wherever it was, would con-
tinue to grow and survive."
On the theory that survival
depends on unity, Eisenberg
devoted much of his early
Windsor efforts towards help-
ing to unite the Jewish
community.
When the Jewish Com-
munity Council opened the
Centre on Jan. 2, 1959, it pro-
vided a communal address
where all were comfortable.
"I think we got that
philosophy across," says
Eisenberg. "The accomplish-
ment I feel best about is that
today we have achieved unity
without uniformity and dif-
ference without division."
How does it feel to leave a
job after 31 years? "Mixed,"

says Eisenberg. "On the one

hand, I'm ready, but it will be
a marked adjustment. I plan
to stay involved, but I have
made a conscious decision
that I don't want to be a thorn
in my successor's side."

Eisenberg has given the
JCC's search committee a
generous amount of time to
find his replacement. He says
his motives are also a bit
selfish. "I've been here more
than 30 years. I've been a part
of the building of the
organization. I would like it
to continue to grow and I
want to make sure that the
new person is better than I
am and can take it fur-
ther." ❑

KNOWLEDGE. ETHICS
AND CONSUMER PROTECTION

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Prime
Minister Yitzhak Shamir
sent a farewell message to
outgoing President Ronald
Reagan over the weekend,
describing him as "one of the
greatest friends" Israel has
ever had.
Defense Minister Yitzhak
Rabin sent similar cables to
two departing members of the
Reagan administration,
Defense Secretary Frank
Carlucci and Secretary of
State George Shultz.
The two-term Reagan ad-
ministration officially
terminated at noon Friday,
E.S.T, when President George
Bush was sworn into office.
Shamir's cable to Reagan
began:
"Dear Ron,
I am most grateful to you
for your warm words of con-
gratulation to me and my col-
leagues on the formation of
our new government of na-
tional unity. This government
faces the formidable chal-
lenge of external dangers, of
economic hardship and the
ongoing search for peace with
our neighbors, for peace and
coexistence with the Palestin-
ian Arabs who live under our
rule.
We shall look for solutions
with utmost vigor and pray
that we shall be successful."
The prime minister extoll-
ed Reagan's outstanding
leadership of the United
States of America and the
free world.
"The people of Israel will be
eternally grateful for your
profound understanding of
this small nation's history, its
travails and triumphs," he
said.
He observed that "the rela-
tionship between our two

countries has never been bet-
ter than in the period of your
leadership of the United
States.
"It is no wonder, therefore,
that the memorandum of
agreement we signed on
Israel's 40th anniversary is
already known and spoken of
as the Reagan agreement,"
Shamir said.

Is Tel Aviv
A Dry Town?

Tel Aviv (JTA) — A ruptured
water main and a strike by
repairmen could mean a dry
spell for Tel Aviv residents.
The broken pipe is near the
Rosh Ha'avin pumping sta-
tion run by Mekorot, the
government-owned national
water carrier.
But Mekorot workers salk-
ed off their jobs over the
weekend, refusing to repair a
smaller break in a water pipe
in the Jerusalem area.
With Tel Aviv facing a
serious water shortage, the ci-
ty council voted Monday to
reactivate other pumps which
were shut down some time
ago because of pollution by
sea water.
The Mekorot workers are
striking because the Treasury
has refused them the 11 per-
cent wage increase over two
years promised to all govern-
ment employees.
The government argues
that Mekorot is not earning a
profit. The workers say that it
is not supposed to make a pro-
fit since it must supply water
and related services at fixed
prices.
Mekorot is responsible for
the countrywide water supp-
ly network.
