FRIDAY, JULY 10, 1992

ewish groups are work-
ing hard to take ad-
vantage of the fact that
the upcoming Democratic
National Convention will be
in New York — the de facto
"capital" of American
Jewry.
The New York Jewish
Community Relations Coun-
cil will host a pickle-and-
pastrami reception for Jew-
ish delegates from around
the country, as well as the
entire New York delegation.
The group is also sending
out packets to Jewish dele-
gates with information
about Jewish services and
facilities in the New York
area.
The American Israel
Public Affairs Committee
(AIPAC) will host a major
reception on Sunday and
hold at least one briefing
during the convention.
The National Jewish
Democratic Council, which
is working to assure a big
turnout of Jewish voters for

Democratic candidates, will
hold a reception and several
briefings. Americans for
Peace Now and Tikku:-.
magazine also will hos'i
gatherings.
Numerous Jewish groups,
including the American
Jewish Committee and the
American Jewish Congress,
will send officials to the con-
-
hall to provide ,
formation about issues of
concern to the Jewish com-
munity and monitor possible
moves by groups opposed to
the pro-Israel language in
the draft platform.
And the Union of Orthodox-
Jewish Congregations of - I
America will host breakfast c
meetings for the Democrats
— strictly kosher, of course.
All this is intended to help I
the approximately 500 Jew-
ish delegates feel at home:
But there is a political agen-Th
da, as well: Pro-Israel ac-
tivists hope that the show of
Jewish strength will demon-
strate how the party has
changed since 1988, when
Rep. Charles Schumer,
D-N.Y., was booed by pro-
Palestinian forces.

Clinton Satisfies
Jewish Supporters

Jewish leaders who met
with Bill Clinton last week
were generally pleased with
what they heard.
"Clinton was great," said
Morrie Amitay, a longtime
Jewish politico. "The cam-
paign in the Jewish com-
munity is way ahead of
where previous campaigns
have been at this point."
But privately, some par-
ticipants offered a more
mixed response.
"Mr. Clinton was
thoughtful and respectful,"
said one participant. "But
there was no exuberance.
This is not yet a campaign
that has really touched the
Jewish community in any
fundamental way."
An exhausted-looking Mr.
Clinton received high marks
from participants for his
cautious answer about mov-
ing the American embassy
to Jerusalem. Mr. Clinton
indicated that he would not
make the move if it would
jeopardize the Middle East
peace process.
But his reference to a
possible United Nations role
in guaranteeing peace in the
region elicited an audible
groan from the Jewish ac-
tivists.

Bill Clinton.
Didn't dazzle Jewish leaders.

In general, Mr. Clinton
seemed to satisfy his Jewish
backers, even if he didn't
dazzle them.
"He's trying to juggle diff-
erent constituencies, and
one has to admire the way
he's performing that trick,"
said an official with a major
Jewish organization who at-
tended the session.
"He's also trying to juggle
several very different Jew-
ish constituencies with very
different views of the Middle
East. Given those
difficulties, he did an admi-
rable job."
