There was an empowering desire to study and to learn. Now there is cause for regret that after three decades the curricula were reduced to three days a week. Subsequent declines will surely be indicated in educational studies. Anticipated changes will surely be aimed at acquiring new forcefulness in projected studies. There is no doubt that the day school ideals, which originally met with opposition from the assimi- lated in our midst, will have the greatest influence upon the new problems under con- sideration. The major aim must lead to study and learning, assur- ing knowledge for our youth and justified dignity in leadership. Whatever evolu- tion is contemplated, it must be with unlimited duties to avoid reduction in studies and to guarantee the tradi- tional commitments. ❑ 13th Anniversary SALE 20% OFF ALL FALL AND WINTER SHOES 3 DAYS ONLY!

"Our assessment is that Iraq still has the capacity to launch missiles at us, and therefore all related intel- ligence is helpful," Defense Minister Moshe. Arens declared. But with one exception, none of the politicians who waxed indignant over U.S. complaints admitted Mr. Arens dismissed Iraq's protest as "the height of cynicism and hypocrisy." outright that there had in- deed been such flights last week. U.S. officials protested the Oct. 4 flights at the highest level. They violated the airspace of several Arab countries just a week before Secretary of State James Baker was due to go to the Middle East for yet another attempt to set up an Arab- Israeli peace conference. Iraq lodged a formal pro- test with the United Nations. But Israeli officials, who refused to confirm or deny the flights, nevertheless in- dicated that their purpose would be to gather informa- tion about hitherto unknown Scud missile-launching sites found by U.N. observer teams in western Iraq. Except for Housing Min- ister Ariel Sharon, officials who discussed the subject on radio and television in- variably prefaced their remarks about the alleged flights with the qualifying statement, "if they took place." Labor Party leader Shimon Peres said Israel did not need anyone's permis- sion to overfly sites in Iraq which represented a threat to Israel. He added, however, that the timing and routing should be carefully con- sidered. Likud spokesmen took their cue from Arens, who criticized the U.S. reaction. Mr. Arens said that he did not believe Israeli recon- naissance flights could jeopardize the proposed peace conference. "I don't want to enter into the operational actions of the air force. I want to say unequivocally that any responsibility for defending the security of Israel rests with its government and we will continue to do so as we see fit," Mr. Arens said. He dismissed Iraq's U.N. protest as "the height of cynicism and hypocrisy" and suggested that the Ameri- cans probably complained at the urging of Saudi Arabia. Defense Ministry spakes- man Danny Naveh said Israel would continue to take any "step necessary" for its self-defense. Mr. Sharon referred direct- ly to the overflights without qualifiers. "The flights are essential for security," he said on a television inter- view. He hinted, as did Mr. Arens, that the United States did not always supply Israel with complete intel- ligence data and that Israel must see to its own security needs.
