Survivor Murdered
Over Swastika Graffiti

New York (JTA) — The
Jewish community here is
reacting with shock and
disappointment to the brutal
murder of an Auschwitz sur-
vivor in the Brighton Beach
section of Brooklyn.
Max Kowalski, 72, was
stabbed and beaten to death
on last weekend, allegedly by
a neighbor who scrawled a
swastika on the door of his
boardinghouse room hours
before the murder.
"It's a double and triple
tragedy for a man to have sur-
vived Auschwitz and then to
die in New York under the
shadow of a swastika," said
Nobel laureate and Holocaust
survivor Elie Wiesel.
Ruben Martinez Zucarino,
36, was charged with second-
degree murder after
Kowalski's body was found by
police in Zucarino's room.
Kowalski had been stabbed
repeatedly in the neck and
face with scissors and a fork
and beaten over the head
with a religious statue.
Police believe Zucarino
drew a swastika and a skull
and crossbones on Kowalski's
door with a blue magic

marker ea.. iier on that day.
Kowalski's son, Lenny, 38,
discovered the symbols on his
father's door. After cleaning
the graffiti from his door,
Kowalski confronted
Zucarino, and the two men
fought.
Acquaintances described
Kowalski as a "nice man,"
who was gentle and friendly.
He was nicknamed "The
mayor of Brighton Beach."
Kowalski came to the
United States in 1949, after
surviving the Auschwitz con-
centration camp. He lost his
parents, a brother and a sister
in the Holocaust.
Newsday
described
Zucarino's room as a "scrap-
book of total insanity," con-
taining pornography as well
as drawings with references
to Iran, Libya, the Soviet
Union and Spain.
In the last page of
Zucarino's sketchbook, the
newspaper said, was a draw-
ing of a man with an arrow
through his heart and the
word "Uzi" written in red
ink. The drawing was dated
approximately three hours
before the murder occurred.

UNESCO To Consider
Palestine, Not PLO State

Paris (JTA) — Israeli of-
ficials said last week they
were "more or less satisfied"
that efforts to have a "state of
Palestine" admitted to the
United Nations Economic,
Scientific and Cultural
Organization have suffered a
major setback, even though a
prolonged legal and
diplomatic battle seems
likely.
UNESCO's 51-member ex-
ecutive council announced
last week, after studying a
proposal by seven Arab and
African nations, that it would
place a request for
"Palestine's" admission on
the agenda of UNESCO's
General Conference.
The General Conference,
the agency's equivalent of the
U.N. General Assembly, will
convene in October.
Israeli officials promptly
pointed out that the Ex-
ecutive Council made no
reference to a "state of
Palestine," only to
"Palestine," a non-existent
entity.
The decision, adopted by
show of hands, was a com-
promise worked out by the 12
nations of the European Com-
munity and representatives

of the Arab states.
But the Israelis credited the
United States, which quit
UNESCO five years ago and
has made clear it will not
return if a Palestinian state is
admitted or if the Palestine
Liberation Organization is
given the status of a
sovereign state. The Israeli of-
ficials said it was clearly in
UNESCO's interests for the
United States to rejoin.
The executive council also
promised to review the mat-
ter one more time, when it
convenes again in September.
The General Conference can-
not admit new members
without the executive coun-
cil's approval.

Six Killed

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israel
Defense Force paratroopers
killed six guerrillas of the ex-
tremist pro-Iran Hezbollah
last weekend during a search
and destroy mission north of
the southern Lebanon securi-
ty zone.
Sources in Lebanon said the
clash occurred less than three
miles from the Syrian army's
forward positions in the
Bekaa Valley of eastern
Lebanon.
