Looking back, Kushner believes the best part of his job is working with the Detroit Jewish community. "Without any shmaltz," he said, "this is a fabulous com- munity with committed peo- ple willing to work with you . . . Sure, there are times you wish they would go a different way, but they know what they are doing?' He added that he had -always been lucky to have a good staff and very good lay support at the Community Council. Council President Leon Cohan said Kushner will not be easily replaced. "He has Continued from Page 5 Southfield and Farmington Hills to be charged at long distance rates. Almost half of the residents of West Bloomfield are in the Pontiac or Walled Lake telephone exchanges. Every time they call the rest of West Bloomfield, it's a long distance call — making it quite expensive to reach out and touch someone. For years, Michigan Bell has heard complaints and received petitions, but nothing has been done. "Michigan Bell has gouged this area long enough," said Monast, who, together with her husband, moved to West Bloomfield from Southfield last June and hasn't had a phone bill under $100 since. The situation is the result of many changes in the makeup of Oakland County since the telephone boun- daries were set up prior to World War II. At that time, the eastern portion of West Bloomfield was considered the outskirts of Pontiac and excluded from the Mayfair exchange. Last month, more than 100 residents, including State Representative David Honigman (R-West Bloom- field), gathered at the West Bloomfield fire station, hop- ing to find a method to reduce their monthly phone bills. The situation will now be presented to the Public Ser- vice Commission in Lansing sometime in the next two months. But Monast isn't stopping there. She plans to continue talking to local media and sending out petitions. For the next two Sundays she is holding a five-hour vigil at the Crosswinds Mall (former- ly Pine Lake Mall) from noon to 5 p.m., gathering signatures and answering questions. "People are afraid to buck the phone company," she said. "But I'm working every day to try and change this." Lincoln Towers Continued from Page 5 to be replaced. Cleaning crews have been working furiously all week. During and since the blaze, residents have not had an easy time. Sections of the building were roped off and many were unable to enter their apartments for several days, forcing them to stay with friends and relatives. There is also a great deal of question as to why the smoke alarms were turned off and the doors remained locked. "What's the purpose of hav- ing doors and alarms if they don't use them?" asked Annie Ginis, whose mother, Josephine Leib, lives on the first floor. Despite anger and frustra- tion, throughout the ordeal the elderly Lincoln Tower residents have remained calm. "Many of the people here are Holocaust survivors, so this is a piece of cake," said Eve Lieberman, who was evacuated from her fourth floor apartment. "There was no hysteria. Everybody handled it with equanimity." The manager did not com- ment on the building viola- tions or the work of the fire fighters, saying only the clean-up was going well and should be completed by the end of the week.
