Yarmulke
Amendment
Defeated
Washington (JTA) — The
Senate narrowly defeated an
amendment last week that
would have allowed Jewish
members of the military to
wear yarmulkes if it did not
interfere with the perfor-
mance of their military duty.
The vote was 51 to 49 to
table the amendment to the
1987 Department of Defense
Authorization Bill introduced
by Sen. • Frank Lautenberg
(D.NJ). Lautenberg said that
by voting to table his amend-
ment, Senators were able to
reject the amendment with-
out actually voting against it.
He said he would urge the
Senate-House conference on
the defense authorization bill
to include the amendment
which is contained in the
House bill. He said if this
fails, he and others would of-
fer new legislation later.
Lautenberg and Sen.
Alfonse D'Amato (R.NY) in-
troduced the amendment
after the U.S. Supreme Court
voted 5 to 4 last March that
the military had the power to
ban the wearing of all head-
gear indoors.
The case involved S. Sim-
cha Goldman, an Orthodox
Jew, who as an Air Force cap-
tain working as a psychol-
ogist in 1981, was reprimand-
ed for wearing his yarmulke
on duty.
Lautenberg noted that his
amendment specified that
Jews and members of other
religions could wear head
gearrequired by their religion
only if such "apparel is neat
and conservative." In addi-
tion, either the Secretary of
Defense or any of the Service
secretaries could prohibit the
head gear if it is determined
that it would interfere with
the performance of military
duties.
Israeli Planes
Bomb Sidon
ml Aviv (JTA) — Israeli Air
Force planes last Sunday at-
tacked terrorist bases on the
outskirts of the Ein El-
Hilweh and MyaMya refugee
camps near Siden, an Israel
Defense Force spokesman an-
nounced. All the planes
returned safely and the pilots
reported direct hits on their
targets. The bases served as
sites from which to launch
terrorist strikes, the IDF
said.
According to Beirut Radio
reports, four Israeli heli-
copters took part in the
seven-minute attack. Two
IDF navy missile boats
patrolled the Lebanon short
opposite the refugee camps as
the attack took place. It was
the sixth Israeli Air Force at-
tack on terrorist targets in
Lebanon since the beginning
of the year.
