Chief Rabbi To
Stay In Romania
Tel Aviv (JTA) — Chief
Rabbi Moses Rosen of
Romania denied last week
that he plans to resign and
immigrate to Israel now,
though he may some day in
the future.
Rosen stressed in a tele-
phone interview with Israel
Radio that for now, his
presence is needed in
Romania, where the
30,000-member Jewish
community is uncertain of
the future.
The popular movement
that overthrew the 24-year
regime of President Nicolae
Ceausescu and executed him
and his wife, Elena, on Dec.
25, promises democratic rule
in Romania.
But Jews are fearful of an
upsurge of anti-Semitssm if
economic troubles encourage
a search for scapegoats.
Replying to reports that he
had been "close to
Ceausescu," Rosen explain-
ed that his efforts to save
Jewish lives and maintain
Jewish institutions in
Romania depended on his
working with the ousted dic-
tator.
He said he had been
preparing eventually to go to
Israel and received official
permission to leave years
ago.
Israel Radio also inter-
viewed Romania's new
prime minister, Petre
Roman, whose father was
Jewish.
Soldier Has Bad
Trip In Panama
San Antonio (JTA) — It
was a good chute but a bad
trip for 21-year-old Jewish
paratrooper Alec Ross, who
was one of the first of the
U.S. Army's Airborne
Rangers to drop into
Panama on Dec. 20 and one
of the first to be evacuated
for injuries suffered when he
hit the ground.
Ross described his experi-
ences during the invasion of
Panama.
"I jumped out of the plane,
and I had a good parachute,"
he said. "The next thing I
knew I was out of control."
Ross said he shattered his
left knee "into a half a dozen
pieces" when he hit the
ground. He also broke a bone
in his left foot. The impact
knocked him unconscious,
and he was dragged along
the ground by his open
chute.
Ross spent only a few
hours on Panamanian soil.
