item. The point of the story is
to encourage in-depth study,
the rabbi said.
As principal of Diaspora
Yeshiva's chedars in
Jerusalem and Metzad for
children ages 3 to 5 years,
Rabbi Channen has a
45-minute drive from his Met-
zad home near Hebron in the
West Bank to Jerusalem and
back.
The area is on the fringe of
the Arab intifada, or uprising,
but even so, the rabbi is
dismayed to see how "they
are teaching such hate" to
Palestinian children. "They
teach little kids to throw
rocks. They imbed nails in
pieces of rubber and put them
in the road to cause flat tires."
He says his children wonder,
"They don't even know us.
Why do they throw rocks at
us?"
Once, said Rabbi Channen,
as he was driving with his
two older children, Elezar, 9,
and Shlomo, 7, a rock smash-
ed through a car window.
"The only way to get the
slivers of glass off was by
showering," he said. "It is
very hard to explain to little
children why someone would
want to kill us.
"Sure, they are proud that
I do guard duty on the settle-
ment each week. They are
proud that I am in the army.
But they are too young to
understand why an Arab
threw a rock at us. Perhaps
when they are older, there
will be peace, but they won't
forget?'
Perhaps, too, he said, the
purpose of the uprising is "to
awaken another generation"
by way of the headlines in the
papers. "Perhaps a few more
people will remember they're
Jewish."
Rabbi Channen, who also is
fundraising for his school by
visiting Detroit and other ma-
jor cities during his U.S trip,
left for Long Beach last week
to visit his brother Ben,
whom he hasn't seen in five
years.
"I just called him and told
him I was coming," the rabbi
said.

Investor Aids Technion
With '60-Cent Dollars'
STAFF REPORT
Eli A. Scherr has found a
way to use "60-cent dollars"
to pay the balance of a
$10,000 pledge to Technion
— Israel Institute of
Technology.
Scherr, an accountant who
is president of the Michigan
Israel Investment Club as
well as a member of the
American Technion Society,
made a $10,000 pledge Dec.
.
AMPAL helped
Technion improve
Jaffa oranges.
22 to Technion, of which
$1,000 was payable im-
mediately and the balance of
$9,000 due in five years.
lb pay the balance, Scherr
purchased $5,600 in Ampal-
American Israel Corp. bonds
which, when they mature in
five years, will yield $9,000,
or a $3,400 dividend on the
original investment, accor-
ding to Al Schonwetter, Am-
pal Securities Corp.
representative.
"So he'll be using what we
call '60-cent dollars' ($5,600 is
60 percent of $9,000) to
finance the balance of the
pledge," said Schonwetter.
"He's a very knowledgeable
investor."
He said Scherr, who is ex-
ecutive vice president of

Uniland Corp. in Farmington
Hills, became interested in
Ampal when he checked into
Technion's quarterly reports
and saw that most of the
unversity's scientific
discoveries had been turned
into marketable; saleable
ideas by Ampal's financing.
Ampal, which was founded
in 1942 and which stands for
American-Palestine Trading
Co., financed the Technion's
method of improving the
quality of Jaffa oranges as
its first investment; six years
before the birth of Israel.
Among Thchnion's more re-
cent technological
breakthroughs that have
come to manufacture through
Ampal financing are
diagnostic kits that detect
Epstein-Barr syndrome virus
and a "black box" device that
greatly increases the
transmission capacities of
rural telephone lines, thus
eliminating the need for the
costly re-wiring of such com-
munities with fiber-optic
lines.
The Epstein-Barr syndrome
virus causes mononeucleosis
and kidney failure, according
to Schonwetter.
Ampal, an American cor-
poration, finances and invests
in many fields, including
banking, manufacturing, real
estate, gas and oil distribu-
tion and agriculture, and also
operates banks, hotels and
tourist facilities.
