Chester A,

So That History May Be
Written Anew

A Rosh Hashanah message by Dr. Jerome G. Tolochko,
Rabbi, Temple Israel, Kinston, N. C.

Offset printing is much less expensive than regular print-
ing. In conventional printing, type has to be set either by hand
or linotype machine, forms have to be locked, proofs taken.
In offset printing, all that is necessary is to take a photograph of
already printed material, burn the image onto a plate, and
the machine is ready to roll.

It occurs to me that it would be far less expensive, it
would take less manpower and less energy to offset some pages
of history rather than write it anew, and the contents would
apply to current days.

We are quite aware of the fact that history per se, must
always be re-written; yet, howr many incidents have repeated
themselves so many, many times, until it has almost become a
pattern?

How many history pages are replete with this statement?:
"Never before has the world faced such critical times. Never
before has there been so much chaos, so much uncertainty, so
little security. To-day, the wrorld is in an uproar; it is nation
against nation, people against people and religion against
religion."

And we can go on and on ad infinitum. It applied to the
first, and the tenth, the fifteenth and the eighteenth century
even as it applies today in the twentieth century.

People act as though they were destined to live forever.
They pick up arms at the least provocation. Murder, rape,
pillage and arson have become the standard practice for many
newly-established governments and nations.

Man is judged by the standard of money. All this, in an
age when the arts and sciences have catapulted to the highest
peak of advancement; when man's brain has created a Mark
III; an airoplane that travels faster than light, and a satelite
that can take pictures of the other side of the moon or send
back Television pictures hundreds of thousands of miles away
from the earth.

All this confusion and hatred and uncertainty is taking
place at a time when medical science enables a surgeon to take
the cornea of the eye of one person and put it into the eye of
another and make him see; when a person can live with an
artificial heart or control iron fingers which replaced his own,
by the movement of his muscles.

And yet, that same brilliant mind, that same brain which
is the image of God, will give vent to inconsistant expression
of superiority by reason of the color of his skin or the way
he wrorships God.

Be it said to our shame that in this age of technological
advancement it is still necessary for a man seeking high public
office to assure and reassure the public that he will not permit
his religion to interfere with the duties of his elected office.
And even if the public accepts this assurance from the person

Brown, Editor

of one minority religion, will they act similarly in the case of
a person of another minority religion?

This is the condition of the world on the eve of our
religious New Year 572 1, and we are part of it. We do not like
much of it, but there is the consolation that we CAN do
something about it.

It is not the premise of the individual man or woman to
bring about a change in the world or even in a community;
but it IS the premise and the duty of each individual to work
on his own improvement and thus, through his or her own
action, act in such a manner as to project their good influences
upon others.

Thus, again, the importance of the individual as empha-
sized by our religion, projects itself most forcefully.

Individual man, working to elevate himself spiritually,
morally and culturally, ascertains his own peace of mind, and,
indirectly— if not directly— becomes a reflector for good unto
others.

This is the intent and purpose of Rosh Hashanah. Self-
reflection, self-analysis, self-improvement; and thus become a
better member of society.

Multiply this by hundreds of thousands of individuals,
and perhaps soon, yet in our own days, a new history of man
will be written, unlike the stereotype of the past which can be
printed in offset.

A very happy, healthy, joyous and contented New Year to
you and yours.

B'nai B'rith Institutes Bar Mitzvah

If animated discussion, argument and controversy can be
considered a gauge of success, then B'nai B'rith's 13th (Bar
Mitzvah) Annual Institute at Wildacres, July 24th - 28th could
be deemed an outstanding achievement.

The faculty comprised Dr. Abraham Halkin, Professor of
History at the Teachers Institute of the Jewish Theological
Seminary of America; Rabbi Harry Essrig, of Temple Eman-
uel, Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Dr. Harold Weisberg, As-
sistant Professor of Philosophy at Brandeis University.

Although each lecturer had assigned topics, the principal
interest developed when they more or less digressed from their
subjects to discuss the oft-repeated charge that Jews in America
were losing their distinctive Jewishness in the process of as-
similating into the American way of life. We have heard this
subject discussed many times and have yet to learn of a practic-
al remedy. Nor was the discussion at Wildacres any exception.

To our own way of thinking we do not see the necessity
for rejection of emancipation and returning to over-emphasis
on dogma, ritual and tradition. While freely admitting that
all three have their place in Jewish life, as we see it they are
not essential to true religiosity. We can conceive of our Jewish
men and women becoming loyal Americans, contributing to
the American way of life, without necessarily sacrificing their
true Jewishness.

SOUTH CAROLINA

PAPA'S LONG WHITE
GARMENT

On Rosh Hashona my father
used to dress up to go to schul. He
put on a long, white linen garment
with flowing sleeves. That was
long, long ago . . . when I was a
small kid. All over the congrega-

ALFRED SEGAL

fcion papas were dressed that way
. . . to bow to the judgment of God
on the New Year day.

(In these later times some of
the older ones still present them-
sleves to the Almighty in this garb
of pure white . . . as if to tell
Him, "Here I am, and how pure
f look! I hope, good God, that I
look to you just as white inside.*')

One Rosh Hashona morning
when J was about (i years old and
had begun to ask a lot of questions
about things in the world, I turn-
ed to my father in schul; I was
sitting beside him there.

"Papa," I asked him, "why are
you wearing this." I meant the
white gown in which he was read-
ing the service.

"Shush, shush," he replied and
kept on reading out of the book.
He paused for another instant
to say, "I can't tell you now.
Later!"

So, later, when we were on the
way home from schul, he began:
"You were asking me why I was
wearing the long white gown. I'm
happy you asked that. It's good
for a boy to learn the fine things
of being Jewish.

"Well, you see, Alfred, it has to
do with my looking all right be-
fore God on this day which is the
first day of the year ... to look
as clean as the white I was wearing

as I stood there before Him in
the schul."

"But you have that nice, new
black suit on," I replied. "Isn't
that enough to wear?"

Papa replied: "You don't under-
stand. I wore that long white shirt
to tell God how clean I want to be
through the year. I would want
to be as white as that alb year . . .
every day. You see, on Rosh
Hashona we all try to look our
best before God who judges us
that day."

"You looked so nice, papa, in
that long white shirt," I said.
"You must have looked all right
to God."

But papa said he didn't mean
just to make a showing to God on
the outside . . . "You see," he said,
"the main thing is to be as clean
as whiteness inside of you. It
doesn't make you clean just to
look white and clean on the out-
side."

"But you sure did look swell!"
I exclaimed. "God sure must have
liked the way you looked. I like
it, too."

Papa went on to say that a
man's outward way of looking
doesn't mean a thing. He said a
king may be wearing golden
clothes on the outside, but he may
be low-down dirty like old rust
inside of him.

"Yes, Alfred, that's what Rosh
Hashona is all about ... to tell
God that we're going to keep our-
selves clean and good, inside of us
all through the coming year . . .
to be good people ... to be kind
to other people . . . never to tell
a lie . . . never to hurt anybody.
I was wearing white outside to
tell God how white I hoped to be
inside all through the year."

I asked papa why he didn't let
me wear one of those white things
so that I could be seen by God
that way . . . "Oh," he replied.
"You don't need that. You are so
young and still so clean . . . no-
thing bad in your heart or head.
Oh, I wish you could stay that
way all through your days. God
sees you to be clean through and
through, you being so young."

Thus, that day I learned the
meaning of the white garments
which were worn all over the
schul on Rosh Hashona . . . and,
of course, on~ Yom Kippur, too.

Though rabbinical theology may
put a somewhat different meaning
on those stately white gowns, I
keep on thinking that papa had
the best interpretation of the
meaning.

You may wonder whether papa's
explanation put any influence on
my young soul that Rosh Hashona
day . . . whether I've tried to live

up to the idea . . . whether I'm
really pure white inside of me as
I approach God this Rosh
Hashona.

Oh, when you come to the many
years I've attained you no longei
have so many sins to be son)' for.
At my time of life one doesn't care
much about enjoying the vices . .

Candles Zo Cight Zke Way

By The Honorable John F. Kennedy

The following is an address made by United States Senator John F.
Kennedy, Democratic nominee for President, maae before the assemblage at
the Fiftieth Anniversary Dinner of B'nai Zion, at the Hotel Commodore,
New York city.— THE EDITOR

JOHN F. KENNEDY

It is a great pleasure to be here
tonight in tribute to the fifty years
of Bnai Zion and in honor of the
special mission of the Jewish Na-
tional Fund.

It is heartening to spend an
evening where the focus is set on
works of peace and social improve-
ment — on the courageous and far-
sighted efforts your organization
has made to alleviate deep human
neetis. For the years of crisis
through which we have been pas-
ing for more than two decades
have left no more bitter heritage
than the homelessness and land-
lessness of millions. Your works
constitute one of the great social
achievements of our time, com-
bining the highest idealistic vision
with the greatest practical vigor.
And what work could be more
heartening or more enduring than
the great forest at Jerusalem. Your
children and grandchildren, when
they visit Israel, will find your
monument.

There have always been skeptics
scoffing at the possibility of
making deserts bloom and rocky
soil productive. In this regard,
our own country as a nation and
Israel's have many parallels — in
the diversity of their origins, in
their capacity to reach the unat-
tainable, in the receptivity to new
ideas and social experimentation.

In this country, through much
of the 19th century, warnings were
repeatedly proclaimed that mid-
America and its plains beyond the
moth parallel could never be
settled and made productive. One
writer, travelling from Illinois to
Oregon in 1839, spoke of the great
American Desert "burnt and arid
I . . who solemn silence is seldom
broken by the tread of any other
animal than the wolf or the starv-
ed and thirsty horse which bears
the traveller across its wastes." The

sterility of the plains, and their
implacable resistance to civilizing
influence or settlement, were
themes of major writers, such as
Francis Parkman in THE ORE
GON TRAIL and Washington
Irving in his ASTORIA, these
writers argued, a kind of nomadic
existence could be salvaged from
the mid-American land mass, from
these "bare" and "wasted" plains
with their "level monotony."

But on the great American
Plains — as decades later in the
great Palestinian Plains and val-
leys — determined settlers learned
the truth of the epigram that
"Rain Follows the Plough". By
1881 a great Western town build-
er and scientist, Charles Dana Wil-
ber, was saying: "In this miracle
of progress, the plough was the ad-
vance messenger — the unerring
prophet — the procuring cause."

These words sound deep re-
sonances in the minds and mem-
ories of those who have observed
the gradual Zionist fulfillment in
Israel. History records several such
break-throughs — great efforts in
which spiritual conviction and
human endurance have combined
to make realities out of prophecies.
The Puritans in Massachusetts,
the Mormons in Salt Lake City,
the Scotch-Irish in the Western
territories, were all imbued with
the truth of the old Jewish
thought that a people can have
only as much sky over its head as
it has land under its feet.

The Jewish National Fund,
which for forty-seven years fore-
shadowed the existence of an in-
dependent Jewish state and as-
sembled long in advance a perpet-
ual trust in land for the Jewish
people, symbolizes this magnifi-
cent achievement. Just as our own
West has sustained progress
against the impacts of serious

farm depressions, crop failures,
credit crises and droughts, so, too,
Israel has had to exist on narrow
margins of survival, on a con-
stant climate of hostility and out-
side danger. Yet it has endured
and its integrity remains unim-
paired, and this success can be in
a large measure attributed to tin
Jewish National Fund.

I cannot hope — nor pretend -
to solve tonight all of the complex
riddles of the Middle East. But
I wotdd like to suggest some per-
spectives which might help to
clarify our thinking about the area

and to indicate what line our
longer-range efforts might take.
To do this requires, first of all,
that we dispel a prevalent myth
about the Middle East.

This myth — with which you are
all too familiar — is the assertion
that it is Zionism which has been
the unsettling and fevered infec-
tion in the Middle East, the be-
lief that without Israel there
would somehow be a natural har-
mony through the Middle East
and the Arab world. Quite apart
from the values and hopes which

The Rabbi's Wife
And The Torah
Mantles

By Ethel L. Levey

In a certain village, in a cer-
tain country, there lived a young
rabbi and his wife. The Rabbi
was very learned for so young a
man, as was his wife. She had
soft, brown eyes, fair skin, and a
rather delicate air about her. Her
hair was fine and heavy, although
no one ever saw it, for she wore
a wig as all proper Rabbi's wives
did at that time, in that certain
country.

She was indeed a most proper
wife for a Rabbi. She spoke to
each and everyone in the village,
humbly yet proudly. She called
on the sick, brought gifts to the
new-born children, and listened
carefully to the rambling stories
of the old people.

All this she did quietly, in the
manner of all well taught Rabbi's
wives. On the Sabbath, she was
the first to enter the Synagogue
(after the Rabbi, of course) and
the last to leave (again, after
the Rabbi). She prayed carefully,
not too loudly nor too softly; not
too knowingly, nor yet too un-
wittingly.

You must be thinking now,
"What a jewel of a Rabbi's wife!
Everyone in the little village must
have loved her!'' But I must tell
you (it saddens me to do so) that
this was not so. Respect? Yes. That
she had. A pious, observant Rab-
bi's wife deserved respect. Hon-
or? Yes, they gave her this too,
for performing all her duties as
befitted her position. Love? That
was something else again.

At the root of the difficulty lay
this fact. She went among the vil-
lagers perfect in manner and duty,
thoroughly informed about ritual,
and with scrupulous attention to
custom. Yet, never did they feel
that she was one of them. She

stood apart — not above them, nor
below them — but — apart.

So matters stood until a terrible
calamity happened. A band of
fierce robbers fell upon the little
village one night. They ransacked
Benjamin the Butcher's shop, and
Simon the Shoeman's store, and
finding little of worth, turned up-
on that which the Jews of this
village seemed to treasure most,
the Synagogue. It was a poor vil-
lage, but the robbers, as you might
guess, didn't beheve that. They
burst into the Synagogue, knock-
ed over the benches, tore away
the curtain before the Ark, and
finally, laid their grimy hands
upon the Torah scrolls.

The Torah Mantels were as old
as the Scrolls and the Scrolls were
as old as the village, but they
had been gently handled with lov-
ing hands, so that the Mantles
still sparkled and twinkled in the
dim light of the moon. The ruf-
fians cried out with horse vocies:
"Jewels! Jewels!" and ripped the
Mantels from the Torah Scrolls.
Then, rushing out into the street,
the evil ones were gone.

In the early light of dawn, the
men, women and children of the
village (the Rabbi's wife with
them, of course) assembled in the
Synagogue and thanked God that
they had all lived to see the day,
but when they opened the Aron
Kodesh, a terrible sigh leaped in
their throats. "Oh!" they cried.
"How terrible!" they cried. "I can-
not look!" they moaned. As they
stood moaning and crying, the
young Rabbi's wife hesitantly step-
ped forward (not too far). "It is
not so terrible," she said. "We
must look!" she said, and hurried
on, "indeed, we must make new
Mantles for the Scrolls at once.
Come, we will T)egin this minute!"

She turned and left the Synagogue,
and everyone followed her. That
is, everyone except the Rabbi and
ten men who had to begin the
morning service.

Otitside the Synagogue, the Rab-
bi's wife stopped. "Menasha, Zol-
mon," she said, to the two town
carpenters. "You shall make new
frames."

"Miriam, Rebecca, Sarah, you
shall call together all the women
of our village who can weave, and
weave the cloth for the Torah
Mantles."

She turned to the older women
who were still sobbing and la-
menting. "Grandma Hannah,
Aunt Ruth, Mother Esther, you
shall plan the design lor our
Torah Mantles. Then, we shall
all work together to make the
most beautiful Torah Mantles in
the country. We will begin at
once," she said.

That is when the village began
to love its Rabbi's wife.

"Why?" you ask. Ah, surely
now, you can see that.

Do you mean that you do not
understand what the Torah Man-
tles had to do with it?

Ah, me!

Here is the way it happened.
Menasha and Zolmon were to
make the frames, you remember.
After all, you don't disturb the
Rabbi, busy with his studies, for
something like that. They went
to the Rabbi's wife. She knew.
She knew tire size and the shape,
and just how large the openings
for the handles of the Scrolls
should be. Besides, she offered
them a cup of tea and asked after
their families, mentioning their
children by name. (Between them,
they had fourteen).

Miriam, Rebecca and Sarah
were to find those women who

ETHEL L. LEVEY

would weave the cloth. When they
came toge t h e r, they simply
couldn't decide whom to ask. If
Miriam mentioned one name, Re-
becca said, "A foolish woman."
If Sarah called out a name, Mi-'
riam said, "My ten year old Bessie
weaves better than she." And so
on and so forth. They were just
about to give the whole thing up,
when Sarah said, "Let us go and
ask the Rabbi's wife. Away they;
went; it was only a walk of a lew
streets. The matter was settled
in no time. The Rabbi's wife said
"no" to this one, or "yes," to that
one, and before they knew it,
everyone who could weave was in-
cluded. Then she offered them a
piece of her special honey cake
and gave them the recipe without
being asked. She remarked on the
beauty of their daughters and the
cleverness of their sons, and tire-
women went happily on their
way.

Now Grandma Hannah, Aunt
Ruth, and Mother Esther were of
the older generation. Nothing
wrong with them. Not at all. Just
a little set in their ways; just a
little sure of their knowledge and
place in the village life. Being
chosen to design the Torah Man-
tles was only their just due they
felt. After all, who should know
better? Who had more experience?
For several days each thought
about her plan of design. When
they met in Grandma Hannah's
house, you can guess what happen-
ed. Grandma Hannah said, "I
have decided to place a saying
from the Torah across the top of
the Mantles."

Mother Esther said, "It would
be more fitting if we used only
the word Torah. with the Lions
of Judah on eifher side."

Ours Must Me M Suturing

Jaitk

By Rabbi Norman N. Shapiro

Beth El Congregation, Akron, Ohio

1!^

RABBI NORMAN N. SHAPIRO

A widely - circulated monthly
letter from a large bank in Canada
avers that "the earth has suffered
measureless destruction of animals
and plants by the uncalculating
actions of both savage and civilized
men." It was the devastation of
their surroundings that occasioned
the disappearance of salmon from
Lake Ontario, and caused the bison
to vanish from our western plains,
and made the passenger pigeon ex-
tinct in North America. "We have,"
in the words of Professor A. F.
Coventry, "for a long time been
breaking the little laws, and the
big laws are beginning to catch up
with us."

Nature, we are told, has its own
laws to maintain proper balance.
There seems to be an interplay of
forces — better still, an equilibrium
— in the natural world between
hunter and hunted, food and feed-
er, so that the resources of the
earth are never at a standstill.

These laws with their compensa-
tory actions cannot be ignored
without resultant serious conse-
quences. Nature will not tolerate
or abide ignorance of her laws as a
rationalization for violating them.
Nature's laws do not arbitrarily
command us to follow certain
courses or desist from others. Na-
ture's law merely underscores the
realities of life. If we wish to avert
or mitigate such dire consequences
as pain, disability, and even dissolu-
tion, then we must seriously heed
nature's warnings. For nature in
the final analysis is the totality of
iving — the sum total of the princi-
pal laws and conditions which af-
fect the existence of life or ani-
mate objects.

We as Jews might seriously take
a "musar hasechel," i.e., a leaf from
the laws of nature. Human beings,
as a rule, take for granted and are

indifferent to the daily phenomena
and exciting wonders in our midst.

Is it not true that our own Bible
is replete (in the Sidrot which deal
with the Tochecha, in Behuchotai
and Ki Tavoh in Leviticus 33:14-45
and Deuteronomy 28) with fore-
warnings and admonitions which
are constantly being invoked not
only against our forebears, but for
the serious consideration of poster-
ity as well? The preamble to the
Tochecha (literally, warning) in
the Bible begins on a gentle note
(Lev. 26: '-5): "If ye walk in My
statutes and keep My command-
ments and do them, then will I
give you rains in their season and
the land shall yield her produce
and the trees of the field shall
yield their fruit .... and ye shall
eat your bread until ye have enough
and dwell in your land safely."
Shortly thereafter the Bible begins
detailing the Tochecha (Lev. 26:
14-20): "But if ye will not harken
unto Me and will not do all these
commandments . . . but break My
covenant, I also will do this unto
you. I will appoint terror over you
.... and ye shall be smitten be-
fore your enemies .... and your
strength shall be spent in vain; for
your land shall not yield her pro-
duce, neither shall the trees of
the land yield their fruit."

In startling and even in terrify-
ing form, as our commentaries on
the Bible put it, God the Lawgiver
attempts to utilize man's fears and
hopes to abet His sublime princi-
ple of holiness as laid down to the
Hebrews of old: "Ye shall be holy
for I The Lord your God am
Holy.'' God singles out the bless-
ings which inevitably must follow
in the wake of devotion to His
statutes and ordinances. At the
same time, details of the dreadful

consequences of disobedience are
also graphically cited.

There exists, as we can see, a
parallel between the laws and rules
which obtain in the world of na-
ture and in the higher moral law
which deals with duties between
God-and-man and man-and-man. In
both spheres these dreadful conse-
quences may be expected for con-
travening natural law and for the
sins and transgressions which un-
dermine the principles of ethical
faith. In the natural and moral

realms we see the effects of the
terrible devastation and chaos
brought about by human perver-
sity and obtuseness.

Thus we see a general truth
emerging from the applications of
lessons we have learned in the na-
tural world and in higher religion.
History and the experience of hu-
manity subscribe to a theory of
retributive justice. The mills of the
gods grind exceedingly slowly, but
inexorably nonetheless. The doe-

Ma, Me and Milady

Today, more than 25 years later,
I can understand with a deep sense
of pathos why Ma was hell bent
on scrimping and economies I
could not fathom at the time.
The sweet nub of it was that we
were a poor but well-knit family
of Ma and Me, Ma having been
widowed several years earlier and
I "a school one" fastidiously in-
terested in sports: punchball,
which was my favorite, handball,
basketball and occasionally, when
we — the boys on the block —
could get enough players together.
Softball or baseball.

In deference to the tragedy that
took my father — it was a sudden
heart attack and bing, he went
just like that — Ma felt she still
wanted to be independent and
carry on in her own self-centered
ways: she wanted no assistance and
would ask for none, come the cold,
bitter icy winds or the scorching,
blistering rays of the opposite sea-
sons.

The echoes of her warnings for
economy 'have lingered on, and it
is not uncommon in this day and
age when the public is probably
groping for a new apex in stock
buying that I should admonish my
beloved, "Turn out the lights
when you're through! We don't
own any stock in the gas and elec-
tric company and I have no in-
tention of making them rich, if
they are not already."

Using electricity— and gas— want-
only can be a costly item in any
family budget. Whether the thou-
sands of stockholders in gas and
electric companies feel the care-
less use of the utility service will
directly benefit them or not, I
have no idea. But keeping lights
burning in excess does not strike
a happy note with me: actually,
it is a waste of good money, hard
earned most of the time, even by
those who hold shares in the
utility.

By William Ornstein

But to spend flagrantly electric
and gas without the thought of re-
ceiving a quarterly dividend check
becoming a shareholder was just
too much for my better judge-
ment, inherited, of course, from
Ma.

Ma had an expression that
went: "If a man can't save a penny
what good is he and what can he
look forward to in his old age?"
There was nothing smaller in Ma's
figuring than a penny, yet the
expression could have had the
same significance if a dollar were
mentioned instead.

Money never had any particular
importance to me. I didn't know
how hard— or how easy for some
folks— it was to earn, or what it
meant to come by in large num-
bers. All I know was it was a
means of barter and trade, that if
Ma had f 100 she was as rich, or as
poor, as a friend or neighbor with
nothing or Si, 000. Money was just
speaking in numerals, the larger
the figure the more you could
buy. But since I hadn't worked
to acquire any of it. money was a
matter of addition and subtrac-
tion, school stuff', and what you
had left either made you rich or
poor.

That's the way I felt about the
mention of money. But Ma, she
believed in it deep-seatedly, for,
she said, if one had to take care
of an exigency— that, incidentally,
is not the word she used— there
was a complete and final satisfac-
tion no friend could rival: a heart-
felt gratification that she would
not have to call on anyone to beg
favor or obligation that must be
redeemed at a later date.

She said she could not sleep
nights if she owed anyone, and
while I did not become sensitized
to the full meaning of her feelings
then I do now, because I have
developed the same negative reac-

tion to a debt, no matter how
small it might be.

And so when I keep telling
Milady and Our Brood, "Turn out
the lights, I don't own any stock
in the g. and e. company!" they
will obey my command— at least
two of them have— and then salt
it away on the shelf. I will become
aware of the renewed negligence
in due time, sometimes four or
five days later, admonish them
again, this time informing them
as politely as I know how that I
have no intention of catapulting
the g. and e. firm into the richest
in the country, or the world, for
that matter, depending on how

WILLIAM ORNSTEIN

much my dander was up and who
was the culprit at the time.

Ma's economies were not leveled
or limited to the utility barons.
Her method of buying things was
to wait until she heard of a bar-
gain from a friend or neighbor,
in dresess, suits, pants, shoes,,
shirts, ties and her own proprie-
tary accounterments.

"If I can save five dollars on a
suit for you," she would say, "this
takes care of the table for three,
four days." Or, "I have a day's

Ben Gurion Challenges The Story of
"Exodus"

By Joseph Sokol of Charleston, S. C.

JOSEPH SOKOL

No doubt many of you have read
about the controversy created when
Ben-Gurion declared during a
news conference, that the actual
exodus by the Israelites from Egypt,
is not as it is depicted in the Bible.

The Book of Exodus explains
that the Israelites were in Egypt
for four hundred thirty years; it

GROSSINGER'S
, GROSSINGER. N.Y.

further explains that six hundred
thousand made the exodus out of
Egypt. These six hundred thousand
were men of twenty years and old-
er only; the six hundred thousand
did not include women and chil-
dren. This would mean that the
total making the exodus would
have been about three million to
four million people.

Ben-Gurion states in his speech
that it would be inconceivable that
so many people, along with their
herds of sheep and cattle, could
subsist in the Sinai desert.

What is actually true, Ben-Gur-
ion states, was that only six hun-
dred families made the exodus, the
Israelites having been in Egypt for
only two generations.

These six hundred families were
of the tribe of Joseph. The bulk of
the Israelites had been concen-
trated in Canaan all this while,
and when the six hundred Israelite
families came to Canaan, they re-
joined their brethren of about four
hundred thousand. The Israelites,
now composed of the two united
groups, fought with the inhabitants
of various cities and towns to con-
quer the whole of Canaan.

For these heretic statements,
Ben-Gurion was chastised by the
religious groups in the Kneseth and
asked to resign. Ben-Gurion's reply
to this was that he was speaking as
an individual and not as the prime
minister of his State. We wonder,
however, if it is possible for a man
such as he, a famous figure and
world personality who belongs to
his country and to world Jewry,
to speak as a private citizen. Can

ANITA ENGLE

Other countries may have sing-
ing waiters, but probably only in
Israel can you find a hotel man-
ager who is a professional artist,
with time off for painting written
into his contract.

About a year ago a young artist
pend took me along to a new
gallery. 1 he Jerusalem Art Cellar,
it was called. Without any attempt
at being Bohemian or arty crafty,
it was simply delightful. Every-
thing about ir was just right, even
to the neighborhood, which was
in the old quarter of Jerusalem.

Right next to the gallery was a
tough Oriental restaurant which
provided a pleasantly vicarious at-
mosphere of the Paris underworld.
On the other side of the street was
a hole-in-the-wall affair known to
the students of the Hebrew Uni-
versity who frequented it, as "Ali
Baba's." Hardly more than a
stone's throw awav the walls of
the Old City rose up against the
sky line, grey, mysterious, and sta-
tic, like the backdrop of a med-
ieval Passion Play.

One entered the gallery through
a long, narow corridor and down
a flight of stairs. There, in a series
of rooms which had previously
served as a biscuit factory were
collected some of the most in-
teresting paintings and sculptures
I have seen in Israel. They were
ie works of Israel's younger art-
ists, among them the only Arab
painter in Israel, a recent graduate
of the Bezalel School of Arts and
Crafts.

The own:r of the gallery, Albert
Goldman, was also a surprise.
Slim, grey-eyed and handsome, he
was as polished and mundane as
the leading man in a Noel Coward
play. An a'tist himself, his land-
scapes and street scenes had the
elegante and refinement that
seemed characteristic of him.

Graduallv I learned the story of
Mr. Goldman's remarkable career.
Although only 38, he was one of

A Mother In Israel

the most experienced hoteliers in
Israel. Born in Egypt, he had
studied the trade from the age of
10 in his lather's hotel in Alex-
andria. Every summer holiday he
had been set to work in another
department. When he was old
enough to leave home, he was sent
to study hotel management in
France, Italy and Switzerland. By
the time he was 24 he was assist-

ant manager of the extravagant
night club in Cairo where ex-King
Farouk used to drink himself silly
three times a week.

In 1948 he was running the
family hotel in Alexandria when
he was stabbed by Arabs. Shortly
after the State of Israel was de-
clared the family left for Israel.
After a few months he was assist
ant manager of the King David,

Freedom, Progress
And Heroic Genius

By Rabbi Samuel Umen

RABBi SAMUEL UMEN

Our sages say that, . . . "the
more a man tells of the coming
forth from Egypt, the more is he
to be praised." What our sages
tried to impress upon the Jewish
mind is that freedom must always
be regarded as a highly prized
value. It is the basis of progress
in every area of life. Wherever
freedom is curbed, there despotism
and slavery prevail and progress
stifled.

The question arises, is progress
possible? When a child is born
there is a language which is ready
for his use. His religion is more 01
less predetermined. The form of
government under which he is to
live is already established. The
educational system which will edu-
cate him, is fully prepared. The
child is practically born into a
mold. He has little choice but to
accept the world which was fash-
ioned for him by others. Later, as
an adult, he transmits the world
he inherited to his offspring. This
being the case, what chance is
there for progress? Yet, a study of
world history reveals that in many
situations and instances, our so-
ciety is far above those of the past.
We, in our day, especially in the
western world, live under better
political, economic, social, and cul-
tural conditions. We enjoy more
liberty, more democracy, greater
opportunities for self-development
and self fulfillment. It seems that
progress is possible. How does an
individual or a group break the
mold, occasion changes, and make
improvements?

Among human beings there are
some in whose hearts burns an un-
quenchable fire for righteousness,
truth, justice, brotherhood, love
and self-sacrifice. Such men are pre-
sent in every age. Such men are
restless, impatient, discontented
with things as they are. They see
clearly how things ought to be.

and proceed regardless of conse- whose lives may be said to be syn-
quences, to promulgate patterns onymous with freedom and pro-
of life according to their own vis gress? The men of progress are
ion. heroic geniuses. The hero speaks
Who are these fearless souls when others are silent. He dares

and does what others are afraid
to dare and do. "The chief of
men," says Carlyle, "is he who
stands in the van of men; fronting

We must have my mother gave me that may be

Please try it. Rub on just a little,

to go, "1 suppose you have chosen
the designs for the Torah Mantles?
We are so lucky to have your wis-
dom and experience at a time like
this." With that, and a pleasant
"Goodbye," she left.

The three stubborn, old wom-
en stood silent. Then Hannah
said, "Esther, we can put the
Lions of Judah on either side,"
and Ruth said, "And Torah across
the top," and Esther said, "And
the Commandments on one or the
other," and thev smiled at each
other gently.

Thus the Torah Mantles were
made. For many long, lovely years
they covered the Torah Scrolls.
Slowly, the Mantles grow older, as
did the Scrolls, the village, the
people, and even the Rabbi's wife.
How the village folk respected her!
How they honored her! How they
loved her!

And all because of the Torah
Mantles.

"schar v'onesh" — is basic to Juda-
ism and the other major faiths.
Religions may differ as to the in-
terpretation of the concept of
Divine Retribution, but the funda-
mental declaration that God re-
wards the righteous and punishes
the wicked is essential to every
higher religion. For us Jews, the
belief that right is rewarded and
wrong punished is part of our
ethical faith. We believe that the
world rests on moral foundations
and is governed by a greater will
and purpose which we call "God."
We are of the belief that in the
long run a law of compensations
sets in where good must emerge
triumphant and evil and injustice
must meet their ultimate down-
fall.

The benign results which flow
from obedience and the bitter
fruits or consequences of disobedi-
ence (Tochecha) may at times
sound Utopian and suggestive of
wishful thinking. Yet we know that
the promises and warnings as em-
bodied in the Bible and reflected
in the last two thousand years of
Jewish history have been repeated-
ly borne out and confirmed. The
Holiness ideal — our ethical faith

retri-
butive justice — have been vindi-
cated and attested to time and
again by the workings of God, the
finger of history, and by human
experience.

Possibly an incorrigible optim-
ism which thrives on or — paradox-
ically enough — flourishes in ad-
versity has given the Jew through
the ages the tenacity to cling to the
ideals and tenets of his faith. If we
are inveterate optimists, it is a
buoyancy born in sorrow, anchored
in courage, and rooted in tears in
the "Emek Habocha," the valley of
tears referred to in the Lecho Dodi
of the Friday Evening or Sabbath
Eve Service.

There are many contemporarv
testaments and attestations to our
faith. To mention but a few: the
reemergence of the State of Israel
out of the ashes and ruins of World
War II — the impending trial of
Adolph Eichmann, the grotesque
image and embodiment of Nazi
bestiality and inhumanity to man
— and the continued existence and
survival of our Jewish people, al-
ready decimated and virtually anni-
hilated in the face of the most hein-
ous, diabolical crimes of the Nazis
against our people and the rest of
mankind. Who are we to question
the injustices and inequities in the
world? Surely they are multitudin-
ous in character, and more often
than not the wages of disobedience
as described in the Bible — sick-

ness and defeat, famine, wild
beasts, siege and exile, existing or
widespread evils — so often out-
weigh and seem to overwhelm the
forces for good.

True, these are the dilemmas of
our times — the problem of good
and evil — "zadik vra loh, rosho
v'tov loh" — the perennial and
persistent questions — why do the
righteous suffer and the wicked
prosper? Why does it take so long
for good to overtake evil? Why is
there such an abundance of "tzores"
- sorrow — in the world? Why does
truth, harsh as it is in its unvarnish-
ed form, seem to crawl so slowly
and evolve so painfully?

In the prevalence of so much ad-
versity, ours as Jews must be a ma-
ture, refined faith which bears wit-
ness to and unyieldingly believes
in the regular operation of God's
laws in the cosmos, i.e., in the
world about us, and in the impera-
tive character of our moral law and
ethical faith. We must at all times
be prepared to steel ourselves to
the continuing tests of faith and
challenges to our belief. We dare
not expect God to suspend the
moral law or abrogate the natural
laws at our whims and caprices, at
our importunings and demands.

We know and should realize that
laws of nature, man, or higher re-
ligion cannot be disregarded with-
out eventual disaster. True, our
impatience and lack of faith may
get the better of us at times. "Vaf al
pee sheyitmahmea" — "Even
though The Messiah should tarry";
"Even if my faith should be serious-
ly undermined on occasion" — in
spite of everything I shall continue
to believe. So sang the hapless, ill-
fated fighters for freedom in the
Warsaw Ghetto during World War
II. We should take our lessons from
those who have suffered the most.
We must convert every disastrous

event, every negative experience,
every adversity into a positive affir-
mation and a resounding "Aye!" —
into a declaration of faith whose
reverberations will be heard and
respected throughout the world.

Professor A. F. Coventry may
have been expressing a profound
Jewish truth and may have given
us a penetrating insight into a
working philosophy of faith when
he cautions us to take courage,
when evil seems to engulf us and
truth seems to be overpowered and
neutralized. The professor offers
no comfort to those who would
join forces with evil by making
compromises with the truth, by
breaking laws under the guise of
making league with the devil. "We
have for a long time been breaking
the little laws, and the big laws are
beginning to catch up with us" —
so opined the professor in Toron-
to. Did not the Pirke Aboth, the
Ethics of the Fathers, teach us the
same compelling truism two thous-

and years ago by saying, "Hevey
zaheer bemitzvoh kalah k'vecha-
murah she'en ato yodeah matan
secharan shel mitzvot," (Pirke
Aboth 2:1) — "And be careful to
adhere to minor precepts and ob-
serve the lesser commandments as
though they were major, for thou
knowest not how the rewards of
the precepts are given."?

Our Jewish tradition commands
us to accept life's suffering and
joys without losing hope and faith
in God, in our traditions, and in
our moral duties. However, when

all is said and done, and the Bible
sets before us "Tov v'rah good and
bad, "Ha chayim v'hamovet" —
life and death, we are enjoined in
the Book of Deuteronomy: "Uvo-
charto bachayim" — And thou shalt
choose life.

We wish Jews everywhere
throughout the world the choice of
life, a free life dedicated to God,
Torah, and Israel in an atmos-
phere and clime where freedom is
cherished and where one's liberties
may continuously see the light of
day and be practiced without fear.

table in pocket by buying these
shoes for you." At the same time
she always asked, "How do you
feel?" in this or that, making sure
I was definitely satisfied before a
coin or bill changed hands.

She would even go to lengths
of purchasing clothing and under-
garments out of season because of
the unusual markdowns in prices,
holding, "If a bank can put your
money away in a vault until you
need it and pay you for holding
it"— she was referring to savings
accounts— "then why can't you
store a suit or overcoat in moth-
balls for a few months? Instead
of waiting for a bank to give you
interest, this way you already have
it in your pocket."

I remember it as well as yester-
day those quarter gas meters in
our flat. We had three rooms with
the toilet at the other end of the
hall for all tenants on the floor.
This flat Ma called her Castle.
Everything in it she owned out-
right, nothing on instalments like
some of the neighbors had, and
that made her Queen of her own
domicile, a province of three box-
shaped rooms two flights up with
a view to the front where the rum-
bling of wholesale produce trucks

day and night left little for a light
sleeper to enjoy. Luckily we were
not in this category. ,

But this was Ma's Castle. A
quarter inserted in a meter which
hung on the kitchen wall syphon-
ed a measured quantity of gas
from an underground pipe. Ma
had it pretty well figured out that
a quarter should provide her with
sufficient gas for a week, and it
usually did. ^Vhen the ugly look-
ing gas tank attached to the meter
ran dry a day or two ahead of
time, pleading for another coin,
Ma stormed, "The nerve of the
thing!" to do th~is to her.

There must be a slow leak, she
insisted. If not, she pointed her
eyes at me, as if to say I'd been
lax in turning off the jet or jets
when I was through heating up
food she'd leTt behind for me
when she couldn't join in what-
ever the meal was she had pre-
pared.

Of course we knew it couldn't
leak because one or both of us
would have been asphixiated. We
coiddn't smell anything wrong. I
was innocent, Ma realized, and
she finally wound up blasting the
g. and e. company. "The crooks.

A Jewish chaplain in Hawaii shows a serviceman and his family the

us out of a nickel— or dime's worth
—of gas," depending on how she
felt and the amount of cooking
that remained for the given week.

At the same time, Ma would
shake her head, mumble in oath
or two, and somewhere along the
line I accepted it as a round-about
warning to use the gas sparingly
on future food warm-ups.

Day Olds were another saving
for the purse, slim as it was. Ala's
psychology held to the reasoning,
"The bread you buy a day later
tastes better. The flour is settled
and who needs fresh bread that
falls apart when you sink your
teeth into it." The savings in
pocket amounted to a copper a
day and these coppers added up
each week, enough to buy me a
cut-price tie, hankies or an under-
shirt or outefshirt.

Then there were bananas which,
when overripe, acquired spots and
more often than not artless brown
designs on the skin. As long as
the contents under the skin held
firm, Ma would say, "Bananas
taste sweeter when they're over-
ripe. One more day and what can
the store or pushcart peddler do
with them?"

She was right in both specifics.
The fruit had a deliriously sweet-
flavor, a treat for anyone who
liked bananas: and T loved banan-
as. Conveniently, we saved a lot of
money over the years as Ma went
from store to store, pushcart to
pushcart, foraging lor the speckl-
ed product of Cuba that would be
headed for the garbage can if not

by Ma counted her savings at the
end of the week. She felt enor-
mously happy and proud because
she had succeeded in "making ends
meet," as she so aptly expressed
it, without seeking succor from a
relief agency.

In our neighborhood were quite
a few families on relief and they
thought nothing of it. If they
did, Ma couldn't understand why
they were so free in discussing how
much this family got each week
and the amount that son, or some
other neighbor, received. Individ-
ual circumstances proscribed the
limitations, such as ailing hus-
band, no husband, and the num-
ber of children who had to be fed.
and clothed, and housed under a
roof instead of being "put out"
on the street.

Ma loathed the mere mention
of "relief agency," a city project
which periodically sent investigat-
ors around to snoop and ask a lot
of embarrassing questions. "Who
wants them knocking on my door?
Who needs them? As long as I
have these two good hands"— and
she'd turn palms up— "and two
legs that don't ^bother me so I can
stand on my feet, I will never call
on anyone for help."

I had heard her tell the story
to one or two of the impecunious
cases on the block: she never
mentioned it to me, never wanted
me to know how a "relief agency"
existed, come what may.

Her pride was her fortune. She
could earn a living for both of
us as long as I watched the dollar,
she insisted, demanding my lull
cooperation by eliminating un-
necessary expenses and waste, not
only for now but in weaving the
skein for the future, when I
would be on my own with a family
to guide and provide for in my
own material bailiwick.

Athletics, however, were the
bane of Ma's economic structure.

Being athletically inclined, I
would get regular warnings about

wearing out my shoes. Playing
ball took its toll on my heels and
soles, and while I didn't care
whether I wore brogans with holes
in them or not, Ma would call
me to account when she noticed
the need for repairs or replace-
ments.

"Can't you be more carelul?
After all, I don't own a shoe
factory. I wouldn't mind owning
a rubber heel plant like O'Sulli-
van's and then you could wear
your heels away like nobody's
business. As for your soles, if I
couldn't own a factory I'd like
to at least work in one where I
can get the leather on an em-
ploye's discount."

Of course Ma was daydreaming.
She was trying to make me feel
good: she wanted me to have
as much fun as I could while I
was young and at the same time
she was trying to ease the pain of
paying out her savings to have
my shoes fixed so often.

On numerous occasions in the
past few years I have recalled
these incidents and sayings. When
I see my boys down-at-the-heel in
their attire from athletics I say
to myself this is a happy sign, a
healthy, robust pair rather than
think of possible bankruptcy star-
ing me in the face if and when the
pace became accelerated.

where ever they can find a game
to participate in and prove their
talent. And I am enormously

opportunity of reminding her to

This has been going on for

I should call it suggestion under
the circumstances — to the brood.

as the man in the moon; they
just don't care one way or another.

One day I heard our oldest off-
shoot say to Milady, "Aw Mom,
why dontcha stop heckling me
about the lights? Whatsit mean,
another five or dime a day? So
what? We're not going to get
poor. Pop can afford it, so willya
please do me a favor and please
l-i) off reminding me about the
watts and ohms! If I remember
I'll douse 'em when I leave the
room, and if I forget nobody's
gonna jump off the George Wash-
ington bridge or out of a 40-story
window."

Milady thought it over. The
oldest offspring of ours was right,
she decided. As for our younger
lad, he knew from nothing. I men-
tioned the situation to him once,
and that was it. The tousle-hair-
ed chubby had an alert mind,
sharp on the answers. His im-
mediate reaction was, "Eh," coupl-
ed with a disdainful shrug of the
shoulder, the combination spell-
ing failure on my part to reach
the ground floor of his interior.
He just couldn't be bothered with
such trivialities and I knew it was
hopeless to again broach such an
insignificant economic feat as:
"Lights out when they're not be-
ing used!"

Rather than bring up the econ-
omy program that had been par-
tially successful up to now, Milady
would turn off the lights herself,
checking the boys' room each
time they left it. It was so much
easier, so little effort and she
wouldn't have to argue about sav-
ing a nickel or dime a day.

Accidentally, some time later,
I had beat her to the boys' room
with the lights on, vacant but
piling up an electric bill like mad.

"Look," I said, raising my voice
unsuspectingly, "I don't want the
lights on in that room of theirs
when they're not in it. Can't they
understand I'm not saying this to
hear myseTf talk. Why can't they
twitch the switch when they quit
the room? It's so easy and really
it doesn't take any brains to ma-
neuver the first finger into ac-
tion."

This was not the day for such
kind of talk I found out soon
enough.

Milady had been under the
weather and here I was jabbing

he allow himself the luxury of ex-
pressing his own opinions as would
any other man?

It would seem that he cannot,
for he must respect the feelings of
most of his people, who, after three
thousand years, believe wholeheart-
edly in the story of the exodus from
Egypt as it is written in the Bible;
who, after three thousand years
still base most of their holidays and
prayers upon the Book of Exodus.

Furthermore, Ben-Gurion has
no proof upon which to base his
findings. He is not the first to
articulate these conclusions which
oppose the Bible. German Bible
critics did this long before, tearing
apart the story of the exodus and
claiming that the entire story was
a fallacy.

Ben-Girrion's declaration to the
reporters encompassed about thirty

premises. Since these are too num-
erous upon which to elaborate, we
will mention but a few.

Assuming, says Ben-Gurion, that
the Israelites while in the Desert
ate manna as described in the
Bible, what then did their herds
eat?

Another example given by the
prime minister is Moses's striking
of a rock with his staff to obtain
water for his people. This, he says,
is impossible, for there could sure-
ly not be enough water for several
million people.

Still another example cited by
Ben-Gurion is the fact that if only
seventy people came to Egypt with
Jacob, how could they multiply to
several million in the comparative-
ly short span of two hundred years?
(Two hundred years according to
Rashi.) And, even if there were
several million Israelites in Egypt,
which was a very fertile and rich
land, why did they not assume con-
trol of the government rather than
leave such a country for the poor
land of Canaan?

According to Ben-Gurion, how-
ever, only one family, the family of

Joseph, migrated to Egypt, and
only six hundred families made the
exodus from Egypt. He arrives at
this conclusion from mention in
the Book of Exodus of the six hun-
dred "Aluphim" who left Egypt.
In Hebrew, Alef can mean a thous-
and, or it can mean a family or the
head of a family. Therefore, as
Ben-Gurion sees it, only six hun-
dred families along with the heads
of the families left Egypt.

These are but a few brief ex-
cerpts from Ben-Gurion's contro-

versial speech. Again, Ben-Gurion
is not the first to conjure up these
thoughts nor will he be the last.
Long ago our own Chazal (sages,
blessed be their memory) provoked
similar questions among themselves
but answered them quite adequate-

My closing message, dear read-
ers, is to reassure you that we Jews
will celebrate Pesach, read the
Hagadah, and retell the story of
Exodus for many centuries to come,
regardless of what Ben-Gurion says.

But why the art gallery? It ap-
peared that although Mr. Gold-
man hacTbeen in the hotel trade
since he was 10, his painting
"career" had begun even earlier
- from the age of 8. It had always
been his intention to make art
his business. And, as soon as the
opportunity seemed ripe to him,
this is just what he did. With
what success or personal satisfac-
tion I don't know, for Mr. Gold-
man wasn't the type of person who
went around with his heart on
his sleeve.

Something prevented me from
calling on Mr. Goldman for three
mouths or so. Then, a short time
ago, I ran into him on the street.
"How's the gallerv?" I asked. "I've
sold it," he said. He looked as
poised and imperturbable as ever.
"I'm back in the hotel business."
He was manager of Ramat Aviv,
the charming cottage-style hotel
set in flowering gardens on the
outskirts of Tel Aviv.

"But what about your paint-
ing?"

"Oh, that's alright," he replied.
"The directors have insisted thail
I take one day off a week to paint.
It's in my contract."

The Civil Liberties Union

By Harry Simonhof f

That canaille such as John
Rasper could select anti-Semitism
as a career should cause little
surprise. After all it is easier than
hauling trash to the city dump on
a truck. Hasn't Parson Gerald
L. R. Smith been living in clover
since the death tof Huey Long,
from which he learned how to
exploit hatred? The holy dema-
gogue discovered that Judeopho-
bia could bring in more dollars
than pounding a pulpit some
where in the sticks out in the
Bible belt.

Then came George Lincoln
Rockwell who had been reading
Mein Rampf. When mustered out
of the Marines he had to find a
job. But why go to work? Hitler,
who had only been a corporal,
could start with seven hoodlums
and become dictator of Gorman).
He, Rockwell, had been a lieu-
tenant and should go further than
a house painter out of work. The
procedure is simple enough. Form
an American Nazi party out of
several rowdies, stand on street
corners and spew forth the venom
about the Jews that Hitler has in
his book.

And now the public has been
treated to the astonishing spectacle
of a public spirited organization
committed to safeguard civil rights
coming to the assistance of a
Rasper and Rockwell when such
repulsive delinquents are charg-
ed with breaking the law.

Liberals generally have been
under a kind of taboo about criti-
cising the A.C.L.U. since its incep-
tion in the 1920's. Hasn't its de-
fense of communities or left-wine-
ers aroused the ire of reactionary
elements such as followers of the
late Joseph McCarthy? Then this

sacred cow cV'in do no wrong
since it has set out to secure free-
dom of speech, regardless who it
hurts or what damage poisonous
ranting might cause.

This unqualified worship of free
speech might account for the
A.C.L.U. staggering into a blind
alley. Idolatry is an evil not be-
cause it worships an image but
because it fails to distinguish be-
tween a symbol and the living
reality. Free speech can also be-
come an idol if worshipped with-
out discrimination or evaluation.
During the excesses of the French
Revolution, Madame Roland, a
revolutionary and intellectual, was
led to her execution. Standing be-
fore the guillotine she made a
deathless statement, "O Liberty,
what crimes are committed in thy
name!"

It would seem that the A.C.L.U.
has fallen under the spell of un-
trammeled free speech. Apparent-
ly these idealists think little of

Candles To Light The Way

(Continued From Page 9)

the State of Israel enshrines —
and the past injuries which it re-
deems — it twists reality to sug-
gest that it is the democratic
tendency of Israel which has in-
jected discord and dissension into
the Near East. Even by the cold-
est calculations, the removal of Is-
rael would not alter the basic
crisis in the area. For, if there is
any lesson which the melancholy
events of the last two years, and
more have taught us, it is that,
though Arab states are generally
united in opposition to Israel, their
political unities do not rise above
this negative position. The basic
rivalries within the Arab world,
the quarrels over boundaries, the
tensions involved in lifting their
economies from stagnation, the
cross-pressures of nationalism— all
of these factors would still be
there, even if there were no Is-
rael.

The Middle East illustrates the
twin heritage of modern national-
ism. In one of its aspects it re-
flects a positive search for political
freedom and self-development; in
another, it is the residue of dis-
integration and the destruction of
old moorings. The Arab states,
though some have had significant-
ly varying lines of development,
have all too often used Israel as a
scapegoat and anti-Zionism as a
policy to divert attention away
from the hard tasks of national
and regional development, and
from special area problems.

One of these problems, that of
the Arab refugees, which has lain
like a naked sword between Israel
and the Arab states, is a matter
on which the books cannot be
closed and which must be further
resolved through negotiation, re-

settlement, and outside interna-
tional assistance. But to recognize
the problem is quite different
from saying that the problem is
insoluble short of the destruction
of Israel, or only by the unilateral
repudiation of the 1949 borders,
or must be solved by Israel alone.
Israel today stands as an example
for all of the Middle East, in
spotlighting how economic mod-
ernization may be spurred and ac-
celerated against high odds, great
physical barriers, and constantly
growing population, as well as
against all Communist blandish-
ments. The growing influence of
the Soviet Union in the Middle
East and the further diminution
of direct Western influence in that
area as a whole, we shall in all
likelihood have to face as realities.
And it is sheer delusion to under-
estimate the cutting force of Arab
nationalism or hope to create re-
gimes or pocket Western kingdoms
in that area. This would only in-
tensify anti-Western feeling in the
Middle East and imperil Western
relations with all uncommitted
states.

Israel, on the other hand, em-
bodying all the characteristics of
a Western democracy and having
long passed the threshold of eco-
nomic development, shares with
the West a tradition of civil liber-
ties, of cultural freedom, of par-
liamentary democracy, of social
mobility. It has been almost un-
touched by Soviet penetration.
Some of the leadership groups in
the Arab states also draw inspira-
tion and training from Western
sources. But too often in these na-
tions the leadership class is small,
its popular roots tenuous, its prob-
lems staggering. In too many of

the countries of the Middle East
the Soviet model holds special at-
traction, the more so since the
United States and its Western al-
lies have not been able to develop
more than tentative and often
o n 1 y expedient policies which
hardly come to grips with the root
causes of political disintegration
and economic backwardness. To
countries with relatively primitive
or top-heavy economies and low
industrial capacity, the Russian
and even the Chinese passage to
modernity in a generation's time
inspires confidence and imitation
— even as does Egypt's move in
less than ten years from a seem-
ingly subjugated state to at least
a stratgeic power. We now know
that Soviet attraction is not
grounded on threat or bluster
alone, and that there are tensions
and critical restlessness which
woidd exist even if there were not
a Communist threat. Communism
presents to many in that area the
glamor of novelty, the breaking
of fresh ground, of seeming; to

offer a discipline, coherent and
irresistible answer to the over-
whelming problems of economic
management and progress.

In this light a simple military
response is not adecpiate. For,
apart from bequeathing to the
United States latent anti-colonial
resentments, military pacts and
arms shipments are themselves
new divisive forces in an area shot
through with national rivalries,
without historic frontiers, with-
out, for the most part, skilled
classes and political administrat-
ors who can pilot the new state
through the treacherous tides run-
ning through the Middle East.

Military pacts provide no long-
term solutions. On the contrary,
they tend dangerously to polarize
the Middle East, to attach us to
specific regimes, or isolate us very
often from the significant nation-
alist movements. Eittle is ac-
complished by forcing the uncom-
mitted nations to choose rigidly
between alliance with the West or

submission to international Com-
munism. Indeed, it is to our self-
interest not to lorce such a choice
in many places, especially it it di-
verts nations from absorbing their
energies in programs of real eco-
nomic improvement and take-off.
In the Middle East we are moving
perilously close to an arms race,
which, in the long run, will be of
benefit to no one. No other area
stands more in need of a real dis-
armament effort. The real mutual
advantages for gradual demilitari-
zation rather than buildup are
unequaled. Although we have used
the area for a pilot test of the
United Nations Emergency Force;
and this might well be supple-
mented by a similiar international
device to regulate arms traffic.

The contours of the outstanding
economic and political issues in
the Middle East lend themselves
uniquely also to a regional ap-
proach. The project-by-project,
country-by-country pattern of as-
sistance is particularly illadapted
in this area. The great river bas-
ins of the Middle East are inter-
national — the Jordan, the Nile,
the Tigris and the Euphrates. And
there are other nations in the West
besides the United States which
can make important contributions
in economic and technical assist-
ance. There has been no lack of
pointers toward what a regional
policy might include — a multi-
lateral regional development fund
tor both economic improvement
and refugee resettlement, the Jor
dan River multi-purpose scheme,
a food-pool making imaginative
use of our agricultural surpluses,
and, as a coordinating agency, a
Middle East Development Author-
ity to pool capital and technical
aid in that area. This would en-
courage and provide incentive for
realistic and constructive plans
and projects, encourage a higher

and more diversified level of pri-
vate investment, and enable Arab
leaders to participate in economic
planning and administration.

Unfortunately, all these and
other plans have so far lacked the
active political leadership which
can break the paralysis of purpose.
Only external Soviet aggression,
which is only one danger to the
Middle East, has been the subject
of high level policy-planning. No
greater opportunity exists for the
United States than to take the lead
in such an effort which could
diminish the internal bickering
in that tense and troubled area,
and bend new energies to new,
more promising and more con-
structive ventures.

Needless to say, such proposals
and programs should not be used
as veiled techniques for placing
new economic sanctions and pres-
sures on Israel. Nor should the)
detract from our support of Is-
rael's immediate needs. There
is no reason why the United States
should not conclude at once the
$75,000,000 loan promised through
the Export-Import Bank, and
make it clear that we will not
sanction any barrier to free ship-
ping on the Gulf of Aqaba, which
is an international waterway. The
choice is not between either the
Arab states or Israel. Ways must
be found of supporting the legiti-
mate aspirations of each. The
United States, whose President
was first to recognize the new
State of Israel, need have no apolo-
gies — indeed should pride itself
— for the action it took. But
neither should we foreclose any
effort which promises a regenera-
tion of a much wider segment of
the Middle East.

The Jewish State found its ful-
fillment during a time when it

Plundered, profaned and disin-
herited."

But it is yet possible that history
will record this event as only the
prelude to the betterment and ther-
apy — not merely of a strip of
land — but of a broad expanse
of almost continental dimensions.
Whether such a challenge will be
seized, cannot be determined by
the United States alone, but as we
observe tonight the inspiring ex-
perience of Israel, we know that
we must make the effort — and
that we can once again demon-
strate, that "Rain Follows the
Plough".

In his book "One Man's
America", Allistair Cook tells the
story which well illustrates our
point. On the 19th of May, 1780.
as he describes it, in Hartford,
Connecticut, the skies at noon
turned from blue to gray and by
mid-afternoon had blackened so
densely that, in that religious age,
men fell on their knees and beg-
ged a final blessing before the
end came. The Connecticut House

of Representatives was in session.
And as some men fell down in the
darkened chamber and others
clamored for an immediate ad-
journment, the Speaker of the
House, one Colonel Davenport,
came to his feet, and silenced the
din with these words: "The Day of
Judgment is either approaching or
it is not. If it is not, there is no
cause for adjournment. If it is,
I choose to be found doinsr my
duty. I wish, therefore, that can-
dles may be brought."

Members of Bnai Zion! You
who are here gathered tonight
deserve thanks— for you have in
truth brought candles to illumi-
nate your Peoples' way.

tary of Agriculture, arrived in

Mr. Benson initiated his talks by

The American Jewish TIMES-OUTLOOK

The Zionist Movement In
Search of An Image

By Dr. Max Nussbaum

The Zionist Movement has re-
cently been under attack from two
opposite quarters: The assimila-
tionist forces in the United States,
on the one hand, and members
ol the Israeli Government — par-
ticularly the Prime Minister and
Foreign Minister — on the other.
As far as the American Council
for Judaism and their sympathiz-
ers are concerned, it is, by now,
completely superfluous to rehash
old arguments or even to dignify
them with a reply.

The attacks on the Zionist
Movement by the Prime Minister
of Israel, however, are an entirely
different matter and have to be
given serious consideration. At
the Mapai Central Committee
meeting early in June Mr. Ben-
Gurion said that Jews all over the
world agreed that other Jews may
lincl a haven in Israel and that in
this respect "There was no dif-
ference between Zionists and non-
Zionists." He then went on to ask
"Will the Zionist Movement in
America organize Aliyah which is
Israel's most pressing need, or
Hebrew education, which is what
Jewry elsewhere needs most?" And
apparently concluding that the
Zionist Movement will do neither,
he climaxed his remarks by saying
that the Zionist Movement "cre-
ates a gulf between the younger
generation of Israel and the Jew-
ish people — for how can we ex-

Golda Meir, Israel's Minister for
Foreign Affairs, is shown on her
arrival at Idlewild Airport for a
three-week coast-to-coast tour of
major cities in the United States
and Canada in behalf of the State
of Israel Bond drive.

plain to the young generation
that there are two sorts of Jews,
Zionists and others?" Thus Mr.
Ben-Gurion's latest utterance on
the future of Zionism.

There is, it seems to me, a basic
fallacy in Mr. Ben-Gurion's logic:
In spite of appeals and much
oratory, of public declarations and
even denunciations, there will be
no mass immigration to Israel
from the American Jewish com-
munity. American Jews, and that
goes for Zionists also, look upon
themselves as living in Chutz La'-
Aretz, (a historic term used in
Talmudic Age to denote free and
creative communities outside Pal-
estine) and do not feel that their
existence in the United States is
characterized by Gal u t. The
American Jewish community feels
solidly at home in these United
States, and considers its members
first class citizens functioning
normally in the fabric of America.
The sooner this realistic view is
accepted by some Israeli leaders,
the better for Israel and the better
for us.

To make Aliyah the only cri-
terion of a Zionist in the United
States is, therefore, not only un-
realistic, but simply naive. In spite
of this, however, the Zionist Move-
ment in the free world is a historic
necessity not only for the lands of
the Diaspora, but specifically lor
Israel itself. For what the Prime
Minister does not apparently tin-

derstand is the fact that every
great cause in history needs a dedi-
cated army in order to translate its
vision into reality.

It is true that, with minor ex-
ceptions, the whole ol American
Jewry is sympathetic and friendly
toward Israel, but there is a vast
difference between sympathy and
commitment — and American Jew-
ry, with all its friendship, is not
committed to Israel, while the
Zionist Movement is an organiza-
tion of committment. There is a
great difference between organiza-
tions which were founded lor an
entirely different purpose and
which have now added an Israeli
project to the many projects they
had undertaken before - and a
Movement which is wholly, de-
votedly ami zealously committed
to the conception ol Jewish
peoplehood and the centrality of
the State of Israel.

This psychological difference
has emerged clearly again and
again and especially during the
critical period of the Sinai Cam-
paign when many of the so-called
friends manifested a negatvie at-
titude towards Israel's move,
whereas Zionists and Zionists
■done stood firm and proved

to be Israel's only reliable allies.
The young Jewish State will,
therefore, be in need of a strong
and influential Zionist Movement
for decades to come, because Is-
rael is a great historic cause and
needs not only friends, but allies,
not only sympathy, but commit-
ment. The Zionist Movement is
the only organization in the free
world that can lullill this require-
ment.

When political thinking will
reach the state of greater maturi-
ty, even some Israeli leaders will
come to the conclusion that the
Zionist Movement is not a gulf,
but a veritable bridge between
the Jewish State and the Jewish
people.

Having stated this position, one
must, in all fairness, look at the
problem from an Israeli view-
point. The Zionist Movement only
warrants its existence if it can,
first, continue to serve the State
of Israel in the areas of its needs,
and, secondly, unify the dispersed
Jewish communities under the
concept of peoplehood through a
program ol intensified Jewish
Education and deepened cultural
Hebraization.

Welcoming the New Year, the congregation of GIs and their dependents
in Korea take part in the traditional observance of Rosh Hashanah. For Jew-
ish men and women with the U. S. Armed Services in every corner of the
world, the Jewish chaplain recruited, endorsed and served by the National
Jewish Welfare Board (JWB) provides religious activities throughout the
year.

The American Jewish TIMES-OUTLOOK

Seen from this angle, Aliyah —
not in its old European connota-
tion of mass immigration, but in
American terms of selectivity —
will have to be given our most
serious consideration. In Ameri-
can terms, Afiyah would connote
middle-class settlement, lor which
a growing interest can be observed,
as well as the sending of experts
in various fields of Israel's econ-
omy and technology. This in ad-
dition to the exchange program
of Israeli High Schools or at the
H e b r e w University — projects
which we have already successful-
ly undertaken and which will have
to be greatly enlarged.

The time has come for the Zion-
ist Movement to manifest the
courage of its own convictions and
project this type of American
Aliyah, directing itself to the
three categories of the middle
class, the expert, and the student.
And though even such a program
will never lead to mass immigra-
tion, it is a constructive under-
taking and will serve the basic
needs of the State. It may, also
be stated categorically that no
other organization, here or abroad,
will compete with us in this field
of endeavor . . . This, then, would
be a unique contribution of the

Zionist Movement and be a real
challenge to Jewish communities,
not only in the United States, but
in the whole ol the .free world.
The same holds true for spread-
ing the Hebrew language on the
youth and adult level via the mass
media of radio and television, as
well as via schools and adult edu-
cation projects. Again, it is an
undertaking which we have hardly
begun, which is a difficult task,
and no other organization will
rush into battle with us for the
honor of committing itself un-
reservedly to 1 he Hebraization oi
oui Jewish communities.

It is within this frame of ref-
erence that one has to discuss the
important role ol the Zionist Or-
ganization of America in the
United States. For without a
strengthened and revitalized ZOA,
there will never be a strong and
vital Zionist Movement in this
country.

The critical situation in which
the Zionist Organization finds it-
sell is, in my opinion, the effect
of four causes: Loss of prestige,
lack ol program, reduction in
membership, and precariousness
in finances — and in this order.
Because I am convinced that an

organization that has prestige and
program will almost automatical-
ly also enjoy a large membership
and enough income to cover its
operations. We have, therefore,
to undertake several important
steps in order to confront the or-
ganization with the realities of
the post-State era. One cannot go
about our Zionist Business in the
normal routine of functions as
if it were a period prior to 1948.
The situation has changed radical-
ly, and it is about time that-with
courage, vision and imagination —
we live up to the historic challenge
of our generation. What we des-
perately need in the ZOA today is
a "New Deal" for the Zionist Or-
ganization.

In order to regain prestige, the
first step to be taken is the re-
unification ol the Zionist forces
in the United States. We have lost
too many important names in
American Jewish leadership. Some
of them broke away from us and
joined the "American Jewish
League for Israel." Others became
active in U.J. A. and Bonds, but
severed all relations with the Zion-
ist Organization. The time has
come to reopen serious negotia-
tions with these groups and in-
dividuals in order to enable them

to return to the fold of the ZOA.

The disagreements between us
have become meaningless, and
there is no problem between us
that cannot be solved in a spirit
of amity. We have done very little
practical work as a result of the so-
called "Identification Resolution",
and the other so-called "Indepen-
dent" side Bas not entirely closed
its lines of communication with
certain corresponding groups in
Israel and the Diaspora.

I am, therefore firmly convinced
that a formula can be evolved
which would satisfy us as well as
the members of the "League".
Once this is done, the recreation
of a single Confederation of Gen-
eral Zionists would logically fol-
low in its wake. Such a move
would not only strengthen the
leadership of the ZOA, but would
enhance the prestige of our or-
ganization by the tremendous im-
pact which such a reunion and
such a consolidation would have
upon the American Jewish com-
munity.

This reunified Zionist Organiza-
tion of America would, then, as
the second step, embark upon
a program which serves the needs

First thing you need of course
is a ticket, which you can get for
the proper amount of currency
or travel now, pay when you catch
me.

Then you will need a passport
and get a smallpox vaccination
shot. No shots out of a bottle!

And that's all. You're ready.
II you are an American citizen,
there is no need to apply for a
visa, since it will be granted with-
out asking upon your entry into
Israel.

What should you take along?

Take your wife, take along your
children, Aunt Emma, they will
all enjoy it, you may be sure.

And take along some money.
With that, you can get pretty near
anything you want in Israel. There
are shops as nice as those on
Broadway, the only difference is
that they sell in Hebrew, but
you'll get used to that. In fact,
you will enjoy it. For instance,
let us say you wish to buy under-
wear. In Hebrew, its tah-to-nim.
Isn't it more fun that way? You
can almost sing it.

Tah-to-nim
Tah-to-nim

Also take along your Israel
Bonds. You can convert them into
Israel pounds and use it to pay
lor your hotel and other expenses.

It would be a good thing to pre-
pare yourself with a short course
in the Hebrew langauge before
raking off. It can be very brief.
For instance, you will have to go
to the bank to change your
American money into Israeli
money, so you should know the
Hebrew word for bank.

It is bank. Only in Hebrew you
put Ha meaning the before it.

just stop anyone in Israel and
ask where is ha-bank and they will
understand and in fact compli-
ment you on your perfect Hebrew.

Also you will surely want to go
to the theatre. It's very reasonable.
The best orchestra seat will only
cost you about Si. 50 in American
money. The Hebrew theatre is
teatron. That's easy, isn't it? You
see how much English resembles
Hebrew? But always stick in a ha.
Just like you're laughing Ha-ha!

There are a couple of other
Hebrew words that you will need.
There is bevakasha, my favorite-
it sounds so delicious like coca
cola, which means "please" and
there is Toda Rabba, which has
nothing to do with rabbis. It
means many thanks.

With those four words, yon
know enough to get by, unless you
wish to take a course at the He-
brew University, where a know-
ledge of English would be help-
ful.

Now about hotels. The Israel
Government Tourist office divides
them into three categories, A, B.
and G. If you're going to Israel lor
a rest and a change, the A hotels
will give you the rest, but they
lake most of the change. Theii
charge will be about $20.00 a clay.
You will have an air conditioned
room, an indoor swimming pool
and you will fee! very important.
But you can get hotels all the way
down to $2.50 per day.

The hotel that the patriarch
Vbraham used to operate free of
charge at Beersheba is closed
down. However, if you wish, you
can sleep out in the open, under-
neath the stars, like the Bible says
Jacob did. The climate is pleasant

Scientist Turns Detective

By Police Superintendent, Meyer A. Kaplan

It may seem unlikely, perhaps
even incongrurous, that the Weiz-
mann Institute of Science, with its
almost cloistered atmosphere, con-
ducts investigations, not only in-
to the laws of nature, but into the
nature of crimes — among them,
homicide, arson, rape and burg-
lary.

For several years now, the In-
stitute has quietly rendered im-
measurable assistance to the police
and courts of Israel for whom it
has unravelled the most complex
and unorthodox problems of
physical evidence.

Twentieth century crime de-
tection relies largely on the ap-
paratus and special skills of the
modern world. Clearly, the Israel
Police Force could not afford the
scientific personnel or equipment
which the Weizmann Institute has
frequently placed at its disposal.
A telling example of this coopera-
tion is in the sphere of emission
spectrography — which detects and
identifies minute traces of various
materials, such as glass fragments,
paint smears and so forth. Here,
not only did the Institute carry
out hundreds of essential exami-
nations for us, but an Institute
scientist, Dr. Joseph Jaffe, found
us a used spectrograph, put it in
good order, installed it and train-
ed some of our men in its use.

The celebrated instance of a po>
lice spectographic examination
conducted at the Weizmann In-
stitute was the case of the price-
less antiques stolen from the Be-
zalel Museum in Jerusalem. The
golden ceremonial objects had
been melted down in order to pre-
vent identification, and to make
easier their disposal. We suspect-
ed that this was done at an up-
holsterer's shop wliere they had
first been filed down. An iron file
was eventually discovered on the
premises, and sent on to Dr. Jaffe
for examination in the Institute's
large Littrow Spectrograph. The
spectral lines of gold were clearly
discernible on the spectrograph,
giving us circumstantial proof of
our suspicions.

Dr. Jaffe has worked with equal
success on the side of the defense.
Contrary, perhaps, to rumor, the
Police Force is eager for this kind
of expert defense testimony which
forces it, more and more, into
rigorous examination procedures
and furthers the promotion of
justice.

But the spectrographs exami-
nations are only one aspect of
help given by the Institute. In-
stitute scientists have served us
well also in an unofficial consul-
tative capacity particularly in in-
tricate problems of physics, to
name just one other field. A man's
body was once found at some dis-
tance from a building. The patho-
logical examination revealed that
it had been smashed by a great
force which might be explained
either by a traffic accident, or by
a fall from a building. The traf-
fic accident theory was ruled out
because of the location. It seemed
impossible that, at this particular
spot, a car could work up suf-
ficient speed to cause physical
damage, or that the body had fal-
len from the nearest building be-
cause the distance between them
was too large.

Dr. Jaffey was called in. He
figured out that if the deceased
had run fast enough - taking a
running jump from the nearest
building — we could account for
the state of his body. It was later
ascertained that the dead man had
been an athlete of sorts, and that
the running speed estimated by
Dr. Jaffe had been well within his
capacity. Thus, a theory of suicide,
strongly suggested by motivational
factors, was provecl by scientific
calculations which could only be
made by the most highly quali-
fied scientists.

Our New Bezalels: 1960

By Alfred Werner

When the shooting war ended,
in the fall of 1945, many a young
American of Jewish descent felt
that the time had arrived to turn
a personal dream into reality and
lollow in the footsteps of the wise
and skillful man who built the
Tabernacle in the wilderness. In
other words, there was a rush to
places like the Art Students
League, the National Academy's
School of Fine Arts, the Cooper
Union Art School and other in-
stitutions where painting and
sculpture was taught. Some of
these American boys and girls
were just finishing high school,
while others were returning from
what had been the battle fields
of Europe and Asia. They were
young and full of what mad ideal-
ism required of any one embark-
ing upon the hazards of a career
in any of the visual arts.

Now, a decade and a half later,
let us look at them again. Have
they remained true to their high
ideals? Were they able to express
in whatever medium they chose—
their individuality in such a way
as to communicate through their
work their subtle feelings about
themselves, the world a r o 11 n d
them, their fellow-men? Being
Tews, have they been influenced
by some of the major events of our
era (ranging from the annihila-
tion of six million Jews to the
creation of a Tewish state) suf-
ficentlv to transmute lewish senti-
ments into tangible creations?

A full report on the accomplish-
ments of living American Tewish
artists between thirtv and forty
is not possible within a short
article, so T have selected fifteen
oainters and eraphic artists. These
have achieved some prominence,
due to their unusual talents, and

to publicity given them by the
Museum of Modern Art, the Whit-
ney Museum of American Art,
the Jewish Museum and other in-
stitutions of national influence.
These fifteen have a few things
in common. All but three are
American-born, and even these
three were children when they
were brought to this country.
They all come from Jewish homes,
yet none of them had to experi-
ence the harassment of earlier
Jewish artists who were forced to
wage a two-front battle against
Gentiles who looked askance at
the infiltration of Jews into the
art world, and against their own
tradition-bound families who
maintained that the pursuit of art
was in violation of the Second
Commandment. Because I have
conviction that figurative art can
be as valuable and as modern in
spirit as abstract art, and believe
that non-abstract art deserves as
much attention as the currently
more fashionable non-objective
trends, I have deliberately select-
ed artists whose activitv is largely
concerned with recording their
sentiments and ideas about the
visible Avorld.

Herbert Katzman, the Chicago-
an who spent the war years in
naval service and studied in Eu-
rope after the war, seems to speak
for all of them: "1 paint things
around me that I like and if at
times the paintings move it's be-
cause I am moved by the world
around me. ... T do not paint
abstractly because if T give up the
appearance of the world I am
unable to become involved in it."
Therefore, he uses color energe-
tically and rhythmically to record

What Is A Jew?

By Janice Moff

Janice is the 17 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Willie Moff, and the
grandaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Baer, of Dunn, N. C. This was an
essay written for her school work. — THE EDITOR.

The question we are going to
try to deal with, "What Is a Jew?"
is one which both Jews and non-
Jews ask. The universal reason
people ask that question today is
that there is so much uncertainty
about the term "Jew". This was
not the case generations ago, be-
cause in those days one could de-
line Jew very clearly.

One must consider their ideas
about what they think a Jew is
and then without being embar-
rassed and afraid and to tolerate
the feeling of the question should
accurately include their true feel-
ings, not abandon from mind their
thoughts of what a Jew is. Many
people have a closed mind and
avoid any information that might
enlighten them to what the word
'Jew" means. (Through the gen-
erations many customs of the Jew-
ish people still survive and those
non-Jewish people of today dislike
us for our customs.)

I think even though I am Jew-
ish, many of the Christians dis-
like the Jewish people, because
they are confused and do not
understand our beliefs. Have you
as a Christian ever stopped to
analyze your thoughts of this term
or do you remain silent with

curiosity? To simplify my opinion
of what a Jew is goes back to the
five books of Moses. We are told
thou shaft love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, with all thy
soul, and with all thy might. How
can we love God when we cannot
see Him is the question often ask-
ed. He is the invisible Spirit, the
intangible Mind of the Universe.

Is there a conflict between the
Jewish way of life, the Catholic,
and the Protestant? No, to me,
there should not be, because we
are all God's people and we should
proceed in a pattern that He has
set for us as an individual. There
is so much information that we
could study and learn about this
term that we should leave a va-
cancy in our mind and heart to
learn more.

To be a Jew means to know and
preserve the great spiritual treas-
ures for the future, to live by the
rules of conduct laid down by
prophet, lawgiver, psalmist and
sage, to walk humblv in the pres-
ence of both God and Man. To be
a Jew means to be a disciple of
the Torah, a lover of mankind
and worshipper of God, for it is
for this, and no other reason that
the Jew was created.

The Morn OS Plenty

Once upon a time there was a
land whose people were the freest
on the face of the earth. Being
the freest, they had won for
themselves every manner of hap-
piness and enjoyment. All de-
lights and luxuries poured forth
in an endless stream. But the
people's appetites could not be
appeased and they demanded that
the king of the land provide
them with more and more of the
ceaseless flow, and the king al-
ways said Yes, until one day the
king discovered that his horn of
plenty was rapidly emptying and
he could do no more to satisfy
the demands.

The king then said to his

people, "If you were a truly free
folk, the emptiness of my supply
would create no problem and
your happiness would continue
unbated?" The people were amaz-
ed with the king's words and they
vociferated, "Are we not the freest
people on the face of the earth?
Has any nation ever been more
free?" To which the king replied,
"You are the freest people, in-
deed, but not yet a truly free
people. Only a people which can
learn to say No to itself as well
as Yes is free."
Moral: If the horn of plenty
Is freedom's only wish,
How will it survive
On any lesser dish?

So, You're Going To Israel!

(Continued From Page 42)

and you won't even need a shower
in the morning, as the dew in Is-
rael is heavy and if that's good
enough a bath lor a rose, why
shouldn't it "dew" for you?

Now you want to eat of course.
For breakfast, I recommend you
clo not have poached eggs. The
term for poached eggs is ze-zah-
a-lu-ma. That's a little difficult.
Instead, I suggest that you just
ask for eggs — bezah and leave
the rest to the restaurant. That's
what they are there for.

Also I recommend that you take
grapefruit juice instead oi orange
juice. The term for grapefruit is
esh-ko-lit, much simpler than miz-
tap-u-zim, the term lor orange
juice.

Don't go to Israel to get past-
rami. Do you get chop suey in
China? But there are many ori-
ental dishes which the Israelis de-
light in which you will find satis-
factory substitutes, like taheena, a
paste of sesame seeds, garlic, etc.
with peeta, a flat pancake shaped
bread; falafel, small balls of
ground chick peas; mashi, made of
peppers, squash or eggplant stuf-
fed with rice, ground meat and
potatoes. The oriental Jews have
been eating these dishes for cen-
turies and they are still here.

Of course, you will want to
phone someone in Israel. That's
another Hebrew word you should
learn. The Hebrew for telephone
is telephone. The last syllable,
phone is pronounced "fun", so
have fun while phoning and you
should have it, because the price
of a phone call is only 3 cents
in American money.

What you say in your telephone
conversation is of course your
business.

A cake of soap in Israel costs
14 cents. A package of Virginia
type cigarettes of tobacco grown
in Israel is 33 cents. A glass of
orange juice, 7 cents. A cup of
chocolate and cake will stand you
28 cents. If you need a hair cut,
wait until you get to Israel, where
the charge is only 45 cents.

You will wish to travel about
the country?

Where should you go?

That depends on whether you
wish to go — high or low?
There is no place in the world
where you can go from high to
low so quickly. If you want to go
high, Jerusalem and Safad, the
latter Israel's Greenwich Village,
where the artists congregate— are
the highest parts of the country

"the way the yellow-black sky
looks over the Brooklyn Bridge,
the way a sun hits a building, or
the way my wile looks in an ©chre-
green dress."

His work might be called Ex-
pressionist, like that of Gandy
Brodie, in whose portraits, land-
scapes and still life with scattered
fruit there is always an ardent de-
sire to penetrate th]e veils of
reality, to fix upon the canvas
the metaphysics of bodies. No
less a "chromaticist" is Jonah
Kinigstein whose large canvases
are baroque in the treatment of
subject and in the use of the
medium: flickering, swirling im-
pasto transports the viewer to
the altars set up by the Counter-
Reformation, and the dolorous
figures are reminiscent of Saints
found in primitive country
churches of the early 17th century.

Veering in the direction of
Abstractionism, though still with-
in the realm ot representation,
are Philip Pearlstein and German-
born Wolf Kahn. Pearlstein's
early work — renderings of strange-
rock formations, torrential rivers
and wild seas — recalls the fever-
ish eye and the electrically charg-
ed brush of a Soutine. The late
work is more solidly constructed
—as though the artist had paid
more attention to the teachings
of Cezanne, or, quite simply, as
if he had matured rather quickly,
With a palette confined main!}
to browns and greys and blues,
he creates an identification with
the stones and trees washed up-

rooted by the surging elements.
Vehemence, though controlled, is,
nevertheless, clearly felt. Wolf
Kahn is more lyrical, more gentle.
He has learned from Monet
(paintings of the facade ol Rouen
Cathedral, where substance is dis-
solved into atmospheric vibrances)
and from Whistler'? almost ab-
stract "Nocturnes." But he is not
hampered, as the Impressionists
were, by would-be-scientific con-
siderations. In pale, soft color he
establishes the essence of Venetia
vistas, referring faintly to the con-
tours of celebrated buildings, yet
letting the wise expanses of ocean
and sky do all the mysterious
whispering.

Jan Muller was German-born
like Kahn. When the Nazis came
to power, the Mullers fled to
Switzerland, Holland and France
until they safely arrived in the
U.S.A. Jan studied under the dean
of abstract art, Hans Hofmann.
Gradually freeing himself from
II o 1 m a n n's overpowering in-
fluence, he introduced figures in-
to his romantically expressionist
canvases that were often inspired
by the Bible or by literary subjects
(for instance, Goethe's Faust). "I
hold that the drive to art should
result from the conscious desire
to express feeling," he once wrote,
adding, "it may be that through
abstraction such expression is most
readily realized, but it is through
other, more traditional channels
that I gain my satisfaction." In
1957, his work was exhibited at
both the Whitney Museum and
the Jewish Museum, but a year
later he was dead, at the age of
thirty-five.

Sattire, expecially about the
neurotic restlessness of modern
man, can be felt in the large can-
vases of Sarai Sherman (the only
woman in our group, although
American women have played a
most active part in the visual arts
during the last fifteen years'). Her
figures, slightlv distorted for em-
phasis, are taken' from real life
and rendered in subtle color with

of Israel, on the one hand, and
corresponds to the needs of the
American Jewish community, on
the other. For no organization can
prosper unless its programs cor-
respond to the need of the com-
munity. This is doubly true of a
Zionist organization. Among our
important projects in Israel, for
instance, the ZOA House has been
the most" popular and most suc-
cessful, because the idea of an
American House in Israel cor-
responds to the psychological
need of the Israeli as well as the
American Jew who visits the State.
The role that the ZOA House in
Tel Aviv has been playing in re-
cent years makes us rightly proud
of the vision of our organization,
and demands of us at this hour
to proclaim to American Jewry
that we are determined to con-
tinue this project with the estab-
lishment of an American House
in Jerusalem and one in Haifa as
a ten or even twenty year project
of the new reunified ZOA.

The same is true of middle class
Aliyah which, because our mem-
bers come from this social stratum,
we could manage more effective-
ly than any other organization
within the Zionist Movement. And
the same goes for private invest-
ments in Israel — possibly along
the line of investment groups
which some of our leaders started

in different parts of the country
— by which, again, because of the
nature of our organization and
the over-abundance of business-
men in our ranks, the ZOA could
not only become the spearhead for
an enriched Movement lor private
investment in Israel, but would
simultaneously make a contribu-
tion to the State which would
satisfy even a government headed
by a critical Prime Minister.

and increasing wisdom tells one
it really doesn't pay to be other
than perfectly honest all the time
. . . and that to keep on hating the
other guy is an awful disease of
the heart . . . and that to hurt
and to undo a neighbor is a sin
that stinks up to heaven.

So: As I approach the altar this
Rosh Hashona I won't be wear-
ing a white gown as papa did, but
I'll feel rather white inside of me
... as a guy can't help feeling
when he has reached an age of
life in which he's old enough to
put aside wicked aspirations which
might have made him look dirty
to God when he was much young-
er. I'll not have the look of a saint,
but, anyway, I hope to appear as
white as papa did on Rosh
Hnshona far back there.

The American Jewish TIMES-OUTLOOK

Correspondingly, on the Ameri-
can scene the Hebraization ot the
Jewish community is the most im-
portant task of the Zionist Move-
ment in the Diaspora. We ought,
therefore, to come to the Ameri-
can Jewish community with a
long range program for the estab-
lishment of a chair for Hebrew
in every single state university in
these United States. In addition
to the fact that such an undertak-
ing would be the greatest contri-
bution that we could make both
from an Israeli and a Zionist view-
point, the psychological ramifica-
tions are immediately in evidence:
Each Region would undertake the
establishment of the chair at their
own State University and alma
mater, thus involving all their
districts, the Jewish and general
community, city and counfy, state
officials, legislators, and Congress-
men. In short, we would achieve
an involvement of thousands of
members throughout the country,
working for a Zionist goal, yet at
the same time for an American
task, enhancing the status of Zion-
ism in their area, and simultane-
ously malting a contribution to
the spiritual realm of America.

This is a good example, and
there are many others, of creating
a program which corresponds to
the psychological need of our
members in expressing themselves
as Jews, Zionists, and Americans
at one and the same time. If, in
addition to this type of program-

ming, the ZOA will take advant-
age of the new structure of the
American Zionist Council and un-
dertake the implementation of
the many new projects which will
from now on belong to its juris-
diction, it can develop endeavors
in the field of public relation and
Zionist education to keep our
members busy day by day.

A reunified Zionist Organiza-
tion of America, which has re-
gained prestige and has developed
a challenging program, will then,
thirdly, be in a good position to
strengthen its relationship not only
with the American Zionist Coun-
cil and the American Israel Public
Affairs Committee — but also with
the Hadassah, the strongest Gen-
eral Zionist Organization in the
United States. Together with Ha-
dassah, and through the help they
might be willing to extend to us
via the enrollment of husbands
in a reunified and revitalized
ZOA, we could create a General
Zionist Movement in the United
States second to none, both in
prestige, membership and influ-
ence.

It is not easy to get Jews who
have never been affiliated with
the Zionist Movement to join
Zionist organizations at this par-
ticular time. But where one mem-
ber of the family has already been
active in Zionist affairs, it is not
too difficult to influence the part-
ner in marriage to join the cor-
responding m e n's organization
which manifests the very same
Zionist ideology. The increase in
membership alone could amount
to thousands of newcomers into
our ranks, and we could then
achieve in the United States the
realization of the concept of
"Zionist Families," by which a
man and his wife belong to the
men's and women's organization,
respectively, of the very same colo-
ration.

Such a ZOA — with prestige,
program, and large membership
— will, in my opinion, have no
difficulties in assuring the flow of
contributions from our members,
as well as from the general Jewish
community in the United States.
I am certain that by presenting
the Zionist Organization of
America to the Jewish community
in this new format, one can tap
new resources that have never
been opened to us hitherto.

The large number of new
members would in themselves con-
stitute a new source of revenue,

uncanny mystery. Satire — mild
and unobtrusive — is also the
forte of Meyer F. Lieberman (who
makes a living as a commercial
lithographer). In his emotion-
fraught work Jewish ghetto types
are recaptured with extreme care
and attention to minute detail,
though, discarding academic rou-
tine, he puts huge heads on tiny
bodies. ,

Like Lieberman, Llias Frieden-
sohn makes use of the figure to
communicate his interest in Bibli-
cal lore and in the human condi-
tion in general. Far from conjur-
ing up the "beautiful" images of
the Graeco-Roman tradition, he
sees man ■'ugly," pitiable, and
full of that mystery that came with
the Judaeo-Christian stress on in-
wardness. Flis hypnotic canvases
are peopled by strange creatures
with bloated bodies and large
expressive heads. David Aronson,
too is preoccupied with human
qualities. He came to Boston from
Lithuania, endowed with a solid
Hebrew education. His is 'Jewish
Art" in a new view. Distorted to the
point of grotesqueness, his weird
figures look at us with large sad
eyes full of Judenschmerz, with
an unforgettable intensity of ex-
pression.

J ides Kirschenbaum, the young-
est in the group (he is barely
thirty) stands entirely by himself.
This Surrealist tops them all in
his sheer technical skill, which
is matched by an unerring sense
for composition. In his works, full
of self-torturing cruelty, one feels
the terror of a young soul that,
in a round-about way, tries to
come to grips with the metaphysics
of today. His stupendous tech-
nique is reminiscent of that of
such Old Masters as Duerer or
Bosch.

Carl Zigrosser of Philadelphia's
Museum of Art is very hopeful
concerning Aubrey Schwartz who
once studied with Ben Shahn.
Schwartz, he notes, is "one of
America's Angry Young Men— yet,
he can be ever so tender when
drawing a baby. He is angry with
people who are cruel, cunning,
ruthless, predatory, and he ex-
poses them in the guise of birds or
beasts. His lithographs and etch-
ings, with their mordant line,
truly have a fearsome beauty."
Equally gifted is Misch Kohn.
Lions, tigers, hulls stare at us
from his wood engravings. Drama
is produced through the opposi-
tion between glaring whites and
pitch-like blacks, while kaleido-
sopic whirling lines are worked
into the c 1 e a r 1 v recognizable
figures.

I wish to close witn a reference
to Harvey Dinnerstein and Burt
Silverman who journeyed to a
center of racial tension in the
South in order to "recapture and
revive that tradition which saw
the artist as reporter and commen-
tator, the tradition ol Goya, Dau-
mier and Kollwitz." Again and
again their swift pencils succeed
in crystallizing the fear, bitterness
and courage of the simple people
who, by means of boycotts and
strikes, are fighting for elemen-
tary rights that have been denied
to them.

Scholarships and fellowships to-
taling Si 10,000 for the coming
academic year have been granted
to 167 students and scholars who
were victims of Nazi persecution.

The Gifted Jewish Child is a Challenge

By Ben Katan

Could there be a greater source
of undiluted happiness lor Jewish
parents than the discovery that
their children are in the rare class
of the intellectually gifted?

Happiness? It should certainly
be so. Jews traditionally have priz-
ed intellectual gilts and even in
the lush materialism ot affluent
America, evidence of superior
scholastic achievement remains a
source of pride in the Jewish com-
munity.

While it has been established
that Jews have more gifted chil-
dren than any comparable group,
it is also an obvious fact that such
children are rare. Most Jewish
parents do not have gifted chil-
dren and their assumptions about
the nature and degree of the hap-
piness of parents who -!o have
such children can be pretty wide
of the mark.

How far off the mark? Hon1 un-
diluted is the happiness?

Some of the answers have been
provided by Dr. Boris M. Levin-
son, director of the Psychological
Center of Yeshiva University of
New York, a recognized authority
in the lield. In a report on the ;n-
tellectually gifted Jewish child,
scheduled for publication in the
fall issue of Yeshiva Education, a
quarterly published by the Nation-
al Council for Torah Education,
Dr. Levinson has analyzed the
impact of such children on them-
selves, on their classmates, on their
teachers and on their parents.

What problems does a gifted
Jewish child present to himself?

Dr. Levinson replies that the
intellectually superior child is fre-
quently "as much a slave to his
'giftedness' as the dull are slaves
to their dullness." Moreover, the

intellectually gifted child does
not automatically, as many assume,
possess the "open Sesame" to suc-
cess. He is just as likely "to meet
obstacles and difficulties in learn-
ing as the dull or feeble-minded."

Such children ;ire sometimes
found in the category of the "un-
derachiever." These are the bright
children "who are achieving be-
low their mental age level in one
or more academic subjects."

How could it possibly be that
the child with unusual capacity
for learning might be doing less
well than fellow-pupils of lesser
capacities?

Among the possible explana-
tions, Dr. Levinson reports, is the
likelihood that the intellectually
gifted child may find school life
unrewarding if he is not properly
motivated. "If lie is forced to come
to school, to keep quiet and sit
still for 45 minutes, he may begin
to feel bored and think of the
school as a prison." He may start
to daydream. His daydreams may
become more satisfying than Ins
school work and soon "this young-
ster will become deTicient in skills
that his average classmate can
h audi e proficiently." Profound
and lasting personality problems
may develop.

What problem does such a child
present to his teachers?

Gifted children, says Dr. Levin-
son, need classroom programs
which put less emphasis on learn-
ing new facts and new techniques
and more stress on helping them
to learn how to integrate emotion
a I responses and developing intel-
lectual response. The teacher al-
so "should encourage all spon-

taneous exploration of an interest
in a new field" by such children.

Dr. Levinson emphasizes that in
the Jewish day school, smaller
classes make it possible for the
teacher "to differentiate assign-
ments within the class and to offer
the intellectually gifted child an
enriched program."

The cooperation of teachers
in the special situation of the Jew-
ish day school for such teaching
programs is by no means to be
assumed. The strong possibility of
teacher resistance to such class-
room innovations is indicated in
Dr. Levinson's warning that
"somehow, it must be made clear
to the teachers that this program
represents no threat to them." The
teachers, he adds, "would need
sympathetic handling, encourage-
ment and inducements to intro-
duce" such programs.

Assurance of teacher support
does not necessarily mean that
such programs can be started;
there may be powerful resistance
from other sources, such as the
parents of the less gifted children.
Dr. Levinson cites the case of a
large and progressive day school
where the teachers and principal
agreed to introduce a rapid ad-
vanced class to permit the more
gifted children to complete three
years of study in two. The plan
was announced and described at a
Parent-Teachers Meeting. How
die the ].arenls react to this admir-
able advanced idea?

Some parents felt that some
children, including presumably
their own would be discriminated
against "because they were on
cither full or part-time scholar-
ships. Others thought that, since
they payed lull tuition, their chil-
dren were entitled to 'all the bene-
fits and skipping' that other chil-
dren were. Still others quoted
chapter and verse on the unrelia-
bility of tests and teachers' grades."
Upshot: The principal and the
teachers beat a hasty retreat and
the plan was abandoned.

Another aspect of relations of
teachers to gifted children is that
which sometimes develops from
the fact that "it is not unusual to
find that some teachers, as well

as some parents, Feel insecure in
dealing with the intellectually
gifted child who often knows more
than they do."

Ideally, what should the teach-
er do in such circumstances? He
should, says Dr. Levinson, "ac-
knowledge frankly his ignorance
and call upon the gifted child to
supply the information." What
does he in fact actually do? If he
feels his authority is threatened,
he "may turn against the child,
chastise him or even ridicule him
in an attempt to turn the whole
class against him."

What problems does the gifted
Jewish child face in relation to
his peers?

The case of Joshua, a third
grader in a Jewish day school, is
instructive. Joshua, possessing an
IQ of 185, was big for his age,
well adjusted to his classmates and
a happy child. But he was bored
with his classwork and the prin-
cipal decided to skip him a grade.

The children in the third and
fifth grades became very antago-
nistic to Joshua because their
parents assured them that they
were just as smart a Joshua and
that his extra promotion was not
due to his brilliance "but to the
fact" that Joshua's parents were
mainstays of the Yeshiva and were
thus in a position to secure extra
privileges for Joshua. In vain did
the principal protest that Joshua
was doing extremely well in the
filth grade.

"The children began to ostracise
him. They would not play with
him or even talk to him. Joshua
was no longer the happy go lucky
boy he used to be. He was becom-
ing bitter and morose, a child
with a chip on his shoulder. At
this point, we recommended that
he be transfered to the fifth grade
of another Yeshiva. He adjusted
beautifully there and later won
very high scholastic honors."

What problems does the gifted
Jewish child present to his par-
ents?

Some of these are suggested in
Dr. Levinson's advice to such
parents. They must, for example,
"consider the possibility that their
child mav not be as advanced

socially, physically or motorially
as he is intellectually." Such par-
ents should also try to be aware
"of their own feelings of insecurity
or inadequacy. They must try to
think through some of their feel-
ings and expectations of their
children as well as how they be-
have toward their children."

Sometimes the results are start-
ling: "We find that some parents,
after such soul-searching, discover
that they do not like their gifted
children. Others will not admit
that their children are gifted in
the mistaken belief that such ad-
mission will make the child — be-
cause of his exaggerated opinion
of himseh — unable to adjust
socially to his peers and develop
friendships."

There are other problems, in-
cluding the parents who are over-
ambitious and force their gifted
children to overwork: and those
who, overprotecting "their prec-
ious gift," tend to "infantalize"
their child by not allowing him
to engage in activities normal to
children of his age.

And there are still others.

Whether viewed from the tra-
ditional Jewish standpoint of pro-
found respect for great intellectual
endowment, or from the more gen-
eral viewpoint that now, perhaps
more than ever before, society
urgently needs such intellects, the
Jewish gifted child is indeed to be
prized. But an attitude of general-
ized respect for a high IQ is vir-
tually useless as a guarantee — il
there is a guarantee — that such
children will be provided with a
home, play and school environ-
ment of maximum opportunity
and encouragement to develop in-
to well-adjusted adults capable of
using their superior intellects in
creative ways. The gifted Jewish
child, apparently no less than his
non- Jewish contemporary, must
walk a rocky road of development,
not only intellectually but also
socially and emotionally — largely
because he is intellectually gifted.

It seems safe to conclude that
such Jewish children all too often
are not getting from either their
parents or their teachers the un-
derstanding and the guidance they
so desperately need.

votion to the humanitarian work of its agencies. She was presented with a

The American Jewish TIMES-OUTLOOK

A Jewish Catholic and a Catholic Jew

By Seymour B. Liebman

September, i960

Since the sixth or seventh cen-
turies, there have been few Jewish
historians. We are a people of
history but often lack a sense of
and appreciation for recording
present history. Unfortunately,
there are many blind spots in the
histories of Jews dispersed
throughout the world. Not only
are we ignorant of what happened
during decades but even for cen-
turies.

People are generally familiar
with the Inquisition. However, it
required the 19th century with
its Liberalism and Enlightenment
to inaugurate extensive research
into the history of the Inquisition.
Scholars who were able to read
Latin and ancient Spanish and
who were also paleographers be-
gan to bring to light matters that
were hidden in old musty tomes
and in dark corners of many
churches and cathedrals.

We are indebted to Professor
Henry C. Lea, for His work on the
History of the Inquisition and
the History of the Inquisition in
the Spanish Dependencies, His
contribution in English in part,
inspired Jewish scholars to pur-
sue Lea's revelations. George Alex-
ander Kohut of the Amsterdam
Jewish Historical Society, was one
of those who picked up the figu-
rative gauntlet and carried on the
work insofar as it pertained to
Jewry.

We are also indebted to Dr.
Cecil Roth for his History of the
Marranos. This book while his-
torical, has all the elements of
not one but literally thousands
of human dramas more exciting
than any work of fiction, more
suspenseful than any novel.

Just as the Rabbis of old loved
to teach and moralize from para-
bles or the "mashal", so the re-
cords of the Inquisition are an
equal source for lessons that each
generation of Jews should learn.
These records are almost fantastic
in the wealth of detail and the
completeness of some of the trials.
In a time when shorthand was un-
known and stenotype machines
unheard of, we find verbatim re-
ports of lengthy speeches. Let it
be said for the records of these
trials that they did not omit or
change the tenor of the language.
Even when such language consti-
tuted a reflection upon the valid-
ity of the Church, each report

had to be signed by the accused
so as to have his attestation as to
the correctness of The reports.

One of these trials was that of
Francisco Malonado De Silva. He
is our Catholic Jew and was born
about 1593 and was baptized as
a Catholic. He became a Jew
some time about 1611 or 1612 and
lived in Chile and Lima, Peru,
when he was approximately 19
years of age.

It is now necessary to introduce
the Jewish Catholic, who was al-
ready an adult in 1406, and lived
in Spain, some 7000 miles from
Peru. Rabbi Solomon ha-Levi was
a "converso" and had voluntarily
embraced Christianity in order to
further his personal ambitions, ac-
cording to H. Graetz. He was
learned and, after becoming an
"apostate," embraced Christianity
with greater vigor than those who
had been born to the faith. He
resented the continued existence
of the "Mosiac" faith. Tlis dreams
for personal advancement and
high office were fulfilled. He
adopted the name Pablo (Paul) de
Santa Maria. He became a mem-
ber of the Council of State in
Spain and co-regent for the in-
fant, King Juan II. In order to
have Jews follow in his footsteps,
he wrote a book, "Scrutinium
Scripturarum," which bore his
title of Bishop of Burgos. He was
also papal delegate to the Spanish
court.

Now we travel 200 years in time
and 7000 miles in space to find
ourselves back with young De
Silva at the age of 18 in approxi-
mately 1611. His mother came
from an old Catholic family. He
had been christened and baptized
at birth and up to his 18th year
had regularly attended Mass and
gone to confession, and had other-
wise observed the tenets of the
Christian faith.

He was an intelligent man,
studied medicine, and ultimately
became a leading surgeon in the
Kingdom of Peru. At 18, he came
across the work of the infamous
former rabbi, Pablo de Santa
Maria, and read, "Scrutinium
Scripturarum." The book disturb-
ed him. He became aware of in-
consistencies and fallacies and in-
stead of finding confirmation for
his faith, he felt that Judaism
possessed something that was lack-
ing in Christianity.

Being troubled in mind and
spirit, he sought the advice of his
father. He then iearned for the
first time that his father had been
born a Jew, had been converted,
had been brought before the In-
quisition as a heretic in 1605, and
had been released as a penitent
and suffered only a monetary
fine.

His father had never revealed
this information because he did
not want his son to be exposed
to any peril. However, in view of
his son's statements, he told him
whatever he knew of the religion
of Moses which the father still
secretly observed and they began
to study the Bible together.

Young Francisco became a be-
lieving Jew but still outwardly
observed "certain practices and
ceremonies of 1 1 is former faith,
attending Mass and going to con-
fession, although he no longer
held either essential to the salva-
tion of his soul.''

The young man married and
had a daughter but did not reveal
his line religion to his wife or
child. Subsequently, he attempt-
ed to convert his older sister, Isa-
bel, who was a spinster and a
devout Catholic. She, however,
was shocked upon learning of the
heresy of her younger brother.
His sister remained unswerved in
her devotion to Catholicism and
she pleaded with him, "not to

The American Jewish

persist in his madness, for she
saw therein the shadow of the
stake." ,

Ignorant of what an earlier
martyr, Rabbi Aklba, had said
1600 years prior thereto and what
would be said 150 years later by
another martyr, Nathan Hale, he
told her that "even if he had one
thousand lives, he would gladly
lose them in the service of the
living God."

When Isabel saw she could not
bring about a change, she told
another sister, Donna Felipa Mal-
tlonado, who advised Isabel to re-
veal all to her Confessor. His
sister, the devout Catholic, re-
ported all this 10 her Priest at
Confession, who told her, "she
had to notify the chief authorities
of the Holy Ollke and she appear-
ed before them."

Donna Felipa also appeared,
"in the gorgeous robes of the so-
ciety of Jesus and deposed against
her brother, repeating all that she
had heard from her sister, Isabel."
Among the detailed information
she gave was that her brother,
"observed the [ewish feasts and
lasts, put on a clean shirt on the
Sabbath, etc."

Francisco Maldonado De Silva
was arrested in 1627 and incarce-
rated until 1(139 when he was
finally burnt at the stake. For
over 1 1 years, the church did all
in its power to re-convert him to

Christianity. Fifteen disputations
and debates were had between
him and leading Catholic authori-
ties and theologians during the
years 1627 and 1633. He remained
unconvinced of any error and
took the affirmative in attempt-
ing to prove to his opponents
that they were wrong. He adopt-
ed the name, Eli Nazaveno.

He reported how he had cir-
cumcized himself, first trying to
do it with a razor and then with
a scissors. He confessed to having
ridiculed the Doctrine of the Trin-
ity and was able to recite by heart
portions of the Bible, the Psalms
and the 18 Benedicts (Shimoneh
Esrei). While in prison, he would
fast four days instead of one, "Ask-
ing God for remission of his sins."

In 1634, he fasted for 80 days,
breaking the fast with occasional
bowls of porridge and became so
weak "that he could not turn in
his bed, being nothing but skin
and bones."

After his convalescence, he be-
gan to collect husks from the corn
for which he had asked as a sub-
stitute for bread. He saved the
husks and ultimately made a rope
of them and "somehow contrived
to swing himself through an open-
ing in his cell." He did not seek
escape from the jail but rather in-
vaded two cells where other Jews
were awaiting trial, strengthened
their fortitude and "actually con-
verted two Catholics to Judaism,
one accused of "bigamy, the other,
a friar, of breaking his views of
celibacy."

George H. Kohut continues as
follows, "The plot was, of course,
discovered, and De Silva was
brought to bay, and admitted
everything, pleading excessive re-
ligious zeal as the only motive
of the offense."

"That this weak, underfed, and
defenseless man was a tower of
strength, occasioning his judges
and his learned opponents much
vexation of spirit, may be seen
from the following passage of the
official report of the trial, which
we copy literally, 'God grant,' so
runs the pious wish, "that the
prisoner had become mute as a
result of his memorable eighty
days fast, ere the great conspiracy
could have been consummated;
thus stricken, he could not have
prevailed upon the many impris-
oned Judaizantes awaiting trial
for complicity in a proselytizing

heresy in the dungeons of the
holy and blessed Tribunal."

He was burnt at the stake
January 23, 1639. It was a great
festive day and great masses of
peojjle came from as far as 40
leagues from the capital. The pre-
paration had consumed 50 days of
uninterrupted labor. In addition
to De Silva, there were 1 1 other
Judaizantes, who marched to the
funeral pyre. The very last in this
dismal company was Francisdb
Maldonado de Silva, a Nazarite
indeed, pale and emaciated, a
mere bundle of bones, his long
hair and "beard forming a halo
around his head, with the precious
little books he wrote fastened
around his neck in mockery as it
were — who, when the death sen-
tence was read, exclaimed:

"This is the will of the Lord.
I shall see the God of Israel face

to face!"

Jane Addams and The Millionaire

By Bernard Postal

As the world this month honors
the centennial of the birth of
Jane Addams, social reformer and
Nobel Prize winner, this article
recalls her close ties with Julius
Rosenwald, the self-made Jewish
millionaire and philanthropist,
and other leaders of the Jewish
Community Center movement in
Chicago.

"One teels that it is a benedic-
tion to have her in the home."

The speaker was Julius Rosen-
wald, the great Chicago philan-
thropist whose vast benefactions
resulted in major social changes.
He was referring to Jane Addams,
famed social reformer, and one of
the great women of this century,
whose centennial year is being
celebrated throughout the world.

The unique relationship be-
tween the self-made millionaire
who was the son of a German-
Jewish immigrant and the bank-
er's daughter who devoted her
life to fighting for social justice
and world peace was a decisive
factor in ridding Chicago of many
of its worst social evils.

Jane Addams fought an historic
and often heroic struggle against
sub-standard health and sanitation
conditions, the shame of child
*abor, sweat shops and vice-breed-
ing slums, and sordid municipal
corruption. She battled for high-
er standards of education, com-
munity recreation, social services,
woman suffrage and world peace.
In all of these efforts she had the
unswerving support of Rosen-
wald, as well as of a number of
other prominent Jews.

Rosenwald differed from many
of his business contemporaries
who sneered at Miss Addams as
a radical. But he accepted her as
an honest reformer whose ideas
he respected and generally adopt-
ed and supported. He and Mrs.
Rosenwald seldom missed the din-
ners Miss Addams gave for guests
who were important in the field
of social work. When an Ameri-
can Legion official assailed her as
subversive, Rosenwald not only

defended her publicly but de-
manded an apology from her de-
tractor.

One bitter cold night in 1910,
when Miss Addams and Rosen-
wald were attending a meeting of
the Immigrant Protective League
— an organization that protected
immigrants from unscrupulous
exploiters — she had to hurry
away to speak at a meeting of a
committee raising relief funds for
the striking clothing workers.
Rosenwald stopped her and said:
"You're going to that strike meet-
ing, aren't you?" She said she was
and Rosenwald smilingly remark-
ed that he probably wouldn't
agree with a word she'd say, but
he was going to see to it that she
didn't catch cold on the way. He
then took Tier down to the street
and put her in his automobile and
sent her to the strike meeting.

Rosenwald was just getting
started as a Chicago clothing mer-
chant in 1884 when Miss Addams
opened Hull House to serve the
newly-arrived immigrants of all
racial and religious backgrounds.
Located in the heart of Chicago's
West Side ghetto, Hull House had
a tremendous impact on the Jew-
ish newcomers. Thirsting for
knowledge, they crowded its lec-
ture halls, library, art galleries
and classes.

In the spring of 1892 the lead-
ers of the German Jewish com-
munity in Chicago called a con-
ference at Hull House to establish
"a social settlement in the West
Side ghetto" to serve as a center
for the "enlightenment" of needy
and newly-arrived Jewish immi-
grants. Among the participants
were Julian W. Mack and Lessing
Rosenthal.

Together with Miss Addams
they were among the most power-
ful and liberalizing influences on
Rosenwald. To Miss Addams
Rosenwald looked for inspiration
and leadership. To Judge Mack
and Lessing Rosenthal the emi-
nent philanthropist turned for
guidance in selecting causes, in-

stitutions and movements to which
he gave his name and his support.

Miss Addams, too, was present,
primarily as an observer. She was
heartsick as she saw how the
wealthier German Jews patronized
their less fortunate Russian Jew-
ish co-religionists. She was equally
shocked Tjy the bitterness between
the two groups of Jews and at a
loss to understand the feeling of
some of the Russian Jews that the
proposed settlement was nothing
but a scheme to introduce Reform
Judaism in their midst. Before
the meeting was over she had to
serve as arbitrator but had the
satisfaction of seeing agreement
on a plan to open what became
Known as the Maxwell Street
Settlement.

In this earliest Jewish Commun-
ity Center in Chicago the immi-
grants found classes in foreign
languages and English, bookkeep-
ing, arithmetic, American history,
commercial practices, debating,
physical culture, art, nature study
and debating. Similar settlements
had been established in New York,
Boston, Philadelphia, St. Louis,
Cleveland and other cities to help
Americanize the immigrants and
to ease their adjustment of Ameri-
can life.

The Maxwell Street Settlement
was short-lived but it had started
something important which was
revived in 1903 with the creation
of the Chicago Hebrew Institute.
By that time Rosenwald had be-
come an active supporter of Hull
House and was serving on its
board. Jane Addams encouraged
the founders ot the Hebrew In-
stitute and undoubtedly influenc-
ed Rosenwald to give it his sup-
port. Its first building was acquir-
ed with the aid of a substantial
loan from Rosenwald. On the
site of this structure now stands
the Jane Addams Houses. In 1910
and 1911 Rosenwald served as
president of the Jewish People's
Institute, as the agency came to
be known.

A year later Rosenwald and
Mack went to New York to help
organize the first permanent na-
tional association of YMHAs —
the National Council of Young
Men's Hebrew and Kindred As-
sociations. This was the predeces-
sor of the National Jewish Welfare
Board, which merged with the
Council in 1921. The Council's
first executive director, Samuel
A. Goldsmith, later went to Chi-
cago where since 1930 he has been
executive vice-president of the
Jewish Federation of Metropolitan

Chicago. In the last five years of
Miss Addams' life, Goldsmith was
actively associated with her in
many civic, educational and rec-
reational reforms.

Rosenwald's successor as presi-
dent of the Jewish People's In-
stitute, Jacob M. Loeb, headed the
agency for 22 years. When he re-
tired in 1933 as president and
also as a vice-president of the Na-
tional Jewish Welfare Board, he
was given a dinner at which Miss
Addams was the principal speaker.
Loeb's grandson, Hamilton Loeb,
Jr., is now president of the Jewish
Community Centers of Chicago,
which grew out of the Jewish
People's Institute.

Other contemporary leaders of
the Jewish community of Chicago
and of the Center movement also
earned their social service spurs
under Miss Addams' inspiring

tutelage. Charles Aaron, a former
president of JWB and of the Jew-
ish People's Institute, and now
president of the Jewish Federation
of Metropolitan Chicago, was a

volunteer club worker at Hull
House in his early twenties and
knew Miss Addams quite well.
For several years he directed a cur-
rent events class at Hull House.

Shown lecturing to his students is Professor Isaac C. Michaelson, head
of Hadassah's Department of Ophthalmology and one of the world's promi-
nent ophthalmologists, awarded the Israel Prize for I960 in recognition of
outstanding achievement in medicine.

Mrs. Florence G. Heller, a niece
of Julius Rosenwald, and for
many years a vice-president of the
Jewish People's Institute, also
served a youthful apprenticeship
at Hull House before she became
a leader of the Jewish People's In-
stitute and later a vice-president
and chairman of the Jewish Com-
unity Center Division of the Na-
tional Jewish Welfare Board. Jane
Addams would have been pleased
to learn that Mrs. Heller has made
possible the Florence Heller Grad-
uate School for Advanced Studies
in Social Welfare at Brandeis
University.

Jane Addams' ties with Jewish
settlement houses and the early
YMHAs were not confined to
Chicago. Whenever she came to
New York she always visited the
Educational Alliance which had
been founded in 1883 as a lower
East Side branch of New York's
YMHA, now the famed 92nd St.
YM-YWHA. She was a great ad-
mirer of Dr. David Blaustein, the
Educational Alliance's executive
director, and she probably had
something to do with the fact
that he was called to Chicago in
1908 to head the Jewish People's
Institute. Fernard Horowich, a
founder of the Jewish People's In-
stitute, frequently met with Miss
Addams to get her help in de-
veloping the early J PI program.
Today, the Jewish Community
Centers of Chicago is erecting a
$2, 000,000 North Westside JCC
named for him.

When JPI opened its magnifi-
cent new building in the Lawn-
dale section of Chicago in 1927
no two guests were prouder than
Jane Addams and Julius Rosen-
wald. One ol the speakers at the
dedication exercises was the late
Dr. Phillip L. Seman, who was
general director of JPI for more
than 30 years. During this period
he worked closely with Miss
Addams on many community pro-
jects. His tribute to Miss Addams
in the JPI Observer when she
died in 1935 epitomized the close
ties that existed for more than a
generation between one of the
greatest of American women and
the Jewish Community Centers of
Chicago. Wrote Dr. Seman:

"The Jewish People's Institute,
which she knew so well, which
from its very inception was her
neighbor, and which at all times
she treated in the neighborly
fashion that only she was capable
of, pays tribute to the nobility of

her character and for the privilege
of its close association with her
during the last 35 years, which
represent the life of the Institute,
and probably the most fruitful
years of her life."

One of the few survivors of the
Jane Addams era of social reform
and social service is Mrs. Alfred
D. Kohn, an octogenerian lady,
who enlisted under Miss Addams'
banner some 50 years ago. For
nearly 30 years, Mrs. Kohn lived
and worked at Hull House, help-
ing immigrants and victims of
persecution, whether they were
Jewish or Irish, Italian or Polish.
All found help at Hull House
and an opportunity for self-expres-
sion and appreciation of their
worth as human beings.

These were, and are, the basic j
appeals of Jewish Community
Centers in Chicago as elsewhere
in the country. It was no accident
therefore that the Golden Age
Hall of Fame established by the
Golden Age Department of the j
Jewish Community Centers of j
Chicago, chose to honor in the j
Jane Addams centennial year Mrs.
Kohn "in recognition of her manv
years of devoted service to the
welfare of our Jewish and gen-
eral community by which she has
inspired our city's elder citizens." I

Mr. Sol Rabkin, director of the I
Anti-Defamation League's law de-
partment, told a group of teen-age I
regional officers of the B'nai B'rith
ifouth Organization, attending the I
annual leadership training insti- j
tute at Camp B'nai B'rith, Star-
light, Pa., that unless Jews over-
come "Upper Level" discrimina- I
tion within the near future, there I
is a "major danger" that "Jews I
will become wholly excluded from I
the power structure" of the Ameri- I
can community.

Some Odd Jewish Statistics

By P. Niber

Statistics, it is often said, make
for dull reading. But those who
are capable of something more
than a mere cursory reading of
figures, who can compare figures
or put them together or place
them in a background setting with
which they are familiar, can often
find in statistics very absorbing
reading.

A pamphlet published not long
ago by the Institute of Jewish
Affairs of the World Jewish Con-
gress and called "The Jewish Com-
munities of the World" contains
figures and general information
on Jewish communities every-
where, their demography, political
and organizational status, educa-
tion and press. It was prepared
and edited by Dr. Nehemiah Rob-
inson, Director of the Institute.
Though this pamphlet of 74
pages can hardly pretend to give
even the sketchiest pictutre of
Jewish life in various countries,
the facts and figurse that it does
contain are full of interest for
those who know how to read
them, if only for some of the od-
dities of Jewish life in various
countries that these facts and
figures reveal.

Let us first note those countries
that are entirely, or virtually
Jewless. The countries which con-
tain no Jews whatsoever are Jor-
dan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen, all
three Arab countries who still
maintain an implacable hostility
toward the State of Israel. Yemen
originally contained about 50,000
lews, but all but a few hundred

of them emigrated to Israel after
the establishment of the Jewish
state. The Yemen government it-
self hastened the process of Jew-
ish emigration by the threat of ex-
pulsion and the few Jews who
wanted to remain there had to em-
brace Islam in order to be able to
stay on.

these are the medieval, fan-
tical, anti-Jewish Arab lands who
refuse to harbor Jews within their
borders. But there is another
country, a very progressive, West
European country, albeit a small
one, which also seems to contain
no Jews whatsoever, since the
pamphlet doesn't even list it.
This is Iceland, now an indepen-
dent country which was once up-
on a time a colony of Denmark.
Iceland has no doubt been a tem-
porary residence for many Ameri-
can Jewish servicemen, since the
United States has an air base
there, and probably many Ameri-
can Jewish tourists have during
the years paid a visit to this large
island in the Atlantic that almost
reaches to the Artie Circle. But
isn't there a single Jewish perm-
anent resident in Iceland? Ap-
parently not. And if such is the
case, we don't know the exact
reason (or it — whether it's be-
cause the Government won't ad-
mit Jews or because Jews them-
selves don't care to settle there.

Two small countries in the
heart of Asia are also not listed
and we may assume that they
contain no Jews they are Nepal

Western Virginia's leading newspapers, The

of the Roanoke newspapers attest reader satis-

and Bhutan, wedged in the Him-
alaya Mountains between India
and China and among the most
backward countries in the world.
The Jewish population of China
itself, which has the largest popu-
lation of any country in the world,
has as a result of the Communist
take-over of China dwindled from
about 30,000 at the beginning ol
World War II to about 300 now.
In Ceylon too, a country with
many millions of people, there are
only about 10 Jews left and the
former synagogue in Colombo, tin
Ceylonese capital and metropolis,
has been turned into a tea house.
Formosa (Taiwan), which for a
time served as a temporary haven
lor Jews from the mainland ol
China, by now has only a few
Jews left, without any communal
or other organization.

In Africa, too, there are colonies
and independent countries which
contain hardly any Jews. Basuto-
land, a British protectorate, has
only 2 Jews, both high officials
of the British colonial govern-
ment. Liberia contains a single
Jewish family living in Monrovia,
the capital. Nigeria, the largest of
the newly-established independent
Negro states in Africa, has only
some temporary but no permanent
Jewish residents. S e n e g a 1 has
about 10 Jewish families in Dakar
who have no organizational or
educational facilities.

Then there is the oddity of
Jewish communities, mostly small
to be sure but larger than some
others who do maintain rabbis,
who for one reason or another re-
main rabbiless. The largest ol
these communities which has "no
ordained rabbis," as the pamphlet
informs us, is that ol Iran (Per-
sia), the classical land of Esther
and Mordecai, whose present
Jewish population numbers about
75,000 to 85,000. Most of the Jews
of Iran are among the poorest
Jews in the world. Yet they do
maintain synagogues, but have no
rabbis to lead them. Neither, by
the way, is there a Jewish press
in Iran.

Other Jewish communities
which have no rabBi, though their
size would indicate that they are
able to support one, are Spain, with
about 3,000 Jews, Portugal with
1,500, Paraguay with 1,500, Costa
Rica with about 300 families and
Bolivia with about 4,000. The
Kinedom of Libya in North Africa
has about 4,300 Jews (all Sephar-
dirii); the Jews there even have a
Day School in the city of Tripoli,

besides several synagogues, a Tal-
mud Torah and a chazan — but
no rabbi. Norway is another coun-
try for which no rabbi is listed
in the phamplet, though it con-
tains almost a thousand Jews
with two synagogues and one Jew-
ish afternoon school. Why all
these countries should be bereft of
a spiritual leader we can only
surmise, though in the case of
Spain it is almost certain that the
restrictions placed by the Franco-
Government upon flie open prac-
tice of non-Catholic religions is
the reason for it.

Perhaps the biggest surprise in
this regard, the absence of rabbis,
is the large JewisTi community of
Argentina with its 450,000 Jews.
Though it is true that Buenos
Aires with its 280,000 Jews has
many rabbis, we are told that out-
side the capital the remaining
1 70,000 Jews of Argentina do not
have a single spiritual leader, and
that includes such Jewish com-
munities as that ol Rosario (some
15,000), Cordoba (over 8,000),
and Santa Fe (over 4,000), in the
smaller communities, the pamph-
let reveals, even shochtim (ritual
slaughterers) and mohelim (ritual
circumcisers) are lacking. These
facts and figures would seem to
indicate that Jewish religious life
in Argentina is far weaker than
in other Jewish communities of
comparable size. England has the
same number of Jews as that of
Argentina - 450,000 (the London
and Buenos Aires Jewish popula-
tions too are about equal). Yet
there are many rabbis in small
Jewish communities all over Great
Britain.

Yet as regards Jewish education
the Jewish community of Argen-
tina seems to come off much better
than that of England. The Buenos
Aires Jewish Community pays

Jewish primary schools with a
total enrollment of about 10,000;
about 35 to 40 percent of all Jew-
ish children of school age attend
Jewish schools in Buenos Aires.
In England there are at present
38 Jewish primary (including
kindergarten) and second a r y
schools with a total enrollment of
about 7,000 pupils, about one in
every eight Jewish children of
school age, though there are in
addition a number of Jewish Sun-
day schools and Yeshivoth and a
certain number of Jewish children
are given some instruction by
youth movements. Yiddish culture
too — Yiddish newspapers, maga-
zines, book publishing houses —
is incomparably stronger in Ar-
gentina than in England, where
Yiddish culture has been in grad-
ual decline during the past two
generations.

So here are two important Jew-
ish communities in the world to-

day, one emphasizing secular Jew-
ishness, the other Jewish religi-
osity. In one important aspect,
however, the two communities are
similar; Both are among the best-
organized Jewish communities in
the world, Argentin a Jewry
through its "Daia" and British Jew-
ry through its Board of Deputies.
These all-embracing Jewish or-
ganizations are able to present a
united Jewish front to the world,
something which American Jewry
has not vet achieved.

My Boss Is a Part-Time Chaplain

By Patrick J. McGilXicuddy

Assistant to Part-Time Chaplain Norman M. Goldburg

My boss is the rabbi of a con-
gregation-plus. Maybe your rabbi
is, too, if he's a part-time chaplain
at some military post or Veterans
Administration Hospital. But you
may never knov.' it because the
275 part-time Jewish chaplains
serve with amazing self-efface-
ment sacrificial devotion, little fi-
nancial recompense and less pub-
lic recognition.

The boss insists on calling his
congregation-plus a "routine"' but
it's anything but that for him or
any other part-time Jewish chap-
lain who is a civilian rabbi with
responsibility to his own congre-
gation. Voluntaiilv these part-
time chaplains carry the addition-
al burden of bringing religious,
morale and personal services to
Jewish GIs and their families and
to hospitalized Jewish veterans at
posts and hospitals where no full-
time Jewish chaplains are assign-
ed.

The part-time chaplaincy, the
boss says, lends variety to his life

and adds spice to his congregation-
al and other community activities.
For the past eleven years he has
been part-time chaplain at Fort
Gordon, Ga., serving alone and
un-aided about half the time, and
the rest of the time with a regular
assigned Jewish chaplain. He's al-
so the Jewish chaplain at Lenwood
VA Hospital, Augusta, Ga., and
the Forest Hills Annex, which he
has covered tor eleven and six
years, respectively. For four years
he was also the part-time chaplain
at the "Bomb" plant — the Anti-
Aircraft Artillery of the Central
Savannah River Project, Aiken,
S. C. On the latter assignment he
travelled almost an hour each way
on a weekly visit. This A.A.A. in-
stallation, he always said, remind-
ed him of a military assignment
in a small post in Oregon during
World War II days. "I didn't have
a minyan," he said, "Why did they
send me there?"

I think he was exaggerating: he
likes to do that. At anv rate, I'll

Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller presented a New York Slate flag to
national leaders of Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Organization of America.
The flag, destined for Israel, was included in an "Avenue of American Flags"
at ceremonies for the dedication of the $25 million Hadassah-Hebrew Uni-
versity Medical Center at Kiryat Hadassah (Hadassah Town), of the west-
ern outskirts of Jerusalem, on August 3rd. The flag was taken to Israel by
the Hadassah Pilgrimage to Israel. Shown receiving the flag from Governor
Rockefeller is Mrs. Herman Shulman, former national president of Hadassah,
who headed the Hadassah Pilgrimage. Looking on is Dr. Miriam K. Freund,
national president of Hadassah.

answer for the tact that he had
few men of the Jewish faith at
the A.A.A. site. He couldn't con-
duct regular services. Neverthe-
less, he had regular conferences
with the boys. He made arrange-
ments for Sabbath and holiday
participation in Aiken and in
Augusta. He worked with the top
brass on the personal problems
which come to the fore in any and
every military or VA assignment.
He enjoyed most pleasant con-
tacts with the chaplains stationed
there.

From time to time, at A.A.A.
as at other installations, he at-
tended a Mass or a Protestant
service. The Catholic chaplain
gave him a beautiful Missal —
with English translation — and
the Rabbi liked to sit in a back
row of the chapel translating
Biblical passages from Latin to
English to Hebrew. He always
complained that the chaplain was
"davening" too fast.

The close association with the
chaplains resulted in an unusual
assignment which the Rabbi said
"took him back to the days of
his Army chaplaincy." The two
resident chaplains were scheduled
to be away from the post for a
period of two months. Catholic
boys were directed to go to Aiken
for religious services. The Protes-
tants had a service scheduled every
Sunday morning on Post, under
the direction of a sergeant-assist-
ant musician. The Jewish boys, of
course, had their weekly meetings
with the Rabbi.

"Would the Rabbi come over
on alternate Sunday mornings
and preach at the Protestant ser-
vice?" Certainly, he would and he
did. Fine, but would the Chaplain
come over earlier on Wednesdays
and give the "character-guidance"
lectures? Righto! He would and he
did, falling into the old military
routine once again.

Sometimes, he writes a letter to
JWB headquarters in New York,
asking for a "regular" chaplain to
be assigned to Fort Gordon. He
makes a good case. I ought to
know, I write the letters. "Come
on, now, Aryeh (Rabbi Aryeh
Lev, director ot JWB's Commis-
sion on Jewish Chaplaincy), I
can't handle this all by myself.
You know I got a congregation
of my own. Send us a regular
chaplain."

The part-time chaplains, like
those on full-time duty in all the
branches of the Armed Forces, are
recruited, endorsed and served by
JWB's Commission on Jewish
Chaplaincy, and together with
JWB's Armed Services Commit-
tees and USO-JWB workers cover
more than 600 military installa-
tions and hospitals in every corner
of the country.

When Rabbi Lev answers and
avoids the $64 question by telling
the Rabbi of the good reports
they are getting from Fort Gor-
don, from the Post chaplain and
from the CO., he purrs like a
kitten. "Well," he says in that
annoying ungrammatical way —
"They ain't a sending a chaplain
to Gordon. I reckon I'll have to go
right on handling it all by my-
self. Hmmm."

Yes, it takes considerable time
- but he's got it down to the es-
sentials. He preaches out there
two Friday evenings at 7 o'clock.
That's an hour and fifteen min-
utes before his own services in
town. He goes out during the week
for hospital calls and consulta-
tions. Sometimes, an emergency
calls him to the Fort for a third
time during the week. Sometimes,
when he is in a hurry, he asks for
and sets a "Militarv Police escort."
You'd think the top brass was
riding in from Washington when
this takes place. Oser! It's the
chaplain on a flying visit, sand-

wiching in an extra hour between
two non-military engagements.
His congregational religious
school is open to Army personnel
and he has recruited some fine
Sunday School teachers from Fort
Gordon. He tc-rlls his congregation
"We get some fine dividends from
the Fort."

They no longer have the "Disci-
plinary Barracks" at Fort Gordon,
but when they had, then he was
in his element. "An old prison
chaplain," he describes himself,
having served in that capacity at
Folsom Prison near Sacramento,
Calif., in his early days in the rab-
binate. He liked to work with
the prisoners and I do believe that
he was sorry to see his favorites
released.

What do you do with a guy
like the Chaplain? He does get
involved emotionally with the
soldiers, the prisoners and the
patients at the VA. Nothing is
routine as tar as he is concerned.

He likes the freedom he now
enjoys in taking military problems
right to the top. "Remember the
Army days, Patrick," he reminds
me, "when we used to go through
channels?" I remember them. He
found out, the hard way, that you
don't just walk in to see the
Colonel or the General.

Ah, but lie does walk in today.
He does phone directly to the
CO. or to the Chief of Staff, and
how he enjoys the new freedom.
He sits in the Post Chaplain's of-
fice discussing a particular prob-
lem. It is involved; it is diffi-
cult; it is likely to be fouled-up
somewhere along the line. Ulti-
mately, of course, it must be
brought to the attention of the
"front office."

I think the VA is his most very
special interest. At Lenwood VA
Hospital we have a number of
Jewish patients, somewhere be-
tween twenty and thirty at all
times. These men are veterans
of World War TI, mainly, plus a
few World War I casualties and
several Korea conflict men.

Here, too, it is difficult to hold
regular services for all the men.
The Chaplain finds it practicable
to schedule group meetings and
services in the various scattered
wards. Of course, there are men
at VA who are not in condition
to participate in services.

Occasionally, they fool you. For
example, at a holiday service when
the Rabbi was accompanied by a
little lady of the Sisterhood this
is what happened. The Sisterhood
gal questioned a patient, asking
him, pointedly, "What did the
Rabbi say." He looked her in the
eye and asked this question, "You
Avere there, weren't you?" She ad-
itted, somewhat disconcerted, that
she was. "Well," said the patient,
"he said the same thing to me that
he said to you."

A death among the old timers
who have been at Lenwood for
many years is like a death in the
congregation. As the chaplain says,
"You get to know these guys.
Sometimes you meet members of
the family (all to infrequently,
alas). The men confide in you.
You visit them quite often. In-
deed, you see them more often
than you see some members of
your own congregation.

"Bonds of friendship are
strengthened through the years.
You go with a man to staff meet-
ings. You have consultations with
his doctors. You discuss the mat-
ter of transfer, of trial visits at
home, of discharge from the hos-
pital.

"Sometimes you accompany a
patient you have known so pleas-
antly in life, to his last resting
place — and read the funeral
service.

"Oh, yes, your rabbinical duties
are extended far beyond the con-
fines of the congregation and the
general community when you do
chaplaincy work. You have a com-
mitment — that's the right word
— when you undertake to minister
to patients at a VA installation."

"And don't think," the Rabbi
reminds me, "that you are minis-
tering only to Jewish personnel."
He is available for the Sunday
preaching schedule when one of
the regular chaplains is ill, in-
disposed or out of the city. He
preaches, from time to time, and
the service he conducts is remini-
scent of the "general" service and
sermon that has an appeal to ALL
men of all faiths. Also, every
Tuesday morning he conducts a
devotional service on the hospital
radio hook-up.

He relishes an invitation to
preach to VA patients. They are,
he claims, most discriminating.

He is so keen about his work
in Augusta because it is, as he
says, "a wonderful congregation-
plus." The people in the congre-
gation understood the great need
which exists in local military and
VA installations. Many of them,
men and women, serve as volun-
teer workers in all of the local
military and VA facilities.

And because the members of the
Rabbi's civilian congregation —
the Walton Way Temple in Au-
gusta — have this warm interest
and understanding, they are never
critical about the hours their
Rabbi spends with soldiers and
patients.

The congregation invites the
participation of the military at re-
ligious and social functions. Often,
patients from the VA and workers
and officials come to the services.
Psychiatrists and other staff mem-
bers belong to the Rabbi's con-
gregation. Holiday services and
Passover seders are crowded with
visitors from military and VA in-
stallations.

It is this fine cooperative spirit
which makes it possible for the
boss to work a lew hours each
week at the various installations
in and near Augusta. "Variety is
the spice of life!" he likes to say
and. when he says it, I know ex-
actly what he is driving at. He is
saying "Life is interesting down
here in Dixie. It's a fine congrega-
tion — a wonderful community —

and there's an opportunity to re-
live the pleasant military ex-
periences of the war days by con-
tinuing to serve the 'boys' as their
part-time chaplain."

I guess he has been on the JWB
Chaplaincy rolls tor more than
twenty-five years. Shea Schwartz
introduced him to the Army Chap-
laincy in 1934 in San Francisco.
The Rabbi has always been senti-
mental about Shea who guided the
destiny of [ewish chaplains. Arm-
ed Services workers and civilian
\olunteers during the early days
of World War II in California and
the Northwest. Working with
JWB personnel has always been
a source of pleasure and satisfac-
tion to him. He numbers many of
1 lie JWB "workers," as he calls
them, among his intimate friends.
He haunts jWB's national office
in New York on his rare trips to
the bio citv. He maintains close
telephone contact with the region-
al Armed Services office in At-
lanta, presided over by his "cousin,
Leon Goldberg", and he goes to
Atlanta whenever he can find the

A favorite "gripe" of his has
to do with JWB. "It doesn't re-
ceive the support it deserves from
the American Jewish community,"
he maintains. "There is no more
important organization. No Jew-
ish institution has served Ameri-
can Jewry with greater dedica-
tion." Now, he Begins to warm up
to the theme — "How come we
raise millions for charity and mil-
lions for defense agencies — and
cannot make adequate provision
ior the one American Jewish or-
ganization which cuts across re-
ligious lines, across all partisan

lines, which serves partically every
Jewish family in the United
States?"

"Patrick," he pounds the table
to get my attention — "Isn't JWB
a perfect combination of true phil-
anthropic and so-called defense
work. Isn't it the greatest?" Well,
I'm not going to report the speech
in detail. This gives you a little
of his attitude toward the organi-
zation to which he has a singular
attachment — Take it from me.

The School That Lived In Boxes

By Irene Myerson

This is a story of a Jewish day
school which began life living out
of a collection of boxes and which
graduated some eight years into
a handsome fully-equipped build-
ing near Asbury Park, New
Jersey.

The beginning was a meeting
in Deal, N. J., in April 1951 of a
small group of individuals, rabbis
and community leaders of the
area organized by Rabbi Morris
Schmidman of Congregation Sons
of Israel of Asbury Park. Attend-
ing was representative of Torah
Umesorah, the national socjiety
for Jewish day schools. The par-
ticipants organized the Hillel
Academy of the Shore area. One
month later, seven children were
prepared for the first grade for
the coming September. All that
was lacking was classrooms, facil-
ities and money.

The first home of the Orthodox
school was the Jewish Community
Center, a former hospital. As the
story was told by Principal Jacob
Mermelstein in The Jewish Pai-
ent, everybody joined in convert-
ing closets into offices, a coal
shed into a library and in pro-
viding exits and partitions.

This was an annual job be-
cause each year meant another
grade requiring at least another
room. The dark and rundown
building was transformed by lov-
ing labor. Women who had their
cleaning done at home by maids
helped to scrub floors and wash
windows. Furniture was provided
on a similarly informal basis. As
Rabbi Mermelstein put it, "no
child could mistake another's
desk for his own; there were hard-
ly two alike."

Educational services were do-
nated, cajoled, solicited. These
included the services of pedia-
tricians, dentists, optometrists,
psychologists and much more —
"all were given freely for our
children."

Then came the first blow: the
local housing authority needed
the land and the building was
sold in 1957. Two weeks before
school opening the school, despite
frantic searching, was still with-
out a home. The haphazard col-
lection of furniture was still
stored in the corrugated card-
board boxes which had previous-
ly served as furniture and storage
containers in the classrooms.

Congregation Sons of Israel in
Asbury Park offered their com-

Katz presented a plaque to Mrs.

youth work. The fellowship was
established in memory of the late
Mr. Leschen, long: a leader in civic
and Jewish affairs in the New York
area.

munity house. Into its six tiny
rooms would have to go eight
grades and 100 children. There-
was no alternative, so the school
moved into the community house,
formerly a private home. Halls
and pantries were converted into
offices, kitchens into storerooms,
the second sanctuary became a
kindergarten, the vestry became a
lunchroom and the sunporch a
classroom.

Volunteer labor was again the
mainstay of the hasty conversion.
Yet despite the difficulties and
the inadequate facilities, "we did
not lose a single child," says
Rabbi Mermelstein. "Even those
who were ideologically opposed
to the day school — they came,
they saw, they helped. . . ."

"And always the boxes. The
rooms could hardly hold the chil-
dren." But the boxes were furni-
ture as well as storage facilities.
Life at the Hillel School settled
down to its own weird kind of
normalcy. Then came the new
blow. In the nation-wide furore
which followed the disasterous
Chicago school fire, inspection of
schools were ordered everywhere.
In Asbury Park, the Community
House was condemned and barred
lor school use.

Another urgent hunt followed
and consideration turned to an
offer by the city of its solarium
buildings on the boardwalk, next
to the ocean. Built on a terrace,
the two buildings consisted of a
roof and four walls of glass each.
There was no water, no toilet
facilities and a separation of 100
yards between the two structures.

So they moved in with the
boxes. Partitions were hastily
erected to provide classroom
space. Passers-by started in amaze-
ment at the school activities in
the glass houses. In the winter,
howling winds buffeted pupils
and teachers as they went to the
North Solarium for lunch and
back to the South Solarium for
classes.

The heat, donated by the city,
unfortunately did not come up
before 11 a.m. from 8:30 in the

morning until 11, children, teach-
ers and staff sat in coats and
shivered. When the heat did
come, it poured in. Long-unused
valves could not be manipulated
to control the heat.

When the weather became
warm, it brought relief from such
temperature problems but it also
brought a merry-go-round of con-
ventions, and picnics. Reported
Rabbi Mermelstein: "they all
came, looked in, took pictures
of us."

Eventually there developed a
firm determination to provide a
permanent home for the school.
Congregation Sons of Israel prom-
ised 135,000 if supporters and of-
ficials of the school, led by Presi-
dent Zimel Resnick and Treasurer
Jacob Kasfiner, could raise an ad-
ditional 140,000.

The effort was started. "Money
came in, support was found.
Where we expected $400 they
gave us $4,000. Men who were
alien to the 'parochial school'
came in, helped, gave and made
others give. Eventually .$150,000
was pledged. Plans were cut to
fit the funds: Five classrooms,
maybe six. No auditorium."

Normal bids of $200,000 and
$220,000 came in for the job.
Fantastically enough, an accept-
able bid was received of $150,000.

The troubles were not over. A
suitable site was found but a
zoning battle developed. Then,
as the various details of actual
construction unfolded — hamper-
ed by a building strike — it be-
came clear that the new building
would not be ready lor the fall
school term opening. Once again
a frantic search. This time Tem-
ple Beth El offered use of its
school building on condition the
rooms were cleared after each
session for the Temple's after-
noon classes.

So again, Rabbi Mermelstein re-
ported, it was "back to boxes."
There was no playground, not
enough school hours, an "entire
block to walk to a lunchroom."

In December, the Hillel School
moved at long last into its own
home. "We burned the boxes out-
side our new building. The flames
lit up the building. It was a beau-

tiful sight. Solid brick, enough

Nothing left to worry about
but the annual budget and it is
a safe prediction that the courage
and dedication which survived

and triumphed over such incred-
ible odds would be adequate to
deal with such a comparatively
normal problem.

Another prediction might be-
that while such qualities are be-
ing made manifest in the life of
American Jewry, that Jewry still
has a bright future.

The American Jew

A Partial Profile

By Joshua Able

The Bible commentary, "As ye
sow, so shall ye reap," seems to ap-
ply with particular accuracy to
the amount of unbiased and pro-
fessional investigation devoted by
American Jews to themselves in
all their various aspects. The sow-
ing is usually scanty and the reap-
ing likewise.

It was a thin crop again during
the Jewis Year of 5720 - a total of
four publicized reports, two of
them dealing with the American
Jewish family, one with the prob-
lem of intermarriage and one with
historical changes in the birth-
places of American Jews.

The most striking finding to
emerge in the reports was that
American Jews sho- "disturbingly
low fertility even in the period of
the baby boom and regardless of
occupational differences." This
was reported by Dr. Joshua A.
Fishman, director of research at
the University of Pennsylvania
Albert M. Greenfield Center for
Human Relations.

Addressing the National Con-
ference of Jewish Communal Ser-
vices, Dr. Fishman reported on a
'959 survey of American Jews.
The fertility rate among them, he
said, was less than 80 per cent
of the national average.

Dr. Fishman also found that
American Jews continued to clump
themselves into areas of high ur-
ban concentration and that in-
termarriage was relatively low, 7,2
per cent. If American Tews were
not reproducing themselves in
adequate numbers, at least those
who were being added to the com-
munity via the cradle were mar-
rying among themselves and stav-
ing in the community.

The sociologist also reported
that the average annual income of
the American Tew was just under
$6,000 and that a little more than
one out of everv five heads of
Tewish households was a college
graduate. Six out of everv ten

were high school graduates. Three
out of four American Jewish wage-
eairners held white collar jobs
with a large ratio of professionals.

Many of Dr. Fishman's findings
were in accord with those in an
earlier report on the American
Jewish family published by the
Anti-Defamation League of B'nai
B'rith. The ADL found that near-
ly nine out of ten American Jews
over the age of 14 lived in urban-
ized areas compared with 50 per
cent lor Catholics and about 25
per cent lor white Protestants.

The ADL also reported that the
American Jewish family is smal-
ler than Catholic and Protestant
families and that Jewish parents
on the average are somewhat old-
er. Total marriage rates were
found to be higher and divorce
rates lower for American Jews
than for the general population.
Juvenile delinquency rates were
found lower among Jewish adole-
scents and the rate of alcoholism
among American Jews continued
to be low.

A comparison of Dr. Fisliman's
findings and those of Rabbi
Richard L. Rubinstein, director of
the B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation
at the University of Pittsburgh.

To commemorate the 75th birth-
da;/ of Sidney G. Kusworm, Sr., a
Youth Fellowship is being establish-
ed by B'nai B'rith with which he
has been associated for 54 years.

on intermarriage among Ameri-
can Jews, indicated a difference
of data, although Rabbi Rubin-
stein dealt only with the problem
among college students.

The rabbi, spealdng at a two-
day conference on the subject con-
vened by the Theodor Harzel In-
stitute in New York City, said
that intermarriage seemed to be
increasing rapidly among Jewish
college students. He said that the
single biggest reason for requests
he received for advice from stu-
dents was for guidance about prob-
lems involving marriage with non-
Jews. He reported that intermar-
riage was most likely to occur at
the graduate and professional
school level.

The impact of the ending of
large-scale Jewish migration to the
United States in the twenties was
highlighted in data published in
the American Jewish Year Book.

The data showed that the propor
tion of American-born Jews in the
total American Jewish population
rose from one in three in 1900 to
eight in ten in i960. The number
of American Jews grew in those
six decades from around one mil-
lion to the present estimated five
and a half million. ,

The data also showed that if
the fertility rate has dropped
among American Jews in respect
to population, it definitely has
not in regard to organizational
expansion. In the six decades since
1900, the number of national Jew-
ish groups in the United States
jumped from 20 to 200 — a 2,000
per cent increase. Thus has been
expressed the multiple interests of
a growingly affluent and secure
American Jewry in culture, edu-
cation, religion, community rela-
tions, overseas aid, social welfare,
fraternal and mutual benefits,
Zionism and Israel.

Research al the Weizmann Institute

By Michael Bar Zohar

The scope of research at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel has
greatly extended in recent years. In this article, an Israel science writer re-
views the 1958-59 Report of Rehovoth's Research Center. — THE EDITOR.

The International Conference
on Science in the Advancement of
New States, now in session at the
Weizmann Institute is the crown-
ing feature in a long series of
scientific activities and events
which have been taking place at
the world-famed research center
during the past two year.

Scientific inquiry has developed
in new fields and in this period
has encompassed almost 200 pro-
jects in various "branches of funda-
mental research.

A significant role in this scien-
tific effort was performed by the
electronic computer at the Insti-
tute, which worked on a 24-hour
daily basis throughout the year.
At the same time as the computer
completed over 20,000 working
hours since it began operating in
April 1958, its teams have been
able to develop new mathematical
and technical methods which have
improved the efficiency and out-
put of the "electronic brain" con-
siderablv.

As a result of such improved
systems, the members of the In-
stitute's Applied Mathematics De-
partment and other units have
taken a foremost place in the
world of science in relation to a
number of research projects.

Scientists in that department,
under the leadership of Prof.
Chaim Leib Perkeris, one of the
world's foremost mathematicians,
have just completed a three-year
study of the problem of ocean
tides which has baffled mathema-
ticians since 1775 — a year before
the American Revolutionary War
broke out.

The investigation was started in
1957, and after the computer be-
gan working in April 19^8, its
programming team developed
methods of harnessing it to the
task of handling the complex com-
putations required for the ocean-
tides problem.

Prof. Pekeris felt that with
ocean depths nowadavs reasonably
well fathomed, except for the

Arctic regions, it should be pos-
sible to predict mathematically
the height of the tide along the
whole coast.

The foundations of tidal theory
were laid over 150 years ago by
the French mathematician, the
Marquis Pierre de Laplace, yet
the problem was so abstruse that
no one had succeeded in predict-
ing the height of the tide at a
single port on the basis of theory
alone. No one, that is, until Prof.
Pekeris and his associates began
their concerted attack on the prob-
lem. In the latter part of Inly
1960, Prof. Pekeris announced
the results of the three-vear project
in a paper which he read at the
meeting of the International
Union of Geodesy and Geophysics
held in Helsinki. Finland.

As a result of the Rehovotli
group's investigations, significant
inferences have been developed on
the earth's internal constitution.

Secrets of the Atom

The secrets oi the atom, from
a different aj:>proach, were studied
in other departments at the In-
stitute during the two-year period.

The Department of Nuclear
Physics, headed by Prof. Amos de
Shalit, carried out a series of
theoretical studies in nuclear
structure. As a result of this re-
search at the Weizmann Institute,
they clarified and confirmed cer-
tain approaches and calculations
undertaken at other n u c 1 e a r
physics institutes in the world.

Several men in the department
are working on problems concern-
ed with primary cosmic radiation
and the nuclear interactions of
various elementary particles with
atomic nuclei.

The report says: "An attempt to
measure these quantities (cosmic
tadiation and its energy spectrum)
is being made in our laboratory,
by studying the tracks of the pri-
mary cosmic radiation particles
produced in nuclear photographic
emulsion stacks flown bv balloons
to the top of the atmosphere. The
analysis is being done by use of
high-power precision nuclear track
microscopes."

The Isotopes Department, now
in more spacious premises in the

Institute of Nuclear Science, where
it has 21 laboratories for its work,
has continued its research on the
preparation and separation of
various isotopes, the determina-
tion of their properties, and their
practical application, as well as
their use in various research pro-
grams.

They also continued work on
the tracing of ground water with
the aid of radioisotopes in con-
junction with Tahal, the Israel
Water Planning Authority. A
water seepage study from reser-
voirs was also undertaken.

Plant Gentics Studies
Another study of practical im-
portance and value to Israel agri-
culture was undertaken in the
Section of Plant Genetics under
Dr. Ezra Galun. Although the
scientists of this section devote
considerable time and attention to
pure research, they also helped to
develop new varieties of fruit and
vegetables, which will bring about
larger crops of higher quality.

Breeding for resistance to a
number of plant diseases in cu-
cumbers, melons, and peanuts was
also carried on bv this Section.
After several years of breeding,
the first commercial hvbrid cu-

Dr. Bernard Bergman, spiritual
leader of the Riverside Jewish Cen-
ter and a member of the Executive
Board of the llabbinical Council of
America, was elected president of
the Religions Zionists of America
at its Golden Jubilee Convention in
Atlantic City.

cumber seeds were tested for yield

signficant advantages over stan-
dard varieties in respect to both
of these characteristics.

Another fruit grown in Israel,
the avocado pear, was the subject
of research in the Institute's De-
partment of Experimental Biol-
ogy. The discovery that mannohe-
ptulose — a sugar found in avo-
cado pears — induces a temporary
diabetes-like condition when in-
jected into animals, was made
some years ago. Evidence has now
been obtained in the department
by Prof. Ernst Simon that this
sugar can be "phosphorylated" by
a special enzyme system in a man-
ner similar to what happens with
glucose and other sugars. This
may prove to "Be an important
step in the elucidation of its

Cancer Causation Research

Fundamental research in the
problem of cancer-causation and
its mechanism has been going on
in the Department of Experiment-
al Biology for the past ten years
under the direction of Prof. Isaac
Berenblum.

Three sections in the depart-
ment dealt with cancer research—
the mechanism of tumor induc-
tion, tumor viruses and genetics,
and radiobiology and immunologi-
cal aspects of cancer: and three
others with endocrine and repro-
duction physiology and harmone
research, neuro-physiology and
pharmacology, and sugar metabol-

It would be difficult in a brief
survey to include the numerous
projects being done in the Insti-
tute's ten departments and four
sections which engage in applied
mathefatics, nuclear physics, nu-
clear chemistry, organic chemistry,
polymer science, biophysics, ex-
permental biology, and electron-
ics. Suffice it to say that they are
contributions to the fundamental
knowledge of mankind.

The Weizmann Institute's scien-
tists have gone beyond the sphere
of research and are now also
teaching. The Graduate School in
the Natural Sciences, opened in
October 1958, now has a student
body of nearly 80 holders of the
Master of Science degree, who are
working for their Ph.Ds. These
are the future scientists of Israel.

During the past two years there
have been several Symposiums
which have brought eminent scien-
tists to the Weizmann Institute
from all parts of the world. They
were held in the subjects of can-
cer causation, physics, mathemat-
ics, and organic chemistry.

Eminent scientists from various
parts of the world are gathered at
Rehovoth to discuss how science
and technology can be harnessed
to the development of the emer-
gent new states of Africa and Asia.
The International Conference, of
which the chairman is Mr. Abba
Eban, Minister of Education and
Culture in the Israel Government
and President of the Weizmann
Institute, will demonstrate how
this dynamic country is contribut-
ing in a measure far beyond its
size to human progress.

Israel's Atomic Reactor

By Philip Gillon

Israel's Nuclear Reactor was
activated ('""because critical") to-
wards the end of June, i960. The
activation was achieved without
any untoward incident and the
Reactor is expected to reach an
output of 1,000 kilowatts by the
end of this year.

The Reactor is designed for ex-
periments involving radio-activity
and will be used by the scientists
of the Atomic Energy Commission,
the Weizmann Institute, the He-
brew University and the Haifa
Technion. It will be used for re-
search only and not for the supply
of power. The fuel elements, con-
sisting of "enriched Uranium" or
Uranium 235, were supplied by
the United States as part of Presi-

dent Eisenhower's program to
acquaint newly liberated lands
wdth the principles of nuclear
energy.

The bieak-up of the fuel ele-
ments through fission react i .n
produces both heat and radiation:
a power station powered by atomic
energy uses the heat generated
just as a normal power station
uses the heat produced by burning

coal or petroleum. A research
reactor is "open" and uses only
the radiation. Nevertheless gigan-
tic shields are essential to prevent
the slightest danger of radio-active
leakage.

The site of the reactor was
chosen so that there could be no
possible danger to man, water or
cultivated soil. It stands close to
the sea, on a lonely stretch of
dunes West of the village of
Yavneh, where Joachnum ben
Zakaai founded his famous Aca-
demy of Learning nearly two thou-
sand years ago. It is perhaps fit-
ting that this mighty tool of
science should be at the same site.

From the point of view of isola-
tion the setting is certainly ideal;
Robinson Crusoe himself did not
enjoy such solitude. On .ill sides
stietch the lonely and desolate
dunes. The Reactor was placed
near the sea because the flow of
underground water in Israel for
a distance of 5 kilometers from the
.'hore is towards the sea, while
further East it How-, inland, if
the underground water should be-
come radioactive the infected
water will flow harmlessly into
the ocean.

A gaunt grey, concrete structure
dominates one of the dunes, its
sides a series of fluted panels and
its crown a great dome. The en-
trance of this formidable temple
of scientific worship is through
two great doors in the concrete
wall that remind one somehow of
the entry into a prison.

But once inside the building,
one finds, somewhat surprisingly,
light and charm in the laborato-
ries that lie between the entrance
and the Reactor itself. There is
a wall of glass and a gracious
courtyard, with aesthetically
shaped columns rising from nar-
row bases. In the floor of each

the village of Yavneh, in the Weia-

laboratory are several sealed vent-
holes to a tunnel which runs un-
derneath them; through these
holes the laboratories will receive
electricity, gas and whatever utili-
ties they may recquire.

A door from the laboratories
area leads to a vast room housing
the "swimming pool" containing
the Reactor. Twenty-one meters
above is the ceiling of the dome:
high up near the top is a great
beam designed to support a twelve-
ton crane.

The "swimming pool" is a con-
crete tube which contains a col-
umn of water seven meters in
height. The Reactor itself, the
holy of holies, is only 60 cms. high
and is at the bottom of the pool.
Radio-activity is gradually absorb-
ed as it passes upward through the
water: at the top of the column
there is no radiation at all and
men can work there in safety. The
concrete walls are 1.80 meters
thick and are made of a special
heavy concrete containing barium
sulphate stone imported from It-
aly: the resulting mixture is one
and one half times as heavy as
ordinary concrete and has never
before been used in Israel. The
giant slab of cement was cast non-
stop for loo hours under vibra-
tion.

Inside the concrete wall, near
the base, are two eight inch holes
and four six inch holes through
which the scientists can draw off
supplies of radio-activity for their
experiments. The fuel itself
weighs only about two kilograms
but a time comes when it has to
be renewed; it remains radio-ac
tive for six months after burn-up.
To remove those two kilograms
from the pool the crane lowers
an eight-ton shield of lead through
the water andTthe fuel is extracted
under this guard to be sent to the
United States for renewal.

head of the Weizmann Institute's
Department of Isotope Research,

WHEN YOUR INCOME STOPS!

Few men like to think of what would happen to their
families if their income would stop. If you should die
prematurely, your family would be faced with this
problem. First of all, they would need a cash sum of
money to pay your outstanding bills, your final ex-
penses, the mortgage on your home, etc. They would
then need an income for a definite period of time to
readjust themselves. This financial problem which
your family would face in the event of your prema-
ture death can be solved with our Family Income
policy. You can provide a definite sum of money to
clean up your outstanding bills and leave your family
a monthly income of $100 or $200 or more a month
for one year, two years, or longer period of time.
Should you live, this same plan guarantees an income
to you when old age stops your earning ability. Why
not put your dollars to work now and save for the
future the Life Insurance Way?

jects Division of Israel's Ministry
of Defense. He is also Director
of Research of Israel's Atomic
Energy Commission. Dr. Dostrov-
sky will determine the work to be
done at the Reactor. Another
Weizmann Institute scientist, Dr.
Israel Pelah, will serve as the
Scientific Director of the Reactor.
According to Dr. Pelah, the React-
or will work 24 hours a day and
will be "cleaned" every ten days.

Israel will use the reactor in
several ways. One of the primary
purposes is to train a generation
of scientists completely familiar
with reactors. Research will be
both pure and applied. Among ap-
plied research projects that will
be facilitated are tests of materials,
welds and castings. Israel is also
interested in the production of iso-
topes for medical purposes. Every
isotope has a certain life expecta-
tation; its "half-life" is the point
at which half its radio-activity dis-
appears. The isotope of cobalt
used in the treatment of cancer,
has a "halfTife" of five years
and obviously Israel cannot pro-
duce cobalt in competition with
America. But- there are other
isotopes which have a "Iialf-life"
of a few days which can be ad-
vantageously produced in this
small country: some of these are
of considerable medical import-
ance as they can be left in the
body.

Another m a j o 1 investigation
will be into the effects of radiation
on plastics and the production of
new plastics. Radiation changes
the gene structure and new desir-
able qualities can be introduced
into plants. The Americans, for
instance, have produced corn con-
taining sugar instead of starch.
Plants can be made disease-resist-
ant and sprouting of potatoes or
decomposition ol meat delayed.
Pests may be eradicated. In Cen-
tral America a certain insect was
wiped out by radiation because
the females mated only once and
the males (the weaker sex) became

sterile after being subjected to a
small amount of radiation. Food-
stuffs can be preserved.

Among pure research projects
will be the investigation of the
structure of the atom and of
crystals and the location of single
atoms and molecules.

"Science is largely playing
around," says Dr. Bergman, Chief
of the Atomic Energy Commission
of Israel, "And Israel's scientists
are thrilled to have a chance to
play."

The Reactor was designed by
American architect Philip John-
son. A young Israeli, Gideon
jZiv, was sent to work with him.
|The reactor parts were supplied
jjby the American Machinery and
Foundry which has built several
research reactors in various parts
of the world. Part of the electron-
ics equipment was made in Israel.
The total cost, including the road
and other development, is just
over 83,000,000 towards which
sum the United States contributed
8350,000 under the Eisenhower
program.

Israel is a small country with
limited natural resources. When
the W e i zm a n n Institute was
founded, the late Dr. Chaim
Weizmann stressed the role that
science can take in making sub-
stitutes or synthetics in place of
raw materials. The completion of
the Reactor marks a giant stride
in the effort of Israel's voting
scientists to use the genius of Man
to overcome a hostile environ-
ment. With Israel in such close
contact with newly-liberated coun-
tries in Africa and Asia, the
"Atoms for Peace Program" can
be expected to help these other
emergent nations.

Miracle In Manila

By George Perry

As worshippers enter Temple
Emil, on Taft Avenue in Manila,
for Rosh Rosh Hashanah services,
they will also be observing the
Bar Mitzvah year of the "miracle
of Manila." This is how the Jews
of the Republic of the Philip-
pines regarded the restoration of
the only synagogue destroyed in
battle on American territory dur-
ing World War II. For Temple
Emil — the only synagogue in the
Philippines as well as in the whole
Western Pacific — was rebuilt
through the efforts of thousands
of Jewish GIs who had helped
liberate the Pilippines from the
Japanese.

In the lobby of this synagogue
is a modest plaque dedicated "to
all men and women of the Jewish
faith of the Armed Forces of the
United States and Allied Nations
who laid down their lives in the
defense and liberation of the
Philippines — 1941-1945— and in
tribute to the American Jewish
service personnel stationed in the
Philippines who initiated the
drive to assist the local community
in the expenses of reconstruction."

These simple words axe the
final chapter of a story that be-
gan in 1942 when the Japanese
drove the last American for
out of the Philippines. There were
then about 1,800 Jews in the Phil-
ippines. More than 1,300 were ref-
ugees from Germany. The others
were American, British, French
and some from Syria, Turkey and
China. The leaders of the Jewish
community were Rabbi Joseph
Schwartz, a refugee who had been
a chaplain in the Austrian Army
in World War I, and Morton
Netzorg, director ol the National
Jewish Welfare Board's Army and
Navy Department for the Philip-
pines.

The Japanese conquerors im-
mediately interned all Jews who
were nationals of countries at war
with Japan. The German- Jewish
refugees, who had arrived in the
mid-i 930's had German passports
stamped "Jude', in red ink. At
first the Japanese regarded them

as Germans and treated them as
semi-allies. Thus the refugees
who had earlier been welcomed
by the other Jews were able to
aid their co-reliarionists with food

and medicine. Gradually, the Jap-
anese changed their attitude and
treated all Jews as enemies.

Rabbi Schwartz was one of the
few who escaped interment. All
during the Japanese occupation
he continued to hold services in
an abondoned building under the
watchful eyes of Japanese officers.
But Netzorg and his wife, who
had come to Manila in 1915 from
Detroit as honeymooners, were put
in the dreaded Santo Tomas
Camp. Their son David, who had
been teaching at the University
of Nebraska, was visiting them
when the war broke out and he
joined the U. S. Army Engineers.
He was asigned to Bataan where
he was captured and later died
in the Capas Prison, a victim of
the infamous 'death march'.

When American troops landed
on Leyte in October 1944, the
Japanese ordered all Jews not in-
terned to leave Manila. Temple
Emil's community hall was con-
verted into an ammunition dump.

touched off the stores of evplosives
in Temple Emil's community hall
and blew the synagogue and com-
munity house to rubble. Only the
walls of the synagogue were stand-
ing when American and Filipino
forces re-occupied the city.

Immediately after his release
from Santo Tomas Prison, Netzorg
became the head of the Jewish
community . His first task was
to provide shelter, food, clothing
and other necessities for the desti-
tute Jewish residents. With the
aid of an emergency grant of $10,-
000 from the Joint Distribution
Committee, Netzorg began the
task of reorganization. Supplies
flown in by the National Jewish
Welfare Board and brought in by
the Jewish chaplains who accom-
panied the American forces en-
abled Netzorg to organize a huge
Seder for civilians and military
personnel. Jewish servicemen co-
operated magnificently in aiding
the civilian Jews. They organized
classes, clubs, lectures in the USO-
fWB club opened under Netzorg's
direction. The Jewish chaplains
became a tower of strength to the
reviving Jewish community.

Inspired by the leadership of
Netzorg and the Jewish chaplains,
the Jewish GIs' assembled for an
open air religious service amid
the ruins of Temple Emil and
pledged themselves to rebuild the
synagogue as a memorial to their
comrades who diedin the Pacific.
With the enthusiastic backing of
Chaplains Dudley Weinberg, Col-
man Zwitman, Samuel Silver, Al-
bert Gordon, Perry Nussbaum, A.
Herbert Fedder, Robert I. Kahn,
David Meltzer, Jack Levy, Jacob

paign was organized throughout
the Pacific.

GIs emptied their pockets, con-
tributed in memory of a father
or mother or the safe return of a
brother from the war. Relatives
at home sent in donations in a
steady stream. Non- Jewish service-
men and officers rallied to the
drive. In less than a month more
than $20,000 was raised by the
committee headed by Chaplain
Zwitman. The money was turned
over to Netzorg as president of
the Jewish community who placed
it in trust with the JDC. The
civilian Jewish community raised
a matching sum.

When the rebuilt Temple Emil
was dedicated in 1947, Netzorg
was not among the congregation.
He had died in October 1946 in
Walter Reed Hospital, Washing-
ton, D. C, probably from the
after-effects of his imprisonment
in Manila and his refusal to give
up his work with the Jewish com-
munity and GIs after his release.

The dedication of the rebuilt
Temple Emil came one year after
the Republic of Philippines be-
came independent. But Jewish
history in the Philippines goes
back to the 16th century. An In-
quisition tribunal functioned
there in 1590 and there are eight
known cases of Marranos who
were deported to Mexico for
punishment. There are still some
Philipino families who trace their
ancestry back to these Marranos.

A later settlement was made in
the 1840s by Jews from Alsace-
Lorraine. After the United States
acquired the Philippines as a re-
sult of the Spanish-American War
in 1898, a number of Jews who
had served with the American
Army stayed on and were joined
by co-religionists from the States
and from Russia, by Sephardim
from the Middle East and the

The American Jeivish TIMES-OUTLOOK

80 Years of Technical Assistance

By Dr. William Haber

Next month in London, dele-
gates from Jewish communities in
25 countries will assemble to cele-
brate the eightieth anniversary of
ORT, Organization for Rehabili-
tation through Training, one of
the oldest welfare agencies in Jew-
ish life.

The year of ORT's founding in
1880 in Czarist Russia seems locat-
ed in the far distant past. But it
is not so much a matter of the
length of the time span that gives
it remoteness, as of the fullness of
events which have effectively trans-
formed the world during these
intervening decades.

Yet, eight decades ago, the ante-
cedents of the great majority of
todays American Jews lived in
Eastern Europe. Nor was the size
of this population much less than
that of the present American com-
munity. But the conditions of life
differed drastically.

All but a few select categories
of Jews were restricted to the
crowded towns and villages of the
Pale of Settlement. Nor were they
free to live as they chose within
this vast ghetto. In a predominat-
y agricultural society, they were
barred from land ownership. In
what was still a handicraft society,
they were excluded from man)
trades. ?

The world celebrated by Sholom
Aleichem and I. L. Peretz was a
place of destitution. Jewish eco-
nomic activity was burdened by
legal oppression and discrimina-
tion. Jews were forced into margin-
al occupations. A few were artis-
ans. Most, like Tuvye the Dairy-
man, were "luftmenschen," ped-
dlers, innkeepers, petty tradesmen.
Large numbers were paupers on
the edge of "chronic hunger.

But if the material side was
bleak, the spiritual existence of
the "shied" was often vivid and
creative. Toward the latter half
of the century a fresh spirit was
abroad within the ghetto confines.
The movement known as the
Haskala, or Enlightenment, stir-
red a new ferment of intellectual

excitement, stimulating a desire
to action for equal rights and Jew-
ish emancipation.

At the same time, the tradition-
al economy, poor as it was, was
being battered by powerful forces
of economic modernization, as the
industrial revolution spread east-
ward. The small-town pattern of
Jewish life was undergoing the
dislocation of change. The times
called for new approaches to the
social problems of the age.

The idea of ameliorating the
extremes of Jewish poverty
through rendering more people
economically productive had long
been propagated by a few leaders
of the community. In 1880, a
group of Jewish industralists and
intellectuals of St. Petersburg
petitioned the Czar for the privi-
lege of establishing a fund for the
purpose of "developing artisanal
and agricultural occupations
among the mass of our co-religion-
ists," which became known as
ORT.

Creation of a vocational train-
ing agency for the Jewish people
was part of the modernization pro-
cess of Eastern European Jewry.

The Board of Directors of the
Jewish Agency for Israel, Inc. has
invited Dr. Isador Lubin, distin-
guished economist, sdmlnistrator and
expert in government and interna-
tional affairs, to organize its Jeru-
salem Representative office, it was
announced by Dewey D. Stone,
Chairman of the Board.

By undertaking a task that is
customarily the function of gov-
ernments, the community was ex-
pressing, in this as in so many
other welfare areas, the principle
of self-help which has such pro-
found and creative roots in the
Jewish past.

While that world of 80 years
ago has vanished, the need for
vocational aid, for trade schools
and training in technical skills,
has acquired heightened relevance.
Through two world wars and their
aftermaths, such programs have
proven to be powerful aids for
human reconstruction, for re-
kindling hope and the ability to
work, learn and be productive
once more.

But it is the continuing tech-
nological revolution of our age
that has given particular immedi-
acy to this program. In Israel vo-
cational training has obvious sig-
nificance for the economic integra-
tion of its newcomers, the majority
of them from underdeveloped so-
cieties. Equally, the formation of
skilled manpower to operate the
emerging industries of Israel, calls
for an expanding program of trade
and technical schools. And so,
ORT has had its most extensive
development in Israel. Technical
training centers are operated in
•j2 localities throughout the land,
with an annual enrollment of al-
most 10,000.

In the Moslem lands of North
Africa and Iran, a half-million
Jews live today under conditions
that are, if anything, even more
wretched than prevailed 80 years
ago in Eastern Europe. These
areas are no longer outside the
range of modern influence and
the trade schools have opened new
horizons for large numbers of the
youth of these ancient ghettos.

ORT today is providing train-
ing to some 40,000 persons, an-
nually, in 19 countries. It main-
tains 650 training units and
teaches over 70 different trades. In
doing so it has helped to alter
the occupational pattern of large
numbers, opening many new areas
of job and work opportunity to
Jews.

The American Jewish commun-
ity provides a large portion of the
funds for this program, most of
it from the UJA through the Joint
Distribution Committee. But fully
half the budget is met locally, or
by groups and communities out-
side the U.S.

Thus, an idea born in the fer-
ment of Eastern European Jewry,
in an age gone by, remains vital
and valid for the world of today.
In our current idiom, the work
of ORT has been characterized as
"technical assistance." And it is,
indeed, the technical assistance
program of the Jewish people
throughout the world.

Jewry's Long Chain of Books

By Marvin Lowenthal

This article is based on address-
es given by Mr. Lowenthal at the
inauguration of the Henry Meyers
Memorial library of the Detroit
Jewish Community Center and
the annual meeting of the Nation-
al Jewish Welfare Board's Jewish
Book Council. The full text of
the address appears in Vol 18 of
the "Jewish Book Annual", pub-
lished by the Jewish Book Council.

Whenever a Jewish community
opens for general use a roomful
of pertinent books, it constitutes
the latest link in the long chain
of Jewish libraries, public and
private, which stretches back to
a misty and dateless antiquity. No
one any longer knows the nature
or the precise origin of the first
Jewish or, better said, Hebrew
library. Ancient Israel arose in a
highly civilized region; and li-
braries are indispensable to civili-
zation. Vast collections of books,
written to be sure on clay rather

than paper, have survived from
the royal libraries of Nineveh and
Babylon — collections whose earli-
est material, whose first editions,
date from nearly five thousand
years ago.

Of Israel itself, only hints are
left us. There was a city in the

territory ot Judah, originally a
Canaanite city, which Joshua
calls Kiriat-Sefer, that is, Book-
Town — a name later changed to
Debir, itself perhaps related to
the Hebrew term lor "word".
When the prophet Samuel wrote
a book on the character of the
kingdom which the Israelites in-
sisted upon adopting, he "laid"
the book "up before the Lord"
— that is to say, he put it into
the safekeeping of a sacred, priest-
ly library - possibly at Shiloh.
To put a book in a sacred-shrine
was a way of preserving not only
the document itself but the in-
tegrity of its text. The Greeks
often employed the same safe-
guards; it was the ancient equiva-
lent of taking out a copyright.

There must have been a library ,
a collection of archives at least,
in the celebrated First Temple
at Jerusalem. It was not any too
well run - or so circumstantial
evidence would imply. During the
eighteenth year of his reign (621
B.C.E.) King Joshia ordered the
Temple to undergo necessary re-
pairs. While the repairs were in
progress, probably in the stack-
ioom, a book was discovered
which had long been lost to sight
and mind. Tradition holds that
it was the Book of the Law, or

the Torah; modern scholarship
identifies it as the presumably
newly-written Book of Deuteron-
omy.

The first individual Jew credit-
ed with the creation of a public
library was Nehemiah, one of the
happy few who led in the restora-
tion of Jerusalem after the return
from the Babylonian captivity.

The Second Book of the Macca-
bees tells how Nehemiah, "found-
ing a library, gathered together
the acts of the kings and the pro-
phets, and of David, and the epis-
tles of the kings concerning the
kings concerning the holy gifts"

(2:13). Certainly the compilers of
the two Books of Chronicles, the
last historical writings included in
the canonical Hebrew Scriptures,
had at their disposal a rather ex-
tensive library — possibly the one
founded by Nehemiah. The con-
tents included all of the books
now contained in the Hebrew
Bible, except of course for such
miscellaneous works as were not
yet written. It also included a
goodly number of books cited and
sometimes tantalizing!) described
in Kings and Chronicles, but
which are lost forever. I count
twenty-one of these vanished treas-
ures.

No doubt somebody at some-
time or other must have borrow-
ed these fascinating books and,
as borrowers will, disappeared
with them into oblivion. What
says Ben Sirach? "Many persons,
when a thing is lent them, reckon
it to be something they found."

Yet, despite the depredations of
borrowers, books multiplied and
libraries grew. Koheleth has an
immortal word on this prolifera-
tion: "of making many books there
is no end". Probably the speediest
and most copious output in the
annals of the ancient publication
trade is recorded in the Second
Book of Esdras (14:44); in forty
days five men under the dictation
of Ezra wrote down 204 different
books composed on the spot. The
last seventy of them, incidentally,
were placed under what librarians
today call restricted circulation: in
this instanqfe they1 were issued
only to such readers "as be wise
among the people." But the ac-
count smacks more of Talmudic
midrash than of fact.

When the Talmud was in the
process of composition — during
the first two centuries before and
after the start of the Common
Era — the rabbinical schools had
at their command, among more

Balkans, and Jews of British,
French and Polish origin. Most
of these were in business, some
managing substantial enterprises.
There were also some American
Jews who served in governmental
posts.

Organized Jewish life, however,
was virtually non-existent. There
were services for the High Holy
Days on several occasions. A can-
tor was brought across the Pacific
from Shanghai one year to of-
ficiate on Yom Kippur. Jews who
wanted their new-born sons cir-
cumcised had to take them to
Hong Kong.

A certain Mr. Sinsberg of Singa-
pore, who did business in the Phil-
ippines, donated two Torah Scrolls
to the Jews in Manila in 1908
on condition that services be held
at least on Rosh Hashanah, Yom
Kippur and major festivals. When
no such services were held in 1909
and 1910, Mr. Sinsberg demand-
ed the return of his Torah Scrolls.
He got them back.

The beginning of a permanent
Jewish community dates from 1917
when Mottell Goldstein, a well-to-
do businessman, rented a hall and
organized a permanent congrega-
tion. At the end of a year
the congregation numbered 150.
In 1919 Goldstein was in the Unit-
ed States on business and he call-
ed on the National Jewish Wel-
fare Board. He came back to Ma-
nila as the representative of JWB,
charged with organizing religious
services for Jewish GIs during the
High Holy Days and Passover and
providing them with kosher meals.
Therefore, JWB regularly sent
supplies to the Philippines and the
welfare and religious program for
Jewish service personnel became
permanently established.

In 1922, JWB named Morton
Netzorg as its official representa-
tive in Manila. He had been a

teacher in the Philippine public
schools and an executive of an
insurance company. Under Net-
zorg's leadership, the Jewish com-
munity gained stability and by
1924 it organized Temple Emil
and built a synagogue. The syna-
gogue was named for Emil Bach-
rach, the first American Jew to
settle permanently in the Phili-
ppines. He had come there in the
189OS. When he died Mrs. Bach-
rach gave the community an ad-
ditional building, Bachrach Hall,
which became the center for all
cultural, social, recreational and
educational activities.

In the 1930s the community
was so well-established and secure
that it was able to absorb nearly
1300 German-Jewish refugees. The
newcomers were warmly received
and became an important part of
the growing Jewish community.
In 1932 Temple Emil had to build
an addition to accommodate the
growing membership.

Then came the war and the
miracle of Manila. After the war
about a third of the Jewish popu-
lation emigrated. The move than
500 who remained opened a He-
brew school, established a Zionist
club, founded an old folks home
and acquired a cemetery.

Since Rabbi Schwartz, the com-
munity has had three civilian rab-
bis-Simon Lowry, Sydney Lubin,
who left last April, and now Max
Warse. Jewish chaplains on duty

of the war have served not only

military personnel but cooperated
actively with the civilian Jewish
community.

The last Jewish chaplain was
Herbert Berger, recently transfer-
red by the Air Force from Clark
Air Force Base to Westover Field,
Mass. Five years ago the authori-
ties at Clark Air Force Base paid
the Jewish community and the
Jewish chaplains and servicemen
a unique tribute when they named
the rebuilt gymnaisum at the base
in honor of Lt. Meyer Levin of
Brooklyn, one of the first Jewish
heroes of World War II. Leaders
of the Jewish community today
cooperate closely with USO Club
in Manila and provided hospitality
for Jewish GIs. The community is
headed by Jack Harberer. E. E.
Simke serves as Israeli consul-
general. Ezra Toeg is the com-
munity shochet.

Periodically, JWB'; Commission
on Jewish Chaplaincy arranges
with the military for Torah Con-
vocations in the Pacific and the

leaders of these missions provide
the Manila Jewish community
with a major tie to the mainstream
of Jewish life. Such missions were
led by Rabbi Robert Gordis, the
late Rabbi Leon Lang, Rabbi
Julius Mark, Rabbi Max Eich-
horn, director of field operations
of the JWB's Commission on Jew-
ish Chaplaincy, and Rabbi Aryeh
Lev, the Commission's director.
In 1955, S. D. Gershovitz, fWB
executive vice-president, visited
the Philippines and conferred
with Jewish leaders, military of-
ficials, chaplains and USO person-
nel on GI morale needs.

On this Bar Mitzvah year of
the miracle of Manila and the
14th anniversary of Philippine in-
dependence, the Jewish commun-
ity in the Philippines is a strong
Pacific outpost of Jewish life be-
cause of its own will to survive
and because Jewish servicemen,
Jewish chaplains and JWB pro-
vide an unbreakable link with
Jewry everywhere.

(Continued From Page 85)

conventional library material,
what might be termed a talking
book. For a long while the rabbis
were loath to commit to writing
their prime source material, the
Mishnah or Oral Law, which was
the basic subject of their studies,
commentaries, opinions, and argu-
ments. Writing down the Oral
Law, they felt, might impair the
authoritative quality which came
from its being par excellence the
"unwritten" Law. They were also
afraid that scribes, who could not
be checked up on the spot and at
once, might be led into making
editorial changes or else what we
know today as typographical er-
rors. So they trained a band of
young men, usually not bright
enough to think of anything di-
vergent to learn the Mishnah by

heart; and when an assembly of
scholars wished to refer to this or
that original Mishnah text, about
which there might be some dis-
pute as to how it ran, one of these
voung men would reel it off ver-
batim. These human parrots had
powerful, well-developed memo-
ries and not too much intelligence.
Curiously enough, our ultra-mod-
ern libraries are resorting to this
old Talmudic method, though for
a different purpose; we have trans-
formed the young nu n into robots
known as tape-recordings.

EDITORIALS

(Concluded from Page 5)

Dr. Weisberg admitted to the writer, in a private conver-
sation, that he knowingly was propounding a theory which he
realized was for the most part impractical in the United States
of America in the year i960. He contended that he was point-
ing out what he considered deficiencies in our current Jewish
community living, in the hope that by calling attention to and
discussing them, we would become more aware of them, and
that something might then result by way of improvement. That
is of course, good provocative technique, which has frequently
been used by other public speakers.

All in all, it was a fine bar mitzvah and if there had been a
bit more sunshine and a little less rain, it would have been
even more enjoyable. The attendance was comfortably good,
and there was a fair share of young newcomers, which is al-
ways a fine sign for the Institute.

Phil Datnoff, of Hickory, was over-all chairman, and to
him and his assistants go approbation and appreciation for a
job well done.

Guilford Galleries Grows

Guilford Galleries, which last
December increased its floor area
to 32,000 square feet when it took
over a former bowling alley on
North Elm Street, is the subject ol
feature articles in the July issue
of "Furniture Retailer" and "Fur-
niture South."

The store also was written up
in the March issue of "National
Furniture Review."

"Hard sell with a velvet voice"
is credited by Furniture Retail-
er lor the focal firm's rapid growth
in three year's time. The article
declares that: "Guilford has sold
its community the idea that 'right-
ness' in home furnishings need not
cost a fortune, that good taste and
gracious surroundings are not de-
termined by the sum invested but
by careful selection and attention
to detail." It also says the store
draws customers from a 100-mile
radius of Greensboro.

All three articles describe the
firm's redecoration of the former

bowling alley and the way mer-
chandise is displayed in room set-
tings. All carry pictures of the
remodeled bowling alley entrance
and all feature numerous pictures
of displays in the new area.

Two of the magazines also in-
clude pictures of the formal open-
ing of the new addition with May-
or George Roach cutting the rib-
bon at the new entrance and sur-
rounded by the firm's officers,
President Boyd Barker, Vice Pres-
ident Ben W. Jones, and Secretary-
Treasurer William B. Martin.

just before the dawn of the Com-
mon Era, have a dramatic interest
which has captured our imagina-
tions. The drama is multiple. The
discovery and subsequent adven-
tures of the scrolls is exciting
enough, bi^t it is more than
matched by what must have been
the dramatic scene and circum-
stance of their original entomb-
ment in the remote caves above
the Wadi Qumran. Facing dire
peril and perhaps extermination,
the devout yahad or brotherhood,
being a Jewish community, wrap-
ped, double-wrapped, sealed in
jars, and hid away their most
precious possession — their library.
They showed in this a true and
enviable sense of community
values.

By its very nature, traditional
Judaism is a religion, a view oL
life and a way of life, inextricably
dependent upon books; and with
the passage of time and with the
many varied and changing worlds
to which the Jews found they had
to adapt themselves, the necessary
books grew more numerous and
the dependence upon them more
imperative. Mohammed called the
Jews "the people of the book,"
meaning of course the Hebrew
Bible, but "the people of books,"
would be more accurate. Besides
the Bible, an adequate Jewish li-
brary had to possess the many-
volumed Talmud, a whole arsenal
ol later digests, commentaries and
case-books, an array of prayer-
books and other devotional litera-
ture, ami, by the early Middle
Ages, shelves of philosophic specu-
lations, mystical and cabbalistic
works, anthologies of fables, para-
bles, and anecdotes (the Midra-
shim), moral disquisitions, as well
as grammars, dictionaries, geo-
graphies, astronomies, travel ac-
counts, and medical treatises.

Every Jewish community in the
Middle Ages — which for most
Jews lasted well into the 1 8th
century — possessed a library, large
or small, of this nature. It was
usually housed in the synagogue,
which was literal lv the community
center, or else in the Bet Ha-
midrash or House of Study. The
community was dependent upon
this library not only for recreation
and lor a fruitful wav of investing
one's time, but for the proper ex-
ercise of Judaism itself, for the
maintenance of economic and
social justice within the commun-
ity's gates, for the adjustment of

a thousand private, conflicting
interests, and for the true worship
of God. Study for the Jew, is also
prayer. Hillel — in words that you
will find in your Sabbath prayer-
book said: "Do not say, When I
have leisure I will study; perhaps
you will have no leisure. Yet an
empty-headed man cannot be a
sin-fearing man, nor can an igno-
rant person be pious, nor can a
shamefaced man learn, nor a pas-
sionate man teach, nor anyone
who is overmuch engaged in busi-
ness grow wise." For centuries the
Jews transferred these words from
prayer-book precepts into daily
practice in the synagogue library
or at home by a book-laden, can-
dle-lit table.

Besides the community libraries
there were naturally certain for-
tunate individuals possessed of
well-stocked book shelves. Lists
and catalogues have survived of
private medieval collections. Ju-
dah ben Saul Ibn Tibbon, a fam-
ous 12th century scholar and trans-
lator, has left us the injunctions
he laid upon his son for the care
of his library: keep the books, he
enjoins, well covered against dust

and damp and protected from
mice; write a list of the books
placed on each shelf, affix the
list to the shelf, and arrange the
books in the same order as on the
list; check over the Hebrew books
once every month, the Arabic
books every two months, and the
cases of unbound works every
three months; restore and have re-
stored all loaned books on Pass-
over and on Succot. It was Ibn
Tibbon who wrote some of the
most graciuos and inviting words
ever applied to a library: "Let
your cases and shelves be your
pleasure-grounds and orchards." I
would like to see this motto in-
scribed in every Jewish community
library, which like all libraries
should be enjoyed for both its
delisrhts and its fruits.

One of the great private col-
lectors was the 17th-century court
— Jew of Vienna, Samuel Oppen-
heimer. Eventually his 7000 print-
ed volumes and 1000 manuscripts
became the basis of the Bodleian
Library's magnificent collection
of Judaica (at Oxford). The
earliest modern communal collec-
tion of which the precise origin
can be dated was that of Mantua
in Italy; it was founded in 1767
upon the acquisition of 4500 vol-
umes from the private library of
Raphael Emanuel Mendola.

In the communal libraries, the
study halls, of old Jewish centers,
whether in North Africa or in
Europe, the very appearance of
the books piled on the shelves
or scattered on the tables told a
story. For the most part they
looked woe-begone, draggled, and
worm-eaten — not, however, be-
cause they were neglected but be-

cause they were used until they
were virtually used up. The best
books are the worst preserved,
because they are the best treated
— for what better treatment of a
book can there be than to read it
so often that its pages fall apart?

The National Jewish Welfare
Board's Jewish Book Council of
America has set forth eight mini-
mum requirements which must
be met by any communal library

tation of Merit" from the Coun-
cil. I would urge and underline a
ninth requirement: that a fair
proportion of its books be read to
shreds.

One hundred and thirty li-
braries sponsored by Jewish Com-
munity Centers, Synagogues. Jew-
ish schools and other community
agencies have received citations

Council of America.

that committee fo several years.
He has been and presently is ac-
tive as a member of the U.S.O.
Committee responsible for the co-
ordination of religious, welfare
and several activities of the mem-
bers of the armed forces at near-
by Fort Jackson.

He also served as chairman of
the local Jewish Welfare Board-
Armed Services Committee and is
South Carolina State Chairman
for J.W.B. He is also first vice-
president of the Regional J.W.B.
Armed Services Division head-
quartered in Atlanta. He is a
member of the National Board of
J.W.B.

Mr. Bank is active with the
United Jewish Appeal in Colum-
bia and has served as an officer
of that organization on several
occasions.

He is a member of the Tree
of Life Temple in Columbia, a
former officer and trustee.

B'nai B'rith has been of great
interest to him and he has served
as local and state president, been
active in the Fifth District and
last year attended the B'nai B'rith
Convention in Jerusalem as a del-
egate for this district. Mr. Bank
has been named i960 South Caro-
lina "Man of the Year" by the
state organization. He has served
as state chairman for the Joint
Defense Appeal. He is also a mem-
ber of the American Jewish Com-
mittee. For sixteen years he has
been senior advisor of the A.Z.A.,
the vouth organization of B'nai
B'rith.

In the post-war years along with
Mrs. Banks, he served as state
chairman of the United Service
for New Americans (now United
HIAS) in helping place Jewish
displaced persons into South Caro-
lina. The}' traveled and spoke
over the state and are proud of
the successful adjustment made by
these former refugees. Mrs. Banks
was made a member of the na-
tional advisory committee of
USNA and wrote "A Manual for
Small Communities" which was
reprinted several times and re-
ceived wide national circulation,
helping other communities to
plan for displaced persons in their
home towns. Mr. Bank was ap-
pointed to a three man advisory
committee on displaced persons
in South Carolina.

Seven years ago, he became
president of the City Board of

Health. He assisted in reorganiz-
ing the city health department
and tackled the city's outstanding
public health problem — its slums.
After two years of intensive work
and much opposition the City
Council passed a sub-standard
housing ordinance and created an
urban rehabilitation department
which has been responsible for
the improvement or destruction of
thousands ol slum houses.
Through the enforcement of ra-
bies control ordinances, Colum-
bia has been free of rabies for
the past four years — quite a
record for a city of that size. The
nursery licensing ordinance of the
Board has been used as a model
for other communities in the
Southeast wishing to protect theit
preschool chTTdren. Right now,
he is all over the city talking
about fluoridation for the protec-
tion of children's teeth. His vol-
untary job as President of the
City Board of Health takes much
of his leisure time.

As a member of the Chamber
of Commerce, he has served on
various committees over the years
and is now on its urban renewal
committee.

He has been active in the Com-
munity Chest and has served on
the Social Planning Division of
the United Fund.

When asked for the motivation
for his public service, Mr. Bank
indicated that his background as
a child and youth emphasized
social service responsibilities. The
whole atmosphere of his eaJy life
was centered around service to
others. With such an up-bringing
plus the religious background of
Judaism which teaches the broth-
erhood of man and the fatherhood
of God, plus his belief in the
American way of life which re-
spects the uniqueness of each in
dividual, there could be no other
course for him than to serve his
fellow-man to the best of his
abilities.

well the great issues which still

Israel and the people of Cyprus
every since the ancient biblical days
down to contemporary times. Be-
tween the end of the war and the
rebirth of Israel as a state in 1948,
the Cypriotes displayed most laudi-
ble cooperation with Jewish leaders
and organizations in connection
with the so-called "illegal" immi-
gration to Palestine.

Cairo in recent weeks has been
making frantic efforts to thwart
establishment of diplomatic rela-
tions between the countries as well
as to undermine the old friendship
between Israel and the Cypriote
people. Cairo in its abortive efforts
to breach that friendship poured
out propaganda that Egypt had
helped Cvorus get independence.

The new government of Cyprus
indicated it plans naming for the
time onlv four ambassadors, to
London, AVashington, Athens and
Ankona.

Ambassador Michael Comay, Is-
rael's Permanent Representative to
the United Nations was among: the
prominent speakers at the United
Jewish Appeal's National Midyear
Leadership Conference, at the Shore-
ham Hotel in Washington, D. C.

Ma, Me and Milady

(Concluded From Page 29)
her with a needle she didn't relish.
Enough was enough. She couldn't
take it - my nagging, my piddling
economy, my gross immunity
while she suffered.

And then the dam broke.

"Listen Daddy-O," she ex-
claimed haughtily, "please do me
a favor and lend me a thousand
dollars. Please. I've had it, but
good!"

"You've had what?" I shot back
adamantly.

My question was ignored, as if
I'd never mentioned it.

"You'd better lend me the
money because tomorrow I'm
calling Marilyns' husband. He's
a customer's man in a brokerage
house downtown and I'm going
to tell him to buy me as many
shares in g. and e. as he can for
the money. This simply can't go
on, this peanut economy plan of
yours!"

I stared at her but to no avail.
She carried on unswervingly.
"After all,, I'd rather do this
than constantly harp at my chil-
dren and drive them to an asylum
for penny-pinchers, all because of
a nickel or dime saving a day. And
besides, won't it be a wonderful
feeling to know that the more
juice you use the better the likeli-
hood of an increase in dividends?"

Frankly I resented Milady tell-
ing me off in this manner. "I've
never bought a share of stock in
my life. Why start now?"

Milady had the undisputed an-
swer. "It's about time you did.
Isn't it gratifying to know that
every time you pull the light chord
or twitch the switch you will be
contributing to the good and wel-
fare of a company you have a fi-
nancial interest in?"

That was a year ago. To day,
thanks to my wife, pardon me, Mi-
lady, we have 13,000 invested in
g. and e., proud owners of 100
shares of common which nets us
$100 a year in dividends. Our
utility bills get bigger and bigger
as time goes on, but the wav Mi-
lady figures it we're way ahead
at the end of every twelve month
period.

Ma had the right idea all along,
but it took Milady to generate it
into effect.

That is, in one respect only.

The American Jewish TIMES-OUTLOOK

The Civic Liberties Union

(Concluded From Page 33)

Solomon's warning in Proverbs
18:21, "Death and life are in the
power of the tongue." In some
mysterious way, our liberties, or
constitution, or democratic way
of life will be safe as long as
people are free to say anything
they wish. Thus a Kasper might
defy the injunction of a Federal
judge by haranguing segregation-
ists to prevent the admission of
Negro children in white schools.
The A.C.L.U. deems it a matter
and defends this firebrand's right
of conscience to rush into court
to harangue a mob in Clinton,
Tenn. A public school is dynamit-
ed into a heap of rubble. What
of it as long as the rights of a
demagogue to stir up passions are
upheld.

If anyone concludes that this
writer is indifferent to free speech
he is wrong. But the difference
between liberty and license has
been often defined. The famous
dictum of Justice Holmes about
shouting "fire" in a crowded
theatre has passed into current
Americanese; it has become a
popular maxim. My quarrel with
the A.C.L.U. springs from a fan-
atical interpretation of the 1st
or 14th Amendments that leads
to dangerous absurdities. Freedom
of speech like any other rule of
life or conduct must be construed
with reasonable common sense.
The courts have never defined
civil rights as a license to shout

regardless of its effect or conse-
quence. Frank Murphy, one of the
most liberal judges ever to sit on
the Supreme Court, wrote an
opinion that became unanimous
in Chaplinsky vs. New Hampshire
(315 U.S. 568):

Allowing the broadest scope to
the language and purpose of the
Fourteenth Amendment, it is well
understood that the right of free
speech is not absolute at all times
and under all circumstances.
There are certain well-defined and
narrowly limited classes of speech,
the prevention and punishment of
which has never been thought to
raise any constitutional problem.
These include the lewd and ob-
scene, the profane, the libelous,
and the insulting or'Tighting"
words— those which by their very
utterance inflice injury or tend to
incite an immediate breach of
the peace. Resort to epithets or
personal abuse is not in any prop-
er sense communication of in-
formation or opinion safeguarded
by the Constitution, and its pun-
ishment as a criminal act would
raise no question under that in-
strument.

Legal aid to Rockwell's Nazis
is even more absurd, if not more
dangerous, than support to Kasp-
er. Surely the A.C.L.U. has leaders
with a moral sense of public re-
sponsibility. Are they blind to
the implications of a Nazi move-
ment in America? Did they ever
read Mein Kampf? Can they be
insensible to the perils lurking in
anti-Semitism as a political weap-
on? Are they ignorant or merely
indifferent to the events that
transpired in the 1930 and 40
decades? Is it a matter of small
moment that 6,000,000 Jews were
eliminated by a racist philosophy
now taken up by Rockwell? Yet
the A.C.L.U. furnishes legal pro-
tection as soon as a Rockwell
copperhead is arrested for spew-
ing forth venom that calls for ex-
termination of Jews in America
and elsewhere.

The Hebrew word saichel has
no equivilent in English. It de-
notes reason together with com-
mon sense joined to intuitive un-
derstanding that avoids pitfalls
and leads to wise decision. The
trouble with the A.C.L.U. is that
it lacks saichel. And the Jewish
lawyers who jump to the defense
of Rockwell's henchmen are the
most naive of the lot.

one room set aside lor its exclu-
sive use; be staffed by a full or
part-time librarian; have a fixed
annual budget; contain a mini-
mum of 1,000 Jewish books in any
language; acquire a minimum of
100 new Jewish books during the
previous year; have a catalogue
accessible to all readers; be open
at least 10 hours a week; and par-
ticipate actively in Jewish Book
Month activities and other pro-
jects that enrich Jewish culture.)

The purpose of a library is to
be used; a library without readers,
especially zealous readers, is just
a cut above a library that doesn't
exist. There is no public prestige
or morale-boosting to be gained
from the mere presence of a col-
lection of books. A Jewish com-
munity library has a unique func-
tion of its own in relation to the
community it serves. As things
stand today, every Jewish com-
munity must look upon itself as
a reservoir of forces devoted to the
cultivation, enrichment, and sur-
vival of Jewish life. Conceivably
it may not be a large reservoir,
but it will be deep, and it will be
fed by unfailing springs. These
springs well up from within the
books which contain the ever-
living waters, the mayim hayim,
of the Jewish tradition. Only to
the degree that these waters are
regularly imbibed by the individ-

ual members of our local com-
munities will Jewish life thrive in
America.

Life in any Diaspora land sets
up powerful currents and counter-
attractions against the mainten-
ance of an informed, vigorous
Jewish culture. The Jewish li-
brary, the Jewish school, and the
Jewish home, even when working
together, will have a hard enough
struggle to prevent the gradually
complete evaporation of Jewish
knowledge and values. Neither
library, school, nor home can af-
ford to go it alone, and victory
can be had only at the price of
constant cooperation and effort.
We can hope that someday this
victory will be seen in the shabby,
dog-eared, dilapidated condition
of the books stacked in every
communal library; these veterans
will bear, like trophies, the scars
of a triumphant campaign.

A book, after all, is chiefly an
instrucent for enabling us to mas-
ter the art of living. David ben
Gurion, the valiant prime minis-
ter of Israel, summed up three
thousand years of history when
he said, "We have preserved the
Book and the Book has preserved
us."

Nazi victims, is said to include the
proceeds of ransom which Eich-

Yom Kippur, A Day of Spiritual
Regeneration

By Rabbi Simcha Kling, Beth David Synagogue,
Greensboro, North Carolina

One of the principle characteristics of Judaism is its
optimistic attitude towards life and towards man. It realizes
that no human being is perfect; yet it rejects the doctrine of
Original Sin. It refuses to condemn man to perdition from
birth and holds out the possibility of perfecting the human
being and perfecting human society. Judaism is not blind to
reality. It recognizes the evil that exists in the world. However,
it insists that the evil is not inherent and that it can be over-
come.

That is why the tradition pictures every person being born
with two impulses: the YETZER TOV and the YETZER
RA, the good inclination and the evil inclination. Which one
will dominate? That depends on the individual, himself. He
is so made that he can choose which YETZER, which inclina-
tion will have the upper hand.

I find this teaching the key to Yom Kippur. What is the
significance of this awesome day? It is to move us to examine
ourselves very carefully and to bring us to a sincere determina-
tion not to repeat the errors and the sins we have committed
in the past. Indeed, the main theme of the High Holy Days is
TESHUVA Repentance, a word not always correctly under-
stood in English because of its Christological overtones. The
word TESHUVA really mean "to return." The Hebraic con-
cept of repentance is to return to the point where you went
wrong and then to continue on wihout going off on that wrong
road again.

At the High Holy Day season, inspired by the ligurgy and
music of the services, many of us leave the synagogue in re-
pentance and determined to improve the quality of our lives.
However many of us are like the poor woman in the Hassidic
story. She did not know how to support her children, but once
she found an egg and eagerly called them to her. "My chil-
dren." she said, "we don't have to worry any more. I have
found an egg: however, since I am a practical woman, I shall
not permit the egg to be eaten. I'll ask our neighbor to let me
place this egg under her hen. Then a chicken will hatch out of
it. Since I am a wise woman, we will not eat the chicken but
will let it hatch other eggs from which will come more chick-
ens. We will sell these and buy a calf. It will develop into a
cow which will give birth to many calves. Then, being a prac-
tical woman, I'll sell them and buy a field. Then, we will have
a field and cows and calves, and nothing will be missing."
While the woman was talking, she played with the egg — and
suddenly, it fell and broke."

The rebbe who told this tale continued: "So are we. When
the Holy Days come around, everyone examines his deeds and
regrets his wrongs. But the days pass and people forget their
good intentions. Just as the woman made good plans but

permitted carelessness and thoughtlessness to prevent her from
accomplishing even a little, so are we. Beware lest you fall
into the pit!"

Let us heed the advise of the rebbe. Let us beware lest we
fall into the pit. Let Yom Kippur be for us a day of spiritual
regeneration from which we will go forward resolute to let the
yetzer tov overcome the yetzer ra. God grant that the solemn
and sacred day of atonement help us to live better and richer
lives, lives of goodness and Godliness.

The Festival of Succos

Guest Editorial by Abe W. Schoen, Rabbi of Beth Meyer
Synagogue, Raleigh, North Carolina

In many spheres of American life there has been a grow-
ing tendency to the abdication of responsibility. Hence we
find a situation where the development of religious attitudes,
moral values, and ethical standards is completely relegated to
people and institutions outside of the home. Contemporane-
ously, as a result of current popular psychological notions,
society has too hastily absolved normal individuals from the
responsibility for their behavior. Unblushingly, many per-
petrators of anti-social or improper behavior have attributed
their actions to the unwholesomeness of their environment or
society. These attitudes are contrary to Jewish principles and
more profound psychological and socialogical theories. For
although Judaism recognizes the effect of environment and
society upon personal behavior, it still states emphatically that
under normally prevailing conditions an individual is re-
sponsible for his behavior. Total environment, which most
certainly includes the home, determines religious attitudes,
moral values and ethical standards. The home environment is
probably the most important factor in these areas.

The Festival of Succot apparently places great emphasis
upon home environment and personal responsibility for be-
havior. The command and the duty for the observance of
Succot is expressed in the Torah (Deut. 16:13) in an individ-
ual charge, "Thou (you individually) shall make for yourself
(observe) the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days, etc." Al-
though it is also a collective command and precept for all Isra-
lites, the emphasis is placed upon the individual Jew, "Toase
Leha." We are exhorted to be participants and not spectators
of Judaism. The observance of this festival or any other festi-
val, when completely confined to the religious school or syna-
gogue will ultimately reduce the holy day or holiday to a fossil
for a "religious museum."

Jewish survival and the survival of Jewish values is de-
pendent upon vibrant and dynamic observances. Succot and all
Jewish observances are as meaningful today as they have al-
ways been. The Succat, the etrog and the lulav are symbolic
of eternal values and concepts. To perpetuate these values we
must "make" Succot in our homes, as well as our religious
schools and synagogues. Among other attributes, Succot com-

OH, LET'S STAY HOME !

I have received considerable
wisdom from out in California . . .
from a lady, Mrs. Stella Levy of
6040 Caivin Avenue, Tarzana,
Cal. (She reads this column in
the B'nai B'rith Messenger, Los
Angeles.)

ALFRED SEGAL

It's all in one of her paragraphs,
in which she exclaims: "Since we
can't get along with each other
on this earth, how futile it is to
spend time and effort trying to
find out what goes on in other
planets."

Mrs. Levy goes on to suggest
that we do something to make this
earth worthwhile living on, in ac-
cordance with the prophet's wis-
dom which asks: "What doth the
Lord require of thee? To do just-
ly, to love mercy and to walk
humbly with thy God."

Yes, I myself have been saying
the same as Mrs. Levy and in
fact, I so agreecl with her that after
reading her wisdom, I went to the
study of the renowned Prof.
Shlemiel to argue him down.

You don't know Prof. Shlemiel,
maybe? Oh, he's one of those who
are trying to reach far into space
. . , maybe to Venus or to Jupiter,
or anyway, to the moon.

I found him high up in one of
those telescopes . . . "Prof. Shelem-
iel!" I exclaimed, as I approached
him, but he didn't hear me. For
more than an hour I sat there
waiting for the professor to come
down from the moon, or where-
ever he was.

Finally, he returned. . . "How
do you do, Professor Shlemiel?
\ou've been up there a long time,
and what have you found?"

"Who are you?" he asked, "and
what do you want?"

"I am a reporter," I replied,
"and I'm writing about all you
shlemiels who go searching away
up there when there's so much
still to know right down here.
Professor Shlemiel, do you know
anything about your own neigh-
borhood?"

"You're insulting my scholarly
mind," he said. "We who are the
big minds are concerned mostly
with what goes on out in the uni-
verse."

"But, Professor Shlemiel, it's my
own opinion that what goes on
next door is much more import-
ant . . . and interesting . . . Do you
know, professor" . . . and I start-
ed to report to him on what goes
on right around the corner from
his own house . . . "Professor, do
you know about those slums next
door to you, almost. There was
that man who hanged himself in
the slum only the other day be-
cause he couldn't see any sense in
living that way any longer . . .
while you were searching the
moon and other planets."

I told him about the crying
child I saw on the dirty front
steps. I asked him why he was
crying, and he said it was on ac-
count of ITis mama. It was two
days since he last saw her, going
off to her work.

"Yes, professor, that's how dirty
it is in a lot of places down here
on the earth . . . even next door
to you . . . and so why bother
yourself searching the moon? . . .
Oh, Professor Shlemiel!"

I recited to him about the out-
bursts of hate boiling up all
around the world . . . races hating
each other, and nations hating . . .
religions at each other's throats
. . . "Oh, professor, what's the dif-
ference then, as to what goes on
a million or so miles up there on
the moon. Why not let's start
scientifically and humanely down
here?"

Prof. Shlemiel's eyes were look-
ing up and far off . . . "Only to-
day," he safd proudly, "I found
a mountain on the moon. I'm al-
ways finding something up there."

I started to read to him from
the letter of California's Stella
Levy . . . "Please listen to this
professor," I said. "It has to do
with our duties down here and
why should you, Professor Shle-
miel . . . you and all those other
minds ... be wandering so far
away up into space when there's

such a big unfinished job to ful-
fill on this earth." Mrs. Levy was
saying: "Concentiating on learn-
ing to live with our fellowman is
of vital importance. We should
not engender hatred, greed and
bigotry because of differences. We

PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST—

A MUST

By The Honorable Richard M. Nixon

The following is a message to the Annual Convention of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America by Richard M. Nixon, Republican candidate for President of

the United States

I believe it is most fortunate
that both candidates for the Presi-
dency agree that the United States
is committed to the preservation
of the independence of Israel, the
prevention of armed aggression in
the Near East ancl the use of our
best offices to bring about a stable
peace between Israel and the Arab
states. Our whole policy has dem-
onstrated this bipartisan effort.

It was indeed most eloquently
and clearly expressed by President
Eisenhower in April 1956 when he
said:

"The United States, in accord-
ance with its responsibilities under
the charter of the United Nations,
will observe its commitments with-
in constitutional means to oppose
any aggression in the area.

"The United States is likewise
determined to support and assist
any nation which might be sub-
jected to such aggression. The
United States is confident that
other nations will act similarly
in the cause of peace."

I am confident that no matter
who occupies the White House
during the coming administration
this firm national policy will re-
main unchanged.

But we must recognize that
there are those who hope to profit
by fanning enmities in the Near
East. For example, stability in the
area which is a necessary precon-
dition to a just settlement of the
tragic Arab-Israel conflict has been
seriously prejudiced by the ir-
responsibility of Soviet sales of
arms and by the Kremlin's con-
tinued meddling in the internal af-
fairs of Arab countries for its own
Communist purposes.

The Soviets have moreover re-
fused to contribute any support
whatever to the United Nations

Emergency Force which has been
the major stabilizing influence in
the Middle East.

In addition to our own efforts,
the role of the United Nations
must be emphasized. It should con-
tinue to receive the greatest sup-
port we can provide. We have had
an encouraging demonstration of
what it can do in the way Ambas-
sador Lodge successfully brought
about a formula to settle the sharp
difficulties between Israel and the
Argentine over the Adolf Eich-
mann case.

As long as the Arab boycott and

for growth and for the resettle-

labor and skills can be employed
to full advantage.

Africa and Asia. ,

Above all, continued and tireless
search for practical means to

A Disciple of Hillel

By Harry E. Wedeck

HARRY E WEDECK

"It's a quiet little place, this
Medford," Mr. Sacks announced,
after his wife and young son, Stan-
ley had been settled in the New
England town for some weeks.

"I like it," Mrs. Sacks declared.
"Just small and cosy enough. 1
hope Stanley will find some nice
ftoys, as friends, when he starts
school next week."

"You can be sure of that," Mr.
Sacks rejoined. "But of course he
has to expect all kinds. That's
what a community is made up of.
Anyway, he knows how to behave,
and now he's going to Hebrew
school as well, he'll be organized."

They talked together for a
while. Then Mr. Sacks went into
his den to prepare some blue-
prints. For, as engineer on the
Jiew construction project near the
dam, he was going to be busy.

Enrolled at school, Stanley met
his companions, all in the same
age group, about ten or eleven.

"There's a boy who lives across
the street, mom," Stanley announc-
ed a few days later. "Jim Win-
throp."

"That's good," his mother said.
"You'll be friends then."

"Well, mom," Stanley hesitated.
"What's the matter? Don't you
like him?"

"I like him all right. But he's
always teasing me. Calls me Jew
and says I'm a foreigner. Am I,
mom?"

His mother laughed. "It will be
all right."

But it wasn't all right. A week
later Stanley came home one after-
noon, morose, silent.

"You're late, Stan. What's the
matter?" his mother asked. "De-
tention?"

"No, mom." But he recalled in
his mind how Jim Winthrop had
called him names. He had even

thrown a blob of mud at him.
Some of the boys had wanted a
fight between Jim and Stanley.
But Jim had just laughed.

"I wouldn't fight him," he
sneered. "He's a Jew."

Stanley had grown hot and ex-
cited. Only the thought of his
mother waiting anxiously for him
kept him from attacking the big-
ger lad.

He did his school work in si-
lence. He did not want the tele-
vision that night.

When Mr. Sacks came home, he
asked: "Where's Stan?"

"Gone up to his room," Mrs.
Sachs answered. "He's been very
quiet all day."

"It's just the newness," Mr.
Sacks laughed it off. "He'll get
over it presently."

On Wednesday afternoon Mrs.
Sachs was busy at the stove, bak-
ing. There was to be a friendly
gathering of the Ladies Auxiliary
of the Temple.

Suddenly, the door burst open.
Stanley, flushed, dashed in.

"There's lieen an accident,
mom." he gasped. "A terrible ac-
cident!"

"What is it, Stanley?"

"Jim Winthrop, mom. He fell
into the well near the new con-
struction."

"Where your father is work-
ing?"

"I think so, mom."

"How did it happen?"

"We were walking home, a few
of us. And Jim Winthrop dared
me to climb down inside."

"Yes?"

"He said I'd be a coward if I
didn't. So I started to climb down.
But some of the other boys held
me back. They said it was too
dangerous. Then, as we were talk-
ing, Jim rushed over to the well
and cried: 'Watch me!' His foot

slipped, and he went down. We
heard him calling. He's down
there."

Stanley stopped for breath.
"Sit down, Stan." Mrs. Sachs
came over to him and made him
rest beside the kitchen table. She
glanced at the clock. "Father will
be home any minute now. Ah.
there's his key."

Mr. Sacks came in. "Hello,
family. Why the silence?"

Then he caught sight of Mrs.
Sacks, and the worried look on
Stanley's face.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

Rapidly, Mrs. Sacks explained.

"The well!" Mr. Sacks exclaim-
ed. "That's what we're using lor
the water pipes in my construc-
tion project. I'd better go down
and see. It's late, all my men are
probably gone. But I'll see."

"Pop." Stanley suddenly looked
up. "It's Jim Winthrop, you
know. I don't care now if he
never gets out."

"Stanley!" his father snapped,
angered. "Go to your room!"

He dashed to his car and as he
got behind the steering wheel
Mrs. Sacks called: "Be careful,
Philip!"

"I will, Lillian!"

He started the car and in a few
moments he was driving fast to-
ward the well, just on the out-
skirts ol the town.

He knew the well. It had not
yet been sounded, but he estimat-
ed that it was deep.

A small group of youngsters
and some adults stood around.

They looked up as the car ap-
proached.

It's Jim Winthrop, Mr. Sacks,"
one man explained." He's down
there. He's been calling out. But
it's quiet now."

"Here, Peterson," Mr. Sacks
called to one of the men. "Rush

to my office. Get me a long rope.
The longest there is."

"Right." Petersen was off. In a
few minutes he returned, with the
rope.

Mr. Sacks began to coil it. He
tied one end to an iron staple he
had taken from the rear of the
car.

Then he leaned over the well.

"Hello, Jim. Jim Winthrop!
Can you hear me?"

There came up to him, faintly.
A boyish frightened wail.

"Hold on, Jim! This is Mr.
Sacks. I'm coming down for you."

"I hope the boy's not badly
hurt," a bystander remarked.

"Mr. Sacks will have him out
in a jiffy," another added.

The rope now firmly tied to the
staple fixed solidly into the
ground, Mr. Sacks threw off his
coat.

"The boss himself is going
down," the whisper went round.

There was a silence, as Mr.
Sacks wound down and down,
gripping the rope skilfully. Sud-
denly the rope stopped twisting.
It came to rest.

A pause. Then once again the
rope started to wind and turn,
slowly, steadily, as if strong hands
were working upward, sure of
themselves.

Then a head appeared, a tousl-
ed mop of hair, and a tear-stained
face, and Jim Winthrop rose out
of the mouth of the well, clutched
close and safe by Mr. Sacks.

A gasp went up, of relief and
gladness. Not a few eyes are tear-
stained.

A waiting ambulance hurried
Jim to hospital. As Mr. Sacks
drove off, a warm-hearted cheer
followed him.

Jim Winthrop had suffered
shock and bruises, and remained

Can Man Improve?

By Rabbi Samuel Umen

During the holy days season the
thoughts oT a Jew center on his
way of life, For, in these days he
is urged to carefully examine his
ways and exhorted to mend and
correct whatever in his behavior
needs to "be improved.

In this connection it is often
asked whether man's nature is
such that it can be improved.
There are individuals who con-
tend that man is utterly hope-
less. He is born imperfect, lives
and dies in the same state. With
the whole world unto themselves,
brothers Cain and Abel could not
get along together and committed
murder. The example of these two
has repeated itself throughout his-
tory and is not much different
in our own day. The strong take
advantage of the weak, power
and might are enthroned. Thus
it has been, some argue, and so it
will continue to be.

However, an examination of
human history from primitive
times to the present will reveal
that in every phase of life pro-
gress is recorded. The desire to
improve, the capacity to reason,
enabled man to conceive a higher
God concept; to gain a deeper un-
derstanding of his environment;
to establish better forms of govern-
ment; to create improved labor
conditions; and to acquire a more
profound evaluation of human
dignity and human rights.

If history records man's inhu-
manity to man, it also records
many instances of heroism, mart-
yrdom, saintliness, sympathy, char-
ity, love, and understanding.

If man is possessed with quali-
ties of the beast, he is also fash-
ioned a little lower than the
angels. "Individuals" says Rabbi
Abraham Kook in his religious
philosophy, "and even groups may
stray from the right path but the
human path is constantly rising

and approaching the good which
is elemental in the universe. . . In
every generation there are always
a number of men who strive
wholeheartedly toward the divine
good in the world and they in-
directly raise even the weaker
members of the race to a higher
level. . . . Moreover, there is still
another factor which contributes
to human progress namely, the
deeds and thoughts of the great
men, of the past. The good which
these men of the past acquired
during their lives does not disap-
pear even after their death. In-
directly and by devious ways the
good of the men of the past in-
fluences the lives of later genera-
tions and conduces to their eleva-
tion."

Yes, man can improve. He has
the capacity to overcome his sav-
age characteristics. To civilized
people today, eating human flesh
is an entirely unnatural thing. Yet,
there have been peoples to whom
it seemed natural because it was
socially authorized and even high-
ly esteemed.

Aristotle spoke for an entire
social order as well for himself
when he said that slavery existed
by nature. He would have re-
garded efforts to abolish slavery
from society as an idle Utopian
effort.

There have been times and
places in which land was held in
common and in which private
ownership of land would have
been regarded as the most mon-
strous of unnatural things. There
have been other times and places
when and where all wealth was
possessed by an overlord and his
subjects held wealth, if any, sub-
ject to his pleasure.

"The belieT that human nature
is beyond improvement," says
John Dewey, "is the most depres-

sing and pessimistic of all possible
doctrines. For according to it,
persons are what they are at birth
and nothing can be done about
it. If human nature is unchange-
able, then all our aims and efforts
to educate are doomed to failure.
For the very meaning of education
is modification of nature in forma-
tion of those ways of thinking
and believing that are foreign to
primitive man."

Not only is man able to improve
and renew himself but in this
enterprise toward newness and re-
generation lies the very meaning
of his life. Concerning all things
which God created, the Bible
states, "And God said that it was
good." But of the creation of man,
it is not said it was good. Be-
cause, say the Rabbis, man was
not created perfect, but perfecti-
ble. His destiny is to perfect him-
self and his world.

A person who is intent on self
improvement, will discover that
he has within him the potentiali-
ties of becoming "a little lower
than the angels."

RABBI SAMUEL UMEN

Experience and observation re-
veal daily glimpses of possibility
and resource stored away in the
depths of consciousness of average
men. They can be stirred to feats
of physical strength and endur-
ance: they have in them capacities
for art, skill, poetry, idealism, de-
votion. You never can tell when
these gleams of a higher life may
not shine out. These gleams and
sparks are to be seen in the hum-
blest places. Wake a man up, give
him a hope, set a great purpose
before him, let him feel the thrill
of the heart-beats of his fellow
working, fighting, struggling, co-
operating with him, and he be-
comes a new man.

The holy days call the Jew to
take stock of his gifts, to improve
them, to use them and use them
wisely for his own benefits and
that of his fellow man.

May we, through self improve-
ment and worthy deeds, help make
the New Year one of peace, pros-
perity and good will for all man-
kind.

Dr. Samuel Nunez

The First Physician In Georgia— 1731

BY HARRY SIMONHOFF

About the time when the powers
above were deciding to send
George Washington into our
world to change the course of
history, Samuel Nunez lived in a
mansion on the Tagus River in
Lisbon, Portugal. Wealthy, head
of a family, socially prominent,
and physician to the king, he had
every reason to live in grateful
contentment.

Colleagues envious of his posi-
tion and success, probably whis-
pered that Dr. Nunez was after
all but a New Christian, even if
his ancestors, who fled Spain in
1492, had been saying mass, con-
fessing sins, and receiving com-
munion for more than two cen-
turies. Envy, like its second cousin
jealousy, feeding upon itself and HARRY SIMONHOFF

growing into a green monster, ed in some secret cell under his
perhaps spread rumors about pro- imposing hacienda. Probably these
scribed Jewish rites being practic- tales reached the many ears of

the Inquisition. One unsuspect-
ing day, two spies suddenly slith-
ered into the living room. It was
too late to hide the little Hebrew
books in the hollow seats of chairs
worked by springs. The family
and prayer books were cast into
prison. On lesser showing, sus-
pects had been burned at Auto-da-
Fes lor two centuries.

A miracle intervened. Either
the king needed his physician, or
the refreshing winds of the 18th
century enlightenment (aufklae-
rung) were blowing across the
Spanish peninsula. Doctor and
family got off with mild sentence:
two overseers of the Holv Office
were stationed at the mansion on
the river front to supervise the
behavior of the Nunez family. But
it must have been rather uncom-
fortable to live in the shadow of
two bigots holding the menace
of death or prison over their
heads. The doctor hatched up a
scheme, which might lead to lib-
eration or the burning stake.

The Nunez family were accus-
tomed to entertain in elaborate
style. So it caused little surprise
and much comment among Lis-
bon's socialites for the king's
physician to throw a gala dinner
party. That afternoon, an English
sea captain, with whom the doctor
had become chummy, invited the
entire family, several friends, and
the two hounds of the Inquisition
to come aboard his ship. It was
thoughtful of the captain to en-

tertain them with cocktails and
English roast beet. And what re-
lief to escape the din and clatter
of the officious servants in their
busy preparation for the evening
banquet.

While the party were exhilarat-
ing below, the crew cleared the
deck, unfurled the sails, and raised
the anchor. In a brisk wind, the
boat glided out of Lisbon harbor
and sailed for England. The
friendly captain received the
handsome gift of 1000 moidres
for his trouble. The refugees
carried away whatever jewels and
money they could secrete about
their persons without exciting su-
spicion. Dr. Nunez left his man-
sion, his furniture, plate, and all
possessions accumulated in two
centuries to the Holy Office of
the Inquisition.

The doctor found himself in
the London community, which
was rapidly succeeding and even
displacing Amsterdam as the cen-
ter of world Jewry. Its wealth and
prestige were attracting destitute
Jews from Germany and Poland.
But the proud Hidalgoes did not
relish the strain upon their phil-
anthropy, at least not from lowlv
Ashkenazim. The Sephardic lead-
ership saw the possibility of get-
ting rid of their poor by utilizing
the scheme of James Oglethrope.

The idealist General's idea was
to open the jails and send the im-
prisoned debtors to start a new
life in the New World. King
George had granted the land be-
tween Carolina and Florida for a
new colony; Parliament voted 10,-
ooo pounds for the project; The
Trustees for the Georgia col-
ony were soliciting donations from
the wealthy or the charitable.

Collections did not come in so
rapidly. So when a letter was read
at a Trustees' meeting from Da
Costa, Salvador, and Suasso offer-
ing to raise money in the Jewish
community, the Board accepted
gratefully. The Jews collected a
tidy sum but imposed a condition.
They merely requested that some
of their own coreligionists be per-
mitted to sail with the indigent
debtors to colonize Georgia. What
audacity! Did they think Jews
were better than Catholics: The
by-laws specifically excluded Pap-
ists. Barring out the Jews was
simply overlooked. Outraged, the
Trustees demanded Back the com-
mission to raise funds. Try and
get it was the Jewish reply. In
February, 1733, General Ogle-
thrope landed his cargo of 116

settlers near the mouth of the
Savannah River.

Several months later, a second
ship docked at Savannah harbor.
On board were about 40 Jewish
settlers, without permissison from
the all powerful Board. What
could have induced the Jewish
committee to charter a boat, know-
ing full well the hostility of the
Trustees? Why did the passengers
chance a long, perilous ocean
voyage without proper authoriza-
tion? Perchance they banked on
Gen. Oglethrope's idealism? Or
did they simply play a hunch?

Governor Oglethorpe was dis-
turbed and displeased. His first
impulse was to send them all back.
It is unpleasant to quarrel with
;i Board, whose sentiments he
knew. To allow them to land
would be disobeying orders. But
his better nature asserted itself.
Perhaps his common sense point-
ed to the absurdity of barring im-
migrants from a vacant land bad-
ly in need of colonists. He knew
the Spanish enemies in Florida
looked with jaundiced eyes upon
an English colony settling on land
they claimed. Surrounded by In-
dian savages was the tiny colony,
v.-.cse very existence was now
threatened by a fatal epidemic.

A fatal epidemic! And the col-
ony without a single doctor! Need
we look further for the motive
that swayed Gov. Oglethrope when
he heard that the King of Portu-
gal's physician was on the ship?
He decided to let all Jewish pas-
sengers land and then ask of Lon-
don to confirm his act. Evidently
it took little time to ascertain the
value of his Jewish colonists. Long

The age of patron and client
peoples is gone. A new spirit has
been infused into the relations of
all people, the old and the reborn.
Therefore, we come not only with
our needs, but also with our in-
dividual contributions to the crea-
tion of the new era and the new
order.

We of the Weizmann Institute
have been nurtured on these ideas.
They were the moving force in
the long and illustrious career of
our teacher and founder, Dr.
C h a i m Weizmann, statesman,
scientist, and humanist. From his
resting place within these precincts
he broods serenely over the be-
ginnings of the fulfillment of his
dream— the coming together of na-
tions which have shaken off the
frustration of the past to enter on
the universal heritage of freedom
and the pursuit of happiness.

In each of us the experience of
the past has created particular
capacities which must be placed
at each other's disposal and at the
disposal oT the world. Individual-
ly these capacities are ineffective;
pooled, they are a mighty and
beneficent force. We have in com-
mon the enthusiasm and creative
energy of reborn nations; let us
also hold in common our special
gifts and the special results of our
separate and peculiar histories.

Sometimes an error can illu-
minate a situation more vividly
than an accurate statement.

For example, think of the im-
port of that famous typographical
mistake by which the United Na-
tions was once rendered "Untied
Nations." People who saw the
misprint were prone to say, "Yes,
ttie nations are untied. When will
they finally be united?"

Sometimes the eloquent error
is a stumble into an idiom. For
example, they tell the story of the
youngster whose mother pleaded
with him to behave properly. "I'll
be good for a quarter," bargained
the boy, and, according to this
tale, the mother replied, "Why
don't you be like your father and
be good lor nothing?"

In a sense, the High Holydays
urge us to be "good for nothing."
Other holidays are associated
with some event or some individ-
ual. On Lincoln's Birthday we
feel the tug to be virtuous because
Lincoln was. On Purim and Chan-
ukah we are inspired to be brave
because of what Esther and Mat-
tathias did for us and our faith.
On Sukkos, Passover and Shavuos
the majestic figure of the Great
Liberator appears, almost sub-
liminally, appealing to be "good
for Moses."

But on the High Holydays we
are importuned to be "good for
nothing." Be righteous not as a
result of the stimulation of some
stirring episode or personage, but
for the sake of righteousness it-
self, the satisfaction which comes
from being properly attuned to
the divinity within us.

Like comment of the mother in

the story who asked the child to
be "good for nothing," so another
lapse which once actually happen-
ed opens up new insights with
regard to the meaning of the High
Holydays.

In a small town a weekly news-
paper told its readers, as all news-
papers do these days, about the
holydays. But when the article ap-
peared, there was a lamentable
verbal mix-up, and the paper an-
nounced that the ten days of
penitence began with "Rosh Kip-
pur" and ended with "Yom
Hashanah."

After the first chuckle, one can
examine this mistake with a cer-
tain degree of spiritual profit, and
scrutiny will spur some interest-
ing observations.

Rosh Kippur would he trans-
lated, "Beginning of Atonement."
And that might make a good
name lor the observance at that,
Actually Yom Kippur for many
people, is the only time for in-
dulging in remorse in depth.
True, Yom Kippur is an import-
ant day, and it is commendable
that it is observed by the masses,
v. ho flock to their pews for pray-
er and song. But we do not really
carry out the mandate of Judaism
il we confine our admission of
fault and failing to that one day.
It is too much to load on one
worship experience. The mistake,
Rosh Kippur, can remind us,
therefore, that properly Judaism
pleads with us merely to make
Yom Kippur rosh kippur, the be-
ginning of the process of asknow-
ledging our misdeeds, the com-
mencement of the chain reaction
of reflection on our deficiencies,

Mrs. Molly Fallick Gelberman,
43 years old, wife of Rabbi Alex-
ander Gelberman of Congregation
Beth Israel, died after a protracted
illness at a localTiospital. The fam-
ily had moved to Asheville six
years ago from Lakeland, Fla., and
were very popular with their con-
gregation. The Rabbi was recent-
ly elected to serve for a term of
seven years. The children were do-
ing well in high school and were
popular with all their classmates.
Richard who hoped to graduate
from High School next year plan-
ned to enter State College after
graduation. A few weeks ago, quite
unexpectedly, the Rabbi de-
veloped tuberculosis and was sent
to the Western Carolina Sanitar-
ium at Black Mountain and the
children went to their aunt in
Miami, Fla. On August 20th ser-
vices for Mrs. Gelberman were
held at Donn & Williams Funeral
Home and the Rabbi's who offi-
ciated were Dr. Sidney Unger of
Asheville Alexander Gelberman
and Simcha Kling of Greensboro.
Burial was in the Lou Pollock
Memorial Park located in West
Asheville. Mrs. Gelberman was
survived in addition to her hus-
band by two children a son Rich-
ard, 16, and a daughter Sherin, 13,
who was Bas Mitzvah this past
May. Also several sisters and a
brother who live in New York and
Florida.

Rabbi and Mrs. Sidney Unger
have just returned from their sum-
mer vacation spent on Long Is-
land visiting their son and family.

They also visited Oquinquit
Maine.

Richard Rosen, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Philip Rosen, was bar mitz-
vah at Beth Israel Synagogue on
September 2nd and 3rd. A recep-
tion was held in the Jewish Com-
munity Center following the Fri-
day night services, and a brunch
followed the Saturday morning
services.

Dr. Samuel Nunez

(Concluded from Page 15)

before hearing from the Board,
he had already granted to some
of them lands in Savannah.

The instructions from London
were unfavorable. The Trustees
did not propose "to make a Jew's
colony of Georgia." The Govern-
or ignored the orders and replied
that Jews were by no means a
detriment to the settlement. He
also thanked publicly Dr. Samuel
Nunez for saving the plague
stricken victims of all denomina-
tions and stamping out the epi-
demic. For without the refugee
from Lisbon, there might not have
been enough left to carry on Col-
onization in Georgia.

Seven hundred Americans who
settled in Israel last year brought
into the country a total of $2,000,-
000, it was disclosed in Jerusalem
by the Jewish Agency. This does
not include money brought in by
professionals who settled in Israel
through the Agency's Professional
and Technical Workers Aliya.

because of their phenomenal na-
tional feats-better as well.

As a matter of fact, Israeli
youngsters are different from
young people everywhere in the
world. It woidd be hard to prove
that the young people of other
countries would not behave as
the Israeli youth have done, un-
der the same circumstances.

What makes them a unique, and
rather special product in today's
noild is due to one thing. That
is their study of the Bible. The
Bible is taught in every school in
the country as a subiect. Israeli
children begin their study official-
ly from Grade 2, and they con-
tinue until they leave high school.
The Bible is the book from which
they learn the history of their
people and their land, and it is the
book from which they learn much
of their literature. Thus nothing
foreign is imposed on them. It is a
living part of their language and
their country.

My childien were brought up in
the lovely village of Kiryat Amal
in Lower Galilee. Mt. Carmel
stretched across the sky line, in
full view, the high point from
which the Prophet Elijah called
down fire to confound the false
prophets of Baal.

All around us were the re-
mnants of the oak forests of Bibli-
cal times. This is a special oak,
called the Holy Oak, and it has
varieties of enchanting acorns. I
kept looking in the Bible for
some reference to this oak. At
last I was thrilled to find that
Absalom was killed when he took
shelter in an oak forest. If you
remember, his long hair got
caught in the branches. This was

in the mountains of Ephraim. The
mountains of Ephraim were not
far from where we lived, and these
special oaks also grew there.

That was enough for me. I used
to show all our visitors these fasci-
nating acorns, and tell them my
wonderful discovery. One day my
boys were in the room when I was
telling this story to a visitor from
abroad. David, my youngest, who

a full-length biography (in any
language) of this fascinating
writer, leader and communal
worker.

delicatessen smorgasbord was ser-
ved and old and new friends got

EDITORIAL

(Concluded from Page 5)

memorates the temporary shelters which our ancestors used in
the wilderness, in their exodus from Egypt. It reaffirms the
principal of man's frailty and utter dependence upon the Al-
mighty for all material blessings. It expresses man's apprecia-
tion and gratitude for the bounties of Nature.

If a people is to have a future, it must perpetuate its
eternal values in the present, and it must forge a link with
its historic past.

A Crowning Insult

We sincerely trust that there is no foundation for the re-
port current that the United States is planning to support the
United Arab Republic for representation in the United Na-
tions Security Council.

If this were to eventuate it would be a move that should
be repudiated by every fair-minded citizen of our country,
regardless of his religious belief.

A statement sent to our Department of State by I. L.
Feuer, National Commander of the Jewish War Veterans of
the U.S.A. adequately covers the situation, Mr. Feuer stated:

"This dictatorship," he said, "which has flouted Security
Council and United Nations Assembly decisions, among them
its refusal to implement the international character of the
Suez Canal, the refusal to negotiate a peace with its neighbor,
Israel, and its constant effort to keep a state of tension in the
Middle East, is certainly enough evidence that this nation
does not have the responsible attitude that is required for the
Security Council."

Commander Feuer pointed out that "the support of such
a nation for the post would be a violation of American tradi-
tion and principle. It would seem that we have not profited
from the lessons of the reverses occasioned by our support of
other dictatorships in the past."

"President Nasser of the United Arab Republic is trying
to influence the entire Middle East with anti-American propa-
ganda, while soliciting favors and good will. It is offensive to
any sense of justice to support such a man and such a govern-
ment for a seat on the Security Council which is charged with
the maintenance of world peace," he said.

Israeli Youngsters

(Concluded from Page 23)

was 8 years old then, suddenly
piped up and said, "Why that's
not true, Mummyl"

We produced our English-He-
brew Bible, and we found that we
were both right. According to the
English version, the tree that
Absalom got caught in was oak.
Oak in Hebrew is "alon." Accord-
ing to the Hebrew text, which is,
of course, the original version,
the tree was an 'aylah."

"But what's an aylah?" I asked,
off he ran to the woods at the
back of the house. He came
running back with a spicy
smelling branch of a tree
which I knew very well by
sight, but had never heard it called
by name. We looked up it's Eng-
lish name in the dictionary. The
tree that poor Absalom got caught
in was not the oak, but the tere-
binth tree. That is the same tree
that Saul, the first king of Israel,
sat under when he Field his court.
And here it was, growing in our
back yard, just like any ordinary
tree!

It is not surprising to find
youngsters in elementary schools
in Israel who are more at home in
the Bible than many people who
have sweated to get University de-
grees in the subject in other coun-
tries. "Gihgy," a 19-year-old pri-
vate in the Engineering Corps is
an example.

Gingy was one of the volunteers
who took part of the famous ex-
pedition to the Tudean Desert
when Prof. Yadin found the Bar
Kochba letters. This stalky, red-
headed little chap showed such
phenomenal strength in shifting
boulders about in the cave, they
nicknamed him "The Human
Bull-dozer." When they found the
first scrap of parchment scroll
with a few words written on it in
ancient Hebrew, Prof. Yadin
hadn't time to whip out his con-
cordance, to check its source, when
Gingy called out "Psalm s,"
another youth called out "Num-
ber 15," and both of them recited
the missing passages to the end.

I met Gingy at a reception given
by the President and Mrs. Ben Zvi
in honor of the expedition. He
was about 5 feet 5 inches tall. His
arms were like the thighs of a
steer. Although he had come from
North Africa as a child, with his
flaming red hair, broad, freckled
face, and good natured smile, he
looked like an Irish navvy.

On the last day of school before
Yom Kippur, my 7-year-old Jona-
than came home and said to me:
"Our teacher told us that we must
ask pardon of everyone Ave hurt
or caused trouble to in this last
year. We asked her pardon for be-
ing so noisy. She asked our pardon
for being cranky with us, and the
boy who threw me down last week
and cut my leg came up and asked
me to pardon him."

Then Jonathan asked my par-
don for various misdemeanors, I
asked his, we exchanged kisses,
there was a one-way transfer ot
chocolate, and we both felt well
on the way to a happy New Year.

Helen Goldman and son Charles
spent about ten days in Birming-
ham, Ala., where fhey attended the

1 ith.

Mort Lerner's mother, Mrs. Ro-
bert Lerner of Baltimore, Md.,

man, Bertha Stein and Bernice
Lerner were hostesses at a lovely
luncheon at the Country Club.
Eighteen women were present, and
the honoree received gifts of silver
in her pattern, as well as a lovely
piece in crystal.

I flew down to Miami Beach the
early part of August to spend two
weeks with our daughter, Betty
Lou, who lives there.

The Abe Ereemans have had
Roslyn's mother, Mrs. Kitty Slovak

Rosh Kippur and Yom Hashonah

(Concluded
pi-chastisement for our short-
comings, and determination to
elevate the level of our behavior.

And what thoughts are suggest-
ed by the typographical error (we
almost wrote typographical ter-
ror), Yom Hashanah? In Hebrew
that would mean, "The Day of
the Year." Alas, it is all too true
that for multitudes the High
Holyday session is the day for
worship, frequently the only day.
So Yom Hashanah has a sardonic
note to it. The mistake seems to
chide us, as though it were ask-
ing, Do you really think that the
obligations of Judaism can be dis-
charged in p single sitting? Do
you cold-bloodedly expect to dis-
regard and abandon your faith
for the entire year? Do you think
you can cram into one period of
introspection the work needed for
year-round moral rehabilitation?
Indeed, for many people Rosh
Hashanah is virtually "Yom
Hashanah" the one occasion dur-
ing the entire year when they
come to grips with themsevles,
their progress in life, their con-

science, and their Maker. For so
many events we prepare at great
lengths. Think of what we do to
get ready for a dimmer party,
birthday party, a trip. And yet
for a reunion with our Creator, for
the journey towards His spirit,
we often do little during the
course of the year in the way of
proper preparation. We save it
all for the one time of the year.

Wisdom, they say, often emerges
from the tongues of children. Odd-
ly enough, light can also be shed
occasionally by slips of the ton-
gue. Perhaps those we have ex-
amined will save us from serious
slips on the path of life.

son, Richard, on June 10 and 17,
respectively. To Elizabeth's joyous
event came her grandparents, Mr.
and Mrs. J. I. Teder, of Miami,
Fla., while Richard's was made
memorable by the attendance of
his grandfather, Mr. George Gold-
berg, of Portsmouth, Va., and
many other out-of-town relatives,
including Mr. and Mrs. Morton
Levy and son, of Portsmouth; Mrs.
Rose Rich, Mr. and Mrs. Joe

Rabbi Samuel Friedman who
made the editorial page of the
local newspapers when he spoke
before a local civic group and
urged all the people to take a
greater interest in local political
life, and align themselves with
progresive organizations that
promote our area, and be little
chambers of commerce in our-
selves. Rabbi Friedman feels
strongly that our thinking, atti-
tudes and spirits must be exuber-

glowing.

conference, "Youth Today, Adults
Tomorrow." Each day consisted of
a lecture by Rabbi Max Stauber.
Some of the titles of the lectures
were: "The Role of the Jewish
Youth in Everyday Society," 'The
Jewish Youth— Relations to Cus-
toms and Ceremonies," 'The Jew-
ish Youth— Relationship to Its
Family," and "The Problems of
Jewish Youth in Small Towns."
Our director, Gerald Waitman,
lectured to us on "Leadership
Principles" and "Traits of Leader-
ship." We were also privileged to
have several guests, Mr. George
Ackerman, Fort Mill, S. C, who
spoke to us on 'The Jewish Youth
—A Member of the Community,"
and Mr. Echud BenYehude whose
topic was "The Modern Hebrew
Language." All of these interest-
ing lectures were followed by
question and answer periods. Dis-
cussion groups were also held and
reports were given by each leader
of the group.

The morning was started by at-
tending services. Although for
some of the girls, it was started by
attending a most enjoyable physi-
cal fitness class led by our dance
instructor, Miss Marian. The rest
of the afternoon was spent in com-
petetive athletics between blue and
white teams. A daily newspaper,
reviewing the days events, was put
out for the enjoyment of both the
members and the staff. The even-
ings were concluded by a social
enioyed by everyone.

The Conference proved to be
both educational and beneficial to
all those attending and we are all
looking forward to next year's
Conference.

The Israel Philharmonic - A Nation's
"Best Ambassador Abroad"

BY HENRY

When Carlo Maria Giulini
mounts the podium at New York's
Metropolitan Opera House and
lifts his baton on Sunday even-
ing, Oct. 16th, the Israel Philhar-
monic Orchestra will launch not
only its second American tour, but
the world famous orchestra will
begin its twenty-fifth anniversary
year.

Twenty-five years ago, in a con-
verted exhibition hall adjacent to
the Tel Aviv port, another great
Italian, the late Arturo Toscanini,
probably the world's greatest con-
ductor, similarly lilted a baton
that started a group of 72 refugee
musicians on their way to fame.

Maestro Toscanini had gone to
Palestine to lead a new orchestra
organized by Bronislaw Huberman
from among the survivors of Na-
zism. He gave his great prestige
and talents not only to the musi-
cians he had known in the leading
concert halls of Europe but also
as an expression of his fierce hat-
red of dictatorship and his faith
in the development of a Jewish
state.

Now, one of the world's renown-
ed orchestras, the Israel Philhar-
monic comes to these shores for a
seven week tour of the United
States, Canada and Mexico under
the auspices of the America-Israel
Cultural Foundation and the J. M.
Kaplan Fund Inc. The world's
leading impressario, S. Hurok, has
assumed the management of this
tour which will take the orches-

W. LEVY

tra to some thirty communities.

The American tour, which will
be inaugurated with a concert and
ball to be attended by leading dig-
nataries of the world's great
powers, will be dedicated to the
United Nations. And this is em-
inently appropriate both because
by its make-up the Israel Philhar-
monic is a United Nations in mini-
ature, and the principal sponsor of
the American tour, the America-
Israel Cultural Foundation, has
long been dedicated to the cause of
cultural exchange as an aid to
world peace.

The Orchestra was founded at
the height of the Arab riots of
1936 and it has seldom played
against a peaceful background. But
untoward events have not been al-
lowed to interfere with its music
making. It has had to travel in
armored trucks, it has often been
fired upon but it has always got
to the place of the concert. Only
when Jerusalem was severed from
the rest of the country in 1947-48
did concerts cease there and then
as soon as the beseiged city could
be reached, the Israel Philhar-
monic Orchestra brought its music
to the capital. In the World War
it grave over 160 concerts for the
Allied Forces. In the Israel War
of Independence it gave many con-
certs for troops in remote places.
A memorable concert was that
with conductor Izler Solomon
given at a military camp on the

Israel Helps Ghana Go To Sea

Two generations ago, when
Britannia was still undisputed
ruler of the seas, ships of many
flags had about them the distinc-
tive air of Liverpool, Bristol,
London or Glasgow. British
merchant mariners in charge of
vessels of Chinese, Greek, Turkish
or other foreign ownership were
a common feature in ports around
the world. Even now, most Egyp-
tian merchant ships are staffed
largely by Britishers. And Israel,
during the early years of her in-
dependence, employed a number

of experienced British captains,
mates and engineers to man her
first ships while Jewish sailors were
learning the arts of navigation
and seamanship.

Israel's merchant fleet today is
the second largest in the Middle
East in point of tonnage and
easily one of the most modern and
efficient in the world. It is man-
ned almost entirely by Israelis.
This alone is a mark of great pro-
gress and a source of pride to
Israelis and Jews all over. But
there is more. Israel, in a small

way to be sure, is doing what
Britain, with all of her vast sea-
power and centuries of maritime
tradition, has done. She is loaning
her deck officers and engineers
to other nations that are just be-
ginning to go to sea.

1 learned of this at first hand
recently when I visited a small
freighter docked at fndia Street
in the Greenpoint section of
Brooklyn. The ship's name was
"Tano River" which meant noth-
ing to me until I was informed
that the Tano is a major river of
West Africa. Her flag was one
which I had never seen before:
green, gold and red with a black
star in the center, the flag of the
newly created Republic of Ghana.
The occasion of my visit was a
press reception given by the
Ghanaian Ambassador to Wash-
ington, WTilliam Q. M. Halm, to
mark the opening of a new cargo
service between his nation and
the United States. I discovered to
my surprise and delight that the
co-host was the ship's Master, one
Sholem Dulitzky, a native of Haifa
whose parents came to Israel from
Odessa and who has been serving
in Israel's merchant navy ever
since the state was formed.

Captain Dulitzky is 36, a husky,
barrel-chested fellow with twink-
ling brown eyes, round rosy face
and a carefully trimmed brown
beard that could belong to a yeshi-
va student or to a veteran mariner
of the old salt school. Sitting in
his comfortable stateroom, puff-
ing a large cigar, he explained in
gruff, good-humored voice how
he happened to be in command of
this particular freighter and her
crew of forty, most of them young
Negroes from Ghana.

Captain Dulitzky is employed
by the Zim Israel Navigation Com-
pany, Israel's largest shipping
firm which has a globe-circling
fleet of its own. When indepen-
dence of Ghana was proclaimed
in March, 1957, one of the first
goals of the new nation, stated bv
Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah,
was the establishment of a mer-
chant marine. Ghana exports co-
coa, bauxite and other products
in large volume and hoped to be
able to carry a fair share of these
valuable cargoes in ships of her
own. A steamship company was
founded, the Black Star Line,
Ltd., in which 40 per cent of the
capital was supplied by the Zim
Lines. Israel also sent instructors
to establish a nautical school for
Ghanaians at Accra, capital of

the country. The Zim fleet loaned
a number of its officers to staff
the deck and engine departments
of the Ghanaian ships. Captain
Dulitzky was selected as a loan
skipper because he had command-
ed Zim ships in the West African
trade and is throughly familiar
with that part of the world. He is
at present on a year's leave from
Zim.

The captain is fluent in English
as in his native Hebrew. He also
likes to speak Yiddish, which
makes him a bit unique among
Sabras. He has a good working
knowledge of the various native
dialects along the West African
coast but runs his ship in English.

"We have rather a mixture of
nationalities aboard," he told me.
"All deckhands and most engine
room ratings are Ghanaian. My
first mate is a Pole, my third a
young Dutchman and I've got an
Italian second engineer, a sort of
United Nations in miniature."
The "Tano River's" small but
cozy lounge was packed by now.
There was an interesting buffet
table where, in addition to the
usual sandwiches and drinks, a
number of steaming hot native
dishes of Ghana were on display
for the tasting. These had been
prepared by the wives of several
members of the Ghanaian consul-
ar staff in New York who came
aboard the ship bright and early
and did their cooking in the gal-
ley. Toasts were in order all
around. Perhaps the most stirring
was that offered by Ambassador
Halm to the State of Israel "to
which we owe so many thanks,
for without its generous, unselfish
help, this ship would not be here
todav."

The appoi. tment of Rabbi Louis M.
Levitsky of South Orange, N. J. as
Chairman of the Board of Governors
of the National Academy for Adult
Jewish Studies has been anounced by
Bernath L. Jacobs, president of the
United Synagogue of America.

Where Handicaps Don't Handicap

BY BERNARD POSTAL

"I did it, T did it," shouted
Doris, a loveable blonde ten-year
old after she had succeeded in
making up her bed.

Pauline, age 5, was splashing
happily in the blue green pool
but her clumsy Mailings showed
ihe was just learning how to swim.

Gathered around the campfire
for a cookout, Frank nudged Peter
and Hank, and said, "Look, Milt
is making his own hamburger.
How do you like that!"

Nothing unusual about any of
these incidents except that Doris
s mentally retarded and Pauline
md Milt are blind. Once they
would have been numbered
among the hidden children —
more than 1,000,000 boys and girls
suffering from some physical,
mental or emotional handicap —
because they had few or no oppor-
unities for the kind of group
experience normal to all children.

Today, happily, the world of
all children is opening to more
md more handicapped youngsters
:hrough the experimental recrea-
ion programs conducted by Jew-
sh Community Centers and YM-
VWHAs affiliated with and served
by the National Jewish Welfare

Board. As Moses led the Jews out
of spiritual and physical enslave-
ment to the freedom of the
Promised Land, so Jewish Com-
munity Centers and YM-YWHAs
are breaking down the gates of
tradition and prejudice that bar-
red handicapped children from
the freedom to enjoy group living
and playing with their non-handi-
capped contemporaries.

The country's first scientifical-
ly controlled integration of blind
youngsters into summer camps for
sighted children was first accom-
plished three years ago by Bronx
House and Camp Wei-Met in co-
operation with the New York
Guild for the Jewish Blind. These
camps have demonstrated that
blind children can be served with
in the existing facilities. At these
camps the blind children partici-
pate in the full camp program,
including handicrafts, dramatics,
camp signs, hiking, swimming,
campfire building, ballplaying
and even instruction in the use of
saws, hatchets and penknives.

The experience in these camps
has proved that there is little or
no need for special equipment,

Science Is Transforming Israel

The American Jewish TIMES-OUTLOOK

6»

VRBA EBAN

Each year, a hundred thousand
visitors from Israel and abroad
find their way to Rehovoth. As
they walk across our lawns, and
through our buildings, ;nd pay
homage at Dr. Weizmann's grave,
they fall captive to a sentiment
compounded both of gentleness
and awe. It is probable that fe
amongst them have a clear know-
ledge of what is involved in funda-
mental scientific research. But
their image of Israel's nationhood
is indelibly marked by what they
witness here. By 'his very existence,
the scientific worker gives his na-
tion an atmosphere of intellectual
discipline, truth, and spiritual in
tegrity. A national society which
contains such men, however few,
is different in its essential nature
from a national society in which
such men do not live and work. In
Israel's renascent life the Weiz-
mann Institute of Science is a
factor of transformation, not
merely of adornment.

It is only now, at the outset of
-)tir Insitute's second decade, that
ts centrality in Israel's life is be-
aming manifest throughout our
nation and the world. The vision
:>f its founder belongs more to Is-
rael's national future than seem-
ed to be the case a few years ago.
Between the blinding flash at Hir-
ashima and the surge of man's
groping fingers into outer space,
ur generation has come to learn
nuch about the primacy of science
md its life and destiny. The or-
lerliness of nature is the largest
5f all certainties yet few men
:ould have predicted a generation

By Abba Eban

Mr. Eban, President of the Weizmann Institute of Science, has recently
been elected an honorary member of the American Academy of Arts and
Sciences. He is the initiator of the International Conference on Science in
the Advancement of New States to be held in Rehovoth.

Virginia Slate

For over five generations BUCKINGHAM slate has
been selected as the best roofing material for many
of the outstanding examples of architecture throughout
America. No machine made roofing product has ever
surpassed the charm and permanence of this hand-
crafted product of nature.

A BUCKINGHAM slate roof has many EXTRA-
VALUE features . . . unfading color and lustre can be
matched after any length of time, protection from
elements for life of building, no costly repairs, no ulti-
mate replacement, higher resale value, insurance and
loan advantages, safe fire protection, lowest average
absorption and highest resistance to acids of any slate
in America.

Proven by 150 continuous years on the roof without
fading or decay, BUCKINGHAM slaje can be specified
with confidence. Architects may select from a wide

range of sizes and thicknesses, and prompt shipments
can be made from the ample stocks of our quarries at
Arvonia, Virginia.

Because of their insistence upon quality materials
today, more architects than ever are giving their
clients the benefit of this lifetime roof economy. See
our catalog in Sweet's Architectural File, or write
for samples and information.

of all certainties yet few men
could have predicted a generation
ago how the insights and con-
clusions of laboratories would
transform the lives of men, the
conditions of their inter-relation-
ship — and indeed the very con-
tours of their knowledge. In this
sense, the influence of Rehovoth
on Israel's future is still incalcul-
able. ,

As the second decade advances,
the role of scientific research in
Israel's future will become even
more pervasive than hitherto. Our
economic planning accords an in-
creasing weight to industrial de-
velopment. The perfection of in-
dustrial products, especially in a
world where publicity and com-
petition create constant obsole-
scence, can only be achieved by a
close alliance between science and
industry. There will be a greater
market for scientific research
workers, both fundamental and
applied, than is to be found
through their absorption in aca-
demic institutions. In plastics, elec-
tronics and plant genetics, the In-
stitute has already Grossed the
somewhat blurred line dividing
fundamental research from its ap-
plication.

At the same time it is clear that
scientific research and application
rank high amongst the fields in
which Israel is destined to co-
operate with other nations
The scientific movement of our
age is not the monoply of the
established scientific centers in
the West. Israel may be destined
to become the meeting-place in
which the contemporary scientific
movement intersects with the na-
tional liberation movements of
the neighboring continents. The
political and juridical inequali-
ties which used to exit between
nations in the West and the East
are disappearing fast. But the dif-
ferences in levels of knowledge
and of technical and economic
progress could create tensions, en-
vies and rancors no less sharp. Is-
rael is an instructive example of a
pioneering community starting out
from austerity and economic
hardship, but nevertheless achiev-

ing an honorable place in the
world's scientific community and
vigilantly us i n g the scientific
method in the solution of her ur-
gent material problems. The eager
response, both ol eminent scien
tists and of leaders of developing
nations, to the invitation to attend
our i960 International Conference
indicates how strongly the need of
this encounter is felt on both sides.
Our nation stands at a crossroad
not only in geography but also in
the world of ideas. Access to mod-
ern science and technology, and
devotion to political democracy
mark us as a Western nation. But
we are an African-Asian people by
geographical fortune, as well as in
terms of our recent national free-
dom, and our need to struggle
hard against scarcities and handi-
caps. Perhaps no other nation in
the world is more strongly marked
by this fruitful duality. Here in
the heart of the Middle East at
the point where Africa, Asia and
Europe converge, there has arisen
since the beginning of its days that
political statehood is only one part
of a nation's destiny. National
freedom may well peter out in
disillusion and despair, unless it
is accompanied by fruitful vision
of economic, social and scientific.

Our institute will not change its
essential nature as a center for

form Jewish layman and a leader

religious, welfare and refugee
causes, has accepted the post of Gen-
eral Chairman of the nationwide

Do I really behave as one of the
brotherhood? Haven't I been push-
ing away other Christians because
they kneel at a Christian altar
other than mine? And what have 1
ever done to help out toward the
good works of my Jewish neigh-
bors?"

Because to some of the readers
it may appear that I am setting
myself up as a social sort of Jew
who feels bigly Jewish because he
has handed out $5 to a worthy
cause of Catholics, I should tell
you of something that frequently
is noticed in our town:

A prominent Jew dies. He
leaves a considerable estate which
isn't all for his kin. The news-
papers print the contents of his
will: It gives to Jewish causes and
to Christian also ... to Protest-
ant and Catholic hospitals, to
Protestant and Catholic orphan-
ages ... as well as to all the Jew-
ish institutions.

Parents of the blind children
found their offspring had not
only learned to do more things
for themselves, including swim-
ming, but had improved their
speech and lost some of their
1 right.

A day camp for partially-sight-
ed children at the Pittsburgh YM-
YWHA showed conclusively the
ability of the handicapped child
to take part in a wide range of
camp activities, including those
calling for muscular development
and competitive skill. In the pool
of the Philadelphia YMHA blind
youngsters are now being taught
to swim.

At the Cincinnati Jewish Com-
munity Center's day camp a total-
ly deaf child was successfully in-
tegrated into the program. A per-
sonalized approach to each camper
led the children to accept and
help the youngster who was dif-
ferent because of his handicap.
In Omaha, the Jewish Community
Center teaches deaf youngsters to
swim by combining the skill and
experience of a trained coach with
an expert in sign language who
transmits the instruction from
teacher to pupil.

The n e w 1 y-opened Mosholu-
Montefiore Jewish Community
Center in the Bronx is the first to
provide special construction facili-

ties to meet the needs of the ordio
pedically handicapped child. The
nursery school's doors are wide
enough to admit wheel chairs and
a special entrance and ramp from
the street facilitates going and
coming.

One of the most exciting recrea
tion programs for handicapped
children is sponsored by New
York's Educational Alliance. At
that Center there are groups for
the retarded and for victims ol
cerebral palsy, for the emotionally
disturbed and the blind, for the
cardiac and those with speech de
fects. So far as possible these ac
tivities are integrated with the
Educational Alliance's normal pro
gram. In every instance the Center
works closely with trained experts
from specialized agencies as well
as with parents who originally
asked for these programs. A simi
lar program is sponsored by the
Bronx YMHA where groups of
children suffering from cerebral
palsy are involved in gymnasium
and swimming pool activities

every Sunday morning to a special
religious class for children over 11
who are mentally retarded. This
is the group's only contact with
the Jewish community. The class
is organized on Sunday school
lines and has rabbinical aid.
Members of this Center group
have made substantial progress
and even manifested social con-
sciousness. One of them composed
an original prayer and the class
as a whole sent a contribution to
an institution for mentally retard-
ed youngsters in Israel.

Among the earliest post-polio
swimming classes were those
launched bv the Jewish Communi-
ty Centers in Portland, Ore., and
Omaha, Neb., and the Jewish
Young Men's and Women's As-
sociation of Rochester, N. Y. In
all three communities the program
so includes physical therapy
through water sports for children
suffering from the after-effects of
polio. Special programs for chil-
dren suffering from muscular dys-
trophy are conducted at the Bronx
YMHA. The nursery school of the
Toledo Jewish Community Center
has integrated a number of blind
children. In Minneapolis the Cen-
ter cooperates with the Jewish
Family Service in providing recrea-
tion programs for emotionally
disturbed children who are under
treatment but who do not require
institutional care.

New York's Federation of Jew-
ish Philanthropies offers recrea-
tional services at some of its camps
for children who are mentally re-

nity Center. The North Hills YM-
YWHA, a branch of the Associat-
ed YM-YWHAs of Greater New
York, has just launched a recrea-
tion program for retarded children
5-8. Older children and young
adults who suffer from some handi-
cap are programmed for at the
Educational Alliance and the New
Haven Jewish Community Center.

Handicapped people of all ages
were once limited as much by the
attitude of society as by their
handicaps. The gradual shift from
stress on disabilities to emphasis
on abilities lias resulted in wide-
spread recognition of the fact that
the physical, emotional, social and
mental needs of the handicapped
are no different from those of the
non-handicapped. The need to be
loved and wanted, the need for
achievement, to let out feelings
and to paricipate is common to all.

Group work services lor the
handicapped are becoming more
general and the integration of the
handicapped into recreational ac-
tivities for the non-handicapped
is steadily moving out of the ex-
perimental stage. The growing in-
terest in these services is revealed by
the mounting demands received by
JWB from Centers planning to
undertake such activities. The
Jewish Community Centers and
YM-YWHAs, who have done so
much pioneering in this Held,
have contributed immeasurably
toward assuring handicapped chil-
dren of their right to happiness
through freedom to enjoy normal
group activities.

Mindful of the physically deform-
ing; effects of asthma, Rabbi Chaim
Davidovich, Director of Religious
Education at the Jewish National
Home for Asthmatic Children at
Denver instructs these two young-
patients at the free, non-sectarian
Home that the lulav and esrog are
symbolic of a straight back and
strong heart that all courageous Jews
have developed through history.

Science Is Transforming Israel

(Concluded from Page 52)

pure research in which honest
scientific inquiry constitutes its
own justification. But the history
of our times is hound to knit
Rehovoth more closely into the
fabric of Israel's national life.
Similarly, the Institute is certari
to become increasingly "interna
tionalized" in response to the im-
pulses which determine Israel's
role in the world. And Israel's role
in the world is primarily one o!
reconciliation — between religion
and science; between the old in-
heritance and the new potential-
ity; between the contrasting pos-
sibilities of salvation and disastei
embodied in the newly discovered
sources of power between the na-
tional freedom of Asia and Africa,
and the science and democracy of
Europe and America.

It might have been possible to
envisage a State of Israel without
existance of a center devoted ex-
clusively to fundamental scientific
research. Even today, there are
more than fifty states which live,
work and survive without the
special grace which Rehovoth

conlers upon our society. But no
one can doubt that Israel with-
out the Weizmann Institute ol
Science would lack one of the
major dimensions of its national
and international personality. It
would have been incongruous il
the people which was the first to
be haunted by the question of
purpose and direction in the life
of nature and of man, were not
now to be centrally involved in the
quest for the great answers. The]
cjuest may be unceasing. There ii
no mystery in nature the solution
of which does not open the road to
a mystery greater than itself. There
comes a point when the scientist,
examining the origin of natural
forces, finds himself staring help-
lessly into the void. His helpless
ness becomes most profound when
he seeks to define, let alone ex-
plain, the meaning and nature of
life-. But the more he pursues th
quest, the more constantly will hi
be elevated by what Whitehead
once called "the habitual vision
ol greatness." It was in this land
after all, that this vision was seen
in its first, most durable radiance

captured that important poifrt.
Another unforgetable "Military
concert" was that at the Biblical
town of Beersheba when the en-
semble with Leonard Bernstein at
its head, played for thousands of
men of the Negev Forces.

From the day that Toscanini
conducted the orchestra's first per-
formance in Tel Aviv, the orch-
estra has been blessed with the
leadership of the world's finest
conductors and music's most out-
standing soloists, Among the noted
conductors, have been, to mention
just a few, the late Dr. Serge Kous-
sevitsky, Leonard Bernstein, Josef
Krips, Charles Munch and Eugene
Ormandy.

The Music Director and prin-

cipal conductor for the American
tour will be Carlo Maria Giulini.
His associate conductor will be Dr.
Josef Krips who will conduct six
concerts. Gary Bertini, young
Israel conductor will also accom-
pany the orchestra.

In all, the 1960 foreign tour of
the orchestra will see it playing
some fifty concerts in five nations
of the world— the United States,
Canada, Mexico, Japan and India.
In fulfilling its obligation as "Is-
rael's best ambassador abroad"— a
designation given it by the late
U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Mon-
nett B. Davis— the Israel Philhar-
monic will have travelled around

Co-Operation Among Small Nations

(Concluded from Page 17)

The peculiarity of Israel's his-
tory lies in the fact that we have
been able to produce in this small
area— at the crossroads of Asia and
Africa— a concentration of know-
ledge and techniques acquired in
the long ages of our dispersion.
You, our guests, bring to us a
youthful zest and an alertness with-
out which our particular abilities
must languish unused. Let us to-
gether, then, devise a new doctrine
of technical cooperation among

small nations. In more human
terms, we need one another, and
the recognition of this need is
the foundation of our future.

Whatever the past has placed in
our hands, we place in yours.
Whatever you can give us in eM
change, we will gratefully receive.

May these days be long and
happily remembered not only for
what we say here, but for the
deeds to which they are a prelude.

Builder of Bridges

Brother Bruno Hussar, of the
Dominican Order, has one great
ambition in life: to build bridges.
As a qualified engineer he learn
how to build concrete bridges over
rivers and valleys; since taking up
holy orders his desire has been to
build bridges over the gulf which
separates the Christian and Jew-
ish peoples. And the Hebrew Uni-
versity, he thinks, is a good work-
shop for bridges of this kind.

Although a French citizen,
Brother Bruno feels that his back-
ground is truly international. He
was born in Egypt 48 years ago of
a Hungarian father (who later be-
came Italian as the borders shifted
after World War I) and a French
mother. His mother tongue, more-
over, is English.

Brother Bruno first studied in
one of the Italian Colleges in
Cairo and later moved to France
to take up engineering. On join-
ing the Dominican Order— more
correctly known by its Latin name
"Fratres Predicatores"— he studied
theology for seven years in Paris.

Six years ago Brother Bruno
was sent by his order to Israel and
he felt immediately that he had
come to stay. "This is where I
wish to spend the rest of my days
working for closer relations be-
tween Christians and Jews." Last
year he enrolled at the Hebrew
University to study Hebrew— of
which he already has a fluent com-
mand—and Jewish History. His
particular field of interest is the
history of Jewish Christian rela-
tions in all perods; he will not
hesitate to point out that his own
order in centuries gone by played

an important part in the Inquisi-
tion, producing from its ranks the
Spanish Grand Inquisitor Torque-
mada, and that a form of repara-
tion may be justified. At the He-
brew University Brother Bruno
came to hear "the other side of
the story," and he is full of ap-
preciation for the objective way
in which this subject is being
treated by the teachers of Jewish
History on Givath Ram.

At the moment Brother Bruno
is the only Dominican at the He-
brew University— or in Israel for
that matter— but he hopes that
two more friars of his Order will
join him shortly. One of them
wishes to study Jewish philoso-
phy and the other Biblical He-
brew. When Brother Bruno left
France for Israel he asked his
Superior for permision to change
his formal title of "Father" to
"Brother." 'After all," he declar-
ed, "I hardly feel like a father to
the people of Israel, but I do feel
like a brother to one and all in
this country. "

ORIGINAL CREATIONS BY RABBI SOLOMON JACOBSON
TEMPLE BRITH ACHIM, PETERSBURG, VA.

A Brick At A Time

In a very distant time and coun-
try, there was a king who had the
finest palace in all the world. It
was the pride and joy of the nation
for it was the most massive, most
impressive, most enchanting such
palace ever. It became the symbol
of the nation and, as long as it
stood firm, it would bespeak pros-
perity and safety for the entire
land.

The country did prosper exceed-
ingly and every citizen of the land
was able to bu£ld a miniature
palace of his own. However, in this
copious construction by everyone
of his own little domain, they ran

into a shortage of bricks. Everyone
felt that, inasmuch as the king's
palace was so vast and strong, it
would not mean anything if they
made off with a brick or two from
the palace's foundations and walls.
Just a brick or two. Thus, everyone
made off with a brick or two, just
a brick or two. And the time came
when the king's palace fell to the
ground merely from a brick or
two, just a brick or two, taken day
by day by all the people.
Moral: What's a brick at a time
Pried from the foundation?

Thus brick by brick
Liberty is lost to a nation.

question in all its aspects. I refer
to the status of the Arab refugees,
the development of the waters of
the Jordan, and other relation-
ships between Israel and its neigh-
bors.

Finding a settlement of these
problems with justice and fairness
to all is important, not only to
Israel and its neighbors, but to the
peace and security of the United
States and the world.

For that reason, I intend if
elected President to give this prob-
lem the highest priority by assign-
ing responsibility for directing ne-
gotations in this field to a man
who has so magnificently demon-
strated at the United Nations that
he is one of the most skilled dip-
lomats of our times— my running
mate, Henry Cabot Lodge.

There will, of course, have to
be consideration by each side of
the problems of the other side.
The United States should be will-

ing to contribute generously to-
ward bringing about such a settle-
ment. It will not be easy, and I
promise no miracles but it is so
imperative to the nation's interest
that a solution be found that we
must devote our best efforts to that
end.

As I conclude this message, I am
reminded of the words of the late
John Foster Dulles, which express
so well my own attitude toward
U.S.— Israel relations. Those words
are:

"The preservation of the State
of Israel is what I regard as one of
the essential goals of United States
foreign policy."

The decision of the Central
Board of Hungarian Jews to pull
out from the World Jewish Con-
gress after three years of coopera-
tion was termed regrettable by Dr.
Nahum Goldmann, president of
the World Jewish Congress. In a
letter to the board, Dr. Goldmann
said he hoped "the day is not far
off when you and other Jewish
communities in Eastern Europe
will be in a position to renew your
cooperation with all Jewish com-
munities in the world through the
World Jewish Congress."

MRS. STANLEY J. REITZER, Correspondent

As the summer draws to a close,
Center members of all ages are
discussing the activities that oc-
cupied their time this season, and
the memories are fond ones.

The highlight of the summer
was the day camp at Camp Hil-
bert. This year, under the guid-
ance of Sherman Harris, the Cen-
ter's athletic director, and the
Camp Committee, headed by Rosie
Grossman and Inge Horowitz, the
camp served 202 different children
from two to eight weeks each. The
program, which featured a United
Nations theme, spotlighted many
special events, such as the junior
Olympics and rausi c-round-the-
world. The climax of the program
came in the final week at a gala
carnival with games of skill, re-
freshments, a water ballet, and
live pony rides. Many parents and
friends attended and observed
the camp in action.

The beautiful Camp Hilbert
facilities contributed to the success
of the tween and teen programs.
Tweens had a 4-day a week pro-
gram based at the Center, includ-
ing skits, tournaments, bowling,
dances, and parties. There was a
trip to Baltimore, visits from two
out-of-town groups, and a weekly
outing .at Camp Hilbert. A new
activity at these outings was the
weekly supper-time discussion pro-
gram which was led by adults and
proved both popular and worth-
while. Morton Norman and his
Tween Committee planned these
programs.

The teenagers had an excellent
opportunity to know Dick Gold-
stein, our new Program Director,
who will develop an integrated
and efficient system of inter-group-
cooperation for progra mming.
Stuart Grandis, new Presidents
Council chairman, has been lead-
ing the effort to develop a con-
stitution which will make it pos-
sible for the Council to serve the
teenagers and their clubs to best
advantage. Stanley Goldstein has
been heading another committee
to plan a cooperative pledge pro-
gram for the boys' groups. Herbert
Shapiro, chairman of the Adult
Committee which oversees the
teen program, has been concen-
trating on organizing a committee
which will broaden and improve
the activities available for this
age group.

The highlight of the season was
the Camp Hilbert picnic, where
nearly 100 teens had a barbeque,
swam, danced, and roasted marsh-
mallows at a roaring bonfire.

A call on the Jewish youth of
America to dedicate itself to the
development of a creative Jewish

"Of course," Mr. Sacks smiled

"I've been hearing a lot from
im these last few days," Mr. Win-

innoying Stanley. Calling him

"It was worrisome, I admit,"
vlr. Sacks admitted. "We didn't
mite know how to cope with it."

"Jim wants to apologize. Would
itaniey come over?" He waited,
lesitant.

Stanley did go over to Jim, and
he boys talked together.

At home, when Stanley return-

"Wasn't there one of our old

"That was Hillel."
"We've always taught Stanley to

"Now," concluded Mr. Sacks

a trip to Buckroe Beach as guests
at a picnic given by the Newport
News Golden Age Group. The
Grand Group Board, along with
workers for the National Council
of Jewish Women and their new
staff adviser, Hilda Altbush, are
now planning the fall program
which will be the biggest and best
in their history.

Saul Viener. president of the
Jewish Community Center, has
set his program committees to
work on plans for the coining sea-
son's activities, with refinement of
program as their primary goal.
Each committee is concentrating
on the development of new ac-
tivities of highest quality and in-
terest, and on revising current pro-
grams to bring out their full poten-
tial.

Hortense Wolf and Sadie Engel-

berg, with several sub-committees
to asist them, have designed new
programs to supplement the suc-
cesful adult activities schedule of-
fered last season. Definite plans
have been made for morning
g roups in painting, beginners
bridge instruction, choral singing,
and modern dance. Evening groups
will include beginners bridge in-
struction for men and women,
ballroom dancing for couples,
weekly duplicate bridge tourna-
ments for both newcomers and
seasoned players, and a music ap-
preciation class, as well as a litera-
ture study group.

A special feature of the adult
program will be the Tuesday
evening special events series. Be-
ginning early in October, a series
of four programs entitled "We
Elect a President*', will investigate
the potential effect of the election
on international, national, state,

and local affairs. These presenta
tions will be in the nature of ar
open forum to give the partici
pants a full opportunity to aii

The next event will be four Jew
ish Book Month programs dealing
with biographies of Jewish per
sonalities. Later in the year, a
family life series will be presented
also, classes in dramatics, compara
live religions, painting for men
and women, ceramics, and enam
eling, provided the membership
displays sufficient interest to su
stain such activities.

Plans are now being discussed
by the committee, Dick Goldstein
the new program director, and a
number of special groups through
out Richmond, for exhibitions re
lating to art, culture, and history

Newport News JWB

On the dreary, forbidding island
of Adak in the Aleutians, a rock
bound sentinel against Soviet
power — where the williwaws, the
80-knot Aleutian winds, sweep and
sandblast the quonset huts of this
American outpost, a little group of
American Jews in uniform took
time out to mark the High Holy
Days. Ten thousand miles or so to
the South, in the warmer Medi
terranean waters, you could also
see — if you had a magic carpet
the ancient prayers recited aboard
the mighty ships of the U. S.,
thirty of whose vessels sailed out
of Norfolk, Va., fully stocked with
Break-the-Tast supplies as well as
religious articles.

In addition, JWB provided for

GIs and hospitalized veterans are
over 370 full and part-time Jewish
chaplains, JWB-USO field staff
and 265 local JWB Armed Serv-

Once in a decade a great man
appears— a man with courage,
intelligence, and the vigor to do
the things that have to be done
for a nation's welfare and peace
in the world. Senator John F.
Kennedy believes in the need
for greatness. If you, too, be-

WHY THOUSANDS OF VIRGINIA
DEMOCRATS WILL VOTE FOR

NIXON-LODGE

BECAUSE

WE MUST HAVE a President who is qualified to lead
this Nation — and the Free World — through these
critical times and to wage an effective fight to protect and
strengthen America in the face of mounting Communist
pressures.

BECAUSE

Our next President and his Vice President must have ex-
perience, maturity and firmness in leadership, must know
and command the respect of world leaders and, above all,
must understand the nature of the Communist threat to our
very existence as a free country.

BECAUSE

We need leaders with the judgment, coolness and inner
force to stand up to — and not be bluffed or intimidated
by — the Red dictators. Our ne>*t President must strong-
ly and skillfully assert America's position in these times
of crisis.

BECAUSE

We all remember that it was Richard Nixon who spoke up
vigorously for America in the famous Moscow debate with
Khrushchev . . . and that it was John Kennedy who would
have "apologized" to Khrushchev over the U-2 incident.

BECAUSE

Vice President Nixon for 8 years has stood high in the
councils of government, has participated in hundreds of
critical decisions, has traveled to trouble spots of the world
in 54 different countries and has had to meet — on his own —
the same type of problems which will confront our next
President. Ambassador Lodge has been our chief represen-
tative in the United Nations, where he has been a respected
policy maker as well as an able, aggressive negotiator and
advocate for America. It cannot be denied that Nixon and
Lodge have incomparably greater experience in dealing with
the problems of the Cold War than have Kennedy and
Johnson.

BECAUSE

It makes no sense at this critical time to reject a tried and
tested leader in favor of a young candidate with no execu-
tive experience and no demonstrated capacity for leader-
ship, who shows a lack of understanding of the Communist
menace.

BECAUSE

THE 1960 DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM is the most
radical platform ever adopted by a major American
party. It violates principles dear to Virginia Democrats
It makes an unprecedented appeal to the special interest at
the expense of the national interest. This Platform calls
for a dramatic increase of control by the Federal Govern-
ment over every area of national life, reduces the States to
inconsequential satellites and promises vast "giveaways" to
almost every pressure group. It dishonestly calls for 12
billions of new expenditures without any increase in taxes.
It expressly and specifically pledges to abolish by Federal
fiat the right-to-work laws of Virginia and 19 other States,
and thereby force thousands of our workers into the "closed
shop" and the enforced payment of union dues. It con-
tains provisions for increased Federal direction of business
(large and small), and also for vast "welfare state" pro-
grams of many types which, in effect, constitute a plan
for the socialization of American life.

BECAUSE

Kennedy backs this left-wing, spendthrift and divisive
Democratic Platform 100f/<' ! In his acceptance speech on
July 15, he called it a solemn "pledge" and "a platform on
which I can run with enthusiasm and conviction." Again,
in a Los Angeles speech on September 9, Kennedy em-
phasized: "I am proud of our platform; I believe in our
platform".

BECAUSE

Kennedy is the "yes man" of Walter Reuther and the
national labor bosses. Kennedy acknowledged this when,
in his Detroit speech on Labor Day, he promised Reuther
and the bosses that "whatever you oppose, I oppose."
Indeed, Kennedy's record proves his subservience: Gover-
nor "Soapy" Williams, another Reuther protege, recently
boasted that "Senator Kennedy has a perfect record" on
15 key issues important to Reuther and Williams, while
Nixon was "right on only one of these issues" (New York
Times, September 6, 1960). Kennedy has consistently op-
posed measures designed to curb the union bosses and make
the unions truly democratic and responsible. If Kennedy
is elected President, he will not be free to act in the best
interest of all of the people. Both he, and the platform
which he supports enthusiastically, are committed to ac-
complish the selfish wishes of this small group of mono-
polistic union bosses.

BECAUSE

THE NOMINATION of Kennedy, as many leaders of
the National Democratic Party repeatedly proclaimed
prior to Los Angeles, was not in the best interest of our
'Country:

, Ex-President Harry Truman : "Senator, are you certain that
| you are quite ready for the country or that the country is
ready for you in the role of President in January, 1961?
I am greatly concerned and troubled about the situation we
are up against in the world now and in the immediate
i future. That is why I would hope that someone with the
greatest possible maturity and experience would be avail-
able at this time." (New York Herald Tribune, 7-3-60)

iSen. Robert C. Byrd (D-W. Va.) : "Kennedy lacks the
age and experience to be president in these perilous days.

! I find it difficult to be secure in the thought of his sitting
down with the Adenauers, the DeGaulles, the MacMillans

, and the Khrushchevs as our country wrestles with imnort-

; ant problems in the field of international affairs." (Balti-

t more Sun 4-14-60)

(Rep. Sam Rayburn (D-Tex.) : "It's easy for someone to say,
I T can lead a great cause,' but untested we cannot put faith
and confidence and our perpetuity in hands like that." (New
jYork Times, 7-14-60)

Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) : "His statements in regard
to campaign expenses are further evidence as to his lack
of qualifications for the Presidency. The American people
should make clear to Senator Kennedy that the White
House will never be put up for sale ... it is obvious that the
truth is not in him." (Baltimore Sun, 5-29-60)

Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (D-Tex.) : (Shouting to a Wash-
ington State Democratic Convention at Spokane) : "I am
not prepared to apologize to Mr. Khrushchev — I am not
prepared to send regrets to Mr. Khrushchev — Are You?"
(New York Times, 5-31-60)

Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-Min.) : In switching his con-
vention vote from Kennedy to Stevenson : "This is anything
else but a protest vote — it is concern for my country." (As-
sociated Press, 7-13-60)

Thus, Kennedy is condemned and his lack of qualifications
deplored — not only by Republicans, but by the leading
National Democrats who know him best!

BECAUSE

Kennedy has repeatedly shown his contempt for the South.
Prior to his nomination (while seeking left-wing support
in New York) , Kennedy boasted to the labor bosses that he
had "little support in the South" and if elected would
break "the present coalition of Southern Democrats and
Northern Republicans" (New York Times, June 18, 1960) .

BECAUSE

Robert Kennedy, also campaigning in New York for his bro-
ther, recently "assailed the Southern Democrats in Con-
gress," designated Senator Byrd and Representative Ho-
ward Smith of Virginia as "the chief culprits" of the past
session of Congress and accused both of these distinguished
Virginians of "deliberately sabotaging legislation" (Wash-
ington Star, August 26, 1960) .

BECAUSE

Although Kennedy sometimes talks one way in the North
and another in the South while seeking the votes he now
needs so desperately, Kennedy's record and the Democratic
Platform constitute a pledge to pass a series of punitive
Federal laws which would be the most flagrant invasion of
States' rights in our history. Thus, it is essential to the
South and all America that the Executive Branch of the
Federal Government remain moderately conservative and
free from radicals and extremists who would surely domi-
nate a Kennedy Administration.

BECAUSE

WE BELIEVE that Richard Nixon, a strong, decisive
leader, is uniquely qualified by his experience in
Congress and as Vice President to assume the duties of
the Presidency. As President Eisenhower has said:
"There is no man in the history of America who has had
such a careful preparation as has Vice President Nixon for
carrying out the duties of the Presidency . . . there hasn't
been a principal administrative meeting among the heads
of Government that he has not attended as an active parti-
cipant. He has gone on behalf of the United States, to
many foreign countries. And in every country he has
visited . . . the United States has gained many additional
friends."

BECAUSE

We resent the shameful charge made at Los Angeles and
repeated by Kennedy, in his campaign speeches, that the
United States has become a "second class power". President
Eisenhower (who is better qualified to judge than the inex-
perienced Kennedy) has solemnly assured us that America
is the most powerful nation on earth. Kennedy's irrespon-
sible charge is not only untrue, but is being used for sel-
fish political advantage to the detriment of our world po-
sition at a time when America is under relenting propagan-
da attack from the Reds.

BECAUSE

In 1952 and 1956 many thousands of Virginia Democrats
supported General Eisenhower for President — now they
believe Richard Nixon is best qualified to be his successor.
Join the thousands of DEMOCRATS who will vote for
NIXON AND LODGE.

PLAIN TALK

By ALFRED SEGAL

ALL ABOUT
"KITCHEN JUDIASM"

Oh, I'm so thankful to Rabbi
Samuel Rosinger of 2355 Rusk
Avenue in Beaumont, Tex., who's
doing this column for me. It's
a hot midsummer day and I'd
much rather be out there in the

ALFRED SEGAL

breezy coolness of a lake or
river than to be sitting at my
typewriter trying to think some-
thing for the column. It's a tough
life, writing a column, particular-
ly on a day so hot!

Well, I was laboring in vain, in
all this heat, wrestling for an idea
when, all of a sudden, I remem-
ber Rabbi Rosinger of Beaumont.
Sometime before he had sent me
a piece titled "Kitchen Judaism"
which was both scholarly and full
of fun ... all about kneidlach,
lokschen soup, borscht, etc.

Rabbi Rosinger thus was re-
sponding to one of my columns in
which I had written sentimentally
about "Kosher Grandma's Cook-
ing," I dug through the heap on
my crowded desk and there, deep
in it all, lay Rabbi Rosinger's
essay on "Kitchen Judaism."

This column hasn't room for it
all, but I feel so thankful to have
Rabbi Rosinger's wisdom, smiles
and eye-winks with which to fill
this column on this hot day. Says
he: "There was a time when pro-
tagonists of Reform Judaism con-
temptuously hurled at Orthodoxy
the epithet of Kitchen Judaism.'
This phrase contains a sneering
allusion to the large place the
dietary laws occupy in the scheme

of traditional Judaism. I, for one,
without being an epicure, consider
the slightest slur on the Jewish
kitchen as bordering on blasphemy
. . .A treatise of profound scholar-
ship could be written on the in-
fluence of the Jewish kitchen upon
the Jewish soul. I am convinced
that while Abraham's piety had a
great deal to do with the visit of
the angels to his tent, the irresis-
tible fragrance of Sarah's freshly
baked cakes floating in the air,
was in no small measure respon-
sible for the landing of the wing-
ed messengers under the terebinth
of Mamre."

Rabbi Rosinger goes on with a
delightful wink. (I like to see
rabbis winking rather than just
looking scornfully at our poor
sins.) The rabbi winks: "And so
throughout Jewish history piety
and pastry maintained an intimate
connection. The reason why Gen-
tile critics persist in regarding the
Rabbinic Sabbath with its intimate
observance and restriction a day of
unrelieved gloom, is due to their
ignorance of the supreme delight
with which the superb Sabbath
dishes saturated the soul of the
Jew. What Jew who has tasted the
chalent and kugel and other de-
lectable dishes which Kitchen
Judaism created, thinks of the
Sabbath otherwise but as a day
of intense joy and pleasure . . ."

The rabbi brings up Purim . . .
the occasion when we're so thank-
ful to Queen Esther, the Jewish
girl, whose persuasions saved the
Jews of Persia from that awful
Hainan . . . The rabbi says: "The
beauty and grace of Esther, yes . . .
but the strudel and the bagels and
the fladels which Esther fed her
loyal spouse . . . who dares deny?
. . . must have had their due share
in changing his majesty from a
rabid Jew-hater into a passionate
pro-Semite. What male, I pray,
would not have a warm heart for
a people that can produce such
heavenly pastry?"

Then Rabbi Rosinger looks at
Jewish homes all around. So
few divorces in them! He exults:
"If you want to know the truth,
thle felicity and permanency of
Jewish marriages are due to the
Jewish kitchen. If Gentile women
could cook as well as Jewish
house-wives, the divorce evil, the

solution of which baffles imprac-
tical moralists, would speedily van-
ish from the land. Kitchen Juda-
ism far from being an epithet of
scorn, is a crown of glory!"

Yes, and more, the rabbi says,
even the Reform Jews are taking
up kitchen Judaism which they
used to scorn. Says he: "Ever since
the community center has become
a vital adjunct of Reform Judaism,
Kitchen Judaism is very much evi-
dent in the Temple precincts, and
from all indications, it bids fair
to loom larger in the Reform
scheme of salvation than the place
it has ever held in the Orthodox
discipline. Ask any Reform Jew or
Jewess what are the most effective
means wherewith to induce people
to attend meetings of the congre-
gation or of any club or organiza-
tion connected with the Temple.
Is it to invite a silver - tongued
speaker, a thrushthroated singer or
any other distinguished entertain-

er? People have to be pulled with
ropes to listen to the performers.
They are surfeited with speeches.
But let the Temple sisters pre-
pare a good dinner or supper! The
sensitive Jewish nostril instincti-
vely responds to the aroma of the
traditional dishes. At no time are
the members in a more receptive
mood to listen to presidential
messages, reports of committees
and appeals for charities than
after the consumption of the de-
licious courses."

And the rabbis adds: "It is a
wonder to me that Reform rabbis
who constantly complain of the
chronic emptines of the pews,
have not yet hit upon the idea of
asking the Sisterhood to serve
after services an old-fashioned
meal."

Well this is about all the room
this column has for Rabbi Rosin-
ger's wise and winking piece. I'm

The date October 30th, i960 will be a red-letter day in
the archives of the Portsmouth, Virginia, Jewish Community.

It was on that date that the Gomley Chesed Congregation,
of Portsmouth, held a dinner celebrating the 70th anniversary
of the founding of the synagogue, and simultaneously honored
Julian Blachman as the "Man of the Quarter Century."

A 70th birthday is an important milestone in the life of
a group, just as it is for an individual who has achieved his
biblical span of life. An organization has to be nurtured and
cared for just as the child has to be guided through all of the
vissitudes of life. And, when a ripe old age has been reached,
those who have been responsible for the splendid growth are
to be congratulated and commended, just as the parents of the
individual are worthy of citation.

In paying tribute to Julian Blachman the congregation
has honored itself, just as much as it has honored the recipient
of its recognition.

May Gomley Chesed, and Julian Blachman. continue to
"grow from strength to strength."

Milton Weinstein

In the untimely passing of Milton Weinstein, on October
2nd, the Greensboro Jewish Community lost one of its most
dedicated members.

As president of Temple Emanuel, he had only just as-
sumed this role, after years of prior service. As president of
the Greensboro United Jewish Charities, he was performing
efficiently for an organization to which he had also given
prior service His loss in both capacities will leave a void dif-
ficult to fill.

His tragice demise at the early age of 53 deprives his fam-
ily and friends of a potent influence on their lives. The over-
flow attendance at his funeral rite in Temple Emanuel was
silent tribute to the love and esteem in which he was universal-
ly held. This should be a source of comfort and consolation to
those who knew him.

May his soul rest in peace.

Bermuda Joins The New Trends

Recent reports by the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai
B'rith indicate noteworthy progress in the direction of dimin-
ishing discrimination at the country's leading resorts, notably
in Florida.

Now comes a statement from the League giving a rosy
picture on what has been an outstanding sore-spot for these
many years — Bermuda, a British Crown Colony.

This report is based on personal observations of staff-
member Harold Braverman who recently visited this island
paradise. He talked with local merchants, officials and hotel

executives, and now advances the opinion that religious dis-
crimination there has dwindled to the vanishing point.

This is indeed significant, for it was not too many years
ago that the most ingenious schemes were activated to keep
Jews from Bermuda hotels. Official Bermuda has always claim-
ed that it had not part in these machinations, but that they
were the doings of travel and resort agencies. One such plan
used code words which identified for the hotel managers re-
ligions and races on applications for accomodations.

Mr. Braverman now finds all this changed. He reports a
definite desire on the part of all involved to make Jews welcome
to the island. He gives it as his opinion that the Bermuda
problem is no longer a religious one, but racial.

Of course Bermuda was never essential to the happines
of a Jew. However, it is a pleasant spot, endowed with all of
the attactive features of a resort, and it is at least nice to know
that we can go there, if we want to, without hindrance.

As in most similar instances credit must go to the ADL
for handling a difficult situation in exemplary fashion.

Who May Speak For Whom ?

The Eichmann case has again raised the important ques-
tion as to whether the State of Israel has the right to represent
itself as the authority to speak and act for world Jewry. Israel
has made this claim on other occasions, notably when the
Cologne incident of last December sparked a world-wide anti-
Semitic demonstration. At that time, David Ben Gurion sent
communications simultaneously to all countries, including the
United States, condemning the acts of vandalism that were
being perpetrated. While Jews all over joined in this con-
demnation, it brought up the question as to whether Israel
was justified in the action it took, inferring as it did, that it
was speaking for Jews everywhere.

The Anglo-Jewish Association of Great Britain, a non-
Zionist, (but not anti-Zionist) organization took exception to
the Ben Gurion communication; upon which Golda Meier
stated dogmatically that Israel would continue to protest all
actions that had to do with world Jewry.

Now comes the Eichmann case, with Israel's insistence on
its right to jurisdiction, and the World Jewish Organization
among others, is making the point that Israel alone has no
right to speak for the Jews of the world, nor to adjudicate cases
that involve Jews outside its own borders.

There is parallel confusion in our own country when a
voice is needed to speak for American Jewry. This leads us to
comment on the address made by Rabbi Israel Goldstein be-
fore the Rabbinical Assembly of America, in which he again
brings up the urgency of revitalizing the ill-fated American
Jewish Conference. Criticism has been made of this sugges-
tion, as we have from time to time reported, on the score that
such an attempt would fail now because no "crisis" exists.
It is felt by some that a crisis is a condition necessary to or-
ganization. While there might be some merit in this conten-

The former Eva Prager, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernst M. Prager, be-
came the bride of George Salo Stern, son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Stern, of
Nashville, Tenn., on September 4th, at Temple Israel, with Rabbi Joseph
Asher, of Temple Emanuel, Greensboro, officiating.

Let me start by extending to all
our good friends and neighbors,
from our entire community, a very
Healthy and Happy New Year.

Our Holiday services at Temple
Israel were conducted this year by
Mr. Jake Pressman of Charlotte,
who was ably assisted by Buddy
Guyes, Ben Shapiro and Dr. Solo-
mon Singer.

The Ben Shapiros had as their
guests for a week Mr. & Mrs. Leon-
ard Wolfe and daughter Beverly
of Raleigh, N. C, and during the

early part of October, Jett's cousin
Sidney Simon of Mobile, Ala., was
with them for about a week.

Buddy Guyes spent about a week
in Miami Beach, Fla., attending a
Style Show, at which time he also
visited with our daughter, Betty
Lou who lives there.

Sylvia Feit and Dot Kahn went
to Birmingham, Ala. for several
days to attend the wedding of
Rene Marcus, daughter of Yankee
and Seymour Marcus, who was
married on Sept. nth.

(Open letter from one reporter
to the other).

Dear Carolyn:

To think I had a hand in your
admission to Baptist Hospital the
weekend this column was due!
Some favor T did myself— I must
have been out of my cotton-pickin'
mind. But you called me at the
office one day and said, "Your
boss doctor wants you to get me
a bed so he can get this thing off
my foot. I'll have to be in for only
two days and since it's my foot and
not my head, I can still work with
you on the report." You know
when a double positive makes a
negative? "Yeh, yeh." Because next
thing I knew you were giving me
the exciting news about the newly-
arrived addition to the Rabbi Rose
family— Daniel Hyman, born Oc-
tober 6th— and as for anything else,
you said to count you out. This,
two days after the deadline yet!

Serves me right, I thought, for
opening my mouth and letting you
stick your foot in it. Nevertheless,
I stopped at your house after leav-
ing you "resting comfortably" with
all those good-looking interns and
residents, and just as you said, I
found the B.B.G. report in the
pink envelope — after ransacking
only four rooms! It went like this:

"The Gloria J. Horwitz Chapter,
B.B.G., got into full swing with
new officers as follows: Sheila
Lund, president; Sandy Kaplan,
vice-president; Beverly Davis, re-
cording secretary; Esther Hor-
witz, corresponding secretary; Mar-
lyn Saks, treasurer; Merel Silver-
man, reporter; Joanne Baer,
chaplain. Rabbi David Rose spoke
at a cultural program on the sub-
ject of Jewish education, which was
quite informative and interesting.
We are very happy that we have
several new members and are look-

ing forward to
successful year."

Nothing else in your mail was of
any help, although I did find a
note about the Morris Brenners
and the Phil Michaloves leaving
on a European trip sponsored by
the Chamber of Commerce. So I
next decided to make a few well-
placed phone calls — right to the
top. Elaine Simons, Council-Sister-
hood President, was glad to hear
from me and promptly offered the
good news about the birth of
Daniel Hyman to Rabbi David
and Vivian Rose. "Anything else?"
I asked. "I'll call you later," she
said. Becky Sindler, Hadassah
Chapter President, also bubbled
over — about the Rose baby. "Isn't
it wonderful," she said, "two darl-
ing little girls and now a boy!"
She, too, would call me back when
she could think of anything else.
Others I called also gave the glad
tidings about the new arrival
(needless to say, everybody is
thrilled about baby Daniel) and
after that I sat back and waited
for the promised phone calls. Well,
not exactly. Actually, I cleaned
the whole house, washed my hair,
baked a cake, read the Sunday New
York Times, and ironed the week's
laundry. The phone rang at last.
It was Elaine Simons with all the
details of the beautiful wedding
that took place at Temple Eman-
uel on October 8th when Ethel
Levin married Maury Bernstein of
Miami, Fla., with Rabbi Rose of-
ficiating. The bride, in dreamy
Dior blue chiffon, was given away
by her uncle Israel Levin of Roan-
oke, Va. John Soifer, of Winston-
Salem, was the best man, and Mrs.
Norman Maron, of Miami Beach,
was matron-of-honor. Guests were
from far and wide: Mr. and Mrs.
Israel Levin and Mr. and Mrs.
Bernard Levin and son, from

"Honor a man for wliat he is;
Rut honor him more for ivliat he
Does."

For the past ten months, these
words from the Talmud have ser-
ved as a source of inspiration to
the oficers and members of
the Gomley Chesed Congrega-
tion in their search for the man
who has done the most for the
Jewish and general communities
of Portsmouth in the past twenty-
five years— Gomley Chesed's Man
of the Quarter-Century. The
choice was not a difficult one to
make. One name suggested itself
to an overwhelming majority of
the members of the Congregation,
as they marked their ballots this
past June. The name was that of
Julian M. Blachman, who is not ,
only one of the most active and
outstanding members of the con-
gregation, but also finds time to
be a devoted worker in a variety
of phases of the General Com-
munitv of Portsmouth.

[ulian's selection comes at the
climax of the year-long celebra-
tion of Gomley Chesed's 70th An-
niversary. In recalling the seven-
ty years' history of the Congrega-
tion, remembering its early be-
ginning in the downtown section
of Portsmouth, its acquisition of
a building in 1900 which was to
serve as its home for fifty-five years,
and finally its completion of a new
Synagogue building in 1955 in the
rapidly growing suburban area of
the city, the Board of the Congre-
gation voted unanimously to have
the membership select the "Man of
the Quarter-Century". The bal-
lot, which every member of the
Congregation received, read as fol-
lows:

"Over the past 25 years, this
outstanding personality should
have the following qualifications:

(1) Outstanding in Synagogue
activity

(2) A leader in Jewish com-
munity work

(3) Presently active member of
Gomley Chesed Congrega-
tion

(4) Active and interested in
general community pro-
jects"

"Honor not a man for his pos-
sessions alone;

Honor him most for the use he
makes of them."

MAN of the MOTiTH

Julian Blachman

Portsmouth, Virginia

70th ANNIVERSARY COMMITTEE
GOMLEY CHESED CONGREGATION

Front L to R — Mrs. Walter Brandt, Mrs. Martin Amdusky, Mrs. Moe
H. Glazer, Mrs. Elias Friedman, and Mrs. Dan Inson. Second row — Rev.
Paul Grob, Rabbi A. David Arzt, President Robert Rosenfeld and Joseph
Reshefsky. Third row — Julian M. Blachman (Man of the Quarter-Century),
Arthur Bloom, Nathan Schlussel, Meyer H. Jacbson (Ceneral Chairman),
Joe Freedman and Nathan Meyer (Testimonial Banquet Chairman).

Julian Blachman has endeared
himself to everyone with whom he
has come into contact through his
many activities and interests in
both the Jewish and general com-
munities of Portsmouth, and in-
deed of the entire Seaboard Reg-
ion. A native of Portsmouth, and
a product of its schools, Julian as
a boy was a charter member of Boy
Scout Troop 204. In his early
youth, he was active in the Esther
Bible Class and the Clover Club
and Beth El Temple Club of Nor-
folk.

Since 1948, Julian has been a
board member of the Suburban
Country Club, and since 1951 has
been president of the Suburban
Club Incorporated, a stock hold-
ing corporation. He has been
Portsmouth chairman of the Jew-
ish Welfare Board since 1941, sup-
ervising the entertainment and
providing for the religious needs
of the thousands of young Jewish
men and women who have been
stationed in the Hampton Roads
area. For these efforts, he re-

ceived a citation from the Navy
Department in 1948. He has been
a member of the Board of the USO
for many years, and of the Ki
wanis Club since 1939, also serv-
ing on its Board of Directors. He
is active in the Child and Family
Service and the Travelers Aid So-
ciety, and is the treasurer of the
Portsmouth Chapter of Red Cross.

Julian has neglected no phase
of community life in his efforts to
contribute his share toward world
peace, happiness and security. His
work has been outstanding in the
Community Chest and United
Jewish Appeal. He has been the
chairman of the latter in past years,
and has served in the local Cham-
ber of Commerce as a member of
its board and chairman of its Fire
Prevention Committee. During
World War II, he was active in
Civil Defense, and was a zone com-
munications officer.

Julian's devotion to Gomley
Chesed has been constant, dating

from his early Hebrew School years
as a pupil of Rev. Harry Miller,
and following in the footsteps of
his father, the late Morris J. Blach-
man. At the age of 18, he became
the Secretary of the Congregation
and has been a member of its
Board ever since. For the past
twenty years, he has been its Treas-
urer and has been a member, at
different times, of its Pulpit, Ex-
ecutive and Finance Committees.
He was most influential in the
planning, building and financing
of Gomley Chesed's present mod-
ern synagogue building. He has,
for a number of years, served as a
member of the Chevra Kadisha,
and is active on the Cemetary
Committee.

Portsmouth was honored in 1956
when District 5, B'nai B'rith, em-
bracing the District of Columbia
and the states of Maryland, Virgin-
ia, North & South Carolina, Geor-
gia and Florida, elected Julian as
its president. He has served two
terms as president of the Virginia
State Association of B'nai B'rith,
and at present is president of the
local lodge for the third time. He
is an active member of the Ad-
visory Committee of the Anti-De-
famation League of the State Hillel
Committee. But the highlight of
his long career in B'nai B'rith,
which began in 1938 with the or-
ganization of the local Sol Fass
Lodge, came in 1959, when Jul-
ian and his wife, Ella, attended the
international Convention of B'nai
B'rith in Jerusalem.

Julian is married to the former
Ella Caplan of Clarksburg, West
Virginia. They have recently cele-
brated their twenty-fifth wedding
anniversary. The Blachmans have
a son, Morris J., who is at present
a senior at Brandeis University.

A testimonial dinner to Julian
M. Blachman was held on Sunday
evening, October 30, i960 in the
A. H. Goodman Auditorium of
Gomley Chesed Synagogue. Rela-
tives from far and near, as well as
many B'nai B'rith friends repre-
senting the entire Fifth District
joined the members of the Jewish
community of Portsmouth in hon-
oring the "Man of the Quarter-
Century". Indeed, it may well be
said of Julian Blachman:

"Happy is the man who is rich
in good deeds,
For he shall be honored in life,
And be remembered long af-
terwards For his goodness."

The Newport News, Va. Chamber Music Society committee planning
their program for the coming season. Left to right are Mrs. E. J. Binder,
chairman; Dr. Irving Berlin, coordinator; Mrs. Harold Chapman, musical
director.

Mr. Louis Rosenfeld of the
Hampton Institute is conducting
the Art Class at the Jewish Com-
munity Center this year. The class
meets every Tuesday afternoon and
anyone interested in painting is
welcome to join the group. Paint-
ings made by members of the class
have been selected and forwarded
for showing at the exhibition at
the Middle Atlantic Section- Jewish
Welfare Board Conference which
was held in Harrisburg, Pa.

The Jewish community of New-
port News was deeply shocked to
hear of the untimely passing of
Samuel D. Cershovitz, Executive
Vice-President of the National Jew-
ish Welfare Board. Mr. Gershovitz,
a frequent visitor to Newport
News, had for many years been
helpful in the development of the
local Jewish Center program. New-
port News Jewry will miss these
very happy associations.

The Grand Club of the Jewish
Community Center has on its

agenda a trip to Miami Beach, Fla..
for the latter part of November.
They will be joined by the Golden
Agers from Norfolk and they will
travel by train to Miami Beach
where they will spend 9 happy
days basking in the sunshine.

A political symposium has been
scheduled to be held at the Jewish
Community Center on Wednesday,
November 2. Mr. Bert Nachman,
a local attorney, will be the mod-
erator, and guest speakers will be
Mr. Thomas Downing, Congress-
man from the First District, and
his opponent, Richard A. May, Re-
publican candidate. The entire
community has been invited to at-
tend.

Committees have been organized
and plans are in the making for a
Children's series, Foreign Film
Series, and Yiddish Film series. All
programs are sponsored by the
Jewish Community Center. The
Boy Scouts have started their pro-

gram for the 1960-61 season under
the capable direction of Mayer
Sarfan, Scoutmaster, and asssit
ant, Raphael Saville.

Heartiest congratulations to the
following on their recent Bar Mit-
zvahs:

Richard Lee, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Martin T. Lee; Bruce Spigel,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Spigel;
George Fenigsohn, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Sol Fenigsohn; Richard Gott-
lieb, son of Mr. and Mrs. Morris

Beth Sholom Home of Virginia

Governor Almond has appointed
Leon R. Cantor, Executive Di-
rector of Beth Sholom Home of
Virginia, to serve as a member of
the delegation which will repre-
sent the Commonwealth of Vir-
ginia at the White House Confer-
ence on Aging in Washington, D.
C. from January 9th to 12th, 1961.
President Eisenhower has called
the Conference to enable the Fed-
eral government to work jointly
with the States and citizen groups
in formulating recommendations
and plans for action to meet the
needs of older people. The 50
States will be represented by 1,740
delegates selected by their Gover-
nors. In addition there will be
660 delegates from national volun-
tary organizations and representa-
tives from departments of the Fed-
eral Government. Among the spec-
ial problems of older people to be
considered are economic security,
preservation of health, adequate
housing, meaningful use of leisure
time, employment and retirement,
and family relationships.

The White House Conference
is being preceded by a series of
local and State conferences all over
the country to enable communities
and States to develop facts and
recommendations for action at the
local level and to pool their know-
ledge for mutual planning on a
national basis. In Virginia Gov-
ernor Almond designated the Com-
mission on the Aging as the agency
through which the Commonwealth
would study its own problems and
plan its participation at the White
House Conference. Several state-

wide and local meetings have al-
ready been held in Richmond, Nor-
folk and Roanoke. Cantor is serv-
ing as Chairman of the Sub-Com-
mittee on Institutional Living Ar-
rangements and as a member of the
Co-ordinating Committee of the
Commission. He also delivered a
paper on "Rehabilitation of the
Aging" at the Governor's Confer-
ence in Richmond on Dec. 15, 1959
and made one of the Keynote ad-
dresses at the Richmond Metropoli-
tan Area Conference on Oct. 3rd.

All of this interest and activity
in problems of aging is caused by
the tremendous growth in the
population of older people in the
U.S. Today there are 50,000,000
Americans who have passed their
45th birthday and 16,000,000 over
65 yrs. In Virginia there are about
300,000 people over 65 of whom
2,000 to 3,000 are Jewish. The
predictions are that the high pro-
portion of older people in the
population will continue to in-
crease at an accelerated rate. The
attendant problems have caused
serious concern everywhere, ind-
cluding Virginia. Inadequate in-
come, poor health, disrupted fam-
ilv relationships, insufficient pre-
paration for premature retirement
and many other difficulties in-
flict the aged. At the same time
planning and creation of facilities
and services to meet the needs of
older people at local, state and na-
tional levels have fallen way be-
hind what is required. It is hoped
that the White House Conference
will stimulate greater interest and
action.

Hollywood

Hollywood, Calif.— The reason
Oscar Levant resumed his tv pro-
gram in Hollywood instead of in
New York is simple. He has more
enemies in Hollywood. . . . There's
plenty of heat in Bobby Breen's
latest record, "Summer Place" . . .
Jerry Hoffman, filmland's public
relations expert, says don't miss the
Jewish Community Center in Mex-
ico City. It's a magnificent minia-
ture of the U. of Mexico's fabulous
architecture . . . Joel Grey, Mickey
Katz' son, is a listening blessing
with his Capitol album, "Songs My
Father Taught me." My Yiddisha
momma, bless her, used to cradle
me with one of these melodies.

Sidney Skolsky, after two panel
appearanes with David Susskind
on "Open End" says of D.S.:
"What a brain!" . . . Jeff Chandler
says the stewardess on Israel's El-
Al airline fed him so well he gain-
ed 10 pounds in 21 hours.

George Jessel writes like he talks
in his book "Jessel Anyone?" It's
for you to decide if that's good or
bad ... In this volume, Jack Benny
relates how Jessel made his audi-
ence cry while conducting funeral
services for James Mason's cat . . .
Despite the fact that Walter Slezak
loves to eat gefilte fish and corned
beef sandwiches in Moskowitz and
Lupowitz' restaurant in N. Y.'s
lower East Side, and despite the
secondary fact that the cafe pre-
served Walter's footprints in their
lobby in chicken fat, we regretfully
make it clear for the records— he
isn't Jewish.

Ricky Layne, who keeps Velvel
stocked with an accent, used to be
a Florida bellboy, so try to remem-

That picture made by Noonan and
Marshall, "The Shnook," was ori-

ginally slated for Dean Martin and
Jerry Lewis.

Did you ever hear Eddie Fisher
sing "The Star Spangled Banner?"
A singer of popular songs, Fisher
is. A singer of our National An-
them, he isn't . . . Lenny Maxwell,
N. Y. born comedian, told me at
the Cocoanut Grove, his full name
is Lenny Maxwell Gordon ... I
say that Lenny will be the next
Jack Benny . . . Jack Benny says:
"Will you cut that out" . . . Law-
ence Welk's singer-violinist, Alad-
din, is Italian but as a kid in New
York he had his heart set on being
a chazzen. Stemmed from his ad-
miration for Cantor Rosenblatt.

Arlene Martei, real name Neu-
bauer, was a Lawrence Welk one-
night champagne lady. She's from
Indianapolis; ditto Ralph Port-
nor, Welk's publicist and radio an-
nouncer . . . Goodbye, Frank Sil-
ver, 58, who wrote "Yet, We Have
No Bananas' 'and thank you for
the many laughs you gave us while
we sang your rib-tickling tune.

Next time you see Dane Clark
ask him: "Mr. Simon, what's with
you and Barney Glazer?" He'll tell
you how he starred in a live tv
show and portrayed a boxer. "I
fought the entire 10 rounds and
thought I would drop from a
heart attack," Dane will continue.
"Then I searched the newspapers
the next day and all the critics
said: 'Eh!' Finally, one critic nam-
ed Barney Glazer said it was the
greatest live tv performance of all
times." Which is why Dane and
Barney are as CLOSEASTHIS.

BETH EL CHILDREN IN SUCCAH

Children of the Beth El Hebrew School Durham, are shown as they ob-
served the Succoth rituals with the traditional palm branch, myrtle twigs and
willow. Lett to right: Howard Lipton, Rabbi Herbert M. Berger, Johnathan
Pine, Susan Dworsky, Ann Lapkin and Mrs. Samson Gross, Superintendent.

Some folks do their work in
such a quiet, efficient manner that
one can scarcely tell that there is
any effort involved. It was in such
a manner that the new superin-
tendent of the religious and Sun-
day Schools, Mrs. Samson Gross—
"Hoodie" to all— worked with the
education committee all summer
with the dependability of a well-re-
gulated clock and produced a cur-
riculum over which the entire com-
munity is elated. The Education
Committee is composed of Mrs.
Gross, Rabbi Berger, Dr. Mel
Shim, Dr. Larry Slifkin, Mrs. }.
Hockfield, Mrs. R. Lipton.

Mrs. Samson Gross, whose hus-
band is connected with Duke Uni-
versity, is a native New Yorker. She
received the A.B. Degree from
Brooklyn College, M. A. Degree
from Columbia University, teach-
er's certificate from Beth Jacob's
Teacher's Seminary and has taught
Hebrew in all clay Hebrew schools.
She was also head counseller at the
Massad Hebrew Speaking Camp.

The Beth El Sunday school now
numbers 130 children— ten grades,
from nursery to confirmation, are
conducted every Sunday morning.
On the staff are twelve qualified
teachers: Carol Kaplan; Mrs. H.
Somberg; Eileen Rancer; Mrs. L.
Dworsky; Mrs. A. Greenberg; Mrs.
H. Campbell; Mrs. H. Gitelson;
Mrs. M. Weinstein; Dr. L. Slifkin;

Leon Dworsky; Dr. Mel Shimm
and Rabbi M. Hebert Berger. We
are indeed fortunate to have the
benefit of professionals from Duke
University and the University of
North Carolina teach our youth!

Since it is in the primary grades
that a child receives a foundation
of Jewish experienies upon which
learning in later years can be built,
it is the aim of the teachers to in-
still a love for things Jewish and
to stimulate the child's natural
curiosty as to who and what he is.

In the upper grades, emphasis
will be given to historical develop-
ments providing the background
lor understanding the present
status of the Jewish people, parti-
cularly in America and Israel.

Although classes have just start-
ed last month, already the sixth
grade is working on an original
script for a puppet show which will
be presented Chanukah for the
Sunday School and Sisterhood
Bazaar. Mrs. Morton Bogdonoff,
a professional puppeteer, is assist-
ing the children with the puppets.

Rabbi Berger and Mrs. Gross,
who will assist him, in the religious
school, will stress Hebrew as a
vital, living language, not just as a
tool to read and comprehend pray-
ers. Basic Hebrew words, in con-
junction with the holidays, will be
taught and used as often as pos-
sible during the Hebrew classes
and Sunday School.

We congratulate the Beth El
congregation and Sisterhood for
helping to provide the necessary
facilities for our Sunday School
and Religious School.

A 'Welcome Newcomers Sab-
bath" was observed Sept. 16th at
the Beth El Synagogue, during the
Friday evening services. Rabbi
Berger welcomed the following:
Mr. and Mrs. H. Blumenthal; Mr.
and Mrs. Wm. Caffin; Dr. and
Mrs. H. Campbell: Dr. and Mrs.
Rashi Fein; Dr. and Mrs. S. Gross;
Dr. and Mrs. S. Levine; Dr. and
Mrs. N. Schupper; Dr. and Mrs. L.
Hart; Mr. and Mrs. E. Smueli and
Mr. and Airs. S. Somberg. Jacob
Zuckerman chanted the service and
Norman Lieberman sang the Kid-
dush. Dr. Sidney Markman, Mem-
bership Chairman, opened the
Ark. The Congregation was host
for the Oneg Shabat.

The High Holy Day Services,
conducted by Rabbi Berger and
Cantor Theodore Birnbaum of
Brooklyn, N. Y., who was the guest
of the congregation for the Holi-
days, were very inspiring. May this
New Year be one of good health
and happiness for all.

Immediately after the close of
the Yom Kippur Services, the Beth
El Sisterhood was host to a Break-
the-Fast-Repast.

Children of the Hebrew School,
Sunday School and parents attend-
ed the Succoth party, sponsored by
the Education Committee of the
Synagogue. The party was held im-
mediately after the Succoth Ser-
vices, which were conducted by
Rabbi Berger and Jacob Zucker-
man.

Jacksonville has had very poor
coverage in this magazine lately
and all due entirely to its reporter
and certainly not to lack of events
or news. My New Year resolution,
one of the many I have in mind,
will be to strive for better report-
ing.

We wish to welcome the new
Chaplain Martin Siegel of Camp
Lejeune. We hope The Marine
Corps won't mind if we share their
Chaplain for he has certainly co-
operated and helped a great deal
already with organizing the Sun-
day School for the coming year.
We also wish to welcome Mr. and
Mrs. Ralph C. Bigio and their two
children into our community.

November, 1960

In true Sisterhood spirit, the
members of the Beth El Sisterhood
turned out "en masse" to welcome
the new members at the October
meeting. The President, Mrs. Mur-
ray Brandt, thanked the members
for the unusual large attendance,
particularly in view of the fact that
there was a downpour of rain out-
side—but that did not dampen
the spirits of the members!

In the festive mood of Succoth,
Mrs. R. Bernson, Membership
Chairman, welcomed the following
fourteen new members: Mesdames,
N. Baumna, H. Blumenfeld, A.
Bromberg. Wm. Caffin, H. Camp-
bell, D. Danneman, S. Danovitsh,
R- Fein, S. Gross, L. Hart, S. Le-
vine, M. Liebling, N. Schupper
and S. Somberg.

Mrs. D. Weinstein presented a
short resume' of the Succoth Holi-
day, which was followed by a musi-
cal skit, "The Sisterhood Story."
Participants in the skit were: Mrs.
H. Lefkoff, Mrs. J. Zuckerman,
Mrs. D. Danneman, Mrs. J. Rose
and Mrs. J. Plasse. Mrs. L. Dworksy
was the piano accompanist.

Hostesses for the evening were
the membership committee: Mrs.
R. Bernson, Mrs. A. Finn, Mrs. E.
Wishnov and Mrs. D. Weinstein.

Whoever it was, who stated that
women should stay out of politics,
would have changed his mind if
he had attended Hasassah's panel
discussion on major issues facing
the United States. The panel was
composed of Representatives Hor-
ace Kornegay of Greensboro and

and Happiness to our entire con-
gregation, and to all Jewish Peo-
ple everywhere.

Hadassah launched its membership
campaign with a membership tea,
Tuesday, September 27 at 2 P.M.
at the home of Mrs. A. W. Gran-
dis; 301 Roslyn Road.

In addition to the invitations ex-
tended to prospective members,
each Hadassah member who en-
rolled a new member was elegible

key numbers drawn from a "Sur-

MRS. EDDIE CANTOR, Correspondent

The members oi Beth El Con-
gregation were very inspired dur-
ing the high holy days by our Rab-
bi Milgrom's correlated sermons.
Jn addition, after the Sukkah ser-
vices a party was held in our
beautiful Sukkah which was deco-
rated by the members of our Sister-
hood. The Men's Club and the
Sisterhood again sponsored their
annual Sukkah and Simchas Torah
Flag Contests. The sukkah contest
was judged by members of the
Men's Club, and prizes were
awarded the most original and most
creative Sukkahs. The Sisterhood
committee judged the flags for
originality.

The ladies of our Sisterhood at-
tended two Sabbath institutes.
Under the chairmanship of Mrs.
Jack Paul Fine, the committee
demonstrated the various rituals,
recipes, decorations, and songs of
the Sabbath. A museum at the in-
stitute displayed many of the mem-
bers prized Sabbas articles.

Dedication was held for the new
Sefer Torah which was purchased
by the friends and the family of
Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Goldman in
honor of their fortieth anniversary.
A special observance of completing
the torah scroll preceded the dedi-
cation ceremonies. Beth-Elites were
called up to the open Torah Scroll
to fill in the outline of the last
letters of the Torah.

The members of our Sisterhood
were entertained at their Donor
Luncheon by Rabbi Shlomo Carle-
bach, a singing rabbi, who ac-
companied himself on a guitar. He
crooned his songs of the Bible in a
soft, husky voice. This was a mem-
orable experience which thrilled
all of us. To Mrs. Norman Sisisky,
and Mrs. Stanley Linas, and their
committee we give our thanks.

Mazel-tov also goes to our Mrs.
Herman Rothenberg on her ap-
pointment as Assistant Professor

PARABLES OF A

ORIGINAL CREATIONS BY RABBI SOLOMON JACOBSON
TEMPLE BRITH ACHIM, PETERSBURG, VA

The Best Of All Orbits

Once upon a time there was a
ing who had vanquished the en-
ire world. All nations were under
lis dominion and he sought new
worlds to conquer. He was in-
pired by the majestic concept of
nding his people out into space
eyond the confines of the earth,
nd thus he would bring the cos-
rios under his rule, too. He put
is scientists to work on the pro-
ct and it was not long before
hey had devised methods of circl-
ng the earth. It was called: put-
ing man in orbit.

This undertaking proved most
uccessful and many were the king's
ubjects who went into orbit a-
ound the earth. The excitement
nd exhilaration were tremendous.
Tired of the ordinary orbits, the
eople demanded bigger and deep-
r circuits that would enable them
o encompass larger and wider por-
ions of the universe. There was
10 end to the prospect. The king
ncouraged his scientists to follow
le matter to its utmost potential
3 that, in due course, orbits could
e established around the planets
nd the stars. "Let the road lead
^here it may," ordered the king,
but I want the most magnifi-
ent and extensive orbit imagin-
ie."

This is how it happened that a
ertain prophet came to the king,
lying, "The orbits which are now
operation or in preparation are

Goes Home"

NEW BERN, N. C.

very insignificant, petty, diminu-
tive and minuscule. I can suggest
an orbit which will outshadow and
outdistance any orbit on the plan-
ning boards, yet it is a very simple
and inexpensive one."

The king was enthralled by the
prophet's statement and he pressed
for a diagram of this last-word or-
bital system.

Said the prophet, "If you can
prevail upon the people in the
kingdom to make an orbit around
themselves and each one to get the
most out of the wonderful world
that lies within him, you will
have the best orbit that ever was
or ever will be."

Moral: An orbit which encircles
planet or star cannot equal the
orbit we ourselves are.

tion — our philanthropic organizations find the going rougher
when there is no critical condition facing us — it might be off-
set by the thought that additional man-power is available in
non-crisis times, to work on organization.

Surely, it is apparent that there is an urgent need for an
answer to the question, both internationally and locally, as to
who has the right to speak for whom. The sooner that such a
question can be answered, the better it will be for Jews the
world over.

Raleigh Temple Beth Or

MRS. HARRY CAPLAN, Correspondent

The new Torah donated by Mrs.
Sidney Oberdorfer of Richmond,
Va., and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Nei-
man was dedicated Friday, Oct. 14.
The beautiful new scroll and the
resplendent Torah Mantles adorn-
ing our Torahs contributed greatly
to the impressiveness of our ser-
vices during the recent High Holy
Days and evoked the unstinted
praise of everyone present. We are
profoundly grateFul to the above
mentioned individuals for their ex-
tremely appropriate and most gen-
erous gift.

The Holy Days are now a pleas-
ant memory, but we wish to take
this opportunity to thank the mem-
bers of our congregation for their
many expressions of appreciation
that they were kind enough to
convey to us. We would be remiss
were we not, in turn, to express
our special gratitude to all those
individuals and groups who con-
tributed so much to the splendid
spirit of devotion and prayerful-
ness that prevailed at our services.

Our thanks to Mrs. B. S. Aron-
son and her committee for provid-
ing the splendid reception follow-
ing the Rosh Hashonah Eve Ser-
vices, giving an opportunity to all
our members and their guests to
mingle and exchange New Year
good wishes; our thanks to the
Holiday choir under the direction
of Dr. Nell Hirschberg for present-
ing to us the musical portions of
our services in an inspiring man-
ner; to the ushers under the gui-

dance of Mr. Isaac Schwartz, who
as always performed their job in a
most efficient manner; and to
Jerry Sauber lor making the Sho-
far service so very meaningful by
blowing the Shofar so well. The
artistically arranged flowers also
added very greatly to the impres-
siveness of the services. Our ap-
preciation is extended to all who
participated in the services.

A memorial name plate in mem-
ory of the late Mrs. Milton Thorn
was dedicated Friday, Oct. 7th.

We were proud to have one of
our own girls, Sarah Levine, as one
of the debutantes of the season. It
couldn't have happened to a love-
lier young lady.

Rabbi Caplan has resumed
teaching two classes at Shaw Uni-
versity, one in Isaiah, the other in
Great Personalities of the Old
Testament.

Glad to inform everyone that
Mr. Ben Ginsberg. Mr. Harold
Mark, Mr. Irving Kaye, Mrs. Eva
Glass Fowler, Mrs. Max Rosengar-
ten and Mr. Ike Reinheimer are
fully recovered or are well on the
road to recovery from their recent
illnesses. Happy to report that
Mrs. Oscar Goodman and Mrs.
Paul Seligson are doing nicely after
their recent surgery.

Temple Beth Or suffered an ir-
reparable loss in the recent passing
of Miss Eva Harris. It can truly
be said that nothing Jewish was
alien to her. She brought glory and
honor upon the fewish people.
