GRAND OPENING
Chinese Heard
In Jerusalem
Jerusalem — When three
scientists from the People's
Republic of China found
themselves searching for a
book by a Chinese playwright
in the computerized
catalogue of the Hebrew
University of Jerusalem's
Bloomfield Library, they were
surprised to suddenly hear a
librarian offering them
assistance in fluent Chinese.
The Chinese-speaking
librarian, Aurelia Tambor,
learned the language during
a seven-year period spent in
China. A former citizen of
Romania, she was sent from
there in 1956 to study
Chinese at the University of
Beijin. When she returned to
her native country in 1963,
she taught Chinese at the
University of Bucharest. In
1970 she came on aliyah to
Israel and taught Chinese for
a time at the Hebrew
University.

Israel Leads
Inflation Fight
Geneva (JTA) — Israel led
the world in beating down in-
flation last year according to
"ILO Information," the mon-
thly newsletter of the Inter-
national Labor Organization,
a United Nations agency bas-
ed in Geneva.
The newsletter said 1986
was a turning point for
several countries beset by
galloping inflation. In Israel,
the inflation rate plummeted
from 185 percent to 20 per-
cent. Bolivia reduced infla-
tion from 175 percent to 66
percent, Argentina from 355
to 82 percent and Brazil from
228 to 68 percent.
Pope Worries
Italian Jew
New York — The president
of Italy's Jewish community,
Tullia Zevi, warns that recent
papal actions signify that "a
trend appears to be develop-
ing in the Church toward an
"appropriation" of the
Shoah."
In prepared remarks on
Vatican-Jewish relations to a
meeting of the United States
section of the World Jewish
Congress, Zevi said that
unlike other figures within
the Roman Catholic Church,
"the Pope himself does not ap-
pear to be supportive of the
advocates of Christian repen-
tance" for centuries-long in-
justices by the Church
against the Jewish people.
