Spring ENCORE
Sale April 24-26
Engagement
For 62 years, the Greater
Dallas Section, National
Council of Jewish Women
has been dedicated to
advancing human welfare
and the democratic way of
life through an integrated
program of education, com-
munity service and social
action. The many programs
and projects the Section
supports are funded by the
annual Encore sales and
Your Thrift Shop, a year-
round re-sale shop located at
3300 Ross Avenue.
The upcoming Spring
Encore Sale of new and
nearly new clothing, bou-
tique items, furniture and a
variety of merchandise “you
never expected to find” will
be held April 24-26 at the
Encore location, 10835
Harry Hines Blvd. (just
south of Walnut Hill Lane).
The past club year has
involved hundreds of its
volunteers as well as pro-
fessionals and lay members
of the community. Com-
munity-wide interest was
sparked when over 350
people attended a seminar
entitled “In Search of Safer
Senior Years: A Workshop
Against Crime”. Senior
citizens from all over the
city were given an op-
portunity to both voice their
fears and complaints di-
rectly to the professionals
and to learn the many ways
afforded to protect them-
selves against avoidable
crimes. Much of the elder
citizens recommendations
have been implemented and
problems solved as a result
of this forum continues in
their behalf.
The Consumer Alliance
Project, a consumer ad-
vocacy group composed of
Council members, Dallas
Legal Services staff and
concerned neighborhood
organizations,, has trained
some 35 individuals to
counsel on consumer rights
in areas ranging from how to
sue in small claims court to
filling out a contract prop-
erly. A brochure has re-
cently been published on
phase will be added to the
program this fall whereby
trained volunteers will as-
sist in counseling clients who
come to the Legal Services
office with consumer
problems.

stimulate their interest in
books and to help them solve

Egypt Demands Terrorist
Exchange for Israel Dead
BY YITZHAK SHARGIL
TEL AVIV (JTA) - Israeli
sources reported April 8
that Egyptian officials are
using Israel’s intense desire
to recover bodies of Israeli
soldiers misisng in action in
the Yom Kippur War to
force return by Israel of
Egyptian terrorists. Israel
was disclosed to have
returned to the Egyptians
92 imprisoned terrorists,
though not terrorists Qon-
victed on murder charges,
and 50 of their relatives in
exchange for Egyptian
promises to return the
bodies of Israeli war dead.
This number does not
include 20 terrorists Israel
had agreed to free when the
bodies of the Israeli soldiers
were returned to Israel.
During the negotiations
leading to the first Egyptian
Israeli disengagement
accord, the Egyptians
promised they would assist
in return of the bodies of
missing Israeli soldiers and
Maj. Gen. Mouhamed Ge-
massi, the chief Egyptian
military disengagement
negotiator, stated that
Egypt would not use the
Israeli bodies for trading
purposes.
But, the Israeli sources
reported, Egyptian behavior
soon evoked concern about
their real intentions. Ten
Israeli dead were buried by
their comrades at an Israeli
position on the Bariev Line
before the Egyptians, in
their initial thrust across the
Suez Canal, took the position.
When Isr,aeli burial society
officials reached the position
they were unable to find the
bodies. The same incident
occurred at the jetty posi-
tion, near the canal’s south-
ern outlet, where Israeli
soldiers buried five of their
comrades before the Egyp-
tians occupied the position.
The bodies could not be
found when Israeli search
parties went to the spot
after the accord was signed.
It turned out that the
Egyptians found and re-
moved the bodies for use as
a pressure at a later stage.
Since then, the Egyptians
have placed difficulties in
the way of the Israeli search
parties. By then, the Egyp-
tians prepared a list of 298
imprisoned terrorists and
demanded their release
in exchange for the bodies of
the Israeli soldiers. Israel
replied that the list included
men who had already been
released, some unknown to
Israeli authorities and some
who were sentenced for
serious criminal offenses and
whom they would not
release. Egypt then reduced
the list to 189 terrorists.

Israel then proposed to
return to Egypt the bodies
of Egyptian soldiers found in
areas held by Israel, but the
Egyptian reply was “We
don’t need them. Cover
them with sand, and that’s
that.” Egypt then agreed to
receive 92 imprisoned
terrorists and it was only
then that Egyptian Presi-
He jumped 35,000 roj^
revolutions in four houqB
and 10 minutes to surpass a
Drevious record. ~
dent Anwar Sadat announc-
ed the existence of 39 bodies
of Israeli dead. But the
return of those bodies last
weekend was made condi-
tional by Egypt on the
release of 20 more terrorists,
establishment of a Red
Crescent branch at El Arish
and other demands- Israel
accepted all the conditions.
For Israel, the bodies of i^
dead and their return JJj
Israel is more sacred than
any other conditions and the
Egyptians know of that
attitude and capitalize on it,
the Israeli sources said.
