married; he provided food to
old age homes, and gave sus-
tained aid and comfort to all
sorts of other unfortunates.
A recovering heroin addict
at a drug rehabilitation
center just off Etzel Street
said Mr. Asian even con-
tributed to the center and
paid for the party it was
planning for former patients
who had managed to stay
clean.
"He was a good man." "He
was the best." "He had a
good heart, he helped every-
one." "I was heartsick over
his death." That's how most
people in Hatikva spoke
after the funeral.
There were other com-
ments, though: "He was a
dirty rag; a lot of people died
because of him," said a high
school senior arguing with
the candy store employee
about Mr. Asian's legacy.
"Some people walk around
here half-dead because of
heroin, and he brought it
in."
Many locals, like the grill
owner, refused to believe
that Mr. Asian was a killer
or a drug lord. Some thought
this was a part of his past,
but that he had "repented"
the last 10-15 years and had
entered "straight" busi-
nesses and neighborhood
philanthropy.
Said the candy store
worker: "The police knew he
was a murderer but they
couldn't catch him; he was
too sophisticated. He was at
the top of the heap, and not
everybody can get there. He
was a billionaire, the
greatest, and I was a big
fan."
There's a sacred tradition
in Israel to give exaggerated
praise to someone who's just
died. Not only fallen soldiers
and terror victims, but
murder victims and even
those killed in traffic ac-
cidents are written up in the
press with glowing com-
ments from friends and
family.
So it went with Yehezkel
Asian, a folk hero in the
Hatikva Quarter, a poor boy
who'd made it big. Unless
you learned his life story, or
unless you asked around
long enough to find those
few dissenting voices, you'd
never know he'd been a local
menace, that for Hatikva,
and for Israel, he had in fact
been Public Enemy No. 1. E

Jews Hail Mulroney
As A Supporter
Montreal (JTA) — Canadian
Prime Minister Brian
Mulroney, who announced
his resignation, was hailed
by Jewish groups as an ally
and longtime supporter.
Mr. Mulroney, in office
since 1984, ended weeks of
speculation and paved the
way for a new leader to take
over Conservative Party at a
leadership convention in
June and take the party into
the next elections this fall.
Polls taken within the last
year showed Mr. Mulroney
to have become the most un-
popular prime minister ever.
Canadian Jewish Congress
wished Mulroney well in his
future endeavors. "The CJC
policy has and always will be
to remain non-partisan,"
said CJC national president
Irving Abella.
"Nonetheless, as the na-
tional representative body of
the Jewish community, we
recognize that (Mulroney)
has demonstrated great per-
sonal interest and sensitivi-
ty to the domestic and inter-
national concerns of the
Jewish community of
Canada. As well, we were
very supportive of his
singular commitment to na-
tional unity."
Mr. Mulroney failed last
year to push through a ref-
erendum that would have
solidified unity among Eng-
lish- and French-speaking
Canadians.
Mr. Abella pointed to
several initiatives personal-
ly begun by Mulroney that
were helpful to Jewish in-
terest.
In February 1985, the
government established the
Deschenes Commission of
Inquiry on War Criminals,
which resulted in a law be-
ing passed in September
1987 enabling the Justice
Department to seek out and
prosecute Nazi was
criminals residing in
Canada.
Other initiatives, said Mr.
Abella, were "the battle
against racism and anti-
Semitism. His longstanding
friendship and understan-
ding for Israel has been
