The Trend in American Jewry Recently we picked up an item in the London Jewish Chronicle giving the substance of an address delivered in London by Cecil Both, noted British-Jewish historian who knows American Jewry well, on the subject, "The Future of American Jewry.'

Predictions for the future are valaahlt ;a»ofar u they indicate eertain trends in a community. However, the question always arises whether the assessment of present-day trends in a community is correct According to the Jewish Chronicle. Mr. Both said that "the future of New York Jewry was assured by the mgthetnatieal fact that there were 2,000,000 persons, who formed about a quarter of the city's population. Tbat meant that the great solvent of Jewish life—intermarriage—-could only have a minor validity; there." Further on the news item says; "His picture of the future of American Jewry was that apart from the sociological group, which was certain to maintain its identity in New York, Judaism in a recognizable and organized form was going to continue to exist throughout the country and would evolve its own forms which would shock the founders of Beform Judaism in America and Germany. The new development of American Judaism was going to be a long way removed from the ideal of the original founders of American Reform," On the other hand, Mr. Both thought that the laws of koshrut would be entirely abandoned." 'They were being aban- Capital Spotlight doned," he said, "outside the great centres, as were the tradition* of the Sabbath."

While the Committee's current report seeks to brand "the ADL as an organization seeking to Instill a leftist "indoctrination" In youth, it fails to say that the ADL Is working for better Americanism by promoting religious and racial amity.

It Is a matter of record that many of Die ADL's pamphlets expose Communism. But the Committee did not bothervto mention this.

h People Seldom Are Problem Drinkers Jewish people rarely become alcoholic because drinking li part of their religious ritual and because the pressures operating on them as a minority group make far sobriety. This is what Charles R. Snyder, a Yale Sociologist, told a meeting of the Harvard Department of Health.

Jewish people begin drinking barly In life in connection with their religious rituals. In addition, their drinking is done in the fam' ily. Thus, through their traditions, jew* are systematically socialized to moderate drinking and sobriety.

And as members of a minority group, they tend to guard against behavior, like excessive drinking, that would act to their discredit, he stated.

"At participation in Orthodox ceremonies and rituals diminishes, ' Jewish people tend to -react differently to the patterns of tho society in which they live and the pressure for sobriety relaxes. In other word*, as they become less religious, they accept the pattern of drinkin*v intoxication and aK hohollsm found in the wider todety," continued the Sociologist The negligible amount of alcoholism among Jews to significant, according to Snyder, becanso

Facts Forum Under Fire

WuslmiKlon (JTA) — A suggestion to investigate Fuels Forum, a tax-exempt organization which sponsors u weekly radio and television discus<iion program long a subject of controversy, was made here thin week at a public hearing conducted by the House Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations. The recommendation was made by Rep, Wayne L. Hayes of Ohio, a committee member. , H. L. Hunt, Texas oil millionaire and supporter of Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, who sponsors Facts Forum, recently denied charge* that it was anti-Semitic, pro-Fascist, anti-Catholic, anti-Negro and anti-labor. He sold the organization was established three years ago "to promote and preserve freedom" and enjoys tax exemption as a non-profit national educational group. Five radio and television programs of news discussions are now sponsored by Facts Forum.

Israel'* "new customers"

Panorama

By DAVID SCHWARTZ (Copyright, 1954, JTA) Congressman Celler of New York has been telling the old Disraeli story about McCarthy, Disraeli was once asked the difference between misfortune and calamity.

"It's this way," said Plsraell. "If Gladstone (the leader of the Opposition) w e r e to fall in the Thames that would be a misfortune. If someone were to fish him out that would be a calamity."

Celler substitutes McCarthy for Gladstone and the Potomac for the Thames.

It's interesting to speculate what would happen if McCarthy did fall into the .Potomac. Personally we don't think he would care to be fished out, until he had captured some of the salmon. What were they doing with that pink color, ho would demand.

Ben Gurion ardently wants peace with the Arabs but he told the Israelis tho other day that Israel owes a great deal of Its development to Arab opposition. If the Arabs had not stopped the Jews from using the port of Jaffa, tho Jews would not have had to develop their own longshoremen.

Jewish agriculture, too, minus Arab opposition, would not have gone so far as It has, if the Mufti had not tried to stop a moderate Jewish immigration, the Jewish State would not have come into being. Certainly not as quickly.

And now the Arab opposition Is leading to strengthening Israel In many ways. It Is causing Israel to explore the European and world markets for trade instead of relying solely on neighboring markets, ns would have been the case if the Arabs were peaceful."

Secretary Ickes In the first volume of hLi Memoirs just published tells the behind-the-scenes story of tho appointment of Felix Frankfurter to the Supreme Court. He says the rich Jews opposed the ap-

pointment. The some thing happened when Louis D. Brandels was named by President Wilson. The millionaire Jews are always only Interested—not in personalities or movements—but in pure Judaism.

Reminds me of the story of the young rabbi who got a pulpit In Long bland He was warned by the president of the synagogue not to sermonize on Jewish education, Sabbath observance and cognate topics.

"What may I speak about?" asked the rabbi.

"Just speak on Judaism, Judaism,'* said the president Chlllk Welzmann, the brother of the famous Chalm who is now In America, has been telling people here that "there is now the beginning of a smell of prosperity In Israel." Hope the smell Is as good as that of orange blossom time In Israel. When I was there—a long time ago—riding from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, the fragrance of tho blossoms was Intoxicating.

The latest wheeze from Israel, they tell me. Is tbe one about the Israeli soldier of the camouflage corn* who complained to his commanding officer. He had been ordered to disguise himself as a tree.

"It was all right," he said, "when young men and women sat beside me and whispered sweet nothings.

I could take it when they caressed one another. But when they started carving their Initials in my britches . . . "

Israel Exports To U. S. Up in Amount, Kind New York (JTA)—Israel's ex* ports in 1953" were the highest since the establishment of the Jewurn State in 1948, Consul Yehuda Levit, In charge of economic affairs at the Israeli Consulate in New York, declared today at the opening of the Israel section'at the International Import Show here.

Diamonds, Furniture Diamonds, cut and polished, are still Israel's highest export item to tbe United States, Levit said.

"For the first time in the United States today, exclusive, modern, custom-built furniture from Israel, with artistic individual designs, hand-sculptured , or painted by Israel's foremost artists, have now broadened our range of goods fn this country."

Israel's goods in the United States Include brass, bronze, copper manufactures, ceramics, wine and brandy, chocolates, candles, marmalade, citrus by-products, fashions, plywood, glass, scientific instruments, watches, leather 1 ware, musical instruments and other items.

Export* Up 70 Percent Jerusalem was reported today that Israel's industrial exports for the month of January, 1954, Increased 70 per cent over slmillar exports for January, 1953. Industrial exports for January of this year were $4,700,000 as compared to $2,800,000 In January, 1953.

Total exports of all kinds of goods this January came to $17 million.

Israel's chief customer for industrial goods, exclusive of diamonds, during this period was Turkey, which bought 43 per cent of the total.

"Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in Ascalon, says the Bible. But Ascilon today has the blfjgost prestresscd concrete pipe factory in the world, and very much has been published about it.

And finally "Tel" in Hebrew means mound or mountain as in Tel Aviv which means spring mountain. The name Is a symbolic translation of Herzl's Old-New Land. What can be younger than Pinky Lee: "Many men think spring or older than a mountain? they are handing a girl a line Maybe the fact that it's spring when they are merely being roped In."—(JTA) will explain this column.

The phone that came to the accident Driving along Route 12 to Waterville, telephone installer Lon Chappie slowed his truck when he saw the group of c a n stopped up ahead. Then he recognized the grim scene —an accident. Two twisted vehicles blocked the highways men were bending over the victims at the roadside. ^ As Chappie pulled over, a man ran toward him. "Gave 'em all first aid—but the woman and the boy need • doctor fast," he said anxiously. "Will you g o . . . " | "Better yet, I'll call," the telephone man interrupted him. Swiftly, he buckled on his safety belt and "climbers"/ grabbed his lineman's test set and went up a nearby phone pole. Clipping his telephone to the wires, he put through the call. In a surprisingly short time a doctor and «n: ambulance arrived.

4 "Just got here in time," the ambulance driver told Chappie later. "They're lucky that you—and your tele-! phone —came to the accident!" '«• Names have been changed, but this story is true. Lon Chappie, the resourceful installer, might be working in your neighborhood today—for this incident is a typical, example of the value of telephone service and the helpful-, ness of the men and women behind it.

To provide valuable telephone service, to pay good wages to workers like Lon Chappie, to train and equip them well, your telephone company must be financially healthy. That way we can continue to maintain and improve telephone service . . . and continue to make your telephone worth more than it costs.

Jerusalem (WNS)—Violent Incidents and tension on the IsraelJordan borders continued during the week, at the end of which the Jordan-Israeli Mixed Armistice Commission, which the Israelis are boycotting, condemned Israel for two truce violations in which 'our Jordanians were killed.

The two resolutions adopted by the Mixed Armistice Commision blamed Israeli forces for opening fire on Jordanian farmers in the vicinity of the villages of Falama and Qualqllya, both In the Tulkarm district north of Jerusalem.

The Jerusalem Post this week called for the removal of Commander Hutchinson, chairman of the Armistice Commission, as a preliminary for Israel's return to the Commission. Israeli delegates walked out Mar. 23 when the Commission failed to condemn Jordan for the killing of eleven Israelis in a bus at Scorpion Pass.

Essential Wafer Planning in Israel Aided by Bond Issue Water, indispensable In all plans for a self-sufficient Israel of the future, seems to be no problem at all at irrigation and power developments financed by investment capital derived from the State of Israel Bond Issue.

Israel's greatest task is not where to find water, since the precious liquid can be located hi the northern plains and hills, in Tel Aviv nnd Jerusalem, and even in the Negev, near Beersheba, according to engineers of Mekorotb Ltd., which is distributing water to all parts of the young nation with the assistance of Israel Bond proceed*. What Israel needs, they point out, Is nn effective method of collecting this overabundance of water before it dries up or flows off into unproductive channels.

Rain Distribution Actually, there Is more rain on the average in Jerusalem than there Is in most of the major cities of Northern Europe. However, most of it falls in a few months, and all the rest of the year re mains hot, dry and .eunny.

Two o t h e r peculiarities of Israel's rain distribution are as follows: A tremendous variation from year to year, so that 300 mil' llmeters (about 11.8 inches) falls one year and 800 millimeters the next, and a wide variation from north to south,, with the average hi the former 800 to 1,000 millimeters and in the latter ISO to 250. : Israel is doing its Utmost to correct the uneven distribution of nature. Local and regional water works will supply about 800,000,000 cubic meters this year, compared with a capacity of 300,000,000 when the State was established i n 1 9 4 8 , " .•'.•."•-.•. ":. •-,'• •. ; :: . ;':. •,-.

175,000 Acres / • •..:

Approximately 175,000 acres will be irrigated this year, compared with 57,500 acres in 1948. Most of these gains have been accomplished by the drilling of -wells and the building of short pipelines and pumping stations with the aid of Israel Bond funds.

Larger projects are in the making. One is the Jordan River diversionary canal, which, when completed, will produce hydroelectric power. The plans calls for the utilization of a small valley near the river, which is flanked by hills and almost barren of trees.

Lake Huleh, a triangle of water extending a mile or two on each side, lies at the bottom of a ravine, and out of it, to the south, runs the Jordan.

Israel recently completed a new concrete water-gate atop the valley that will be used to allow the river waters to run into a great ditch, just about the width of the river, which runs far down the river canyon and shaves off part of a hillside on the way.

Enflneerlnr Plan The engineering plan Is simple

The land falls from a height of about 170 feet above sea level to less than 600 feet below sea level at the Sea of Galilee, eight mile* downstream. The plan is to lead the Jordan waters through thil . canal and have them fall Into a powerhouse, then to return thenf to the Sea of Galilee.

In the process, Israel hopes to produce 180,000,000 kilowatts of power a year, or one-fifth of its annual needs. Later the plan is to» use this same water for the irrigation of Northern Israel and obtain power from a much larger project, the canalizing of Mediterranean waters across North Israel and dropping them into the Dead Sea' about 1,200 feet below sea level.

Hate Tonnel Near the village of Bosh Pinna, a huge tunnel baa been built with Israel Bond funds, The tunnel is used to house a powerful Diesel engine room whose purpose Is to pump water from the Malaha Springs to much of Upper Galilee.

The station is situated hi a cave simply because it Is near the borer. Israel learned during the fighting six years ago that protected water supplies were the foundation of security along the frontier, - Down along the road from Tel Aviv to Rehovoth, groves of glistening dark-green trees decked with bright oranges can be seen, as a result of irrigation projects built with Israel Bond proceeds.

From Rehovoth to Beersheba. wheat fields similar to those in Nebraska can be found.

Concrete Pipes In other sections of Israel, concrete pipes can be seen. These pipes are part of the first stage in the construction of two pipelines that wlU bring the waters of the Yarkon Bivcr, inland from Tel Aviv, down to the dry lands of the Negev.

At one of the Arab villages In the Negev, Israel recently completed a large concrete catch-bash) in an artificial river bed that runs through the area. Near this reservoir in the making, Arab farmer* use camels to pull plows, while their families live hi tents.

On a hill close-by is a relatively new kibbutz that does its plowing by.tractor. An observer can see that water is equally prized

by Arabs and Israelis, by farmers otthc ancient style and the modern.
