These leaders say that in or- der to provide sufficient funds for educational and cultural pro- grams geared to the young, it is necessary to cut services to the poor, the disabled and the elder- ly. Yet, we learn elsewhere in the article that the Allied Jewish Campaign raised $1 million more than last year. Despite this, our leaders would have us be- lieve that they had no choice but to reduce funds needed by the most vulnerable members of our community. They had a choice. They chose to increase the al- location to the Jewish Federa- tion of Metropolitan Detroit by 11 percent. They chose to in- crease contributions for "nation- al dues" by 9 percent, to increase the allocation of the Jewish In- formation Service by 18 percent and to increase the allocation for Transportation Services by 116 percent. Our leaders chose to continue to use an archaic formula that requires 60 percent of all funds raised by the Campaign to be sent to Israel despite the great economic progress that has been made in Israel. There is no need to sacrifice the needs of the most vulnerable members of our community for the need to strengthen our Jew- ish educational and cultural pro- grams. We have the means to do both; our leaders chose other- wise. Albert I. Ascher Lathrop Village Senator Riegle Fails In Ethics Your article, "Senator Riegle Stumps in the Jewish Commu- nity" (Aug. 27), correctly de- scribes Senator Riegle's excellent record of supporting IsraeL How- ever, to be Jewish also means to be ethical. Sen. Riegle's record of ethics is not excellent or even very good. Perhaps we should look care- fully before we support a candi- date for high office. Harvey Bronstein Southfield All The Guards Were Guilty As a survivor of Auschwitz, I have remained skeptical about anything but divine justice. The judgment on John Demjanjuk has brought horrible memories back and reinforced my skepti- cism. There seems to be a "reason- able" doubt about his being Ivan the Terrible. There is very little doubt, however, that he was a guard at Sobibor and at Trawni- ki, the first a death camp and the second a brutal labor camp. One of the differences between Auschwitz and Sobibor was that Auschwitz had non-Jewish in- mates and Sobibor did not. So- bibor existed strictly for the killing of Jews. In 1942, as the SS Operation Reinhard, the code name for the final push to annihilate the Jews of Europe, began, SS troops were being removed from camp duties and moved to more glorious tasks of fighting at the front. They were replaced by Ukrain- ian volunteers, often seen as more vicious and sadistic than German guards. Those who volunteered tend- ed to come from proto-fascist groups in the Ukraine and were long predisposed toward anti- Jewish feelings and actions. Among those volunteers was Demjanuk. No guard at Sobibor, because of the camp's purpose, could es- cape perpetrating terrible crimes against the Jews there. At Trawniki, a camp where Ukrainian guards prodded Jews to work until the slave laborers dropped dead, the Operation Reinhard forces insisted that the camp be periodically purged and inmates were sent to be slaugh- tered at the death camp at Lublin. This, too, Demjanuk par- ticipated in. In my view, only the name of the place was changed. The man's crimes and his guilt de- mand that he not be allowed to return to this country. Abraham Pasternak Southfield Blind Eye To Bosnia I would like to draw some dif- ferent lessons from the genocide and mass rape occurring in Bosnia-Herzegovina than those which Rabbi Wolkoff presents (Aug. 20). The governments of the world are not merely standing idly by, they are locking the doors of the gas chambers even as they prat- tle about negotiation and peace- ful solutions that reward facts on the ground won through "ethnic cleansing." The first demand for a just so- lution must be the lifting of the arms embargo and the supply- ing of weapons and ammunition to the multi-ethnic Bosnian gov- ernment forces. This lays the groundwork for lasting stability and recognizes the right and ne- cessity of Bosnian self-defense. If Jews in this country, as well as the Israeli government, do not demand or supply such things to the beleaguered heroes of Bosnia, what is left of our moral outrage at the complicity of the interna- tional community in Auschwitz BOSNIA page 12
