NEW ISRAEL EMBASSY — Designed by a firm of Jewish architects and an Israeli consultant, the new Israel chancery in Washington was dedicated in the section of Washington set aside in 1971 for embassies. The $5 million structure in Diplomatic Row is five stories high and has fully-equipped security facilities. Its architecture is reminiscent of the Old City of.

Jerusalem’s arches and domes.

Incident At Brandeis; 'Deep Throat' Dropped

WALTHAM - The students are home on winter vacation, and when they return the hullabaloo over withdrawing the filming of “Deep Throat” from the Usdan week program will mostly be forgotten. Although the porno film had been shown here in 1977 to the student body at that time, it was withdrawn by Probo officials when it became clear that there could be a confrontation with the Waltham police. Why were die police on their guard at this time when

in the past they merely yawned over the same film, which by now has become a classic in its genre? It had to do with similar action against a Harvard filming of the same movie, which when local politicians got into the act, put them on their toes. In any event, a substitute movie, which showed explicit sex and fellatio until it was boring was screened in its place, and although the students turned out en masse, the repititious sex acts soon had them yawning.

Inflation Up 20%, Salaries Up

JERUSALEM - The high inflation rate of the last three months, which if the November rise is maintained will bring the annual rate to 1909£ is bringing a 20 per cent rise for all salaries in Israel. This is the way the system protects the individual worker by adjusting his wages quarterly to price increases. Meanwhile the interest rates of banks is over 100 per

cent annually, which would cause any western Businessman to wonder how his Israeli counterpart is able to cope. But they do and that is how the vicious cycle works. He raises his prices continuously to keep abreast, and that in turn increases the inflation rate, and that in turn raises the cost of living and that in turn calls for the salary increases nationwide which have just gone up 20 per cent.

Kahane Returns, Would Oust Arabs

NEW YORK - As if the

American Jewish community doesn’t have enough public relations problems already, they are about to be multiolied as Rabbi Meir Kahane returns from Israel, following his release from jail there, to call for removal of all Arabs from Israel. He will return on Monday, and his press release states that he will enlist Jews to settle in the West Bank to pre-

vent Palestinian autonomy and call for annexation of all territories now held by Israel. Recently the Los Angeles contingent of the JDL, seeking publicity following disclosure that the KKK was operating camps to train their youngsters in the use of firearms, gained attention, giving the false impression that Jews also were training their young in secluded camps in the use of guns and other

weapons.

ADL Head Sees Terrorism Against U.S. Jews In # 81

PHILADELPHIA - That there have been more overt incidences of anti-Semi-tism in 1980 than in the past 20 years and that terrorists directed at Jewish targets will come to the United Greenberg States in 1981 were views expressed by a man who should know — Maxwell E. Greenberg, national chairman of the AntiDefamation League of B’nai

B’rith.

HE TOLD The Jewish Exponent here that “I am by nature an optimist, but I believe in keeping my powder dry. I believe Jewish institutions should be concerned with matters of security. I am afraid that I believe that terrorism — some directed at Jewish targets — will come to the United States in 1981.” The Los Angeles attorney has more than a little experience with violence. He is a member of the L.A. Police Commission. He has misgivings about the great upset in the Jewish community over the Moral Majority and believes it is misplaced. He said “Evangelical Christian missionaries are not monolithic. Most are not anti-Semitic.” He then said the position of the Jewish community should be one of watchfulness “because the leadership and philosophy of

such movements change’ ’. AS FOR OUR real enemies, he listed the Ku Klux Klan, the neo-Nazis, the PLO and the Soviet Union in its attitude toward Jews. He was here to present the ADL’s Americanism Award to John F. Connelly, local businessman. Meanwhile in London, Greville Janner, president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, urged all Jewish communities to “immediately put

in hand sensible, wellorganized precautions to be ready in any event.” He said that “they must be alert, calm and vigilant," and stated that for the first time in many years extremist groups were making the Jew, not the colored population, their first

target.

The Member of Parliament is making a tour of British Jewish communities to bring his message of vigilance to

them.

Kissinger Making Rounds, Seen Replacing Linowitz

JERUSALEM - The visit to the Middle East of Henry Kissinger, although not official, has brought the former Secretary of State full circle, and whether or not he will be the successor to Sol Linowitz is not known, but could be accurate. He is meeting not only with Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat, but also the heads of other Arab nations. MEANWHILE the Knesset is temporarily quiescent since the battle over the bill to annex the Golan Heights ended in a decision to take no action.

The return of Mayor Karim Khalaf of Ramallah was the occasion for a joyous celebration in the Arab city. He lost his legs when a bomb exploded as he started his car. Two other West Bank

mayors ended their short hunger strike at the United Nations in New York. Moshe Dayan made news when he recommended that Israel withdraw its military government from the occupied territories and allow the inhabitants to rule themselves, with Israel retaining only strategic army outposts for defense purposes. His motion lost in the Knesset but stirred up a lot of discussion and controversy. Begin said he would continue his talks with West Bank Arab leaders to see if his plan would be acceptable to them. IN OTHER NEWS an Israel border patrol crossed over the border into Lebanon to chase and destroy a five-man terrorist mission it detected about to cross over into Israel.

Lamm Doesn't Mince Words

Too Many Yeshivot Orthodox Groups

BOSTON, Mass. — Some straight speaking by Dr. Norman Lamm about attitudes in the Orthodox Community had the president of Yeshiva University practically reading a lesson in comLamm munity responsibility to his Orthodox constituency attending the convention of the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations here. In his challenge, he criticized the proliferation of small Orthodox yeshivot and other agencies, and then

challenged the view of those who would ignore the nonOrthodox Jewish community. HE SAID that it is immoral for the Orthodox community to demand support from secular Jewish federations and simultaneously deny the responsibility to participate in the wider community’s activities and concerns.” “Our attitude,” he said, “must be one of identification with the overall community...we must not restrict ourselves only to issues which concern our Orthodox community alone.” As for the surfeit of Orthodox groups, he said we have five or six rabbinical organi-

zations, at least two congregational groups, several educators’ organizations and groups for Orthodox teachers, scientists, cantors, social workers and so on.. He added that their differences are in most cases minimal. HE ALSO TOOK out after the large number of competing yeshivot. “Must every Rosh Yeshiva really have his very own yeshiva, with, executive directors, fundraisers, secretaries, undersized classes, underpaid teachers?”, he asked. “Is individual empire-building excusable if it’s done in the name of Torah?”
