Kiev, Ukraine (JTA) — About
150 scholars and writers from
Ukraine, Russia, other European
countries, Israel and the United
States recently took part in an in-
ternational Yiddish conference
here.
The conference, held during
the last days of August, returned
Kiev to the map of Yiddish-speak-
ing cities following a gap of more
than 60 years, during which the
Communists erased traces of
Jewish culture and the Nazis
eradicated Jews.
"In Ukraine we have a rich
Yiddish culture," said Leonid Fin-
berg, one of the organizers of the
seventh World Conference for
Yiddish.
"For about 60 years we haven't
had the opportunity to work in
this field. Only in the last few
years could we achieve this," Mr.
Finberg said. He was referring to
the demise of the Soviet Union
and the efforts by Ukrainian of-
ficials to enable Jewish life to
flourish here again.
The conference was sponsored
by the World Council for Yiddish
and Jewish Culture, headquar-
tered in Israel; the International
Committee for the Promotion of
Jewish Studies in Eastern Eu-
rope; the International Solomon
University; and the Jewish Stud-
ies Association of Ukraine.
Other sponsors were the
American Jewish Joint Distrib-
ution Committee, the Association
of Jewish Communities and Or-
ganizations in Ukraine and the
Rich Foundation, according to
Mr. Finberg.
The conference, which was
held in the House of Artists, was
preceded by a "Seminar on Jew-
ish Civilization and Jewish
Thought" which was attended by
about 100 scholars, Mr. Finberg
said.
Israeli Suspect
In Judaica Theft
Budapest (JTA) — Interpol has
issued an arrest warrant for an
Israeli citizen suspected of in-
volvement in last year's theft of
a priceless collection from the
Jewish Museum here, according
to Hungarian media reports.
The man, identified as Arie
Bakal, is a Romanian-born Is-
raeli. The 51-year-old Mr. Bakal
is reportedly a popular figure in
the flea market in Jaffa, Israel.
He is the third suspect in what
has been described as the biggest
theft of Judaica of this century.
The precious items, which
were stolen last December, were
recently discovered in Romania
and returned to Budapest, where
they have again been put on dis-
play.
