Just in Time for the Holidays .. .

ter raising necessary funds, he
was on his way to Russia with
a film crew of two.
Mr. Fox spent a month in
Russia, filming 60 hours of raw
footage which included inter-
views with Russian Jews, gen-
tiles, government leaders and
members of hate groups like
Pamyat.
As he interviewed leaders of
Pamyat, who hold Jews respon-
sible for everything from the
Bolshevik Revolution to eco-
nomic hardship, Mr. Fox found
his life threatened on several oc-
casions. But when he was fin-
ished, the essence of this group
was captured for everyone to see.
"People don't realize most
Jews in Russia still cannot
leave," he said. "Many are poor
and can't afford to get to
Moscow for a visa, much less
afford a ticket out of Russia.
"If you're a Jew and you try
to sell your house, your neigh-
bors know and they will try and
steal the money you made on

Mr. Fox did not
intend to produce
Freedom to Hate.

"But as I began writing for
and about theater, I started get-
ting into my own Jewish roots,"
Mr. Fox said. In 1979, he went
to Israel to research what would
have been his second book.
Then he met up with Major
Sa'ad Haddad, commander of
South Lebanon's Christian mili-
tia and an ally of Israel.
"I spent a lot of time with him
and started writing articles
about him and the struggle be-
tween the PLO and Lebanese
forces," said Mr. Fox, whose sto-
ries on the Middle East have
been published in the New York
Times and other major
American newspapers. "For
someone who came from
Broadway, it was quite an edu-
cation." ❑

Jewish Agency
Acts On Spending

Jerusalem (JTA) — The Jew-
ish Agency and the World
Zionist Organization are
clamping down on spending
by senior officials.
New policies announced
last week will eliminate the
use of corporate credit cards,
require detailed monthly
expense reports, and ban the
personal use of "frequent
flier" bonuses accrued
through agency travel.
Also, everyone, including
the chairman and the direc-
tors- general, will be accoun-
table to someone for their
expenditures.
The rules were recom-
mended by a committee
formed. last February after
the revelation that the agen-
cy's chairman, Simcha
Dinitz, had personal credit
card bills paid by the Jewish

WINTER SPORTSWEAR

Agency and was otherwise
lax in handling expenses.
The district attorney here
has reportedly recommended
that Mr. Dinitz be charged
on fraud counts that could
bring up to a 10- year
sentence.
The new rules apply to
about 50 agency officials.
• Agency Treasurer Hanan
Ben-Yehuda told the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency that the
procedures for work-related
expenses already on the
books provided too little ac-
countability and too many
loopholes.
"Now, everyone is respon-
sible to someone else," he
said.
The new system has
penalties for failing to comp-
ly with accounting re-
quirements. ❑

will just leave without even try-
ing to sell their homes."
Mr. Fox's next project will be
a sequel to Freedom To Hate
and will focus on Operation
Exodus, the Jewish Federation/
United Jewish Appeal cam-
paign to rescue and resettle
Jews of the former Soviet
Union.
At the beginning of his ca-
reer, Mr. Fox was never one to
work on Jewish issues. His first
book, Angela Ambrosia, was the
true story of a 16-year-old girl
diagnosed with leukemia.
