The survey noted that anti-
Semitic attitudes were most of-
ten held by those over age 65,
those who are less educated (a
high school degree or less), and
blue-collar or semi-skilled
workers.
Twice as many black
Americans (34 percent) fell into
the hard-core anti-Semite cat-
egory as did whites (17 per-
cent), although, as in the
general population, the level of
anti-Semitism among blacks
also dropped since 1964, when
45 percent of those blacks sur-
veyed were classified as "most"
anti-Semitic.

dence that recent efforts to
build bridges between the black
and Jewish communities have
been working."
The poll showed that there
is a high correlation between
anti-Semitism and such other
inter-ethnic and inter-religious
problems, such as racism, xeno-
phobia and intolerance. "Those
Americans who belong to the
most racist, most xenophobic
or most intolerant segments of
the population are considerably
more likely than the public at
large to fall into the most anti-
Semitic group as well," an ADL<
overview report on the survey
concluded.
"Thus, the seeds of anti,
Semitism are much more like-
ly to flow from ... inner beliefs
— i.e., an individual's basic val-
ues or view of the world — than,
from external events, such as
a recession or disaffection with
the political process," the,
overview said.
The amount of contact an in-
dividual has with Jews in day-
to-day life — or the fact that a
person has Jewish friends or
relatives — appears to have no
bearing on that person's
propensity to hold anti-Semiti6
beliefs, according to the survey.
Among blacks, however,
greater contact and close friend-
ships with Jews seem to bear
some connection to less accep-
tance of anti-Semitic beliefs, 1
the survey found.

nn Arbor police are
investigating a series
of vandalism in-
cidents at the Univer-
sity of Michigan Hillel
Foundation and Beth Israel
Congregation.
Since Oct. 25, rocks have
been thrown through
windows at both facilities
five times. The latest in-
cidents occurred Sunday
night at Hillel and Monday
night at Beth Israel.
The two buildings, south of
the University of Michigan
campus, are within a mile of
each other. Hillel, at 1429
Hill St., is a $3 million struc-
ture which in 1988 replaced
the old Hillel House at the
same location. Beth Israel is
at 2000 Washtenaw Ave.
In July, both buildings
were hit with rocks; Hillel
also was daubed with anti-

Semitic graffiti.

Ann Arbor police declined
to discuss their investigation

or security measures at the
two buildings.
Michael Brooks, executive
director of U-M Hillel, saic.,?1
the Hill Street facility has
been struck each time on the
west side of the building,
where offices are located. He:)
estimated damage at $350 -
$400 for each incident to
repair windows and blinds-,-
Hillel has a $5,000 deducti-
ble, so the damage has not
been covered by insurance.

Beth Israel president'
Steven Klein guessed the
damage to the synagogue
has averaged $500 an incif'
dent. Some of the damage
has been covered by the con-
gregation's insurance,
"depending on whether it-
was the glass doors or a little
window," Mr. Klein said.

Unlike at Hillel, the
cidents at Beth Israel have
occurred on all sides of the
building.
