Marseilles Mayor Gaston
Defferre, who was to ad-

the bomb apparently had
nothing to do with the forth-
coming French municipal
elections, in which Defferre
is running, and added: "This
is an anti-Semitic attack.
The bomb was set to explode
in the middle of the Jewish
Purim festival and hurt as
many people as possible."
Defferre dismissed
police speculation that
the bomb was linked
either to the forthcoming
elections or to Defferre's

New Greenhouse
Helps Debug
Incoming Plants
REHOVOT — A sophisti-
cated greenhouse, used to
quarantine new • plants
being introduced into Is-
rael, is now in operation at
the Hebrew University's
Faculty of Agriculture.
Ornamental plants from
various countries, including
Australia, New Zealand
and South Africa, are exam-
ined in the greenhouse. An
abundance of ornamental
plants, suitable for growing
in Israel, exist in these
countries, but their intro-
duction could entail the
spread of plant disease.
To forestall this
danger, a period of
quarantine is necessary
in which the plants
undergo tests to ascer-
tain that they are free of
viral and other diseases.
The greenhouse enables
the Department of Orna-
mental Horticulture to step
up the rate of plant intro-
duction into Israel, and
thereby expand the export
potential of ornamental
plants from Israel.
evacuated while police ex-
perts checked the hall and
the building from top to bot-

evening was organized by
the Jewish National Fund
and a local Jewish radio sta-
tion.
No one has claimed re-
sponsibility for the attack
but police said the explo-
sives were of a type similar
to those used by Corsican
extremists.

—
"Sophie's Choice" was
neither the choice of the Los
Angeles Film Critics Asso-
ciation nor of the Hollywood
Foreign Press Association's
Golden Globes (Jan. 29)
though Meryl Streep, who
starred in the film, won the
Best Actress Award from
both organizations.
Based on the novel by
William Styron, the Alan J.
Pakula film is a romantic,
embroidered story dealing
with a Polish woman who
survived the Auschwitz ex-
termination camp by assur-
ing the Nazis that she hated
the Jews and was a good
Catholic. But as movie
material it is in dubious
taste to hear the heroine
cursing the Jews when talk-
ing to one of the most heni-
ous mass murderer, Au-
schwitz commander Rudolf
Hoess, who later was
hanged by the Russians.

Survey Lists
Jewish Priorities
NEW YORK — A survey
of key New York Jewish
leaders by an independent
communications consulting
agency has disclosed that
"Jewish education,"
"strengthening Jewish
identity" and "combating
anti-Semitism" are re-
garded as the key domestic
concerns affecting the
North American Jewish
community. -
At the same time, "peace
in the Middle East" and a
"strong Israel" were listed
as the chief matters on the
international scene affect-
ing the welfare of Jews.
The survey was con-
ducted by Paul Kresh
Communications at the re-
quest of several Jewish
community clients, includ-
ing JWB.
The survey, which was
mailed to 110 major lay
leaders in Metropolitan
New York, was con-
ducted from October to
December of last year. It
included 16 multi-part
questions ranging from
organizational affilia-
tions to children's in-
volvement in Jewish ac-
tivities.
The survey also revealed
that more than 90 percent of
the respondents believed
that "concerns and ties with
other Jews" was "extremely
important" or "very impor-
tant" in defining what it
means to be a Jew. Next in
importance was "a way of
life" followed by "custom
and traditions" and then
"religious beliefs."
STEVEN SPIELBERG
