The Art of Dry Cleaning:

Evacuation Of
Yugoslav Jews

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Con-
tingency plans have been
drawn up to transfer the
Jewish community of strife-
torn Yugoslavia to Israel,
according to Uri Gordon,
head of the Jewish Agency's
Immigration Department.
"The establishment here is
prepared. But it depends on
the Jews there," he said.
Yugoslavia is in the throes
of civil war. Fighting has
been especially fierce in the
secession-minded republic of
Croatia, home to about 2,000
Jews, most of whom live in
the capital, Zagreb.
Mr. Gordon estimated the
total Jewish population of
Yugoslavia to be about
5,500, of whom 1,500 live in
the national capital,
Belgrade; 1,200 in Zagreb;
and 1,300 in Sarajevo, capi-
tal of the province of Bosnia-
Hercegovina.
He said Jewish Agency
emissaries have gone to
Yugoslavia in recent months
to observe the condition of
the Jewish population. One
is at the moment in the area
of the fighting, he said.
In New York, Michael
Schneider, executive vice
president of the American
Jewish Joint Distribution
Committee, confirmed that
the Jewish Agency has made
plans to evacuate the
Yugoslav Jewish commun-
ity, if necessary.
"We understand they will ,
be doing everything they can
to get people to Israel," he
said.
He said JDC officials have
also made arrangements
with Jewish communities in
neighboring Hungary,
Austria and Italy to tem-
porarily house Jews fleeing
unrest in Yugoslavia.
JDC, meanwhile, has
allocated emergency funds
to provide additional medi-
cine and food to the
Yugoslav community if the
fighting worsens. Regular
aid to the Jewish community
of Croatia, which normally
goes through Belgrade, is
now being provided directly
to the Jews of Zagreb, Mr.
Schneider said.
He also said JDC staff
have helped beef up security
and otherwise fortify the
Jewish Old Age Home in
Zagreb, which also houses
the local synagogue. Recall-
ing the bombing last month
of the Jewish community
center in downtown Zagreb,
Mr. Schneider said, "We're
trying to make sure that
doesn't happen" to the Jew-
ish Old Age Home.

Dry cleaning is the use of non-water based
(hence dry) liquids to remove soil and stains
from fabrics. All dry cleaners have access to
the same liquids but not all are as skillful in
their use. Like a master artists' skill with his
paints, we at MY Cleaners are more skilled and
achieve masterful results in dry cleaning.

One of the many reasons why knowledgeable
customers say "MY Cleaners is my cleaners."
