The Vatican statement, which quoted extensively from the Pope's speeches on his re- cent visits to West Germany and Poland strongly condemn- ing the Holocaust and anti- Semitism in its forms, left no doubt that the Pontiff is deter- mined to receive Waldheim in audience regardless of ac- cumulated evidence of his com- plicity in Nazi atrocities and persecutions during World War II. The announcement that Waldheim will be granted a papal audience shocked and outraged Jews all over the world. They have been urging the Pope to reconsider. Theo Klein, president of the French Jewish community, stated in a letter to the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Caseroli, that if the meeting takes place, "European Jewry will speak out about the Catholic church's silence during the Second World War while Jewish families were annihilated!' Tullia Zevi, president of the Union of Italian Jewish Com- munities, was quoted widely in the Italian media as remarking that the Pope "is honoring a man upon whom a war crimes enquiry is pending." The Italian government has repu- diated Waldheim's visit. In the United States, repre- sentatives of major Jewish organizations called for an ear- ly meeting with the Pope to clarify his decision to receive Waldheim. At the same time, the American Jewish Congress announced withdrawal of its sponsorship of a meeting American Jewish leaders had scheduled with the Pope in Miami next September 11. The Italian government, which had earlier said that Waldheim would be received with all of the ceremony ac- corded a visiting head of state, issued a statement distancing itself from Vatican policy on the issue.

The family gatherings, chaired by Jody Jacobs and Cathy Radner, will pair families with similar interests. Jewish organizations in the Detroit area have been asked to supply the Council with volunteers from their boards and general membership. Non- Jewish ethnic organizations within the community have been asked to do the same. The 'volunteer families will be ask- ed to fill out questionnaires, and the Council will pair families with similar interests. The Council plans to con- clude the year-long celebration of its anniversary with a con- ference devoted to family con- cerns in the spring of 1988, and make it a natural outgrowth of the paired families' discussions in September. "We want to make this not only a celebration of our past," Cohan said, "but a celebration of our community in which we all live!' He said the anniver- sary programs should help im- prove relations and "the reac- tion from our non-Jewish friends has been very positive!' The Oct. program at Or- chestra Hall will feature enter- tainment groups from the Jewish, black, Polish, Hispanic and Arab communities, as well as a ten-minute audio-visual presentation on the Jewish Community Council's history, philosophy and activities. The Council is also forming a speakers bureau staffed by cur- rent and past officers and members, and chaired by Marian Shifman. A booklet is also being prepared, summariz- ing the Council's positions on current affairs and issues of concern to the community. Members of the 50th an- niversary committee planning the year-long series of events include Rhea Appleman, Alex- ander Blumenberg, Oscar Hertz, Martin W. Hollander, David Lebenbom, Judge Susan M. Moiseev, Oakland County Commissioner Lawrence R. Pernick, Ida Rosenblum, Rose Schwartz, Kenneth D. Sidlow and Kathleen Straus. Aliyah Promoted Through Tours Jerusalem (JTA) — A pilot group of about 3,500 Jews will visit Israel this summer under the auspices of the Jewish Agency's Aliyah Department to see if they want to settle here. According to Haim Aharon, who heads the department, about 70 percent of the par- ticipants in past pilot visits eventually immigrated. The aliyah promotion program in- cludes lectures and seminars on
