OSI Seeks Vilna Witnesses New York — The U.S. De- partment of Justice has re- quested the assistance of the World Jewish Congress in locating witnesses to Nazi crimes committed during World War II in the vicinity of Vilna (Vilnius), Lithuania. In addition to Vilna itself, survivors are being sought from the following towns and villages: Nemenczyn (Nemen- cine), Nova Vileika (Naujoji Vilnia), Rzesza (Riese), Yas- zuny (Jasiunai), Eiszyszki (Eisiskes), Troki (Trakai), Szumiliszki (Semeliskes), and Svienciany (Svencionys). The department's Office of Special Investigations (OSI) is in the process of gathering evidence in connection with its investigations of suspected Nazi war criminals residing in the United States. OSI is especially interested in contacting survivors who can provide information con- cerning the activities of the Lithuanian Security Police (also known as the Lithua- nian Sicherheitspolizei, Saugumas, or Lithuanian SIPO). Survivors, or those who might be of assistance in locating survivors, may write in any language: Bessy Pupko, World Jewish Con- gress, 1 Park Ave., New York, N.Y. 10016, Telephone: (212) 679-0600.

Tobin of Brandeis Univer- sity told a meeting of the JWB board of directors. Basing his contention on data developed in demog- raphic studies,Dr. Tobin found that Center con- stituents today care primarily about service, not member- ship. While most American Jews prefer to use a JCC or Y over private services, he noted, membership can turn over 100 percent in any given five-year period. • invites you to the 38th Annual Dinner Thursday, October 30, 1986 Dinner Chairman Mat Shalom Synagogue Guest Speaker 29901 Middlebelt Fioad Farmington Hills Guest Speaker YOSEF YAAKOV Consul General of Israel, Washington, D.C. and Minister-Counsellor Embassy of Israel Liver Transplant Center To Open Haifa — Israel's first liver transplant center will be es- tablished at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology's fa- culty of medicine. and its teaching affiliate Rambam Hospital in Haifa.
