MDA's 1st Arab
First-Aid Class

New York — Magen David
Adorn, Israel's national emer-
gency medical service, recently
conducted a 100-hour first-aid
course, given for the first time
in Arabic. The course included
basic first-aid, initial treatment
in cardiac arrest, various resus-
citation techniques and infant
delivery.
Eighteen of the 20 partici-
pants completed the course suc-
cessfully.
Joseph Handleman, former
Detroiter and national chairman
of the American Red Magen
David for Israel, said that the
course was given in response to
the request of Dr. Robert
Tabash, Bethlehem's municipal
physician. "Dr. Tabash," Hand-
leman stated, "said that when
he took up his post several
months ago, he was shocked to
find that the emergency services
of the Bethlehem fire depart-
ment did not include first-aid.
Since the fire department and
ambulance service are the same
body, Dr. Tabash felt it was im-
perative to upgrade first-aid
training."
Dr. Tabash "lauded the MDA
for its responsiveness to the
need for the course," Handleman
said, "and added that some of
the graduates are now eager to
take an MDA paramedic
course."

Washington — William Webs-
ter, director of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, said
Tuesday that the FBI has found
links between persons seeking
to harm "enemies of Israel" and
recent attacks on Arab-
Americans.
Webster refused to identify
the attackers, but the FBI had
previously linked the Jewish
Defense League to the October
bombing of the Santa Ana,
Calif. office of the American
Arab Anti-Discrimination
Committee. No one has been
charged in that incident and the
JDL denied that it was involved.
A fire destroyed the Washing-
ton office of the Anti-
Discrimination Committee in
November, and the West Coast
director of the group was killed
in the October bombing.
