Jerusalem/JTA — An estimated
150,000 people took part in a memo-
rial rally in Tel Aviv to mark the fifth
anniversary of the assassination of
Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin
by a right-wing student.
With the violence in the West Bank
and Gaza Strip hanging over the
event, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud
Barak made a plea for peace at the
rally, held in the square where Rabin -
was gunned down on Nov. 4, 1995.
Barak urged Palestinian Authority
President Yasser Arafat not to let
extremists lead Israelis and Palestinians
"on a path of pain and suffering."
U.S. President Bill Clinton called
Rabin's widow to wish her well on the
fifth anniversary of her husband's
assassination, a White House
spokesman said.
Leah Rabin, who is fighting lung
cancer, was undergoing tests in a Tel
Aviv hospital when Clinton called.
Rabin Assassin
Has No Regrets
Jerusalem/JTA — Yitzhak Rabin's
assassin said his only regret is that he
did not kill the Israeli prime minister
before the Oslo peace accords with the
Palestinians were signed.
Yigal Amir spoke to the media before
a court hearing on the state's request to
keep the right-wing nationalist, who
assassinated Rabin on Nov. 4, 1995,
separate from other jail prisoners.

Queen Visits
Wounded Jew
London/JTA — England's Queen
Elizabeth visited a Jewish man stabbed
on a bus in London in mid-October
in an incident believed to be related to
the violence in the Middle East.
An Algerian man is charged with
attempted murder in the attack on
David Myers, 20, who was stabbed
more than 20 times.
Myers is now recovering at home.
Tax Break Eyed
For Yeshiva Parents
New York/JTA — A fervently
Orthodox American group wants par-
ents of children attending yeshivas to
be able to take a federal income tax
deduction for the portion of their
tuition payments that goes for reli-
gious instruction.
Agudath Israel of America filed a
brief in a case now before a U.S.
appeals court arguing that since
Congress amended the tax code in
1993, tax deductions for "intangible
religious benefits" should apply to
such tuition payments.
Reform Jews
Gather In Moscow
Moscow/JTA — Reform Jewish lead-
ers from around the world gathered in

years of Reform activity in the former
Soviet Union.
The movement boasts a presence in
nearly 90 communities there.
Church To Make
Shoah Restitition
Berlin/JTA — The Roman Catholic
Church in Germany said it will start
making payments to survivors who
were forced to work for the church as
Nazi slave laborers.
Some 1,000 survivors of the 10,000
who were forced to work for the church
are expected to receive about $2,200
apiece under the program. Most of the
forced laborers came from Poland.
Project Targets
Blacks, Jews
New York/JTA — A new project is
trying to improve black-Jewish rela-
tions on U.S. college campuses.
The program, which is sponsored by
the Anti-Defamation League and
Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish
Campus Life, features dialogue cen-
tered around a new PBS documentary,
From Swastika to Jim Crow.

"last-minute" ballots in the U.S. elec-
tions by fax from the U.S. Embassy in
Tel Aviv or the consulate in Jerusalem.
An embassy spokesman said U.S.
citizens wishing to vote by fax had
