NCJW Plunges Into Fight
Over Family Planning

At least one Jewish group
is wading into a tough fight
over family planning.
The Title 10 family plann-
ing program has not been of-
ficially reauthorized in five
years, mostly because of the
furor over funding for abor-
tions and for contraceptives
for teenagers. Instead, the
program has been maintain-
ed — albeit at reduced levels
— by a series of stopgap
spending measures.
Now, a full reauthoriza-
tion bill is ready to go in the
Senate, which would con-
tinue programs providing
low-income people with con-
traceptive information and
services, maternal and in-
fant health services and
gynecological exams.
But the Senate leadership
is dragging its feet — a
situation that does not

please the National Council
of Jewish Women.
"This program has been
instrumental in helping
people with family plann-
ing," said NCJW's Washing-
ton representative, Sammie
Moshenberg. "For a lot of
teenaged and poor women,
Title 10 has been their in-
troduction into the health
care system."
The bill does not deal
specifically with abortion
services; still, Moshenberg
expects that it will become
the target of anti-abortion
legislators who may attempt
to cripple the bill with un-
palatable amendments.
NCSJ is working with
Planned Parenthood in urg-
ing Senate leaders to
schedule the bill as soon as
possible.

OSI May Lose Chances
To Track War Criminals

With the Soviet Union
open to Westerners for the
first time in decades, there is
an unprecedented oppor-
tunity for American officials
involved in tracking down
Nazi war criminals.
But several observers here
are asking a question with
serious implications for the
effort to chase down the re-
maining Nazis: where is the
Office of Special Investiga-
tions (OSI)?
The beleaguered agency,
according to sources close to
the Justice Department, has
not interviewed any
witnesses in the Soviet
Union since October, 1987 —
despite the fact that changes
in that country have provid-
ed new opportunities for col-
lecting information on the
Nazi fugitives thought to be

in Soviet territory.
"They should be in there
taking advantage of the new
climate, taking depositions,"
said one close observer of the
agency. "They haven't done
that — which indicates to me
that the agency's problems
have not yet been solved."
Last year, it was reported
that OSI was operating with
less than half its normal
complement of lawyers; with
the Justice Department
budget under close scrutiny,
it is unlikely OSI's staffing
situation will improve
significantly in the near
future.
The Soviet connection is
especially important since
many of the witnesses and
potential defendants in war
crimes cases are in the
Soviet Union.

Arms From East Europe
Could End Up In Mideast

On the surface, the deci-
sion to ship retired U.S.
tanks to Egypt does not
threaten the strategic bal-
ance in the Middle East —
and should, according to
most observers, provoke
hardly a murmur on Capitol
Hill.
But a deeper issue involves
how the volatile Middle East
will fare as the Cold War in
Europe winds down, and
both sides begin thinking

about cutting costs by
transferring weapons to
other parts of the world.
"These tanks are new
enough to be useful," said
Shoshana Bryen, director of
the Jewish Institute for na-
tional Security Affairs (MN-
SA). "But we don't need
them. More importantly,
we're trying to get stuff out
of Europe before it has to be
destroyed."
