"WI Rejoice with Jerusalem Engler Continued from Page 1 A family celebration commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Reunification of Jerusalem issue. He immediately called upon the Jewish community to activate itself politically. Though he was surprised that the state agreed to reissue the proclamation, Mr. Schlussel did not change his plea. "We have become far too complacent and comfortable with our position within the American political system," Mr. Schlussel said. "Too often, we have a tendency to revert to our historical shtetl mentality and silently ac- cept the actions of others. "We, as a community, need to recognize that if we have been dealt with in a manner we think is unfair; we need to be vigorous and speak out about those issues we hold dear," Mr. Schlussel said. Jewish Republican leaders said Mr. Engler is a friend to the community, and they said he should not be held responsible for a staff error. They said staff members receive thousands of procla- mations each day, and that the staff person did not real- ize this one should have been handled differently. Mr. Schlussel, they said, should not counter an error of judgment with a call for political action.

"It is unfor- tunate that somebody made a mistake which reflected upon the governor." Mr. Truscott said Dan Pero, Mr. Engler's chief of staff, advised the staff to issue the original proclama- tion as soon as he learned about the situation. "The governor never even saw the proclamation," Ms. Fischer said.

"Arnold is a hands-on in- dividual," said JHA Presi- dent Jack Schon."If you want to find Arnold, you have to go onto the floor to find him. You won't find him behind a desk with a closed door." Mr. Budin came to JHA last year after serving as Delaware's deputy director of health. The Home hired Mr. Budin to develop plans for the future Geriatric Center, which proposes to consolidate the Home's ser- vices and operations onto the Maple-Drake Jewish Com- munity Campus. The Geriatric Center pro- ject would replace Borman Hall and Prentis Manor. Plans are progressing for the center, but they are pending the outcome of litigation over a required certificate of need that regulates the number of nursing home beds a facility can operate. No construction date has been proposed. Meanwhile, Mr. Budin said, JHA must improve its existing facilities for a, smooth transition into the Geriatric Center. Although services and its financial status are looking better, the agency still is not up to par, he said. "If my parents required nursing home care, I would place them here, but because I don't see consistency yet, I (as a family member) would visit at different times on different days throughout the week to make sure care was being provided," Mr. Budin said.
