A Different World In another dramatic sign of changing times, the Washington chapter of American ORT will hold a major fund-raiser for ed- ucational projects around the world. There's nothing unusual in that — except that the event will take place at the Embassy of Jordan in Washington. Ambas- sador Fayez Tarawneh will at- tend the gathering; so will diplomats from the Israeli em- bassy just down the street. The event came about after a UJA women's campaign trip to Jordan, where Vivian Marion, a leader of the local group, encoun- tered Jordan's ambassador to this country and broached the subject. ORT in Israel has proposed a joint Israeli-Jordanian college for the border between Eilat and Aqaba, open to students from throughout the region. That may have one more inducement to the Jordanian diplomats — although the money raised at the Dec. 6 event will go to ORT projects - throughout the world. "It's a very exciting and inter- esting example of how things have changed in the region," Ms. Marion said. Rally for the Really Rich Political theater isn't dead, as was demonstrated when a group opposed to big social service bud- get cuts staged a sarcastic "Ral- ly for the Really Rich" in downtown Washington. The Coalition for Human Needs, an umbrella group that includes several Jewish organi- zations, took on a new name, for one day, to mark to occasion: the Rich Peoples' Liberation Front. Activists dressed in pearls and tuxedos and offered words of thanks to Congress for the $200- billion plus in tax cuts, which the group contends will primarily benefit the richest Americans. "There's a serious message be- hind the theater," said Sammie Moshenberg, Washington direc- tor for the National Council of Jewish Women, one of the par- ticipating groups. "While people are clamoring to balance the bud- get, Congress seems to think the only way to do this is to cut pro- grams to the poor and the mid- dle class. We want to call attention to the fact that this budget reconciliation act contains tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans. If you want to bal- ance the budget, let's at least be even-handed." ❑ Anti-Terror Bill Back On Track - Sort Of JAMES D. BESSER WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT he omnibus anti-terrorism bill, which will make it eas- ier to bar suspected terror- ists from entry into this country and harder to raise mon- ey for foreign terror groups, was hailed as a top congressional pri- ority after the Oklahoma City federal building bombing. After sailing through the Sen- ate, the bill ran into a brick wall in the House, where conservative Republicans joined liberals in criticizing provisions that would greatly expand the power of fed- eral law enforcement authorities. For the past few months, Jew- ish groups — led by the Anti- Defamation League and the Conference of Presidents of Ma- jor American Jewish Organiza- tions — have pressed for action on the bill. Rep. Bob Barr, R-Ga., one of the conservative critics, joined with Judiciary Committee chair Rep. Henry Hyde, R-Ill., in proposing compromise language intended to mollify fellow con- servatives. The amendment will delete parts of the earlier bill authoriz- ing the use of military personnel in civilian law enforcement, and 0_ It a controversial amendment T Discover our incredible selection of hard to find fragrances, exclusive cosmetics, beauty supplies and accessories. limiting the habeas corpus rights of death row inmates. It will also limit the FBI's abil- ity to gather information on do- mestic terrorist groups and delete funding for a domestic countert- errorism center. That, according to some sup- porters of the original bill, would gut the section of the legislation dealing with right-wing groups in this country. "From the very beginning, many Republicans were happy to talk about foreign terrorists, but very reluctant to talk about groups like the militias," said a Capitol Hill staffer involved in the debate. "The bill still contains some important provisions. But if it passes in this form, it will be far weaker in the area of investi- gating and fighting terrorism of the sort that caused the tragedy in Oklahoma City." Michael Lieberman, ADL's Washington counsel said: "We were disappointed that the bill was sidetracked by largely un- founded criticism. Our objective at this stage is to move this bill through the House as quickly as possible, and try to get the tough- est bill that is constitutional sound in House-Senate conference."
