Dead Sea Works
Conveyor Belt

SODOM (JNI) — The
Dead Sea Works is building
the longest conveyor belt in
the world at the lowest point
on earth. The 18 kilometer
(11 mile) belt will carry
potash from the Dead Sea to
a railway terminal near
Arad and will cost $30-$35
million — the latest in $600
million worth of investment
since the establishment of
the modern Dead Sea Works
30 years ago.
The original plant was
built in 1920, further north
on the Dead Sea shores.
Further expansion of the
industry's evaporation
pools has been delayed by a
dispute with the Dead Sea
Moriah Hotel, which claims
that the operation of a pool
directly opposite the hotel
will eventually lead to the
hotel's collapse.
In 1981, the company
earned $192 million,
mainly through export.
This year's earnings are ex-
pected to fall slightly.

Bnai Brith Youth, Academic Programs
Applatided at McCabe-Winkelman Fete

Programming for youth,
on university campuses and
on social levels in com-
munities throughout the
country, received acclaim
Monday evening at the an-
nual dinner of the Bnai
Brith Foundation at the
Westin Hotel.
The more than 900 in
attendance applauded the
efforts to advance cultural
and social service activities
among the youth, and the
event was utilized for the
presentation of the annual
Great American Traditions
Awards to John McCabe,
president of Michigan Blue
Cross-Blue Shield, and
Stanley Winkelman, emi-
nent community personal-
ity and chairman of the
board and chief executive
officer of Winkelman
Stores.
Symbolizing the chief
aims of this annual event
were the brief addresses of
representatives of the youth
movements: Steven Katz,
co-chairman, University of
Michigan Hillel Student
Council; Andrew Kollin,
president, Great Lakes AZA
Council; and Felissa Burns,
president, Great Lakes

BBG Council.
Thus, the three move-
ments, on campus and in
the community, were de-
lineaied as their dele-
gated representatives
both defined their work
and joined in asking for
fullest continuing sup-
port for them.
Local Bnai Brith per-
sonalities who contributed
to evaluating the basic ob-
jectives of the Bnai Brith
Foundation included Sol
Moss, international vice
president of Bnai Brith, and
Nathan Rubinstein, chair-
man of the Bnai Brith
Foundation Committee.
The major address of the
evening was delivered by
Alan Larkin, senior vice
president of Bnai Brith In-
ternational, who did the
honoring of McCabe and
Winkelman, presenting
them with the Great Ameri-
can Traditions Awards.
Larkin took pride in the
Bnai Brith sponsorship of
the youth movements and
their attainments in uni-
versities through the Hillel
Foundations and on local
levels among the youth.
In his address, Larkin

traced the Bnai Brith his-
tory of 135 years Of
achievements in behalf of
American Jewry as well
as the efforts through the
Anti-Defamation League
to aid in exposing bigot-
ries affecting all citizens
and in the unending
battle to uproot them.
In their responses,
McCabe and Winkelman
spoke of dedications to the
highest goals of traditional
Americanism and the
encouragement endlessly to
be given to the youth of the
nation to strive for the dig-
nities that create a coopera-
tive citizenry.
Conducted under the
chairmanship of David Eas-
lick, a former honoree, the
program included indus-
trialists and distinguished
personalities of local, state
and national repute.
The tribute to McCabe
was by Walter J. McCarthy,
chairman of the board of De-
troit Edison Co.
Allan Schwartz spoke
glowingly about the corn-.
munal record of Winkel-
man.
An impressive appeal
for continuing support to

Survivor of St. Louis Tragedy
Urges More Support for Israel

For the 200 who attended
Sunday's testimonial
dinner sponsored by Cong.
Beth Achim in honor of
Pearl Nosanchuk, a deeply
moving story related by a
survivor of the SS St. Louis
tragedy served to inspire in-
creased support for Israel
Bonds.
It was a reminiscence by
the entertainer who was
featured at the dinner, Jud-
ith Steel, that brought a
hush from the family and
friends of Pearl Nosanchuk,
when the guest artist, who
sang Hebrew, English and
Yiddish songs, related how,
as a mere child, without
suspecting the conse-
quences, was hugged sepa-
rately by her parents just
before they disappeared to
be taken to the Nazi death
camps.
Ms. Steel, who was intro-
duced by Max Nosanchuk,
co-chairman of the dinner
committee with Leonard
Herman, appealed to the
audience for increased sup-

port for Israel Bonds by stat-
ing that if there had been an
Israel when the victims of
the St. Louis were turned
away, first from Cuba and
then the United States,
thousands more would have
been rescued.
The evening's program
gave distinction to Mrs.
Nosanchuk, a lady who
dedicated herself to causes
for Zionism and Israel and
earned the appreciation of
the community and the af-
fections and cooperation of
her family:
While the presentation of
the Jerusalem City of Peace
Award was made by Yetta
Sperka, the salute in behalf
of Mrs. Nosanchuk's family
by her son-in-law, Douglas
Schubot, the husband of her
daughter Sydelle was espe-
cially moving.
Then there was the
presence of her entire fam-
ily, sons and daughters-in-
law and grandchildren, and
a score of cousins and mem-

*

bers of the Nosanchuk fam-
ily, added to .the apprecia-
tion expressed.
The tribute in the open-
ing prayer by Rabbi Benja-
min Gorrelick, the formal
expression of gratitude for
her labors by the Beth
Achim president, George
Rossman, the acclaim for
her communal record of
services by the toastmaster,
Leonard Herman, totaled a
communal acclaim for the
services rendered by Pearl
Nosanchuk.
In her response to the
tributes, Mrs. Nosanchuk
recalled many associations
with the most active in
Jewish ranks and spoke of a
continuing devotion to the
Israel Bonds efforts, the
Jewish National Fund,
Shaare Zedek Hospital in
Jerusalem and other
movements in support of Is-
rael. "This continuing labor
is my appreciation for the
honors accorded me," she
said.

help elevate the move-
ment to encourage the
best in citizenship was
expressed by Jack A.
Robinson, chief execu-
tive officer of Perry Drug
Stores.
Federal Judge Avern
Cohn, whose father, Irwin I.
Cohn, was among the first
honorees by Bnai Brith, ex-
tended greetings to the
large gathering as
president of the Jewish Wel-
fare Federation and gave
assurance of community
cooperation to all efforts to
encourage cultural and so-
cial activities by and for the
youth.
Louis Weber, as honorary
chairman of the Bnai Brith

Foundation Committee,
gave an analysis of the
committee's aims and spoke
of the progress it has at-
tained in its youth pro-
gramming.
Temple Beth El Rabbi
Emeritus Richard C. Hertz
gave the invocation and
Father Malcolm Carron
pronounced the benedic-
tion. Cantor Harold Orbach
led in the singing of the na-
tional anthems.
Lending impressiveness
to the event was the intro-
ductory role of Bill Bonds,
WXYZ television anchor-
man, who announced the
occupants of the two-tiered
dais as they arrived to take
their seats.
