Bicj Three To Censure State of Israel United Nations, N. Y.

The draft expressed "the strongest censure of that action which can only prejudice the chance;: of u peaceful settlement which both parties in accordance with the Charter arc bound to seek."

He called upon Israel "to take effective measures to prevent all such actions in the future."

The • proposed resolution also note that "there is substantial evidence of crossing of the demarcation line by unauthorized persons often resulting, in acts of violence, and requests the Government of Jordan to continue and strengthen the measures which they are already taking to prevent such crossing."

It also reminded both Israel and Jordan of their obligations to prevent all acts of violence on either side of the demarcation line and called on both governments "to ensure the effective cooperation of local security forces." ••.

Tho resolution called on both parties to "abide by their obligations under the general armistice agreement and the resolutions of the Security Council" and pointed out that this is essential " in order* to nchievc progress by peaceful means towards a lasting settlement of the issues outstanding between them," It told both to co-r operate fully wKh'thc UN truce supervisor and requested him to report back to the Council within three months- "with such recommendations as ho may consider appropriate on compliance with and enforcement of the general arml:;tfco agreement*, with particular reference to the provisions of this resolution."

Revision of Resolution Cleveland (JTA)—Speaking for BOO Jewish communities in the United States, the General Assembly of the Council of Jewish Federations arid Welfare Funds, at its session here, adopted a resolution expressing "grave concern" over the joint resolution presented by the U.S., Britain and France to the U.N. Security Council censuring Israel for the Kibya incident.

"We urge our government to use its influence and prestige through the United Nations and through diplomatic channels to endeavor to bring about such a revision of tho resolution in question, and to call upon the governments directly concerned to negotiate a settlement of their differences and a permanent peace," the CJFWF General Asembly requested.

Tho CJFWF pointed out that the proposed three-power resolution rcgretably falls to recognize that the fundamental cause of these Unfortunate developments; which have taken innocent lives on both tides of the frontier,: lies in', the' failure of the free world to restore'peace to the area, That restoration it crucial to the maintenance of peace in the entire world.

•'• "In keeping with the objectives of the existing armistice agreements • Israel has continuously proposed direct negotiations with the other' signatories as the be it means to achieve peace. These overtures have been persistently rebuffed. We believe tho goal of peace would be best served by revising the resolution pending in the Security Council, both to recognize impartially the broad background of the present tension, and to call upon the parties most concerned to end thai tension by constructive action to transform th-2 armistice agreements Into Just arid honorable peaco treaties," the CJFWF resolution stated.

Israel Stone United Nations, N. Y. (JTA)—A total of BOO slabs of stone cut from the hills around Jerusalem are being used to face a seven-foot high foundation for a Japanese peace bell to stand in the conference building of tho United Nations here. The stone it a gift of the Israel Government to the UN.

s Long Range Needs Are Presented New York (JTA)—Israel is looking to American Jews to provide a minimum of $125,000,000 annually for the next sevea years through Israel Bonds and the United Jewish Appeal, Julian B. Venezky, chairman ol the executive committee of the State of Israel Bond Organization, reported at a meeting of the

Austria Rejects Settlement Offer Vienna (JTA)—The Austrian Government has definitely rejected the demands of world Jewish organizations for a lump sum settlement of heirless property claims of Jewish victims of the Nazis, after having negotiated with the Jewish groups for six months over the amount of such J settlement. It was: learned here this weekend from authoritative sources. The Austrian Government has also turned down all proposal* for advance payment of any of the heirless restitution .claims.

•,;'... V ? 1 ! ' - . . - . - ' .-'.• • ••• ••-.••.•'.

A case-by-Case investigation of the claims is only possible in months after the ratification of an Austrian state treat/with the Allied powers, the government claimed. This argument: was ad' vanced by the government on the basis of a number of .Austrian laws which provide for the submission of claims for return of heirless property until six months after the treaty ratification. In informing the Jewish groups of its decision, the government aso argued that If it were to settle the claims with the Jewish groups, claimants could, until six months after treaty ratification, demand property which had been included in the lump sum settlement.

The Austrian Government also told the Jewish groups that they had started off on the wrong basis, since the granting of restitution to racial pcrsecutecs would mean "discrimination" in favor of one group. Special regulations favoring Individual cases pr groups was contrary to Austrian Government policy, it declared.

Nevertheless, it was reported, the government told the Jewish organizations that it was "willing to continue the negotiations," and asked for new Jewish offers for a settlement of the problem of heirless property.

Eric Jphnsbri Gives Report To lice on Middle East Mission Washington (JTA)—Eric Johnston, president Eisenhower's special envoy to the Arab-Israel area, reported to the President that the governments of the countries he recently visited "are studying with an open mind the far-reaching proposals outlined in the recent U.N. report on unified development of the water resources of the Jordan River Valley."

Mr. Johnston who disclosed that he would return to the Middle East, robably in February, was accompanied on his meeting with tho President by Secretary of Slate John Foster Dulles. Mr. Dulles later "*1old his press conference at the State Department that he was gratified by Mr. Johnston's report. The current political :;ltuatlon, he said, might well have resulted in rejection of the plan, but as a rej'ilt of Mr. Johnston's visit, the plai wa3 still very much alive.

(In Jerusalem a spokesman said the Israel Government is studying the project and will present its reply to Mr. Johnston early next year when he revisits Israel.)

A White House statement emphasized that on his recent vtoit to the Middle East, Mr. Johnston did not "expect nr ask for decision at this lime." It added that he rc|>orted "that th.e attitude he encountered gave him reason to believe that, after serious scrut-

organization's Board of Governors held at the Hotel Astor here.

Mr. Venezky, who r e t u r n e d from Israel where he attended the economic conference of American and other Jewish leaders held in Jerusalem last month, said that (he conference demonstrated that the relationship of American Jews to Israel cannot be considered on a "short range basis." He pointed out that Israel will need for investment during the next seven years a total of $705,000,000 and 1,092,000,000 Israel pounds. In all, Israel will require a total of $1,710,000,000, i n c l u d i n g an amount for the payment of debts, in the next seven years, he reported.

During the same seven-year period, he added, Israel expects to receive $420,000,000 i n German reparation payments; $230,000,000 through private investments and an e s t i m a t e d $185,000,000 in grants-ln-aid. T h e balance of $875,000,000, or $125,000,000 B year, will have to come from Jewish Bources, principally in the United States. This figure, Mr. Venezky explained, would represent an increase of some $35,000,000 a year over the total amount made available, chiefly through Israel Bonds and the United Jewish Appeal, during the past year.

Mr. Venezky said that ho was "deeply saddened by the action of tho United States representatives in the Security Council of the United Nations against Israel." He deplored the fact that our State Department "has associated itself in a step which will encourage Arab hostility and seroiusly Jeopardize any opportunity for the establishment of peace based on justice for all concerned." -

Omission The name of Max Frornkin was inadvertently omitted from last week's article in the Proas on the story of the. Beth Israel Sisterhood's testimonial dinner' given for Mrs. Lewis Neveleff.

Unilc-il aNtions (JTA)—-Judging from thu increased financial aid it ha:; had to provide Jordan this year, the United Kingdom is finding it mon.1 iitid more expensive to n.-lain any klrul of a hold on the II as he-mite Kingdom. B e side.-, the usual annual subsidy of $2,000,000 for the Arab Legion, the lirilish Government is providing an Intcrc :;t free loan of $1,500,000 to be spent during the fiscal year bcinnin/j Apiil 1 on what arc described as "certain spt-cified proji-cts under Jordan's five-year plan on economic development." Furthermore, the Foreign Office is apparently ready and willing to shell out even more money if it can cot parliamentary sanction to do so.

The Chanukah Spirit Each year as the Festival of Chamjkab comes around we are reminded of the ancient Maccabees, of the spirit of Jewish valor which against heavy odds fonght a pagan empire and won out The contemporary story of Jewish heroism, aa .exempli fied in the successful fight for an independent Jewish state, has added a new Maecabean chapter of bratexy to the annals of Jewish history, so that we who are living ih this era are prond to he thei contemporaries; of those Jewish fighters in Palestine whose courage gave birth to the Republic of Israel. :.-i The ancient Maecabean struggle agkinst Greek paganism •was not only a political strugglefor Jewish independence but , also, and even more so, a *war for the independence of the Jewish spirit, as represented by the Jewish religion which tbe army of Antiochns wished to corrupt taa render ineffective in the life of Palestine Jewry of that day. Nevertheless, it did employ the; sword as a: means to attain its end. :And that is why a recent article in the oLndon Jewish (Jhronicle saysi "The Maecabean chapter has its acknowledged place in Jewish Ms? tory, and we are proud of i t But it is the history of an emergency. - T h e . exception is ho-example for the rule, and the Maecabean hero not an example for the ordinary way of life to which the Jew aspires- For the ordinary way of Jewish life the example is net by Abraham, who went out into the world to boild house and altar, and came without the sword, without resorting to-pbwer.

T h e article ends with a prayer which will, we believe, be shared by Jews everywhere at this Chanukah time. "May lasting peace soon be made between Israelis and Arabs," it says, "and may our brethren in Israel acknowledge that our life in the Diaspora, that non-political life everywhere, both in Israel and the Diaspora, has the chance of being holy Jewish life, because the way of Abraham, the priestly way, leads to holiness."

Between You and Me %

By Boris SrooUr (Copyright, 1953, JTA.) CHANUKAn SUGGESTIONS: The American Government is planning to distribute Christmas gift food packages in West Germany to needy Germans . . . But what about Chanukah fiift packages to refugees and unemployed in Israel? . . . In fact, n Social Democratic member of the West German Parliament, Helmut Kaibitzcr, is now urging the German Government to transfer to Israel "and other nations economically much worse off than West Germany", the Yule food which the U.'S. Government has donated to the Germans ..*. These food packages ocme from American government-held food stocks and from purchases under American agricultural price-support policies . .

A total of 12,700,000 pounds of fat, rice, sugar, condensed milk, beans, peas, prunes, ralsbu and canned beef is being shipped to the German Government as on outright holiday-season gift".*-. . And the United States is even absorbing -the freight charges . . . On the basis of the ratio of parccls-toncedy-population used with regard to Germany, Israel would be justified in getting at least 40.000 such 16-pound parcels . . . And the Department of Agriculture, which is looking for an opportunity to get rid of its surpluses, would perhaps act very favorably if Jewish organizations were to raise the question with the proper Washington officials . . . Last year, the Hadassah received from the U. S. Government $23,000,000 worth of surplus commodities for I s r a e l . . • What about holiday gifts for Israel now? . . . There arcplenty of needy in Israel, and the gift-parcels could be distribute! by the 11 n d a B s a h or through Israel's welfare agencies . . .

AMERICAN CONTIlinUTIONS: As the three-year plan to help Israel, upon which American Jewry embarked late In 1950, draws to a close, Jewish community leaders ore attempting to evaluate the results . . . America's share was one billion dollars . . . Was this sum raised? . . . Well, here is the account . . . The UJA, through the Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds, has received about 220 million dollars during the three years . . . Other philanthropic agencies have received an additional 45 million dollars . . . Israel Bond subscriptions totalled 100 million dollars, of which over 130 million dollars have been received in cash

. . . United States grant-ih-ald commitments total about 195 million dollars, of. which some 160 million dollars will have been received by the end of this year . . .

During the Ihreeryear period there were also United States Government surplus commodity grants of 23 million dollars as well as nn additional Export-1 m p o r t Hank loan of 35 million dollars . . . Also \J. S. technical • aid representing small dollar cost but tremendously helpful to Israel in stretching the balue of its income and resources , . . There were, of course, also private investments . . . The projected goal of a billion dollars was thus not reached but a substantial part of it was realized . . .

Leaden of the Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds emphasize that this achievement would have been impossible without their centralized action . . . And they suggest the bringing home to Israel of greater understanding of American fund-raising methods, BO that Israel can more cfefctlvcly cooperate . . . They also claim that between the Israel Bonds as ina clearer distinction is still needed vestments and the UJA as philanthropy . . . They fear a changed situation in 1054 as Israel Bonds become marketable and they caution against the use of bonds an payments of Welfare Fund pledges, since this would odd no actual income and no foreign exchange to Israel . . . All these views found expression at the General Assembly of the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds which war, held in Cleveland last weekend.

Historiette:

Ancient Cemetery Found in Haifa (An American Jewish Press Syndicate Feature) An ancient burial ground with three skeletons, believed to be about 3300 years old has been discovered in the Kishon area, it was announced recently by Abba Khoushy, Mayor of Haifa, and Mr. A. Rosh, curator of the Haifa museum. In one grave, o number of large pottery jars were found.

Some of the jars had covers, and, it 13 suggested, may have originally contained food for the dead.

The graveyard, of the Late Bronze Age, stretches over scv-

of accusation* and prejudice of all sorts against Jewish aspirations in Palestine.

• . ..- . . .

This month Mr. Truman found himself subjected to grave charges.

He looked about. In the most tryIng moment of his life, to see who was at his side. He found people who may not have shared his political affiliation* or agreed with all the decisions he made as President But they believed in him as an outstanding human being, a devoted friend of minority groups, and above all as a loyal American.

Confronted Early this month Mr. Truman sat in bis New York hotel room confronted by microphones and newsreel cameras. He read aloud a letter to chairman Harold H. Velde of the House Committee on Un-American Activities in which he rejected, on Constitutional grounds, a subpoena to testify.

Nearby were Mrs. Truman and Miss Margaret Truman. Also in the room, standing by the former President, were Sen. Herbert II. Lehman, New York Democrat; Samuel I. Rosenman, a closer adviser to tlie late President Roosevelt; Edward Jacobson, Mr. Truman's old haberdashery partner, and Morris L. Ernst, a leading exponent of civil liberties.

That night at a dinner in the same hotel, Mr. Truman was presented the Solomon Dublick Award of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He heard Dr. George S. Wise, president of the American Friends of the Hebrew University, say that his "unwavering stand in protecting the principles of our Constitution and of individual freedom" had mado him "the symbol and the very personification of the fight for the rights of the individual, for decency and for democracy." Dr. Wise caid that no person now living had done more than Mr. Truman to meet the post-war problems 6f defense a g a i n s t Communist aggression, economic rehabilitation of underdeveloped countries and the democratic self-determination of the peoples of the world.

Defense Against Communism As examples of how the former President met these problems, Dr. Wise cited the resistance nfiainst ;ral dunams. Two graves were found one and three quarter kilometers opart, which suggests that settlement of the orert was e x tensive. The skeletons arc in reasonably Rood condition. A large bronze needle for netmaking, of n design used today, was also found on the site. It is believed that the ancient Inhabitants of the area were fishermen.

The tile, known n3 Tel Abu Hawnn, had been previously in 1922 excavated by H. W. Hamilton, director of the Department of Antiquities durirng the Mandatory regime. It was then found that tbe upper stratum dates back to the Hellenistic Period of the third to second centuries B.C-E-, and that the' area was not inhabited after that period.

aggression in Korea, the Point Four program, recognition of Israel in 1948 and subsequent demonstrations of friendship. At the same dinner Dr. Buell G.. Gallagher, president of City College, said Communism's threat to freedom in the United States was "much less real" than the threat from those whose ["accusations of treason, hereiay and subversion cover the political, religious and education areas." Dr. Gallagher charged that those who "cultivate tho attitudes of fear, suspicion, hatred" were the "genuinely subversive," and laid It made no difference whether they were avowed Communists or avowed antl-Communisls. . * . . • - .

Earlier that week Mr. Truman received the Stephen Wise Award from the American Jewish Congress for "hit consistent and courageous leadership in the cause of civil rights during his terms as president of the United Stales."

Speaking at the dinner at which the award was made, Mr. Truman :;aid the nation wa3 " l o s i n g ground" in the "matter of freedom of thought and freedom of speech." The attacks on these freedoms were all the more scriuus, he :;aid, because they "are Indirect and insidious."

Fear Manipulated 'Fear of Communism is being manipulated by a few so as to cause o wave of hysteria in this country," he said. "Fear Is a great silencer and people are being kept quiet for fenr of being accused of sympathy with Communism. When people become afraid to speak their beliefs or to defend the innocent, then freedom is really in danger."

Mr. Truman hailed the late Rabbi Stephen S. Wise as n devoted ilefender of civil liberties and denounced "recent efforts to blacken his name." (The House Committee on Un-American Activities recently published material containing alienations which r.ought to link Rabbi Wise with Communism.)

Appeal Tho former President wan informed that the American Jewish Congress urged religious and secular groups that have agreed to aid the House Committee on unAmerican Activities in an investigation of clergymen to reconsider the decision and withdraw i t This appeal was made in a resolution which denounced the committee for "un-Amcrlcan methods, its use of discredited witnesses and the irresponsible release of uncorroborated nccusations."

While in New York, Mr. Truman took time to accept an invitation from the Hebrew Theological Seminary. There he talked with students and was shown sacred scrolls on which nncient history of the Jewish people is recorded. The students found It not at all inconceivable that Jewish theologlsta in come future age will examine honored scrolls of Jewish history and find tho story of an American President who believed in the Zionist cause and in loyalty to the concept of human freedom e n visioned by the Prophets of the Old Testament

Such extravagant generosity at a time when the British want to haul their troops out of the Trieste Territory because of the cost of keeping them there is the subject of comment here at the United Nations. It may be due to blackmail; the British arc known to have been considerably alarmed by the demonstrations and riots directed against them In Amman following the Kibya incident.

Military Ally As the military ally and paymaster of Jordan, the United Kingdom must assume some of the responsibility at least for the actions of the Hashemite Kingdom in Palestine. Yet, the question that is being asked In tbe corridors here ia how much control do the British exert in Jordan now, and whether or not they have a Eyngman Rhec by the tail in the rabid anti-Jewish Palestine Arabs who run the state.

Certainly, General Glubb, the British commander of the Arab Legion, has no authority to guard the borders of Jordan and prevent marauders from crossing them. As the head' of the state's army, he should have such authority, but, it would seem that he is the sorry example of a British pro-consul taken over by the natives and forced to do their will. For the sake of appearance and his own ego, General Glubb h«s resorted to the most extraordinary philosophising, whereby he a'scrts that the Jews benefit from trouble on the borders of Jordan both psychologically and in hard cash.

Ambassador Abba Eban, in a speech before the Security Council recently, quoted General Glubb as saying that the Jewish people need "the psychological release of tho urge to bully others after having suffered the same thing for centuries." The Israeli representative also referred to the British general's opinion that the Jews bencfittcd from incursions across tho Jordan border and the havoc and murder that resulted from them because they stimulated financial support for Israel in the United Slates.

Questionable Control The reason why diplomats hero question the control that tho United Kingdom has In Jordan is that there have been two distinct phases in the Arab Slate's relations with Israel. They were: the fairly friendly phase while King Abdullah was alive and the border was tho most quiet and peaceful of any; and the present hostile phase with the border In upheaval, a phase which began with the assassination of King Abdullah by Palestine Arab extremists and their effective capture of tbe state.

Which of these phases represents: British policy toward Israel?

During both of them, the United Kingdom was the paymaster and ally of Jordan. Mr. Eban says that tho Icraclla arc sincerely puzzled and would like to know the nnBwer.

Perhaps, the answer lies in tho fact that the British no longer have much control In Jordan, that they are paying through the noso for the right to stay in the Hashemite Kingdom and appear to havo some influence In the Middle East, This sort of thing can happen when an Empire Is declining and trying to hang on to the threads of its power ond prestige. Still, the question remains: what ia the present British policy in Palestine?

Not by might nor by power, but by my spirit, caith the Lord of host!. Who are thou, O great mountain? . . . Thou shult become a plain.—(Zcch. 4:6, 7.)

It is unusual for accompanist of a soloist to write an official criticism. However, beinfi the music reviewer for the "Jewish Press," I would not like to mis3 the oppoortunity of reporting one of tin.' greatest successes at the Jewish Community Center during the par.t years.

Here is my report. It is the review of the accompanist of the soprano Martha Schlamme in her

A Chanukah Lady

By Bess Lcvl Emma Lazarus was a fine Jewess and a fine American, and no one is more entitled to be called the Chanukah Lady than she, for in the story of the Maccabcan struggle and victory this young American girl saw the vision of what has taken place in our own day, the miracle of Israel's restoration.

• , A Prophet It was natural to expect that a great liberating prophet might arise in Russia where Jews were Oppressed, and where Jewish culture thrived. Legend, perhaps is truer when it pictures the prophet emerging from the desert solitude.

Such at least was the case of Emma Lazarus. The Jewish population of the United States at'the time of her birth was hardly more than 60,000. In the eighties, when her voice began to ring out, it had grown and numbered a quarter of a million. Altogether the American Jewry of that time was a contented lot. The facilities for drinking deep of the Jewish spirit were meagre to the point Of niggardliness. Yet this ypung women was a true forerunner Of Theodore Herzl. She saw the whole of his vision and her words had the stridency of the voice calling from the deep.

Her associates as a young woman were almost altogether nonJews. Ralph Waldo Emerson corresponded with her. Once, at his invitation, she visited him and she has left us a description of how the sage of Concord came down with his horse and buggy to take her from the station. Richard Henry Stoddard, a n o t h e r American poet, was a good friend of hers and urged her to write on Jewish themes. At tho time however, Emma Lazarus had not felt the Jewish call.

Fired By Pogroms What brought out the fire in her were the Russian Pogroms of the eighties. The overt incident which crystallized it was the appearance in the Century Magazine of an article by a certain Madame Alexlevcna Ragozin Justifying tho pogroms. In this article, tho writer went on to charge that Jews were interested only in money making and that the Talmud even urged Jews to cheat non-Jews whenever possible, and so on.

Emma Lazarus was burned up when she read the article. Grabbing her cloak—it was fairly late in the evening—she'rushed to tho home of Richard Glider, the editor, on Eighth Street, whom she personally knew. ..•'.•: • A daughter of Nathaniel Hawthorne the novelist was at the editor's home at the time. Seeing Miss Lazarus, she said, "Oh Emma, you look to- pale.

Emma had no time for such considerations. She turned to her friend, the editor. "Richard," she said, "who Is going to answer that article?" "Why, you, of course," responded Gilder.

Emma Lazarus did write the article and successfully "demolished" Mmc. Ragozin in tho following issue of tho Century Magazine.

Two-Anrled Philosophy Emma Lazarus began writing for the American Hebrew, then edited by Philip Cowcn, who incidentally was a cousin of tho famous American writer, Bret Hartc. Her philosophy for the uolutlon of the Jewish question was a two-oncled one. She wanted the younger generation of immigrant Jews taught more of the manual craft1!. She wanted them to cease to be luft menschen, as circumstances In Europe had forced them to become.

Secondly, she bespoke the establishment of a Jewish state.

When Bhe was told that this was an impossible dream, she replied that "the impossible always happens," In her Epistles to the Hebrews, which first appeared in the American Hebrew, she did exactly what Theodore Herzl was to do

A Touching Experience If we would say that Martha Schlamme ha:; a small, sweet and cultivated voice, it would already mean something, but we have to bay much more.

Martha Schlamme u s e s h e r voice to lift up the folksong into t h e artistic sphere. For off from the common way of interpreting folks songs, she fiives to every piece the particular glamour of her muslcality.

Yiddish melodies like the ancient "Die Alte Kasche," "Yoshke," the "Lullaby" of the m o t h e r , or "Johnny I Hardly Knew You" and songs in other languages became touching exprlences in her unique interpretations.

Her way to get rapport with the audience is of the greatest simplicity. She does" not abuse the effects which often are the vogue, of the celebrated opera stars. She does not exert the smiling which consciously is applied by the prima-ddnnas of the stage. When she smiles, she does it because she feels so. When she , gets serious or sad, " is because this feeling comes up from the depth of her souL She is always the friend of' the people, and: it seems this young woman must be a

She has not forgotten that about fifteen years ago, as a very young girl, together with millions of us, she lost her h o m e l a n d and. crossed, as a Jewish refugee, the :•: German-French border to escape the Nazis. She found shelter for many years in England before she came to the United States.

A True Personality •.-.-.

The gruesome cxpricnces of this miserable past, however, helped : Martha' Schlamme to deepen her Inner feeling and to become a. great artist of expression.

Never has a Jewish audience in Omaha been so lastingly impressed than with this simple and true personality, I am convinced that everybody that heard Martha Schlamme'S concert is hoping for her re-engaRement in Omaha.

We hope that then those people, old and young, who were absent , this time, will appear in such numbers that the house will be ; packed. It would be proof of the appreciation of the exquisite cul- ' tural performances which are offered by the "Center Concert and Lecture Series." ,

brad Is Irrigable New York (JTA)—Israel's first land survey, a three-year project completed recently, reveals that the country possesses approximately 1,300,000 acres—about one-fourth of Israel's total land area— of potentially irrigable land, it was reported by the Jewish 'Agency here. This figure substantially exceeds previous estimates.

Some 2,375,000 acres were surveyed by aerial photography and ground crews. The area involved • stretched from the northern border to a point some eight miles south of Beersheba. The. remaining 2,750,000 acres represent the arid portion of the Negev which is considered to have very limited immediate agricultural potential.

"Experts estimate that Israel'* known water resources could enable the irrigation of 1,000,000 acres. About 125,000 acres are currently under irrigation. This would make it possible for Israel to feed a population of 4,000,000 producing sufficient quantities of all required staples except wheat and meat," the Jewish Agency report says. "The country also possesses 475,000 acres suitable for pasturage and another 225,000 acres which could serve for both pasturage and afforestation. This acreage could support enough cattic to produce 10,000 tons of meat per year."

Question: Why is the statement repeated three times?

Answer: Many things are repeated three times for the sake oil emphasis. Some claim that the three times may represent the works of heaven, the works of earth and the works of man, indicatinR some sort of unity of purpose between them. two decades later in Das Judenstaat.

Ruth Brown One of the proud claims ot Hungarian Jews is that they have madean epic delicacy of a famous Russian-Jewish pastry—the immortal strudel. Their claims have been tastily affirmed by thousands of New Yorkers, who flock daily to the four pastry shops of the Arthur Altman family to buy the family best seller—golden flaky strips of strudel.

Like to many talcs of Immigrants who made the American dream come true, the Altman strudel saRa Is one that dates back to the 1029 depression. The Altmans settled in Passaic where Mr. Altman started n pastry shop.

Business was good and getting better and the future looked bright.

Then the worldwide storm of the depression struck the Altmans, and they were foccd to close the business.

• Strode! Store Mrs. Altman, who had learned the techniques of Hungarian pattry making from her mother in Budapest, had always made strudel for her family and friends. When the family moved to Manhattan, they decided to go back Into the pastry business but this time with the idea of testing Whether the complements lavished on Mrs. Altman's strudel would pay off in sales to the general public.

They rented a store, placed several pans of Mrs. Altman's apple strudel In the window nnd waited for business. They nold out every bit of the delicacy the first time, and Mrs. Altman has since made a lot of strudel. Not only do appreciative New Yorkers, Jewish and non-Jcwi:;h, flock to the four stores, two of them in the roaring garment district of mid-manhattcn, but the Altmans also do a flourishing mail order trade to strudel devotees as far away as Miami nd Hollywood.

Wonderful Vsrlely The strudel offered by the Altmans comes in n wonderful variety theese, nut, poppl cccd, peach, cherry, huckleberry nnd even— in the winter—kraut strudel, But the best seller is still the apple strudct which launched the Altmnn enterprise. The recipe is a private one but any baker who hao ever chewed a sample acn guess— not too much pastry and make it generously rich.

At this stage of the Altman busl-

"A magnificent vocal ensemble, whose singing suggests the qualities of their own Philharmonic Orchestra," said The Scotsman, the Edinburgh newspaper, of their performance at the Edinburgh Festival.

The program Sunday night will consist of works from the great choral literature of the world, sung In modern evening dress, typical Viennese music by Schubert, Strauss, etc., performed in Old Viennese attire, and a collection of Austrian folk-songs and even yodeling songs, alone in Tyrol costume.

Tickets can still be obtained at Hospe Piano Co.

Each store is presided over by an Altman—one by papa Altman, one by Mrs. Altman, one by daughter Adelc and one by son Alfred. The son also serves as production manager for the Altman kitchen in his store, although Mrs. Altman is a frequent visiting inspector.

Some claims have been advanced that the Altmans have a monopoy "on Hungarian strudel in a city where the delicacy prospers as nowhere else in the world. If It is, It's not the kind of a monopoly likely to get sharp looks from the Department of Justice. The trustbusters are probably included among Altman customers.

Dr. Waksman Recalls Talmudic Training New York (WNS)—Dr. Salman Waksman, discoverer of streptomycin and Nobel Prize winner, told a large audience that the study of Talmud in his early years influenced his scientific future.

Acccpting'the Justice Brandels Medal awarded him by the Jewish Forum, currently celebrating the' 35th anniversary of publication, the renowned scientist: declared: •"Until .the age of 17,1 was steeped in the Hebraic,. especially Talmudic, tradition. Educated In the traditional heder, followed by private tutors and rabbis, I assidulously studied the Bible and its numerous commentaries. This body of knowledge comprised certain fundamental principles that impressed me particularly.,. I could almost follow these as continuous threads throughout, the whole of Hebraic learning, beginning with the fiery words of Moses as tho Lawgiver, to those of the great Talmudic and' postTalmudlc scholars such as Joshua Ben Sirach and, finally, to the wisdom of the Second Moses, known as Malmonedes."

Dinah Shore: "The kind of reference book that ought to sell in Hollywood is a "Who's Whose."

Bible Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in. his own eyes.

Who can say: "I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my .sin?"

Even a fool, when he boldeth" his peace, Is counted wise and he that ehuttcth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding.

Talmud Rabbi J o c h a n a n said: "The hearts ot tho first sages were a* broad as the gate of the Warn (20 cubits), and that of the later, sages were as broad as the gate of Heichal (10 cubits), but our hearts) are as narrow as the eye of a very fine needle." * ' A pot belonging to partners i* neither cold nor hot.

Rabbi Acha said: "It is revealed and known to Him who spoke and created the world, that there was; none like Rabbi Meir in his generation (in wisdom and learning).

Why then did -they not determine the Halacha (law) according to his opinion? Because his colleagues were unable to fathom his profound conclusions. We were taught that his name was not Rabbi Mclr but Rabbi Mehorai, but he was called Rabbi Melr, because he brightened the eyes of1 the wise with his words ('Meir means 'bright')."

Administration To Be Evaluated The Jewish Community Center's Young Adult Club will present the second of its series of stimulating and thought provoking programs entitled American Film Forum this Sunday evening at 8 p. m.

This program is a hovel method of discussing tho current political scene. Each program presents a 20-minutc film in which two outstanding speakers debate the topic under discussion. Following the film a discussion leader is chosen and the group follow up with questions suggested by the film, The topic for Sunday night will bo "An Evaluation of the Elsenhower Administration." Sen, Geo. A. Smathers of Florida, a Democrat and former Sen. Harry P. Cain of Washington, a Republican" will be the discussants on film with Marquis Childs, well known, columnist as moderator.

Everyone is invited to attend and take part in the discussion. , "The industry cannot go on ai it has," says Zanuck. "There Is no in-between in today's movies.'

Pictures arP either terrific hits or they are flops. And the few hits that emerge each year cannot continue to carry an entire studio's annual output. We have placed all of our eggs in the Cinemascope basket. Cinemascope is synonymous with showmanship."

J. van Jlcuvun Goedhart, the Dutchman who is the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, was the voice of conscience reminding the delegates of their responsibility for these unfortunate people. Ever since the great International Refugee Organization was folded up (it resettled more than a million displaced persons Including thousands of Jews), Dr. Gocdhart has been struggling to look after the rest with a few assistants and little money.
