What Khruschev said may
not be a smoking gun, but
it's pretty close."
"How you play a story
depends on its competition
for that day," said Mr. Cola-
suonno, "but we never had
any doubt that this was a
natural story for us."
Until quite recently, the
Post had traditionally had a
high Jewish readership.
This was usually attributed
to the high number of Jews
in New York and their
agreement with the paper's
liberal editorial policies.
Compared with New York's
other tabloid, the Daily News,
the Post still has a substantial
number of Jewish readers,
according to editor Cola-
sounno.
Yet, he said, "We're living
in a Third World city now. A
big part of our Jewish
readership is not in the
Bronx, but in Miami."
Mr. Colasuonno did not
recall the Post's editorial
position on the Rosenbergs
in the 1950s, but he was fair-
ly certain that Dorothy
Schiff, then the paper's
publisher and a devout lib-
eral, "was more than sympa-
thetic toward Ethel and
Julius."

The Journal also reports
that the Lubavitch are well-
prepared for the Messiah
and have even built a house
in Kfar Chabad, a suburb of
Tel Aviv, where the Messiah
would live. The building,
"an imposing, three-story,
red brick edifice, which
sticks out from the barren
desert . . . like an anomalous
stage set," is an exact rep-
lica of the Lubavitch world
headquarters in Brooklyn's
Crown Heights. It is also
where Rabbi Schneerson,
who has barely set foot out of
Brooklyn in his life, would
live upon the Messiah's ar-
rival.
What would the rebbe do
in Israel? "Exactly what he
