerusalem and finally to Carmiel, before moving to Mehmanim. The Millers approached the settlement authorities as soon as they heard of the pre-settlement program. Fired by the idea of con- tributing to a growing Jewish population in Galilee, they asked to join a settlement close to Carmiel where Leslie still works. Sheila, who was active in Carmiel's community life, even began organizing friends and acquaintances to form a group of settlers to move onto Mehmanim and Kamon, each of them only 30 minutes away by car. It took a lot of energy and running around but now she is settled here, says Sheila. "Nothing will make me come down." She belongs to Galilee and believes that her family can achieve qual- ity of life here and quality of environment, and one day "a Jewish township will grow up on this site." Meanwhile, the survival of these two pioneer out- posts is a challenge to the people living there. Their growth --will strengthen existing Jewish settlements and pave the way for others. Black-Jewish Relations Cited NEW YORK — In spite of some recent friction, American Jews and blacks continue to work together toward common goals in most areas of 'social and political concern, according to a new study published by the American Jewish Committee's Institute on Pluralism and Group Iden- tity. The study, "Beyond Con- flict, Black-Jewish Rela- tions: Accent on the Posit- ive," was conducted by Dr. Joyce Gelb, associate pro- fessor of political science at City College and the Graduate Center, CUNY. It is based in part on in- terviews with leaders of both the black and Jewish communities, inclur'' I local, state and fed elected and appointed office holders, professional and amateur community lead- ers and organizers, and religious and civil rights leaders. Summarizing the thrust of the study, Irving M. Levine, director of the In- stitute on Pluralism and Group Identity, declares in a preface that reports of ; group conflict have cap- tured more attention re- cently than the day-to-day amicable relations between diverse groups.
