people attending the 100th
anniversary dinner of the
New York Board of Rabbis
at the Waldorf Astoria
Hotel, Carter declared: "No
---Nne of these three goals can
'c a ignored if we are to be

East."

The former chief execu-
tive, who did not discuss the
current tensions in the
Mideast, said that the three
goals were of critical impor-
tance during the negotiat-
ing process that led to the
Camp David peace agree-
ments.
Carter's 30-minute ad-
dress focused mainly on
the issue of human rights
in general and on the
issue of human rights in
the Soviet Union in par-
ticular. Regarding the
Soviet Union, he noted
that since 1976, 150,000
Soviet Jews have come to
live in freedom in the
United States and in Is-
rael.
He told the audience of a
meeting he had with Soviet
President Leonid Brezhnev,
following their talks on the
SALT II treaty in Vienna, in
which he asked about the
plight of those prisoners
who seek exit visas from the
Soviet Union.
Carter said that when he
asked specifically about
Anatoly Shcharansky,
Brezhnev proceeded to read
through a carefully worded
text about the Soviet legal
system and his nation's
laws and said there was
nothing he could do.
Carter added that he did
give Brezhnev a list of
names of several hundred
Soviet citizens, mostly
Jews, who were trying to ob-
tain exit visas. He said that

America's human rights
policies abroad can be used
as a "weapon" to continue in
U.S. competition with
Soviet ideology.
In focusing on the issue
of human rights, Carter
said the U.S. must con-
tinue its fight for
worldwide human rights
"boldly and openly"
through "public knowl-
edge and public condem-
nation." He added that
historically, "quiet dip-
lomatic channels have
proven ineffective."
While Carter did not refer
to President Reagan and the
current Administration's
position on human rights,

UJA Sets $660 Million Goal
for 1982 National Campaign

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The United Jewish Appeal
has established a national
1982 regular campaign goal
of $660 million — matching
the total raised in the 1974
campaign response to the
Yom Kippur War — and
called for simultaneous in-
tensified fundraising and
cash collection for Project
Renewal.
The goal was announced
by UJA national chairman
Herschel Blumberg to 650
national, regional and
community campaign lead-
ers from throughout the
country at the UJA national
leadership meeting at the
Sheraton-Washington
Hotel.
Martin Citrin of Detroit,
the 1981 task force chair-
man, called on community
leadership to maintain
equity in the proportionate
allocation of campaign pro-
ceeds between UJA-funded
overseas agencies and local
beneficiaries. In reaction to
impending cuts in federal
funds for local programs, he
emphasized, communities
must find ways and means
to maintain maximum serv-
ice without reducing alloca-
tions to the United Jewish

Appeal.

The meeting's opening
plenary was marked by
the first public appear-
ance in the U.S. of Yosef
Mendelevich since his ar-
rival in Israel after 11
years of imprisonment in
the Soviet Union. The
former prisoner of con-
science urged reinforced
support by American
Jewry of the ongoing
struggle of Soviet Jewish
dissidents and refusniks.
Ambassador Ephraim
Evron of Israel, while mak-
ing a brief, passing refer-
ence to differences with the
Reagan Administration
over specific current issues,
affirmed the deep bond be-
tween the two countries.
Addressing the crisis sur-
rounding the developments
in Lebanon, he declared

Friday, May 29, 1981

NEW YORK (JTA) —
The United Jewish Appeal
has responsed to recent
criticism of Project Re-
newal, stating that the cri-
tics have failed to see "clear
and present signs of pro-
gress toward what may be
the world's first successful
program of comprehensive
rehabilitation of distressed
urban areas."
"Certainly there have
been problems," said Robert
Russell of Miami, UJA na-
tional Project Renewal
chairman, in a statement
issued here today. "Every
new program encounters
difficulties, but Project Re-
newal has also recorded
significant, visible accom-
plishments."

that Israel would "exhaust
every diplomatic possibil-
ity" for a resolution before
considering unilateral ac-
tion.
American policy in the
Middle East was a major
issue of concern at other
events throughout the
meeting, including brief-
ings at the State Depart-
ment, an analysis by Rep.
Tom Lantos (D-Calif.), and
a study session which also
considered Reagan ad-
ministration domestic pol-
icy.
Lantos, the only member
of Congress who is a
Holocaust survivor, re-
vealed that his resolution to
confer honorary U.S. citi-
zenship on Raoul Wallen-
berg has received over-
whelming support in both
houses and is expected to be
passed shortly. One of the
20,000-50,000 Hungarian
Jews who was saved by Wal-
lenberg's heroic actions in
the late stages of World War
II, Lantos asserted that
conclusive proof now exists
to support the belief that
Wallenberg is still alive in
the Gulag Archipelago."

Few love to hear the sins
they love to act.
