Hart regularly votes for foreign aid bills containing substantial sums for Israel and has described U.S. sup- port for Israel as a "moral and strategic commitment." Hart was a co-signer of the Senate Letter of 1976, and opposed both the F-15 and AWACS sales to Saudi Arabia. He has not missed many oppor- tunities to speak out on behalf of Israel during Senate initiatives, and was one of the few to pub- licly express understand- ing for Israel's destruc- tion of the Iraqi nuclear reactor last year. More recently, he in- itiated a letter to President By MORRIS AMITAY WASHINGTON — One of the more prominent new- comers in the Democratic Presidential sweepstakes for 1984 is Sen. Gary Hart of Colorado. Hart, 45, who was elected in 1974 and re- elected in 1980, first came to national attention as cam- paign manager of Sen. George McGovern's 1972 Presidential Campaign. Unlike McGovern, whose views on the Middle East dismayed supporters of Is- rael, Hart has been a consis- tent friend. He had made his mark as an early and ardent advocate of reducing U.S. dependence on imported oil and he is an influential member of the Armed Serv- oc) BANQUETS Gourmet dining for your conference of ten .. . or your wedding reception for 500!

However, he has publicly expressed his con- cern over Israeli responsi- bility for the killing of civi- lians in the refugee camps in Lebanon. In sum, Hart has a strong record of support — and a future in national politics extending beyond 1984. As of now, his prospects for the 1984 nomination are rated behind those of Mondale and Glenn. But if Jimmy Carter in 1976 taught us anything, it's that no horse is too dark! We will review the re- cords of the remaining con- tenders in future columns. * * * The November Con- gressional elections left a single important vacancy on the Senate Foreign Re- lations Committee and 10 on the House Foreign Af- fairs Committee — seven Democrats and three Re- publicans. While the House slots have not yet been filled, the Republi- can caucus selected Sen. Frank Murkowski of Alaska to serve in place of the retiring Sen. Sam Hayakawa of California. Given the views on the Middle East of a number of other Republican Senators who expressed interest in serving, Murkowski's selec- tion is a welcome addition. Although he voted in favor of the AWACS sale, Mur- kowski, who was elected in 1980, has been voting for foreign aid and has been positive on other arms sales and UN-related issues. On the House sidelt will be hard to make up for the loss of such stalwarts as Jack Bingham (D-N.Y.), Millicent Fenwick (R-N.J.), Bob Shamansky (D-Ohio), Bob Dornan (R- Calif.) and Ed Derwinski (R-I11.). Der- winski was recently ap- pointed counselor to the State Department. Service on this committee is generally not regarded too highly because of the lack of opportunities to please constituents. Foreign Affairs is not con- sidered a "bread and butter" committee. However, for those concerned for Israel's security and well-being, the committee remains a vital one. In 1984, no less than nine of the 17 members of the Senate Foreign Rela- tions Committee face re- election which could produce significant changes in the composi- tion of his committee. Since 1980, the orienta- tion of the committee has become more negative with regard to Israel, particu- larly since Chairman Charles Percy of Illinois re- placed Frank Church (D- Idaho) who was • a firm friend of Israel. Those Senators on the committee who face re- election are: Howard Baker (R-Tenn.), Jesse Helms (R- N.C.), Nancy Kassebaum (R-Kan.), Rudy Boschwitz (R-Minn.), Larry Pressler (R-S.C.), Claiborne Pell (D-R.I.), Joseph Biden (D- Del.), Paul Tsongas (D- Day School Costs Soaring "Food and Song to Delight the Heart" THE /0) pe Um cgf ouse RESTAURANT Invites You To Begin A Joyous New Year at our GALA NEW YEAR'S EVE CONCERT Featuring "SONGS OF ROMANCE, OPERETTA & BROADWAY'' With 0 BIRDINA OAKLEY Soprano KEN HAERING, Tenor CHRISTA GRIX, Harpist JENNY HAERING, Pianist 8 SEATINGS: 5, 6 & 9 p.m.—Bottle Champagne per table . $10 per person cover Detroit's Finest Gourmet Dining Plus Live Classical MUSiC Tues. thru Sat.

A BJE survey represents combined figures for a total of 146 schools, representing 41,646 students or 75 per- cent of the total pupil popu- lation in Jewish day schools in Greater New York. In the elementary schools, the range of per pupil costs was $1,158.03 to $4,536.29, while official tui- tion fees varied from $300 to $3,225. The average per pupil cost was $2,003.56, with an average official tui- tion fee of $1,317.08. The range of per pupil tuition income was $262.25 to $1,917.69, with an average per pupil tuition income of $1,232.75. In high schools, the survey indicated a range of per pupil costs of $1,609 to $6,822, while of- ficial tuition fees varied from $600 to $3,675. The average per pupil cost was $3,440, with an aver- age official tuition fee of $1,579. The range of per pupil tuition income was $596 to $2,006, with an av- erage per pupil tuition income of $1,498. BJE president Dr. Albert Hornblass noted, "Corn- parisons with expenditures of a decade ago underscore the spiraling costs of educa- tion." In 1972, the average per pupil cost was approx- imately $900 for the elementary grades and $1,500 for the high school -level. "Since then," Hornblass said, "average elementary costs have more than doubled, while high school costs have almost tripled." Solution to Bias? TEL AVIV (ZINS) — Dr. Israel Eldad, writing in the newspaper Haaretz, says that anti-Semitism will not disappear until Jews no longer live in the Diaspora. Eldad is prominent in the militant Gush Emunim fac- tion which supports Israel's biblical claims to Judea and Samaria. Mass.) and Percy. * * * Amidst the frantic at- tempts to adjourn the 97th Congress, Representatives and Senators held numer- ous "Christmas" parties. Sen. Bob Packwood (R-Ore.) delighted the numerous Jewish staff aides on Capitol Hill and many in- vited guests by giving equal time to a Hanuka menora at his gathering in the Senate Office Building. Packwood, who led the fight against the AWACS, is not only a staunch sup- porter of Israel, but one of the most knowledge- able people in Congress on the history of the Mid- dle East.
