Likudniks
Are Fund Raising
Jerusalem (JTA) — A new fund
organized by Likud leaders in Eu-
rope has enraged senior execu-
tives at the Jewish Agency for
Israel, who claim it will sabotage
the campaigns of both the Unit-
ed Jewish Appeal and its Euro-
pean counterpart, Keren
Hayesod.
Heads of Likud offices hi Eu-
rope, meeting in Brussels earlier
this month, launched a new ap-
peal to benefit Jewish settlers in
the West Bank, Gaza Strip and
the Golan Heights.
The sponsors of the appeal
have also placed ads in promi-
nent European publications. The
ads, which charge that money
raised by Keren Hayesod goes to
the Palestine Liberation Organi-
zation and the Palestinians,
urges donors not to contribute to
the traditional fund-raising arms,
according to the Jewish Agency.
The ads encourage donors who
want money to go to Jewish set-
tlements to give to the new fund.
The Jewish Agency's Zionist
executive lashed out at the fund
with Yehiel Leket, the acting
agency chairman, demanding
that it cease operation.
Mr. Leket said it was un-
thinkable that a Zionist party
represented in the Zionist exec-
utive would do something that he
said "undermines the Keren
Hayesod and sabotages their ac-
tivity."
Karen Hayesod Chairman
Shlomo Hillel said the new ap-
peal would greatly harm the
mainstream fund-raising cam-
Paign.
The chairman of the Likud fac-
tion of the Zionist movement,
Shlomo Gravetz, said the Likud
fully supports the new fund, ac-
cording to a Jewish Agency
spokeswoman.
At the same time, Mr. Gravetz
called on the new fund not to
harm the appeals of Keren
Hayesod and UJA, the spokes-
woman said.
Miracle Shines
For Jewish Couple
Jerusalem (JTA) — As Jews
around the world celebrated the
miracle of the oil that burned for
eight days, one Jerusalem couple
was marking a very different
Chanukah miracle.
At Shaare Zedek Hospital, the
couple enrolled in the hospital's
in vitro fertilization program. The
doctors tried a new technique on
the 38-year-old wife.
"Just in time for Chanukah,
when we relate the miracle of the
oil, Yehudit had her own miracle
— she gave birth to a baby boy,"
a spokeswoman told Israel Ra-
dio.
