Friday, June 25, 1982 27 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS American Jewish Leaders Warned Against Voice in Israel Religious Life SPRING GLEN, N.Y. (JTA) — The head of an Or- thodox rabbinical organiza- tion declared that American Jewish organizations should not seek to influence what Jewish religious dominations are accepted in Israel. "It is not the objective of the World Zionist Organiza- tion or the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies and the United Jewish Appeal to assure a victory of one or another religious domina- tion" in their struggle to gain inroads in the religious life of Israel, Rabbi Sol ,oth, president of the Rab- oinical Council of America, told the opening session of the organization's 46th an- nual convention. "Those forums in which a Jewish community is char- acterized by diversity should function in unity," he said. "Jewish leaders have a sacred obligation to preserve that unity." • Roth charged that there is a crisis in Jewish JTA Re-Elects Martin Fox MARTIN FOX _ NEW YORK (JTA) — Martin S. Fox, who was re- elected president of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency for a fourth one-year term, announced the election of five new members to the JTA board of directors. They are Robert Adelstein of Denver, Prof. Marcus Arkin of Johannesburg, Irwin S. Field of Los Angeles, Norman Jacobson of New York and Harriet Zimmerman of Atlanta. In addition, Fox an- nounced the re-election of William M. Landau as chairman of the board, Robert H. Arnow as chair- man of the executive com- mittee and Raymond Eps- tein, Philip Slomovitz, Mel- vin M. Swig, and Marshall Weinberg as vice presidents. Also re-elected were Julius Berman, secretary, and Abraham Goodman, treasurer. children Aided During Attacks NEW YORK — During the recent terrorist artillery and rocket attacks on Is- rael's northern settlements, children in the air raid shel- ters were provided with toys, games and crafts by the National Council of Jewish Women Ship-A-Box Program. leadership because American Jewish leaders "utilize large reservoirs of power for purposes other than those for which they were estab- lished." In his address to several hundred rabbis from across the country, Roth charged that American Jewish lead- ers often set examples that do "not contribute to the strengthening of Jewish life or even to Jewish survival. "We have protested in the past to the election of indi- viduals to leadership in the Jewish community whose personal conduct is such that if it were to inspire emulation, as it inevitable does, the Jewish community would suffer dimunition and Jewish life erosion. Jews with non-Jewish spouses and rabbis who of- ficiate at mixed marriages are not the kinds of models that the Jewish community can afford." Meanwhile, Rabbi Shubert Spero, a vice president of the RCA, urged rabbis to get deeply in- volved in federation and welfare funds, as well as to become leaders win na- tional Jewish and Zionist organizations. Spero, who is from the Young Israel of Cleveland and a member of the board of trustees of the Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland, told the RCA Murders, Lebanon Invasion Trigger 3 Bombs in Rome ROME (JTA) — The war in Lebanon is having seri- ous repercussions for the Jewish community here and apparently has triggered a wave of violence in the Ita- lian capital. Three bombs exploded early Sunday, at the offices of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, the Italy - Is- raeli Chamber of Commerce and at the main office of the American Express. Co. The bombings appeared to be in reprisal for the murders last week of two young Palestinian activists, Hazziz Nazegh Matar, 32, and Kamal Hussein, the 33-year-old deputy director of the Palestine Liberation Organization office in Rome. The PLO promptly accused Israeli agents. The Israel Embassy vehemently denied any Israeli connec- tion with the killings. Meanwhile, the scheduled opening cere- monies of the 11th National Congress of the Union of Italian Jewish Com- munities were called off at the last minute. The cere- monies were to be held at the City Hall under the asupices of Rome's mayor and with the prominent Ita- lian Jewish novelist and Holocaust survivor, Primo Levi, as the main speaker. The cancellation avoided a potentially embarassing situation. The Mayor of Rome led a pro-PLO march through the city only two days before. Levi was one of a group of Jewish writers and intellectuals who signed an open letter calling for Israel's immediate with- drawal from Lebanon.
