Nonetheless, the same majority expresses con- cern that assimilation in the United States poses a serious threat to American Jewish survival. These trends are revealed in a recent survey of Israeli Jews, released by the American Jewish Committee simultaneously in New York and Jerusalem. On the issue of "Who is a Jew," while 55 percent oppose amending the law, only one- third of those questioned said that American Jews would be justified in reassessing their attitudes about Israel if the law was amended to exclude conversions by non-Orthodox Diaspora rabbis. As for their attachment to Judaism, the Jewish people and Israeli society, nearly two-thirds of the respondents said they "think of the Jewish people as an extension of my family" (64 percent), and "think of Jewish society as an extension of my family" (57 percent). But when asked to choose between the two en- tities, exactly half said their "basic sense of identity and commitment is to Israel and Israelis rather than to Jews and Judaism." More than half believe that "American Jews can lead a fuller Jewish life in Israel than in the United States." (54 percent). Fewer said that "Israelis can learn a great deal from American Jewish life." (37 percent). Reagan Pledges Pressure Washington (JTA) — President Reagan pledged last Monday to continue pressing the "plight of Soviet Jews" in his meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze and at any summit meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. In a letter read by Micah Naftalin, Washington repre- sentative of the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews (UCSJ) to the UCSJ's annual meeting here, Reagan also said. "Let me assure you that I and the whole of my Administration support the continuation of the Jackson- Vanik and Stevenson Amend- ments and shall scrupulously abide by their provisions." Reagan's stress on support of the legislation which links trade with increased Jewish emigration from the Soviet Union was apparently in a reply to a letter from Naftalin and UCSJ president Pamela Cohen expressing concern about his nomination of C. William Verity, Jr., as Secretary of Commerce. Ver- ity, a former steel company executive, has expressed op- position to Jackson-Vanik in the past. 'Cabinet Able To Make Peace' Washington (JTA) — Moshe Arad, Israel's new Am- bassador to the United States, rejected any suggestion Sept. 11 that Israel is incapable of achieving progress toward a Middle East peace settlement because of the differences over an international con- ference between Premier Yit- zhak Shamir and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres. "There is no difference of opinion in our cabinet about the necessity to move the peace process forward," Arad said in a speech to the Na- tional Press Club, his first ap- pearance before reporters since coming to Washington in July. "And specifically there is no difference of opinion concern- ing the necessity of finding a proper framework to bring Jordan into face-to-face nego- tions with Israel," he added. Six Jews At Botany Bay New York — While Americans continue to celebrate the 200th anniver- sary of the Constitution, celebrations are only beginn- ing down under in Australia to commemorate that coun- try's bicentennial, in 1988. Two hundred years ago, Australia was established as a penal colony for British con- victs. Six of those dispatched to Australia's Botany Bay in the first shipment of exiles were Jewish, one of whom, John Harris, went on to become Australia's first policeman. Time Capsule New York — President Ronald Reagan, former Presi- dent Richard Nixon and New York Governor Mario Cuomo were among the contributors to a time capsule sealed Sept. 15 by Yeshiva University to mark the institution's entry into its second century.
