Commy nitj Concerns iisetissed At CRC idling Ira 0. Kane, Chairman of Federation's Community Relations Committee, reported that a number of serious community concerns were addressed at the Feb. 5 meeting of the Community Relations Committee. He stated that the agenda included a major address by William Habig, Executive Director of Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission on some of the issues that Columbus will face within the next 5-10 years of its growth. The Community Relations Committee will be working on several of these problems in the coming months, through its Task Force system. Reports were also given by the Israel and Overseas Jewry Task Force, the Community Services Task Force, and the Interfaith Task Force. Some of the projects presently being worked on by these groups include a special reception for Fania Fenlon of "Playing For Time" fame to be held April 9, a series of meetings with members of the Black community to address problems of common concern, a forum to sensitize public school administrators to problems and concerns of the Jewish community, a series of presentations by representatives of Israel to discuss current problems and concerns there, and ongoing dialogue with clergymen within the Christian community. A major focus of tiis-' cussion was an anti-Israel article by Professor John Quigley which appeared in the Dispatch on Feb. 5. The Community Relations Committee began drafting a response to the article and is also initiating some meetings with newspaper editors to sensitize them to the resources and information that are available within the Jewish community to .be called upon in instances such as these. For further information on any of the Task Forces, or concerns of the Community Relations Committee, call Federation at 237-7686. s Ky beitftein To Receive Governor's Award Rabbi' Samuel W. Rubenstein of Agudas Achim will receive the Governor's Award for 1980 on Friday, Feb. 20 at the Hyatt-Regency Hotel. In conferring the honor on Rabbi Rubenstein, Governor Rhodes wrote: "It . gives me a great deal of pleasure to inform you that, you have been chosen to receive the Ohio Governor's Award for. 1980, a mark of special recognition. Because you havecontributed greatly to the field of religion and community service, we extend this honor, to you." Rabbi Rubenstein "This award is presented at the annual Ohio News paper Association banquet which this year will be held Friday, Feb. 20 at the Hyatt- Regency Hotel, Columbus. The Governor's Award is always presented in person to the recipient and never in absentia." "In accepting the award, the recipient is asked to reply with a short response during the program. We sincerely hope that you will accept this award, Ohio's highest token of appreciation, and make plans to be1 with us in Columbus on February 20,1981." JERUSALEM (JTA)—Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir will meet with Secretary of State Alexander Haig in Washington later this month. News of the meeting was released in Washington last week by the Israeli Ambassador, Eph- raim Evron, following - his 45-minute talk with Haig. Shamir is understood to have asked for the meeting to establish contact with the new American Administration and to discuss matters of immediate concern to Israel. - Two subjects likely to be taken up are the U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia, which Israel views with alarm, and the creation of a multi-national peacekeeping force to . patrol Sinai after Israel completes its evacuation of the peninsula in April, 1982. No date was announced for the meeting, but Evron suggested the third week of February when Shamir will be in the U.S. en route to Mexico and Central America on a previously planned trip. - 1 The ..meeting-will be the first tjetweenja' senior .member of Israel's Cabinet and a top Administration official since President Reagan took office. It raised speculation here tliat Reagan might fol- ' low it up by inviting-President Anwar Sadat and Premier Menachem Begin to Washington separately in March to explore the possibility of a tripartite summit meeting later. There has been no official word on that prospect from any of the parties. Evron conveyed, to Haig Israel's concern that the U.S. might agree to Saudi Arabia's request for extra fuel tanks and bomb racks to enhance the combat capabilities of the 60 F-15 war- planes it purchased from the U.S. The additional equipment, would enable the aircraft to attack targets in Israel. "As long as Saudi Arabia continues its policy of hostility toward Israel our feeling as it should not be given weapons which can be used against us," Evron was quoted as telling Haig. When the Carter Administration agreed to sell -the F-15s to Saudi Arabia as part of a controversial "package deal" that involved arms to Israel and Egypt as well; Israel was assured that the planes would be equipped for defensive operations only. The first are due to be delivered to the Saudis before the end of this year. With little more than a year to go before Israel com- ^J>Ie£fl5V%\withdrawal from ** Sinai, thelack of progress in putting together \k peacekeeping force is troubling Is rael. The Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty provided for a United Nations force at Sharm el-Sheikh and other strategic sites in Sinai, or, failing that, a "multinational force." Efforts by the U.S. so far to persuade other countries to participate in such a force have not been successful. A Foreign Ministry spokesman said that Israel hoped the Reagan Administration would .revive those efforts and achieve greater success. Israel has made it clear that it will not execute its final withdrawal from Sinai unless and until the matter of peace supervision is resolved to its satisfaction. Shamir said recently that Israel would like to see the U.S. itself participate in the multinational force. Torah Day Camp has begun registration for its sixth season.

Rhodes has issued so that the state employees of the Jewish faith may attend services at the Synagogue on their religious holidays. "Whereas, certain religions observe their holidays on days which have not been designated as legal holidays by state law; and, Whereas, in order for members of these religions to properly observe their religious holidays in accordance with their respective beliefs, they are, at times, unable to be present at their places of employment; and, Whereas, it has been brought to my attention that certain state employees have, at times, experienced difficulty in obtaining a leave of absence or vacation from their appointing authorities in order to pursue their religious convictions; and, Whereas, these state employees have thereby been substantially discouraged from freely exercising their religious beliefs' and are thereby treated unequally under the laws of the State of Ohio; and, Whereas, at this time in our nation's history we need to increasingly insure and encourage the free exercise of religious expression; Now, Therefore, I, James A. Rhodes, as Governor of the State of Ohio, pursuant to the authority vested in me by Article III, Section 5 of the Ohio Constitution, do hereby order that appointing authorities shall observe libera) policies concerning leaves of absence or vacations for employees whose salaries or wages are paid by the state when such leaves of absence or vacations are taken expressly for the purpose of observing a religious holiday. Further, I do hereby encourage all (CONTINUEO ON PAGE 6)
