world"
To help combat anti-Semitism
and at the same time evoke an
appreciation of the Jew, Epstein
said the historical and cultural
background of Israels develop
ment and struggle for independ-
ence will be dramatized for the
American people with specific
emphasis on Jewish contributions
to world civilization. The League
will point up the accomplish
ments and philosophy of Israel
as they are paralleled in the his
tory of America.
In answer to a query during
the question period, Epstein said
the professional anti-Semites
were using the state Of Israel as
springboard for a new anti
Semitic line: The Jews now
have a place to go = send them
back there He also mentioned
that there was an alarming lack
of understanding on Israel and
Zionism on the part of some
Christian clergymen and INTEL
ectuals.
Other speakers appearing on
the panel were Arthur C. A. Liv-
erhant, counsel to the Israeli
Mission in the United States, who
said that Israel Sin her relations
with other nations will endeavor
to show how nations should live
together" and DR.. Richard Pur-
cell, professor of history at Cath
Ole University, who said that
Israel has held the torch or re-
ligious light throughout the
ages, standing for the rights OF
man."

Birth.
Speaking at a What Does Is
rael Mean to Democracy" panel
under B'nai Birth auspices, Ep-
stein said that American Jews
had received a spiritual and psy-
Geological uplift from the way IN
which their fellow Jews are
building a democratic state IN
the Middle East. This great ven
ture, he said, is helping to dis
solve the Illustration and insecur-
ity which centuries Of anti-Sem-
itisn had imposed upon Jews.
BY contributing materially and
spiritually toward the birth and
development of the worlds
youngest democracy, Epstein
said, American Jewry has ex-
perienced keener and fuller ap-
probation of its own democratic
heritage. This will help the eff
forts of American Jews as they
seek to contribute their share
toward the enrichment and eX-
pansion of our own democracy,
he said.
Jews will continue to strive for
democracy the world over, for
in so doing they strive for the
fulfillment of the fundamental
Judaic law of the fatherhood of
God and the brotherhood of man,
which has its fullest expression
in a democratic society.
Discussing ADDS policy on Is
rael, Epstein said the League will
seek to interpret Jewish per-
Torrance within Israel so as to
make these contributions better

Contingent Of
Released POW's

JERUSALEM - Lining the
streets of Jerusalem, crowds here
greeted enthusiastically the last
contingent of Jewish prisoners
of-War released early this month
from prison camps in Mafrak,
Transjordan. The ex-POW's
who had numbered 600 Israeli
soldiers, drove up to the Jerusa-
lem Synagogue where they cere-
moniously turned over their Sef-
er Torah to synagogue officials.
Among the former POWs were
seven defenders of the destroyed
religious colony Kfar Etzion, and
the old city of Jerusalem. They
were welcomed by the chief rab-
bis, the synagogue wardens, and
the military rabbinnate of the
Jerusalem area.
At later reception, Aloof Da-
vid Shalteil, former commanding
officer of the Jerusalem area,
told the veterans: 81 am proud
to have been your commanding
officer. Your gallant stand saw
