Schlussel views the im-
migration wave as an oppor-
tunity for Soviet Jewry and
for Israel.
"If even 350,000 Soviet
Jews go to Israel, what an
infusion that would be," he
said, adding the highly
educated Soviet Jews would
be 7.5 - 8 percent of Israel's
population in just a few
years. "It is unbelievable
how that would strengthen
Israel."
But the additional cam-
paign may strain commun-
ity resources. More funds
will be sent to Israel, which
could mean less for local
needs. Increased fundraising
outside the traditional Cam-
paign "corridor" would also
impact the efforts of local
groups which support Israeli
universities, hospitals, chil-
dren's projects and other
needs in Israel, as well as
resources available for local
Jewish agencies.
Schlussel and Aronson met
this week with agency presi-
dents and executives and
with Israel-based organiza-
tion leaders to ask for their
support. They do not want to
see numerous organizations
running separate fundrais-
ing campaigns, using the
Soviet Jews as the focus.
"Federation won't impose
its will on the agencies but
we expect they will work
with us," Schlussel said.
"They did a hell of a job (on
the immigration of Soviet
Jews to Detroit) last year
without a lot of fanfare."
Schlussel and Aronson
recognize that resources will
be strained. They talk of
zero-based budgeting, long-
range planning, the need for
capital improvements at the
Jimmy Prentis Morris Jew-
ish Community Center and
provision of services for the
Soviet Jews coming here.
"But the capital money is
going to help bring people
out of the Soviet Union,"
Schlussel said. "It is a
precarious balance." ❑
Detroiters Assess
Soviet Jewish Exodus

veryone we talked to,
bar none, wants to
leave the Soviet Union
because anti-Semitism once
again is rearing its ugly
head," said Joel Tauber last
week at the conclusion of a
10-day trip to the Soviet
Union, Romania and Israel.
Tauber, fellow Detroiter
David Hermelin and five
other United Jewish Appeal
officers made the trip to
assess the climate in East-
ern Europe and Israel's
preparations to resettle
hundreds of thousands of
Soviet Jews.
The delegation found a
reawakening of Jewish cul-
ture in the Soviet Union, but
also civil unrest, an uncer-
tain economy and a growing
threat of anti-Semitism.
"Jews are fearing for their
safety," Tauber said, "and
they fear that Gorbachev
will not survive. It has been
his policy to allow free
emigration."
The anti-Jewish climate in
the Soviet Union "is a clear
change," Hermelin said,
from his trip to the Soviet
Union three years ago. The
Soviet Jews "don't have a
feeling of trust, and it is not
just two or three people tell-
ing us that."
While in the Soviet Union,
the KGB secret police
published an article in
Pravda warning nationalist
elements against starting
pogroms. "But you're talk-
ing about a nation of 11 time
